Hmmmm...
I don't know. Revelations and shocks and developments, but I think I'm going to have to watch this episode a few more times to really decide about how I feel.
Turns out all that speculation on Dr. Saunder's background was right! Congrats, those of you who called it (and those of you who, like me, jumped on the bandwagon as soon as you heard it. Dr. Saunders/Whiskey--really really fascinating. I loved the bit at the end where she told Topher that she knew who she was and then gave Victor a lollipop.
VICTOR! POOR BABY! He's so concerned about not being his best! It broke my heart! I want him to own the second season if we get one.
Again we have Joss's obsession with souls. And that you can't erase them.
Mark Sheppard was woefully underused this episode. However, his fake American accent is pretty bad, which I find endearing.
Not enough Sierra. Moving on.
Paul Ballard. Wow. You managed to make me hate you more and make me like you, all at once. The working for the Dollhouse thing? Baaaad. The setting Madeleine/November/Mellie free instead of Echo? Good for you, Paul Ballard. Good for you. Although I do admit I got a kick out of watching him and Boyd work side by side in this one.
I'm confused about Echo/Caroline. Was that her personality coming through in Omega? Because it sure seemed like it.
Topher had some great lines, especially the one about the tall morally judgmental man who shouldn't be in his office (except for Boyd). Also, I'm just as intrigued as Dr. Saunders as to why he would make her hate him. Veeery interesting.
And what can I say about Alan Tudyk? A GOD AMONG MEN. He's just too good. I'm still coming to terms with Alpha's past, but it's intriguing. What I want to know is what was his connection with Dominic? And if he called himself Alpha before he became a doll, then is that where the call sign system came from? I need more information.
The one real conclusion that I came to is that they tried to do too much in this last episode. Cramming too many revelations in there. They needed more time. I really, really hope they get it.
As for themes and whether or not this all made sense or was satisfactory or whatever, I really am going to need to watch it again. Won't be tomorrow cuz, hey! Graduation! But soon. I'm very, very interested in hearing y'all's thoughts.
FOX, IF YOU CANCEL THIS SHOW I WILL NEVER, EVER FORGIVE YOU! AND I WILL NEVER GIVE YOU ANOTHER CHANCE!

Re: (late comment ftw)
I thought Caroline wanted her memory wiped of how her boyfriend died.
Was it that? I thought she was escaping all the huge legal trouble that would've put her in prison...her boyfriend dying could definitely be a factor, though.
TOPHER/CLAIRE. GAH. I don't 'ship them as hard as Victor/Sierra yet, but there's so much room for fascinating things to develop in s2. *excitement*
I figured Topher has definitely used drugs at some point, but somehow I don't think he was ever a junkie. He seems like he'd go for the mind-altering stuff, but he's also cocky-genius enough to be smart about it, you know? Like he'd do it for fun, but wouldn't let himself get too far gone.
