'Do You Promise To Love Honor and Cherish Each Other For as Long as You Both Shall live'
Well do you? A lot of people seem to get asked that question on a regular basis these days. The answer is sometimes hesitant especially the 'For as long as you both shall live' bit.
It wasn't long before Echo's engagement involved getting married - or so far we've seen. I wonder how many times has Echo been married?
I actually believed this guy was crazy enough to fullfil his life long fantasy of being married to the love of his life and that he was actually part of the dollhouse, but it turned out to be all Paul Ballard's plan to bring down a mercenary by making Echo believe she was a cop partnered with Ballard for three years.
Did he really need that stick it note to remember how many years they were partners? And did he really need to listen into the 'Post-Wedding' activities? I find it strange that Ballard is working for the Dollhouse, is it all for Echo and his crazed obsession over her?

Joss Whedon’s Dollhouse is a show about human trafficking and sexual slavery. Its themes are dressed in a science-fiction setting and the Dollhouse itself is beautified with its exclusive spa décor, but the show’s themes are as prominent as they are in the movie Taken. Dollhouse, however, contains the intriguing element of consensual slavery, which is what the Dollhouse’s management assures people is their business. In spite of this dubious claim, the Dollhouse has in practice obtained their Actives through coercion and it remains an enterprise of evil.
“There’s only one reason someone would volunteer to be a slave is if they is one already. Volunteer. You must be out of your [expletive] mind.” –Interviewed black woman, episode “Man on the Street”
Before it can be known what the morality of the Dollhouse is, it first must be examined what the Dollhouse is allegedly offering. Consensual slavery appears at first to be an oxymoronic phrase, entirely incompatible with our view of the world. By its very nature, slavery is an involuntary practice, right?

Sometimes it takes a little crazy to truly spell Nuts and boy oh boy was Alpha missed here. Who knew out of all the tasks Victor could perform, he could also play crazy. Out of all the psycho Luney, Echo was the least believable, probably because Echo has taken on a personality of her own, even in her imprinted state she still goes back to Echo format.
At least we know for sure that Dr. Saunders is not forgotten and that DeWitt is probably making it her goal to get her back, but it isn't really her first priority.
Among the silly in 'Belle Chose' Victor's attempt to dance like a girl came off disturbing. He presented himself more like a man trying to dance like a girl as opposed to a girl dancing like a girl. Didn't he realize his change in body chemistry?
From the onset of 'Instinct' and Eliza Dushku's stellar performance, I expected 'Belle Chose' to up a grade, but it presented a certain mediocrity to it. I did appreciate the guest stars who resembled the actual manikin, but they out numbered Echo and could have easily taken her down.
