Dollhouse Episode 9 & 10

Stop-Loss is Episode Nine. Victor gets his own brain back in his body and sent out in the world because the Dollhouse big shots don't want him "coupling" with Sierra. His first night out he sleeps in a bath tub cause its like his "pod" back at the Dollhouse, ha ha! Anyway, this secret group of "ninja thieves" j/k. This group of army men kidnap him and link his brain with theirs. A collective army that listens to one man, the top dog of the Dollhouse operation. Ooooh, scary. Anyway, Echo decides to get him out putting Sierra back with her own brain to keep Victor from shooting them. So she gets him out and he's fine, and then instead of taking them back to the Dollhouse she tells them to run away together because they have their selves back and they found each other. But, that doesn't happen. They get wiped right there and sent back to the Dollhouse.
Adele in her drunken stupor orders Echo to the Attic. Because she's jealous of her and just sick of her doing her own thing. Adele has power issues. The ending is Echo being wiped for the Attic, and we Adele for her bitchiness....or is that what really happened?

The Attic:
Echo wakes up, escapes from the Attic, but Victor and Sierra die. But that is all in her head. She has these crazy nightmares and this blue guy(who should join the Blue Man Group) trying to kill her. Then Laurence shows up to save her ass and they decide to team up to kill the blue man even though Laurence tried to kill her in Season 1. Laurence teaches Echo how to jump from brain to brain in the Attic. They find Victor and Sierra, and the Blue Man turns out to be this creep who was the brains for the whole Dollhouse thing and his buddy betrayed him and sent him to the Attic. He explains that the Attic is the power behind it all, they use their brains as their computer source or some such stuff. And they can't get out, and he thought of 100's of scenarios to bring the end of the world blah blah blah.
Echo figures out how to get out of the Attic, but it includes getting killed. Echo gets shot, Victor stabs Sierra like some dramatic Shakespearean thing, and Victor gets torn up by the Zombies of the future. They all get out, even though you think Sierra really dies.
All this time Topher is shut down by his apprentice and puts Ballard back together...sort of. They had to imprint him basically with his own brain again, but left some things out...anger not being one of them because he grabs a gun and runs for Adele. We're not sure what they left out, I'm hoping it wasn't love and all that, but we'll see.
So, at the end they are all sitting together like nothing happened. Turns out sending Echo to the Attic was the plan all along. Adele just didn't tell anyone. She wants to destroy the top guys in charge of Dollhouse and getting inside the Attic to figure out how to destroy it was a step in doing all that. Could have fooled me, I thought Adele was just being a drunk, power hungry psychopath.

I love Dollhouse! I don't want it to end! Its always keeping me guessing and wondering.
