Kevin Parry/Getty ImagesWe have so much Dollhouse scoop we don't know what to do with ourselves, but let's start with love (or the believable simulation of the same), because we chatted up the cast at the 25th Annual Paley Television Festival, and they shared a lot of great exclusive scoop about who's connecting with whom.
Want to know which relationship is about to get "interesting," which couple is "doomed" and which favorite pairing is going offline for the remainder of season one? Read on...
Echo & Everyone: Eliza Dushku tells us, "It is revealed in ep 11 why Caroline is the focus of so much attention. Questions are answered in a freaky delicious way."
Sierra & Victor: There's little hope for further romantic progress between Sierra and Victor (Enver Gjokaj), at least during the remainder of this season. Says Dichen Lachman, "Sadly, I think that's been put to bed for a little while. But it's so beautiful and innocent, and it has a lot of potential." Yeah it does!
Sierra & Topher: Topher (Fran Kranz) hires Sierra to be his Doll friend in the next episode. Dichen tells us, "Topher's a really sweet guy, but he's a lonely man. I think deep down he just wants a friend. He does ask Boyd (Harry Lennix) for a Doll. Boyd says, 'Sierra hasn't been active for a while, why don't you use her?' Things do occur—nothing sexual or sinister or inappropriate, but he does build a certain type of person. Being a computer geek, and liking computer games and football...I think you see the character being built around those specifications, very clean and friendly."
Topher & Dr. Saunders: According to Fran Kranz (love him), it's not just you if you think you see something happening between him and Dr. Claire Saunders (Amy Acker). We actually asked about his feelings for fellow lab rat Ivy (Liza Lapira), and he turned his answer into a statement about Dr. S! According to Fran, "Ivy and Topher are buddies. I think one other question is Dr. Saunders and Topher. I wouldn't count on anything romantic coming near Topher for a long time, but there's an interesting relationship with Dr. Saunders."
Interesting relationship, huh? Hmmm...
Mellie & Paul: The wonderful Miracle Laurie says of November's imprint's feelings for Tahmoh Penikett's Paul, "Poor things, they're totally doomed. It's really sad. Mellie believes she loves Paul, that's what she's been imprinted to do—to be with him no matter what." True, it's completely fake, but in the meantime, quite a hot pairing, don't you think?
Now, do you still want more Dollhouse? Yes, of course you do. So check back in the near future for our exclusive Q&A with Joss Whedon and then next Friday for our extensive and exclusive chats with Enver Gjokaj and Fran Kranz!
