“Man On The Street” quotes from Dollhouse

Victor

I did something bad.

Echo

What did you do?

Victor

Nobody will tell me.

DeWitt

Why didn't you tell us you were setting up Hearn?

Boyd

He had to be clear. He had to be flush with success or he'd never have tried again.

DeWitt

You will never take action like that on your own again inside these walls. Am I clear?

Boyd

You're clear.

DeWitt

A bonus has been wired to your account.

Boyd

I don't need a bonus.

DeWitt

Well I need to give it to you.

DeWitt

Can you imagine at all why it is that you're not dead?

You've probably got something worse planned. Are you going to erase my brain, turn me into one of your fantasy boys?

DeWitt

I find it a bit sad that you think of yourself as a candidate for anyone's fantasy.

You know you're sweet on me.

Echo

The dollhouse is real. They know you're after them and they're going to have you taken off the case. That's why they sent me.

Paul

Why are you telling me this?

Echo

We have a person inside. This person corrupted the imprint while the programmer wasn't looking, added this parameter.

Paul

Is this the person that sent me the tapes and the picture?

Echo

No. This is their first communication. Security inside is very tight.

Paul

Where is it?

Echo

You can't know that. You're going about this the wrong way.

Paul

I have to take down the dollhouse!

Echo

There are over twenty dollhouses in cities around the world. They have ties to every major political power on the planet. You cannot possibly stop them alone.

Paul

You're going to help me?

Echo

The person that sent this message is.

Paul

Why?

Echo

The dollhouse deals in fantasy. That is their business, but that is not their purpose.

Paul

What is?

Echo

We need you to find out. We'll contact you again, if possible with the same body. But you have to let the dollhouse win, make them back off. You have to trust me.

Ballard

Tell me about the dollhouse.

The Dollh... Uh, it's pink, and it opens up, and there's teeny furniture, and you put the boy doll on top of the girl doll and we learn about urges.

She never got to see this house. So, every year on this date I pretend she does. I get to see that look on her face, and I get to show her our extraordinary home.

Paul

And then you sleep with her.

Well, it is a fantasy.

Paul

I'm sorry for your loss, Mr. Mynor. But it doesn't make you anything other than a predator.

Well, I'm sure I'm in serious need of some moral spankitude, but guess who's not qualified to be my Rabbi?

There are three flowers in a vase. The third flower is green.

Forget morality, imagine it's true, right. Imagine this technology being used. Now imagine it being used on you. Everything you believe, gone. Everyone you love, strangers, maybe enemies. Every part of you that makes you more than a walking cluster of neurons, Dissolved at someone else's whim. If that technology exists, It'll be used. It'll be abused. It'll be global. And we will be over. As a species we will cease to matter. I don't know. Maybe we should.
