I decided to make the parallels to The Target episode when other members expressed some er, icky factors with it. I personally don't have any icky factors with it so who better to do it but someone that doesn't? Needs is fascinating. It may not have hit the nail exactly on the head thinking of T3 and a Planet of the Apes sequel. But I saw some parallels with them to the episode. There is plenty of room on there to other parallels of the Dollhouse...

Proust's monumental In Search of Lost Time has a great many parallels to Dollhouse. Proust's book is based on the premise that a person is a collection of memories--without those memories, there is no person. Proust explores the mind's memories, and what triggers memories, in his huge autobiography. His rambling searches are a great deal like Echo's mind, since there is always a possibility that pictures or items could trigger Caroline (like it did in the university episode). The greatest parallel, though, is the sense that in neither Proust nor Dollhouse do you get the sense that you can ever remember everything, or that you can ever truly find who you are.
