- Paul Ballard: We split the atom, make a bomb. We come up with anything new, the first thing we do is destroy, manipulate, control. It's human nature.
- Lubov: Yeah, people are mostly crap. I don't think there's a Dollhouse. I hear different, I'll get word. Personally, I wish there was.
- Paul Ballard: How come?
- Lubov: So I could sign up. Wipe all of my, uh, terrible burdens away.
- Boyd Langton: Are you ready for your treatment?
- Jordan: All right. But can I kick that guy's ass first?
- Boyd Langton: I will seriously consider it.
- Topher Brink: Of the two people here, one of us is a genius, and the other is a security guard in a very lovely suit.
- Laurence Dominic: All right, genius, tell me why Echo would kidnap the girl you programmed her to protect and bring her to the man who's trying to kill her?
- Topher Brink: [pause] Wow.
- [nervous chuckle]
- Topher Brink: That does sound kind of bad.
- Dr. Claire Saunders: You shouldn't've taken the arrow out. You could've bled to death. And a broadhead arrow does more damage coming out.
- Boyd Langton: I'll remember that next time I'm being bow-hunted.
- Lubov: Hey, I'm getting this third-hand. I still think it goes nowhere.
- Paul Ballard: Then why call?
- Lubov: Because you inspire terrible pity. Watch your back.
- Jordan: He's gonna kill you. I think you know that!
- Rayna Russell: You have no idea what it's like.
- Jordan: You can't go out there!
- Rayna Russell: You don't tell me what I can and can't do!
- Jordan: You want him to shoot you... on stage, tonight. You're crazier than he is.
- Rayna Russell: I'm not crazy. I just wanna be free.
- Jordan: What have you got to be miserable about?
- Rayna Russell: No, right. I gotta be happy. I gotta be grateful. I gotta be rebellious, but just enough to give me cred, so people know I'm not a factory girl. But I am. I don't exist. I'm not a real person. I'm everybody's fantasy. God help me if I try not to be. I know you weren't grown in a lab, but I was. Been singing for my supper since when and for when and for everybody else! God put this voice in me and forgot to make it mine. I don't feel it. I don't feel anything. For a long while. But I know he's out there. The Reaper. Any minute now, boom. Freedom. There's your rush. There's your joy. I can hear. I c- I can hear myself.
- Jordan: Rayna, I know you don't feel anything, or think that you don't. But you will. You will if you do something to save this girl. And you will help this girl!
- Rayna Russell: What makes you think...
- Jordan: [Jordan knocks Rayna out] Friends help each other out.
- Boyd Langton: This Sierra's new, isn't she?
- [Hearn nods]
- Boyd Langton: What happened to the previous Sierra?
- Hearn: She got the job done.
- Dr. Claire Saunders: You sent Echo out on a high-risk engagement?
- Topher Brink: [sighs] Dr. Saunders, hey, so good of you to annoy me.
- Mellie: [Interrupts Lubov trying to pick the lock to Ballard's apartment] Did you forget your key again -
- [realizes it's not Ballard]
- Lubov: Oh, I startle you, you startle me.
- Mellie: Can I help you?
- Lubov: I am, uh, friend of Paul.
- Mellie: Really.
- Lubov: An old friend from... Navy.
- [realizes his Russian accent makes that claim implausible]
- Lubov: Friend from Old Navy. I did retail before. He would buy slacks.
- Rayna Russell: What the hell is wrong with you?
- Jordan: With me?
- Rayna Russell: You shut down my show!
- Jordan: I saved your life!
- Rayna Russell: You've got no understanding of my life!
- Jordan: Okay, are there any drugs you're not on? The guy was about to put a bullet in you, which, P.S., also stops the show.
- Rayna Russell: You disappointed all those people! I was gonna give 'em a show! Now all they'll say is I didn't give them a finish.
- Jordan: They don't wanna see you die.
- Rayna Russell: Do you know anything about people? They'd love to see me die. Eight years on, they'd be talking about tonight, they was there when.
- Jordan: Rayna... you are not okay. Okay? You are having a breakdown. Not a shave-your-head, flash-your-junk wacky phase. You are truly unwell.
- Rayna Russell: So he puts me out of my misery.
- Jordan: What misery? What have you got to be miserable about?
- Rayna Russell: No. Right. I gotta be happy. I gotta be grateful. I gotta be rebellious, but just enough to give me cred, so people know I'm not a factory girl.
- [scoffs]
- Rayna Russell: But I am. I don't exist. I'm not a real person.
- Boyd Langton: Look, if you don't certify me, and Echo gets sent out again, she could end up with some stranger as her handler.
- Dr. Claire Saunders: We're all strangers to them.
- Boyd Langton: She's my responsibility. And we both know there's someone out there. Someone who wants her dead. The word from upstairs is it can't be Alpha.
- Dr. Claire Saunders: ...You're certified.
- Boyd Langton: Thank you.
- Dr. Claire Saunders: And do keep a close eye. Someone else is watching.
- Boyd Langton: Someone always is.
