Echo (Dollhouse episode)

"Echo" is the original unaired pilot episode of the Fox television series Dollhouse. It was officially released on the season one DVD set. It was reshot and many scenes from it were taken and inserted into later episodes. It is not considered canon in terms of the show's mythology; however, many subsequent reviewers have noted that it was a superior pilot than the one aired.

It is one of three episodes of the series that was both written and directed by the series creator Joss Whedon.

FBI Agent Paul Ballard gets new wind in his investigation of the mysterious Dollhouse when he receives a photo of a woman named Caroline. Adelle DeWitt and the dolls' handlers become nervous when the dolls begin to show signs of self-awareness.
