I've put up a clip from next weeks episode here: [link] . Pretty obviously, spoiler.
Faith: A kid. Angel's got a kid. Wesley: Connor. Faith: A teenage kid born last year. Wesley: I told you, he grew up in a hell dimension. Faith: Right. And what, Cordelia spent her last summer as… Wesley: A divine being. Faith: Uh-huh. Can I just ask--What the hell are you people doing?

Never fall in love with somebody you actually love.

Always Anti-fascist!
If I found out I were dying, and it were possible, I'd do that. Of course, I'd be worried they'd only use the icky parts.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!
had to watch o Hulu, because I forgot to record. I think so far I liked this episode best, more because of what seems to happening in the Dollhouse. The actual story was missing something -- like , I had no idea what the cult was actually about.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I was kind of overly distracted by the fact that her name was Esther Carpenter...

I liked the "...and the message is, 'Move your ass!'" and I liked when she just hauled off and hit the dude who wanted to stay and burn. It's... I'm assuming that either her actual personality or some imprinting takes hold when she gets her back up against the wall?
I liked this one pretty well, too. This one and the caper one so far.
Man reaction. Oh, dear.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I've since seen the bad ATF agent in two things since the Dollhouse ep, and he was skank in both of them.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand
How can Not!Warren even identify and utilize the parts of an imprinted consciousness that will allow Actives to perform as high-class hookers if he's as arrested in dealing with sex as his conversation with the doctor demonstrated?

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
Sitting at a computer manipulating brain waves or whatever is probably easier for him than talking to a woman who is his equal.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

He wasn't skank in Joan of Arcadia.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"
Who did he play in JoA? He looked familiar, but I kept trying not to see him as BatManuel, who is on Lost, anyway.
Pretty much everyone in the plot was in shades of grey -- the cult wasn't capital-E Evil, the ATF leader was crooked but On A Mission, et cetera. Hard to sympathize.
