Why didn't I see it coming?

Seriously, why did I not see this end coming with Dollhouse?

The episode was brilliant, in my opinion. But did Topher really have to die? I get it. I understand that he was the one who basically started all of this and the way to end it would be for him to set off the explosion but...I never once considered that he would die. I should've prepared myself better for this but I kept thinking about everyone else and how I didn't want any of them to die like Victor, Sierra, Echo, Paul and Adelle. I never even considered that Topher would not live. Why?

Joss broke my heart tonight with that final Topher/Adelle scene. Especially since it was basically after Paul had died and Echo had had her breakdown in front of Priya, which btw Eliza totally killed and I was in tears. I was basically crying throughout the entire episode.

I can't even write anything properly because I'm still so heartbroken over Topher's death and the fact that Adelle couldn't save him. But their final scene was the most beautiful thing I've seen on tv in a long time. So genuine, so painful, so real and that to me is the genius of Joss and the characters he creates.

I can't say anymore. I think I'm gonna wait for the ep to come up and download it, watch it again, and then go to bed because I need more time to comprehend this before I post on my board.
