DOLLHOUSE - SEASON ONE
Unreleased Episode || "Epitaph One"
- WARNING: SPOILERS! -
I am astonished... This episode, it just blew me away. Ever since watching Dollhouse, I've always had a sense of voidness because at some point the show never gives away all the answers (which is also fun in some way, cause it keeps you guessing and craving for more episodes! :D lol!). So after watching this, I feel like I've eaten a huge cake of spoilers that I've deliciously consumed! I'm still confused though, lol.
Let me explain what happens in the episode...
(I'm gonna explain as best I can from what I remember. Please forgive me if I leave out some details...)
SUMMARY:
(Warning.. Contains Spoilers!)
In the near future of 2019, everybody is imprinted with memories and a human mind that is not their own. Or worse, has been sucked out of its original body. Six survivors (I think?) are trying to get through the fallen city unharmed and their memories/self intact. The survivors are three men and two women, with a little girl included. (One of the men has already been un-imprinted, you could say. He's just a walking dummy...) They stumble across the Dollhouse mansion and find a way to get to the truth of the problem, by picking up the pieces of what had happened...
The new scenario that Joss Whedon had created in 'Epitaph One' really chilled my bones, mostly because I didn't expect it! I have to admit, when I saw the first part of the episode, it reminded me of 'Termiator: Salvation' (which, I know, is not in anyway related, lol). The actors that play the survivors make the whole feel of the episode believable, and you can relate to them if you imagine yourself in their shoes. The actress who plays the little girl is also really talented! I was astonished! :D Overall, this episode rocked! I think its the best out of all the episodes of Dollhouse! It has a bittersweet ending though, and it left me craving more! I warn you though, some parts are depressing though. But its worth watching cause it's really well done! And as you might have already noticed, it includes LOADS of SPOILERS! :P
