So last night, 9-10pm on FOX, a new Dollhouse episode aired! It was titled "Haunted" and was kinda different from what they usually do. The idea of the actual "dollhouse" is its a place that hires people with special circumstances in their lives and get them to work for them for a certain amount of time. Once they sign the contract or whatever their complete memory and identity is erased and saved on a disk of sorts. Then they are hired out to be whatever a "client" wants, an assassin, a lover, a lawyer, a trainer whatever the client wants. Each episode you see the "doll" go through at least one if not more of their temporary identies with at least one client.
This episode was a little bit different. A woman had given an imprint of herself the her friend who runs the company so that once she died she could have a little more time enjoying her last days. Given, she would be enjoying some more time "alive" in another person's body, thats what she wanted. When the woman was murdered her friend had the imprint put in the doll "Echo," the main character, played by Eliza Dushku (love of my life).
Of course the old woman loves being in the younger body and tells her boss friend "Nice work Addie!" while basically feeling herself up. She goes to her own funeral and witnesses her family mourning for her. Then she goes back to her own house claiming to be a friend of herself when her children ask her who she is. She finds out from her brother and her son and daughter that she was a very cold person and they never thought she was emotionally there for them. She attempts to make amends while also trying to solve her murder. The children seem to think that her very young husband did it, but it turns out it wasnt him. It was her own son.
Its all very dramatic but in the end everyone gets their just deserts. A couple of the other "dolls" or "actives" also have some small storylines, but its too much to type, and honestly, I only care about Eliza's part. If you dont watch it you should and if you do then yay! Here are some pictures from last nights episode (the young one is Eliza Dushku (aka Echo) and the older one is the woman who runs the "Dollhouse"):
