After the shocking revelation at the end of the previous episode Adelle leads Boyd, Topher, Mellie, Ballard and an incoherent Caroline/Echo to the Rossum headquarters in Tuscon; at this point nobody suspects that one of their number is none other than Rossum's founder. When they arrive they are captured by its cofounder who is now occupying Whiskey's body. They soon learn of Rossum's diabolical plans and Caroline is ultimately told just why she is so important to the schemes. Meanwhile Priya and Anthony (Sierra and Victor) return to the Dollhouse and, with the help of Topher 2.0, discover the traitor's identity before heading to Tuscon to help the others.
This, the penultimate episode, answers many questions and provides some genuine surprises. I expected the big reveal from the previous episode to quickly be exposed to the other characters but it was delayed just the right amount of time in a way that made sense. Even then not everybody learnt at the same time leading to some impressively tense scenes. There is a good amount of action, including shooting, fighting and an explosion. The cast does a solid job; the best performance coming from Enver Gjokaj as Topher 2.0; he got the mannerisms and voice pattern spot on. It must be admitted that things were a little rushed at times but I'd rather that than have the series conclude with no real ending.
