Oh, my god, what the shit ya'll! That was boss, man! Perfection, utter perfection. Witness the exchange below!
Topher: What are you doing?
Adelle: Doing?
Topher: Besides being ...
Adelle: Being what? Sarcastic? Controlling? British?
Topher: It's an animal.
Adelle: Where?
Topher: No, the word.
Adelle: Still, you have to admit, I am very British. I don't say hard R's.
Topher: You know what I like? Brown sauce. What's it made of? Science doesn't know!
Adelle: It's made of brown.
Topher: Bro-own. Mined from the earth by the hard scrabbled brown miners of North Brownerton
Adelle: Oh my god. I find lentils totally incomprehensible.
Topher: Hee hee hee hee ... That's got nothing to do with the drug. Which means our problems are huge and indomitable
Adelle: Oooh, I could eat that word. Or a crisp? Do you have any crisps?
Topher: You haven't seen my Drawer of Inapropriate Starches!
Adelle: Oh my god, I'm having such a terrible day.
I mean, Oh. my. god. This was like the best and the worse episode of Dollhouse to watch when crazy high, man. It was so surreal. And that couch Adelle was lying on (rawr) was the exact same couch that I was lying on, and I felt like we were all in the same room, lying on that couch together, firin' up the hookah, eating too many cookies and laughing at everything. We totally would have cuddled, too. Totally.
Firstly, I have to say that I pretty much love Adelle and Olivia Williams. I want to take Olivia Williams behind the middle school and get her pregnant! She is so much wacky fun. I loved her attempts to get over that banister. And the hint of Adelle bra was much appreciated (as was that trampoline scene "Say 'Hi' from me!").
Seriously, she and Topher were comedy gold together. I could watch Topher and Adelle as their wacked stoned adventures every week. Brilliant. But brilliant. I also loved that scene where they were swaying together listening to Boyd play the piano through the phone, it got me, it got me right here *points to heart*
Topher: I have another call! I have another call! I have a better call! *clicks* Boyd! Did you find Echo?
Adelle wrestles telephones away from him.
Adelle: Boyd ... *chagrined look* Did you find Echo?
Boyd: I've got it under control Ms. Dewitt.
Adelle: Is Echo contained?
Boyd: Just listen.
Walks over to a piano and sits down. Props phone up and begins to play a classical song.
Adelle gasps, looks at the phone. Topher stares at it. They huddle together.
Adelle gets shivers, and giddy, overwhelmed. Topher smiles. It really is very beautiful.
They listen together in rapt glory, and Adelle looks like Elaine Cassidy (aka Maud from Fingersmith) a whole lot.
The exchange (above), when Adelle and Topher began to lose it and spiraled into crazyville, made total sense to me. Watching this I seriously wanted to go to there, and hang with them!
November: Is she what you think about when you're on me?
Adelle's and Topher's eyes bug out.
November: There are three flowers in the vase...
Adelle's 'Oh shit ... Mommy!' face owned the world.
Adelle: I'm your superior!
Topher: In every possible way.
...Also, I really want to know what happened to Topher's pants.
Also, I LOVED Dominic. I was dying at his spazzy movements and general girl on crutches at the wrong party mopeyness. His apologizing to Echo was very interesting. But I'm in no state to analyze it.
"Yeah right, four hours ago you were talking about how much you loved applesauce."
"Oh man, it's so heavy. It makes my arm tired."
"It was so heavy. Everything's heavy."
"I'm really sorry for trying to burn you alive. That was really not cool."
"Feels Nice...like a kitty!"
"Again, sorry about the burning to death. "
Also, Echo was an anime character! Seriously, Echo's outfit was super awesome anime, and scene of her riding in on the awesome red motorcycle in her psuedo-school girl outfit was awesomeness personified.
I don't actually remember a lot of this episode. I'm going to have to watch it again. I remember there was some stuff with Caroline, but I couldn't follow her storyline AT ALL. There was too much talking. And that opening was really long. It was 13 minutes long. We counted. That's JJ Abrhams, "Alias" still shit.
And any coherence I once had is gone now, and my stomach hurts (rice cakes followed by chocolate frosting from the can wasn't such a good idea, even though it seemed like a good idea in the middle of a David Bowie dance sequence from Labyrinth) so it's time to hit post ...
MANSIONS IN MY EYES!

Date: 2009-03-28 08:14 pm (UTC)lol! I know. "I could eat that word" is my new "he said that word like it was made out of milk chocolate". It's just sexy.
I'm a little late getting on the Adelle/Olivia train, but I'm so there now and I ain't ever getting off!
I'm just so glad they are giving her such good stuff to do. I was worried that she'd be criminally underused after the pilot, but it's clear that the team knows what an awesome and talented actress they have on their hands. I was really surprised and delighted by how good she was at the comedy, I've mostly only seen her in dramas.
LOL she totally was. I had a My-HiME moment when she pulled in on that motorcycle.
Yeah, I couldn't get over it. And then she went into the space age labs, and I was like "Anime character! It cannot be denied!" I kind of loved that outfit, although I have to wonder what was going on in the costuming department, lol
I would have loved to see her getting all messed up with Adelle and Topher.
This. That would have been awesome. Although I have to say the episode was so good, that I didn't even realize there was no Claire until after it was over. Still seeing her and Adelle jumping on the tramp together giving each other like high fives would have been awesome. Even awesomer, if Claire wanted to play doctor, and Adelle was her patient. Rawr.
Anyway next weeks episode looks awesome.
This. I cannot wait!
