She's just a girl.

Dollhouse, Week 5

In brief...

Thank goodness for Tim Minear. I missed you.

'Sneizure.' HA! I was not expecting that.

Topher must own futures in sweater vests.

More Amy Acker, plz.

Not that Eliza did a bad job (on the contrary, she was way impressive here), but the Topher/NotFred/Erection story was much more fun - Topher and NotFred have great comedic chemistry.

I'm kinda ready for Tahmoh to go, as he's become the Morena Baccarin of this show: pretty, wooden acting, boring cliched character introduced too early in the overall arc. I might actually be intrigued with Ballard if he were introduced this ep, just driving up at the end to ask the ATF agent questions. Wha?! The FBI is looking for Echo? How could this be?... and then we find out next week or later about the mysterious envelopes he's been receiving and that he's been meeting with the GangsterDoll and that he kickboxes...

Evil Reed Diamond. I did not expect him to do the (non)extraction himself. Evil, indeed, but kinda stupid. Why didn't pack a silencer and make sure she was dead? You travel all that way and don't seal the deal? I mean, the ATF already had video of the cult leader threatening her with a gun, so EvilReed wouldn't be implicated if she was found with a bullet in her brain.

Also: the blind savior wore heels to her baptism into an Amishy-attired cult? Oh show - you never fail to do the inexplicable to take me out of an emotional moment...

'Take the stairs.' Bish plz, you're so almost fired...maybe. (I think EvilReed has connections to the senior partners. It's the only explanation for why Adele hasn't gotten rid of him. If she had a spaceship and an airlock, he'd so be out of the picture by now...)

PATTON OSWALT!!!!!!!11 (Please tell me he's a Doll that kicks Ballard's ass...)
