I watched the third episode of the Dollhouse series. In my opinion, it was not the most exciting episode, but it added a few twists to the story. In this episode, Echo is hired to look over a singer named Rayna and become her backup singer. She is sent there to watch over Rayna and protect her from a fan who is attempting to kill her. But at the same time, we learn more about Agent Ballard and his progress while investigating the Dollhouse. Apparently the man who he gets information from is actually a doll from the Dollhouse.
This episode describes the idea of how an obsession can go too far. In the story, an obsessed fan of Rayna wants to kill her. Rayna feels like she is trapped by her career and actually wants to die. When Echo saved her during a performance, Rayna is upset and says she wanted to give the audience a show they would remember. But at the end of the show, we realize this man really does not want to kill her. He was just willing to kill someone because they wanted to die. It is interesting to see how far some people will go in an attempt to help someone.
This show also demonstrates how events can change your perspective on life. At the end of the show, when Rayna was defenseless and when her life was threatened, she changes her mind. She realized that she really did not want to die and valued her life after all. Echo was able to show her that her life had meaning and she did not need to die.
