Lords of Kobol, hear my prayer...

That's exactly what I'm thinking. At least TSCC got a chance to tell their story in two seasons and left it with a cliffhanger that seems rather satisfactory to everything they've done, which is something that most canceled shows rarely have the chance to do. The fans should consider themselves lucky to have that.

See I thought that Adelle also wanted to make sure that Echo wouldn't turn into an Alpha though, but I guess her agenda is still rather murky in many ways.

I've been very curious about Adelle's intentions for Echo. She seems rather attached to her, other than thinking she's special, and last season she believed Echo would serve a great deal of purpose for the Dollhouse in general, particularly with her evolving. After the encounter Alpha she probably knows Echo will not become another Alpha, but I'm thinking there's something else up her sleeve. It's quite intriguing.

You may be right about having Madeline, since she would have to serve to some purpose of her return than just checkups. I have no doubt she'll be glitching and remembering bits and pieces of her engagements, particularly with Paul, and I wonder what will happen after she figures it out?

who's outfit, I'm sorry, did not suit her at all

I beg to differ. I thought she looked fucking fierce in her new attire. It's different than the flowy-flowery frufru she wore last season, and it definitely suits her.
