Dollhouse: True Believer

Echo is "hired" by a senator to infiltrate a heavily guarded cult and imprinted as a religious believer. However, when she is blinded so that a surveillance camera can be implanted in her eye, her mission is made much more difficult. Meanwhile, Ballard gets one step closer to the Dollhouse with the assistance of his unseen ally, and Topher and Saunders try to pinpoint the sexual connection between Victor and Sierra.

Episode Quotes
Loomis: Then you know that I’ve got plenty of faces to scan for people much more impressive than you.
Ballard: Not as charming
Loomis: Was that flirting?
Ballard: I think so. It’s been a while. Did I mention I was shot?

Adelle: Echo, why don’t you go and have a massage?
Echo: A massage would be relaxing.
Topher: If she was any more relaxed, she’d be ooze.

Dr. Claire Saunders: It’s possible one good sneeze could bring on a seizure.
Topher: Or even worse, a sneezure.

(studying male erections)
Dr. Claire Saunders: Of course. If it had been a snake… Forget I said that.

Echo: God brought me here to give you a message, and that message is “Move your ass!”
