Episode Summary: | Seriously one of the biggest surprises I've gotten from a show in recent memory.
I'm still reeling at how amazingly Dollhouse hid its biggest secret from us in plain sight the whole time. This show has surprised me before, but never like this.
You know, since the beginning of the show, Boyd always stuck out to me. He didn't really seem to fit in. He seemed to have morals and he didn't seem to really want anything from anyone. He was always the number two guy. Always supportive. Always the friend. The only redeemable character in the show.
Or so we thought.
The best surprises are the ones you don't see coming but make perfect sense in hindsight. This is one of them.
Finding out Boyd was the big bad, the mastermind, the founder of Rossum, the one behind it all... I was completely floored. It made perfect sense. We still knew next to nothing about his past after all. As Ballard said at the beginning of the season, "If you're pointing fingers, you should be looking at Boyd. I know why I'm here."
All this time we thought he was just supporting everyone, but really, he was manipulating everyone. EVERYONE. And we never noticed because he seemed to be so true blue. We assumed he had the best intentions. He stopped a rapist, save Echo on a number of occasions, always seemed to be on our side. We wanted to know his past, but it never seemed vitally important. There were always bigger questions.
Except there weren't.
On top of that, I was also surprised that Bennet was killed. Though I really shouldn't have been. I mean, Joss always kills the love interest. Wash, Penny, Ms. Calendar, Angel (sort of), Renee, Tara, Anya, Kitty Pryde... It always happens. I should have seen it coming. But once again, I didn't. I guess I didn't expect Whiskey to be the one to do it and I guess I was also just happy that Topher got the girl.
So even though technically not a lot happens in this episode, the few things that do are frankly mind-blowing. It has motivated me to rewatch the entire series to look for hints.
I am so sad the series is being canceled. |

Episode Summary: | An insurance investigator, William Byfield, is found dead, apparently having suffocated from exhaust fumes piped into his car, which suggests suicide. However, on closer examination, Harry suspects he may have died from cyanide poisoning. Byfield's replacement, Clare Ambler, believes his death may be linked to his latest investigation involving the death of Stephen Connelly, and Leo is worried that he has no recollection of the case as he was apparently the pathologist who did his post-mortem. The case becomes more complicated as Harry meets up with grief councillor Rebecca, who he worked with before, who turns out to be Connelly's widow, while Ambler convinces the police to investigate Leo for fraud. With Leo's career at risk, it becomes ever-more crucial to get to the bottom of the case. |
