omg. just finished watching this episode. must watch it again.!

RUN DR. SAUNDERS RUN! Poor Amy. I don't want her character in harms way. I don't want her to die. She's too cool! Can't wait to see this episode XD

Omg!! Alan in the Dollhouse?! I thought that was a rumor. So happy! I love Alan in a Whedon show. And Amy meets Alpha again. This is going to be an AWESOME episode.

Just got done watching this episode... HOLY CRAP! I was not expecting that when Alpha was revealed.

The king is in the place!

...Wash?! WASH! Alan Tudyk... and Ballard in the Dollhouse! THIS is going to be one hell of a great episode (and I keep wondering how each one will top the previous one... since "Man on the Street", they've been doing that each week.).

It would explain his excellent fighting ability too (1vs4 and he still win). 100% sure he is a doll.

this looks amazing

AHHHHHH ALPHA IS IN IT!!!!!

OMG-- if Ballard was Alpha, that'd make SO MUCH SENSE.

The ending, Claire (Amy Acker) whispering "Alpha...", so afraid... was the best! Let's hope FOX does not cancel it... or in case it does, let's hope for Joss and Eliza moving somewhere they ARE appreciated...

gah! this really really needs a second season. and it needs to be friday.

epic!

Alpha is the guy you see at the start of the clips - played by the guy from Serenity (Wash)... the one that Ballard accused of building the dollhouse, that responded saying they'll kill me... makes sense really why not use another of Whedon's old show cast members for the pivotal part of Alpha..plus I have a feeling he can do menace really well.

The actor for Alpha was announced a while ago, Alan Tudyk.

The lack of advertising is definitely what's hurting this show. I don't understand how FOX thinks that people will tune in if they aren't even aware it's on in the first place.

I've been thinking for awhile that Alpha is Paul Ballard... wtih his obsession with the Dollhouse & Echo/Caroline... but I'm not sure though, just a thought ^^

Freakin awesome! If fox cancels it, there will be no end to the hate mail

She's not, in fact Joss has said that he's going to be turning up the Acker and we're going to get more about her. So she's not dying, at least not yet, though you can never really be sure with Joss :)

Waaaaaaaaaaaash! Don't you ever leave us again!

i think it being away a week amidst de-bunked rumours of cancellation, then with no advertising for it coming back is a big part too.

Thing is they debunked the fan theory that Millie was November ages ago, because fans found that out, yet she was indeed an active. Can't always trust the misinformation they spread. Personally I think its Alan Tudyk and they're trying to damage control on the fact that it slipped out.

Read the spoilers. His name is revealed in the trailer if you watch closely enough. And why the surprise that Alan's in this? After Buffy and Angel, who else would he've cast as ... ? Summer's busy doing terminator for starters.

I think that blonde guy is Alpha. He seems suspiciously innocent for a Joss Whedon show. Also, he was on another show with him, Firefly.

at 0.24 is that Victor???? can anyone tell me????

I think.....the guy who was screaming was Victor. I had to look twice, but I'm pretty sure that is him.

thats not the alpha, is just the designer of the dollhouse building or the creator of the dollhouse. what im looking foward is the fight between ballard and mr chief of security

were can i watch dis episode 4 free cause i dont have de station its on as i live in Ireland ? dis show is amazing i luv eliza she is so talented it wud be a DISGRACE if dis show got cancelled cause its 1 of my favs wat fox doesnt realize is many ppl like me watch it on de internet if we cud watch it on de tv it wud be gettin well higher ratings fox PLEASE dont cancel xxxxx

alan tudyk is very awesome.

wait a minute, is ballard alpha? it would explain the obsession with echo at least.....

Joss needs to take this as a lesson. DON'T do TV shows for Fox or network television for that matter. Go to the CW or cable. It will be sad to see this show cancelled because I guaranteed you, Joss will be done with TV and concentrate solely on movies.

I dont can see that in germany we have no Fox

SPOILER. Alan Tudyk as Alpha! It's about damn time. Next week looks pretty damn intense.

Alan is Alphia..but I'm dissapointed because alpha seemed like a menacing character and Alan is kinda of goofy!

I don't think Ballard is Alpha, I think it's all to throw us of course .

At last, Alpha!

he can't cause when the doctor see alpha in the preview she knows who it is right away so they would have known that Ballard was Alfa.

would explain why he has a weird obsession with echo

Agree LOL

No it's not. i think it's alpha and is been capture again, and that's why Amy is so scared : Alpha

argggh i really like paul & mellie together and victor &sierra plus wikipedia(i know don't trust) said one of the dolls would be deactivated in the finale and i like the three i just mention unless Alpha is still considered has a "doll"? anyways i agree paul can't be alpha otherwise they kill him already and they are spying on him,so????

the blond guy is not alpha is the creator of the dollhouse

ballard is Alpha

There is no way Ballard is Alpha.

I think he's shocking him.
