Quote of the Day: "Mark Watches"
Mark Watches is a website where Mark watches full runs of TV shows and reviews them. Recently he started watching Dollhouse -- one of my all-time favorite shows. When he reviewed episode 1.05 (True Believer), he liked the show, but was yearning for something more than the self-contained plots that the first five episodes had.
I thought to myself, "Dude, just wait for the next episode. Episode 1.06 will make your brain explode." And, indeed, it did.
From his review of "Man on the Street":
THE PLOT. OH MY GOD, THE PLOT TWISTS.
Honestly, there’s so much to like about “Man on the Street,” but the story really comes together in this episode. All of this happens IN ONE STORY:
* Ballard meets Caroline/Echo.
* Ballard definitively learns that the Dollhouse is 100% real.
* Ballard FIGHTS Echo.
* Echo reveals that there’s an insider within the Dollhouse willing to be a whistleblower for Ballard because THERE IS SOMETHING WORSE THAN THE DOLLHOUSE IN THE WORKS.
* We learn there are 20 (!!!!!!) Dollhouses around the world. TWENTY!!!!
* Hearn is murdered.
* By Mellie.
* WHO WAS AN ACTIVE THE WHOLE FUCKING TIME.
* NO WHAT THE FUCK, SHE IS SO GREAT AND I LOVED HER AND SHE WAS JUST GETTING INTO ALL THIS CUTENESS WITH BALLARD WHY WOULD YOU DO THIS TO ME
* oh god SHOULD I JUST ASSUME EVERYONE ON THIS SHOW IS A FUCKING ACTIVE. THIS IS SCARING ME.
* BALLARD IS SUSPENDED FROM THE F.B.I. HE’S GOING TO LET THE DOLLHOUSE WIN. OH MY GOD.
