...and then the four of them are sneaking past what looks like the handlers' break room, in which some Asian woman named "Sophie" is bitching to Boyd about her latest assignment. As Echo pauses at the door, though, Sophie offers that her problems are tame compared to what Boyd's dealing with, and adds that she doesn't think Echo will last. Boyd assures her he hasn't given up on her, but is just going to enjoy a few days of vacation while she has a little down time, and then it's Sierra's turn at the door, and as she sees one of the handlers flash his sidearm as he reaches in his pocket for something, Sophie goes on that Laurence was right -- the Actives should be treated as pets. It'll be your own fault if Sierra pees on your leg later, lady. She concludes, "Even a good dog needs to be put down sometimes," and Sierra doesn't need to hear any more to get the hell out of there...

...but when the four of them are in the stairwell, Sierra pauses, and as the other two go on ahead, she dazedly tells Victor that she remembers men with guns coming to take her away. Her voice then gets harder and purposeful: "I remember the man who put me here." Victor promises that they'll get him, but they've got to go, and she takes his hand...

...and then they've caught up with Echo, who tells them that there are no windows despite the fact that they've gone up several floors, so they've got to be underground. Don't know how that could be the case unless Adelle's office, always bright and sunny, is miles above the atrium, but anyway, the four of them hear a noise and quickly duck into a nearby room -- which contains racks and racks of clothes, all with different Dolls' names on them, including theirs. They change so as to be less conspicuous, but seeing a carriage triggers a memory in November that she has a daughter named "Katie," but she doesn't know where she is. Echo promises that they'll find her, but they hear another noise, so they hide in the racks as some guy comes in, grabs an outfit for a Doll, presumably, and leaves, not before Victor and Sierra have the opportunity to breathe all over each other, which is a great precaution to take before you commit to making out.

Echo uses the keycard to summon the elevator, and while Victor thinks that's a dangerous move, he doesn't have a better plan, so they wait anxiously until it arrives with no one in it. They reach the parking garage safely, and as they start checking to see if any of the vehicles are unlocked (Is it smart to take a car that your enemy could easily track? Seems like they should at least have planned to ditch it quickly) they argue over what to do -- should they call the police or the FBI? Victor says they shouldn't do anything until they know what the place is and whom they can trust, and then they hide as they hear another car pull in. Some guy in fatigues gets out babbling to his female handler about his PTSD or whatever, and if I thought the guy's persona was taken from someone who actually watched a man die in Iraq, it would be sad, but the dude's acting is so bad it sounds more likely he was an overzealous paintball enthusiast. Once they're safely gone in the elevator, Victor rushes over to fiddle with something as Echo gets Sierra to remember that the guy that put her in the Dollhouse is named "Nolan," and then tells them she remembers the mountain house, and she needs to go there. Hmm, now I'm wondering if that odd, seemingly tacked-on assignment from the beginning of the fourth episode wasn't really an engagement but a manifestation of her need to get back to the place about which she's talking. Victor finishes up...oh, I see, the handler dropped the keys to her ride in a box by the elevator, and Victor succeeded in getting it open, so the four of them pile into the ride. They don't go yet, though, because at that moment, Tango and her handler get out of the elevator, and Tango's babbling in French about the folly of using car services in Los Angeles while dressed like a hooker, and against the backdrop of the top-secret Dollhouse I invite you to make your own joke about the Mata Hari here. Anyway, when they're gone, Victor gets the car started...
