fembuck | Dollhouse - 1x08

This episode was freaking amazing! This show is getting so very very good. I'm so happy!

First, Adelle was evil British lady hotness this episode. The total girl!wood she has for Caroline is also delicious. I don't know if Olivia Williams as any idea how

she has Adelle coming across for Caroline, but I hope so. Cause that means she's doing it on purpose, and will therefore continue to do so. OR, my own personal favorite theory, that Adelle really canonically does have girl!wood for Caroline (LET ME DREAM!!!)

Also, that shot with Adelle standing regally in the sunlight staring broodingly at the building was absolutely stunning! I can't wait until the screencaps come out for this episode.

2. CLAIRE!

I can't figure u out, gurl! But I am utterly and completely fascinated and compelled by you. Has Claire been drinking the kool-aid? Does she really think that making the dolls docile again is in their best interest, or is she running some kind of long term con?

I kind of hope that she's drinking the kool-aid, because I think that it would be fascinating to learn WHY she is there and how she can still believe after what happened with Alpha.

HOWEVER, I think that it's probably a long con. It can't be a coincidence that Caroline was able to find Paul's number in a file found in Claire's office. Claire KNEW what Caroline was likely to do, she proposed the plan and had been watching the Dolls enough to know what it was that they desired. As a doctor, it would also seem totally possible for her to have been able to meddle with Topher's imprint to have Echo deliver that secret message to Paul.

3. Mike was kind of a douche, but I liked him. November continues to bore me so much (unless there's a boob shot, which thankfully there are plenty of). Miracle Laurie has a bangin' body, but I don't think she's much of an actress (she has moments, for example her not giving a shit about the co-ed shower, but mostly she bores me. VICTOR+SIERRA 4 EVAH! They are too cute. The Echo/Sierra slasher in me, kind of wants Echo to be in Victor's place, but Victor and Sierra are too cute for me not to love them together. Seriously, Victor is the dreamiest dreamy who ever dreamied. Victor is the male Ivy Tamwood. I called it! He is delicious.

I love him, like James Franco loves pie! So good.

I liked Caroline better this episode than I did last episode. Last episode, like every time Caroline was on screen, I was like "Ugh. I so wouldn't hang out with you, face of Eliza Dushku or not." This episode I found her spunky and industrious, and a little less I DON'T EAT ANYTHING THAT ONCE HAD A FACE AND YOU SHOULDN'T EITHER ... HOOR!

Topher is spineless. I knew this. I relate to him. I would have begged like a baby and bartered for my life too. No heroics from me, I'm pretty coordinated, but that doesn't really help against bullets.

Was I the only one who giggled when Victor and Sierra disappeared into the Clothes Rack of Illicit Love, and then Echo and November disappeared into Clothes Rack of Crouched Down Suspiciously Close to Each Other While Gently Touching Each Others Shoulders? I don't care what was actually intended, I'm going to assume that Echo was taking care of November, just like Victor was taking care of Sierra because she is secretly in love with her!

Then someone could make of DVD of it and send it to Paul and he'd be all

Only Tahmoh would have his shirt off, cause it's written into his contract like that!

Dom continues to be such a magnificent bastard. "Don't think of them like children. Let of them as pets. If I child starts talking, you're proud. If your dog starts talking you get freaked out." LOL! Such a douchey thing to say, and yet it is a very effective analogy.

So, in conclusion. I love this fuckin' show! I can't wait until next week.
