I agree with Rebecca - as I understood the blind spot is just on the very edge of the room, and the blind spot on the other side of the door would just be on the very edge of that room. Of course the showers etc. have cameras, you wouldn’t leave an entire large area unmonitored like that, but I don’t think the room Sierra was raped in didn’t have cameras - just a tiny slice of it that’s not quite on the radar. It’s like any security system where you walk from one camera onto the next but there might be a tiny gap in between. There would probably be other places that aren’t monitored as well, maybe DeWitt’s office, maybe Topher’s lab (is whoever changed Echo’s programming on tape?) - after all, is whoever’s watching the security tapes all the time privy to knowing what goes on in those places? Who knows what that other room is?

ok, heres what i think:alpha is ballard, except ballard is not aware that he is alpha because alpha is his alter ego because alpha is in love withcaroline as wekll as ballard. as for mellie i had no idea she was a doll, but i dont think that she knows she is one, maybe when they say the phrase she becomes a doll, and i happen to love her with ballard and i bet anyone that mellie and echo are gonna fight(thanks to alpha) oh and i think it was boyd who stole the disk

Thanks Blue! Where’s a copyeditor when you need one!

Rebecca, if this was the offices where I work, I would agree with you. I’m sure we have a ton of little black holes in our security cameras. But this is the DOLLHOUSE. I mean they even have security tapes of the dolls showering together since their little mind-wiped fantasy fulfillers are worth so much money. I just thought it was a little too convenient plot-wise to have a black spot there in the hallway and no camera at all in that room when there are cameras EVERYWHERE else.

I still gave it an “A” though

“Echo tells Langton that the Dollhouse is real”

I’m pretty sure you meant ‘Ballard,’ seeing as Langton already knew… and if he didn’t, then man, he must be the worst Handler ever!

Anywho, awesome episode. It’s a shame the viewers dropped from last week but it was to be expected, especially with it going head to head with BSG’s series finale.

Looking forward to the next episodes!

Hi I really like to read the review you give the show and I REALLY HOPE you read my little comment.

Im trying to remember right. Boyd was looking at the video camera where there was a black spot right next to the door right? (I’m gonna be asking right because even though you can’t answer right now, I gotta do it.) Well the person raping Sierra came from a room on the other side of the door where Boyd was probably in relation to the one on the other side of the Rape. That’s what helped not to ruin it for me. Two rooms probably similar in layout meaning that the video cameras were probably in the similar layout as well.

BESIDES I’m sure there are plenty of blind spots in all of the cameras of the whole building. But since he was raping her he needed to find a secretive spot. It wasn’t ruined for me because I figured everything has flaws and if you wanna rape in a high security building, you gotta plan these things out so you don’t get caught. You made it sound like the rape and blind spot were just coincidence but I think it was planned out before he did it.

THANKS FOR THE REVIEW AND THANKS FOR READING MY INPUT!!!
