Spoiler: Dollhouse - "Did you really think you could just walk into the dollhouse when everyone knows it doesn't exist?"

Friday's Dollhouse episode was the last before next week's season finale and I must say the punches are still being thrown. I have never watched a show like this one, where every episode we learn something new and are consistently shocked every week. Here is a quick and short recap of what happened.

- Echo's storyline this week took a back seat. But the imprint Topher provided her with was interesting. Topher imprinted Echo with the life of a little girl who Echo visited. If the little girl, who had been sexually abused as a child and was living in an orphanage, grew up and turned into the best case person, she would be the person Echo was imprinted to be. They were essentially the same person with the same history. Echo did seem to get through to the child during her time with her. But this story was not the important one from the episode.
- Paul is packing his things and tells Mellie that he is leaving. He won't tell her why and she says she blames herself. She is visibly distraught. Because Paul has left, Mellie's handler comes to take her back to the dollhouse. Paul, who knew she would have to be brought back to the house, follows the van and then knows where the house is located. After some investigating, Paul realizes the house must be underground and he finds who he thinks was the architect who designed the dollhouse. Paul and the architect break into the dollhouse. The architect gets to a computer and turns off all surveillance cameras and other security equipment. Paul goes to find Caroline and is found by Boyd. The two get into a fight and Boyd even tells Paul he is giving him the chance to just walk away. Dr. Saunders walks into her office, where the architect is using the computer and we find out that this architect is Alpha! He immediately slashes Victor's face in his signature style. At the end of the episode Alpha takes Echo, implants her and they kiss. He then says to her, "I told you I'd come rescue you."

Paul, who was only trying to save Caroline, brought the one person who should never be allowed in to the dollhouse. He put everyone in danger. I cannot wait until next week's finale. The previews look crazy. So much is going to happen and the voiceover announcer said all our questions will be answered. The show has not yet been picked up for another season. If it were to end, would you be sad? I know I would be. And as for this week's episode, do you agree that is was an awesome episode during which so much happened?

Here is the season finale's preview.
