Carin Baer/FOXIt's about damn time!
Ever since Dollhouse started last spring, we've been waiting for Echo/Caroline (Eliza Dushku) and Paul Ballard (Tahmoh Penikett) to hook up, but in season one, it was not meant to be. Paul was mating with Mellie/November (Miracle Laurie), and except for some passionate fight scenes, the fed and L.A.'s No. 1 Doll hardly ever shared scenes.
Well, that's all about to change. We just ran into our favorite set of 12-pack abs—Tahmoh!—and here's what he blabbed...
"I think it's safe to say you're going to see one soon," he said of an upcoming makeout session between his character and the artist formerly known as Caroline (Dushku).
Say it with us now: Squee!
We caught up with the ever-gracious Tahmoh at Spike TV's Scream Awards in Hollywood this weekend, and he also revealed how Ballard was settling in to his new relationship with the morally dubious Dollhouse: "Paul has to drink the Dollhouse Kool-Aid for a bit—I don't know if he's going to continue doing it though. I think you'll see, over the next couple of episodes, that he's having more and more issues working for the company, but he's kind of stuck in that position right now."
