Dollhouse 2x04

We return to the Dollhouse and a year ago sweet Sierra (the ever so fabulous Dichen Lachman) was known as Priya Tsetang, a free-spirited artist who unwittingly caught the attention of some head honcho inside the Rossum Company. He bought her paintings and arranged an exhibit, but when she refused his advances, he had her committed to the Dollhouse against her will so that he could finally have his little Doll. When charming Adelle DeWitt (Olivia Williams) finds out about the repeated engagements this guy’s been arranging with Sierra (and then manner in which he got her into the Dollhouse), he calls him “a raping scumbag one tick shy of a murderer” in his face! Hahaha! Of course, she’s been guilty of hiring out one of the male Dolls once in a while... But beneath the pot calling the kettle black, there’s actual depth in this episode. I’m not taking about some profound philosophical revelations, but this one is bleak and disturbing.
