Dollhouse 2x07

Over the course of The Dollhouse series so far our main star Echo (Eliza Dushku) has gradually become more aware of her past, despite her blank-wiped mind after each mission she performed as an operative. Now she has escaped the clutches of the Rossum Corporation, without the GPS tracing device in her neck, utterly lost in her doll-state on the streets of D.C. or even beyond... Her handler Paul Ballard is still AWOL... and we’re left wondering what happened to that wickedly cute, evil doctor Bennet Halverson, or the moralizing white knight with a Rossum brain imprint, Senator Perrin... Echo has in fact made it all the way to Texas, without money or anything else except the clothes on her back.

Months have passed now... The L.A. Dollhouse is now run by Harding, someone above Adele DeWitt ... and Echo has somehow managed to get a job at a hospital... Like, what? If that’s not enough, she’s allowed to check on an imprisoned illegal immigrant, who she met in a supermarket before she got arrested... Wanna know how she’s pulling this off? Ballard has been training her to gain access to her former imprints! Too bad we get a lot of that sci-fi mumbo jumbo that’s supposed to enlighten us how we’re about to head towards a neurological Armageddon with Topher’s latest portable gadget that can wipe imprints remotely. Fortunately it is beautiful Sierra (Dichen Lachman) who does the mumbo jumbo, and I can watch her without sound! Meanwhile the L.A. Dollhouse has turned into a whorehouse for the filthy rich (providing Dolls on romantic engagements)... and Harding is proud like a boy to announce the grand opening of the Dubai Dollhouse... Yuck, I don’t want to even think about Sierra going there...
