Topher: [to Adelle] Aren't we supposed to care for these people? Doctor Saunders would never have allowed-!
Adelle: [While drunk] Which Doctor Saunders would that be? The avuncular physician so brutally cut down not five feet from where you were standing? Or the last woman to whom you gave a permanent imprint - the other wounded flower you restored by offering her a new life - who apparently found you so unbearable she had to flee the city. Is it that one?

TV Show: Dollhouse
Adelle: [to Topher] The cold reality is that everyone here was chosen because their morals have been compromised in some way. Everyone, except you. You, Topher, were chosen because you had no morals. You have always thought of people as playthings. This is not a judgment. You’ve always taken very good care of your toys, but you’re simply going to have to let this one go.

TV Show: Dollhouse
Adelle: I would no sooner allow you near one of our other Actives as I would a mad dog near a child, given that you're a raping scumbag one tick shy of a murderer. I can't recall do you take sugar?

TV Show: Dollhouse
Echo: You just woke up a lot of people. And they all think you're a bitch.

TV Show: Dollhouse
Senator Daniel Perrin: Stop I love her!
Echo: I know. [Punches Perrin] Luckily I don't have that problem.

TV Show: Dollhouse
Senator Daniel Perrin: At those hearings, you will hear a most innocent word. A word that will take on a new and grim meaning. A word that will become synomous with human trafficking, prostitution and unconscionable abuse of Neural Technology. Directly traceable back to the Rossum Corporation. That word is "Dollhouse."

TV Show: Dollhouse
DeWitt: Once a Sleeper Active's protocol has been triggered, the thing you're facing will neither be reasoned with, or stopped.

TV Show: Dollhouse
Bennett: Keep you mind on your work, please. The moment you start wondering about the people upstairs, they'll start wondering about you. That is nothing you want.

TV Show: Dollhouse
Bennett: What's interesting to me is that - you don't call out to God. It isn't a question of faith, it's just the venacular. Anyone in this much pain prays, or at least curses. But we take God from you too. You really are a shell.

TV Show: Dollhouse
Bennett: No, no, you're very pale. White. Pinkish-white. I mean, your skin. Your skin is like a pig.

TV Show: Dollhouse
Topher: Okay, so we have had an active, Whiskey. She was rendered unengageable. So we - *I* made her into a doctor. Uh - and you - so I thought maybe - similar - Bennet - the real Bennett would use an active to...
Bennett: You thought... That's idiotic. Actives are beautiful.
Topher: Yeah.

TV Show: Dollhouse
Echo: We haven't escaped. They're coming. They always come. Because of this [Touches the back of Perrin's Neck]
Senator Daniel Perrin: What is that?
Echo: It's how they find us.
Senator Daniel Perrin: GPS tag?
Echo: We have to cut.

TV Show: Dollhouse
DeWitt: It feels like ages ago that we actually weighed a request against an active's chance at survival. Let alone well being.
Langton: We've always put them at risk. We just don't lie to ourselves about it now.
DeWitt: You sound like Harding.

TV Show: Dollhouse
Topher: Well I punched her in the kisser - not what I was intending to do there, by the way - and knocked her out cold, which she might have been impressed by if she hadn't been out cold.

TV Show: Dollhouse
Topher: I think they're trying to build a portable device that would be able to imprint anyone without any active architecture in place. Any innocent on the street with a new personality.
DeWitt: That's unnerving.
Topher: What's unnerving is - I figured out how to do it.

TV Show: Dollhouse
Topher: You are the coldest bitch on the planet!
DeWitt: That is the last time you will ever speak to me like that, or at all unless spoken to. You're off R&D and back on programming. You will imprint these dolls with dedication and precision. And you will follow every single one of my commands as if they were your hearts deepest desire.
Topher: And what happens if I don't?
DeWitt: I would hope that, as some who does care for you, that you will never find that out. I rule this house! I won't let *anyone* challenge that, ever again!

TV Show: Dollhouse
DeWitt: One wonders how she managed. Out there. Alone. The odds of an active in an infantile state surviving outside the Dollhouse unprotected. I suppose we must take into account the fact that Echo is special.
Ballard: You're punishing her for surviving. It's complete lunacy!

TV Show: Dollhouse
Topher: I am obsolete. This must be what old people feel like, and Blockbuster.

TV Show: Dollhouse
Langton: Alpha do not do this. There's a part of you that knows this is wrong.
Alpha: There are many parts of me that know this is wrong. None of them care. And six... they just find it funny.

TV Show: Dollhouse
Alpha: You're in for a ride. You're not going to get loose. One of my imprints was an Eagle Scout, another one was a sailor. There's a dirty joke in there somewhere.

TV Show: Dollhouse
Alpha: For months you shared the same room. You never slept with her. You could have, but you didn't. If that's not love - Are you gay?
Ballard: No.
Alpha: Then it's love. DeWitt thought so too.

TV Show: Dollhouse
Echo: Everything's slipping away from me. Before it was memories. But I figured out how to hold on to them. And now that I have something real - people I care about - they're slipping away from me too.

TV Show: Dollhouse
Topher: What did I just tell you?
Victor: 5 years would seem like... 5 seconds.
Topher: Welcome to the future, where cars fly, robots serve our every whim, and genetically engineered dinosaurs rule the Earth.
Ivy: It's pretty much the same as when you left.
Victor: The war - is it...?
Topher: Still going.

TV Show: Dollhouse
DeWitt: Do you think anything goes on in my house wihout my knowledge?
Echo: I don't know. It seems like a lot went down without you knowing.
DeWitt: Yes. While I'm not surprised that Paul... and Boyd managed to keep your secret. But *Topher*? He can barely keep his belch to himself.

TV Show: Dollhouse
Langton: What do we know about the attic?
Topher: No one comes back, Boyd.
Langton: But why? What do they do to them in there?
Topher: I don't know: experimenting, torture. They're testing the limits of the human mind. The brain is kept in a fear induced adrenaline fueled overdrive state like a problem you can't solve. Either the nightmare lasts forever or...
Langton: Or it doesn't last at all.

TV Show: Dollhouse
Nolan: You know, this is a scenario I've never tried. Rigor mortis - the new Viagra.

TV Show: Dollhouse
Topher: I've done nothing wrong. Apart from the things that got you your job back.
DeWitt: You gave us extraordinary technology which will be used soon. The question is whether you have anything more to offer. Whether you can accept radical change, or buckle under pressure.
Topher: I don't buckle. Occassionally, I swashbuckle.
DeWitt: Yes, you're quite the pirate hero. Swinging in and dismembering Nolan Kinnard. If you try and keep secrets from the corporation, you may have every expectation of being chopped into pieces yourself. How do you imagine that would feel?

TV Show: Dollhouse
DeWitt: You didn't come to the Dollhouse because of Echo. You came because you work for Rossum. That means your option tend to slim to three: carry out Rossum's work without question, the attic or death. The moment you stepped into this house, you, in effect. gave us your life. And you must decide if that is to be put to good use, or laid to waste. I have seen the future, Mr. Langton. And it is not for the weak.
