Blog 13 Dollhouse s1e8

In this episode of Dollhouse, the employees take it to a whole new level.  Four dolls are given the opportunity to escape the Dollhouse and be free. But it all turns out to be a plan made up by the doctor and DeWitt in order to try and get the dolls to stop having reoccurring memories.  Echo, Victor, Sierra and November are the dolls that are having the most problems with their memories coming back.  So the Dollhouse decides that in order to get this to stop, they need to be able to go out in the real world and have closure to these memories.  It was nice to be able to see how these characters really act when they are not under the control of the Dollhouse.  Echo was so determined to be the hero and save everyone in the Dollhouse which doesn’t come as a surprise.  In all the other episodes, Echo always wants to help and try to save the day.  One line in this episode that I liked is when Echo was talking to Tropher and said how he is, “looking down on everyone, playing God.”  I never really thought about it like that but it makes sense.  Tropher has almost completely control over the dolls; he can make them into whatever he wants.  He is able to decide what their skills will be and what type of personalities they will have.  Echo then went on to say how bad the stuff they are doing is and how bad of people they are for doing it.  I wonder if all the stuff Echo said to him will have any effect on how he views his job and what he does to these people.
