Never fall in love with somebody you actually love.

Oh, that's a point - Jackal pointed out Agent Paul Thingies walk to me. He has 'A Walk'. Seriously. It's ruined the show for me 'cos now all I can see is The Walk. So I thought I'd share the pain.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Talking of IMDB accuracy...

If you know who did you should update it, Kevin.

Yah. There's so much wrong on the IMDB database for Dollhouse it's difficult to know where to start.

Tim wrote and directed episode 12.

I start where I notice it.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Seems logical.

Otherwise I gotta go with, it's on the internet so it must be true.

ita, Bummer if that other bit is true.

From Television Without Pity's recap: "THIS was the episode, you guys. Dark, twisty, and hilarious all at once."

I almost feel bad for not liking this episode. Almost.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Also Echo's outfit in this recent ep was so bad it was distracting.

I know! That neckline was like something off a bad Project Runway challenge.

the only people who came out of it during the action were Sam and Boyd.

I'm handwaving that Victor and Dominic and so forth had a lot more physical contact with dosed up people while they were rounding up and so got a higher dose themselves, and that the dose that Topher gave Mellie was largish also so he and Adelle were likewise affected for longer.

It doesn't make sense to me to Doll up Sam - seems like he would be more useful working in R&D or something, brain intact. I suppose they could pop out his memories and skills and mix them up with someone a little more docile and have a Active do the actual research, but that seems pretty inefficient.

Who knows how brainy he actually was, though? I don't figure that Rossum is recruiting from...huh, I assumed it was undergrad, but who knows? Seems like they'd be aiming for post-post-grad, though, and Sam just seemed younger than that.

I got the impression he was at least a grad student and I don't know where I got that. I may be conflating a bunch of information - didn't he get hold of the sample by working for Rossum?
