Dr. Horrible

Dr. Horrible’s sing along was very interesting to say the least. It was had a drastic spin to a sad story. Most of the story was about this crazy scientist who was crazy about this girl, Penny. He had never talked to her once, and he only knew her from the laundry mat. When he wasn’t at the laundry mat, he was thinking about her in his science lab. He had just gotten the chance to talk to her, when she approached him during one of his secret scientist missions. Due to the fact that he was in the middle of a mission this caused him to appear rude, therefore Penny walked away. Even though she walked away, they were both excited that they had finally talked to each other. As she was walking away Dr. Hammer, Dr. Horrible’s opposer showed up and saved Penny’s life. Although it appeared that Dr. Hammer saved her life, it was really Dr. Horrible. As the story continues there is a constant battle between Dr. Hammer, and Dr. Horrible. Penny thinks she is falling in love with Dr. Hammer, when all he is worried about is sleeping with her and making himself look good. By the end of the story Dr. Horrible shows up to kill Dr. Hammer, but accidentally though a chain of random events, Penny gets killed.

The ending of this story really surprised me. Yes, there was drama though the entire sing along, but I never saw the death of Penny coming. I would not have been so surprised if one of the Dr.’s would have been killed, but Penny did nothing to deserve the death. This made me think of how crazy life is. Dr. Horrible had this elaborate plan to kill Dr. Hammer, but instead, he killed the only women he ever loved. I guess sometimes life just isn’t fair.
