I do not yet have to scene that I am doing written out, but I am using a scene in this first season of Dollhouse. The scene is a flashback into Caroline’s life before she was put into the Dollhouse. She found out that the major drug company, Rossum, was using animals and possibly even humans to test out new drugs. When she breaks in, she is caught, and that it the reason she is sent into the Dollhouse. This scene has real world value, but I have not yet decided exactly what I want my real world example to be. There are too many examples of corrupt practices, and I still haven’t been able to choose the one that fits this scene the best. I suppose I will use the corruption of Tammy Hall in New York City. This relates quite well because they were a powerful, rich, political machine. When people, detectives, or cops tried to bring them down, they could not, for the machine was too powerful. They instead only had a choice of accepting bribes, which was they bet they could get out of the situation. Power such as the Tammy Hall political machine, and the Rossum corporation in Dollhouse, is very difficult to penetrate. Sometimes, there is nothing that you can do to stop these powers, which is displayed in Dollhouse, and many other corrupt political machines. Both of these situations are linked by one’s desire to do better, and the powerful barrier they need to overcome in order to gets what they want. Too bad that in most cases, as these two, the powerful political machine wins.
