Bolg 18: Expanded Outline


Expanded Outline
I.                    PSA
1.       Intro
-Explain what the Dollhouse was
-Explain main character’s role and conflict
-Explain issue with that will apply to the paper
                2.   Scene 1
-Use the episode where Topher is introduced into the Dollhouse and the imprinting chair
                3.  Analysis 1
-Show how Topher’s cockiness/high confidence  was very naïve of him to be with details.  Topher’s attitude shows he was not aware of how powerful this technology would become
                4.  Scene 2
-Use the episode when Topher has gone crazy in Epitaph 2 to show that he has lost control of the technology once used for the Dollhouse.
                5.  Analysis 2
- Show that once Topher lost control of the tech, he lost control of his mind and connect that to it leading to an almost end of the world.
                6.  Implications
- Argument: The writers of Dollhouse use Topher’s cockiness/high confidence in the imprinting method of “the chair” to argue that the advancement and research in technology could possibly cause disaster and huge consequences on the world if not taken seriously and overlooked.
-Real World Connection: One controversial issue in our research methods today is Stem Cell Research.  There are many people who are for and many people who are against this issue.  If overlooked by by the research scientists, chaos could occur if these scientists lose control of what is theorized to be achieved.
