spoiler warning?
I think that there should be a spoiler warning or some kind of red highlighted text or such for this article since Whiskey is a pretty big topic. Unlike Lonleyhearts, where some info can be given, almost everything about Whiskey is a big detail in season 1's plotline. Do we have a spoiler tag? I find them to be really helpful, especially for new people to something who some info but not everything if they were late to it. Lying 08:55, 9 May 2009 (UTC)
- Isn't that why we have a spoiler warning on the first page of this wiki? Y'know, to warn people that ANY page on this wiki may contain spoilers?

Whiskey's True Identity?
I'm totally calling it, guys. Whiskey is Topher's sister. That's why he made her hate him as Saunders, guilt at her being hurt, punishing himself etc. Also the reason that a 'fraidy-cat like Topher is would remain in the Dollhouse, despite all the dramas and danger (well, that and satiating his ego).

- I don't think Topher's that depraved. If Whiskey were his sister, I think he would probably have arranged for her to be released from her contract after she was attacked. He has the clout, after all; After Alpha's rampage, he became the only programmer left, so he could have easily threatened to quit in order to strong-arm DeWitt into letting her go. Besides that, I don't think DeWitt would have let him work at the Dollhouse in the first place if there was a risk of him becoming attached to one of the dolls. My guess is, he wanted to recycle Whiskey after Alpha tore up her face, while DeWitt wanted to send her up to the attic. DeWitt had suspicions about Topher's motives for keeping Whiskey around (maybe she suspected Topher wanted to make Whiskey his own personal doll) so she insisted that Topher imprint Whiskey with a deep-seated disdain for him.

- Maybe she wasn't programmed to hate him, maybe she came to that conclusion on her own. Perhaps the original Dr. Saunders hated Topher, and he couldn't remove it without making her a worse doctor. Just because she thinks Topher programmed her that way doesn't mean she was.
- I thought she found information about her imprint, including her hatred for Topher, when she hacked into her profile. She sounded confused and angry when she said she didn't understand why it was so important for her to hate Topher, which doesn't sound like it was a natural hate, but rather something she finds, as she says, "strange".
