I finally remembered why the name Rossum seemed familiar: [link])
That Wiki page is empty ("Wikipedia does not have an article with this exact name") -- why does the name seem familiar to you?
Haven't you killed me enough for one day?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Maybe this?

I’m responsible for my own happiness? I can’t even be responsible for my own breakfast! (Bojack Horseman)
Huh, that's interesting. I see someone has already updated the entry to include the Actives on Dollhouse as contemporary examples of RURs.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.
Hmmm...I dunno how that closing parenthesis ended up outside the URL, it was a straight copy&paste from the address bar. Oh, well, ita's got the right link.

Our URL conversion program cut off at the apostrophe. I wonder if that's a legal URL and we're off.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!
Also Echo's outfit in this recent ep was so bad it was distracting. What the hell was that?
That was one short skirt, is what it was. There was a shot, when Sam has drugged Echo in the lab and she stumbles after him, where you could see ED's bare ass. I'm sure someone's already done a screencap and posted it somewhere. I was surprised it got past the censors.

she was still wearing underwear, though very small underwear.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand
I found myself staring at his cock. Or, more likely, his man stuffing.
Contrary to form, I did not. When his pants came off, my TV screen became a 42-inch blind spot like the hyperspace-facing windows aboard spaceships in Larry Niven stories.
How small an amount of the drug was needed to affect people if skin contact with victims multiple generations away from the initial exposure could still trigger symptoms? That seemed like it would be the transmission vector for a bacterium or virus or something else capable of making more of itself in new hosts, rather than just the starting amount of the drug being spread by contact among more and more people.

Never fall in love with somebody you actually love.
If you watch the episode, there's also a really rough cut when Eliza gets off the motorbike, presumably due to skirt issues.
Also, when they go down the drain near the end to get into Rossum and they have to "follow the red pipe" to find their way - what the fuck? Eliza looks up, points at the red pipe, takes 4 steps and then they've FOUND IT. I'm glad I wasn't recapping this episode.

For the record, I wouldn't kick the actor playing Topher out of bed for eating crackers.
