My guess...Alex is still working with Nikita, but for this season, we the viewers will be kept in the dark to elevate the tension and the reveal will obviously come at the end of Season 2.

What a fantastic opening to Season 2. The ensuing firefight at the motel was pretty cool, especially when the air raid came in. When those planes flew in, I was like "Division is ordering an air strike at a motel?" Of course it turned out to be remote controlled planes. But still...

The funniest moment in the episode came when Birkhoff at getting frustrated that Division was trying to trace his line while Michael was talking to Amanda on cam, lets his emotion get the better of him, revealing himself to be working with both Michael and Nikita, which is something he wanted to avoid all together. To punctuate the scene, Michael looks into the camera and says to Amanda, "...by the way, Birkhoff is not working with us". Hahahahaha.

I'm gonna have to revised what I believe the ending of Season 2 will be. I still believe that Alex and Nikita will be on the same side at the end, more so now than I did before when I made the prediction. My revision is this: Nikita and Michael with the help of Alex and Birkoff will break Percy out of lock up.

Yup. (http://i74.photobucket.com/albums/i266/Chiprocks1/Smilies/0%20All%20Smilies/HTL_smile.gif)

I agree, a great episode and opening to the season.  I was worried that they wouldn't be able to capture the same feel as the first season, but they started it off right.  However, it has very similar aspects to ALIAS in how it has evolved, but I loved ALIAS so this doesn't bother me.

I'm a huuuuuuuuuge fan of Alias. But you do realize that a loooooooot of the story arcs and characters were cribbed from the La Femme Nikita right? Even though there are a ton of blatant rip-offs, it really didn't bother me because it was still a fun show to watch.

Peter Outerbridge


Solid episode that brings along 2 characters that were kind of in the "background" and suddenly turns the show into another direction. The first twist is that Birkhoff who more or less wants nothing to do with Nikita and Michael or their fight against Division, suddenly is faced with a choice of letting an innocent girl played by Julie McNiven, who happens to be a sleeper assassin, take the fall for Division's doings or help her reclaim her life back. He goes with the later, thus turning Nikita and Michael's fight into his own. The second twist is that of Owen (Devon Sawa), who returns to help the gang track down Dr. Mars, the man behind P9 and also the one who can help him detox from the serum that he created.

But the best twist obviously comes at the end when we see that Owen is now working for Ari Tasarov (Peter Outerbridge)the leader of Gogol. Yikes. This sh*t is getting good. Downside, not a whole lot of Alex to be found here. Bah!!

Yeah, I was wondering where this season would go after Michael and Nikita were on the run, but I like the addition of Berkhoff who was always more aligned with Nikita it seemed, joining the team.  The show is progressing nicely, and it is a great replacement for Smallville.

Knightfall

(http://i74.photobucket.com/albums/i266/Chiprocks1/Star%20Ratings/HTL_05star.gif)

This show just keeps getting better and better with each new episode. They are really firing on all cylinders right now. In Knightfall we are seeing more and more how Alex decisions are clouded by her thirst for revenge against not only Nikita, but the man that led to the murder of her father. With her hellbent on exacting out her own form of justice, I'm even more convinced now that come the finale, she will have to work with Nikita and Michael in busting Percy out of lock up. I'm gonna have a lot of egg on my face if this doesn't pan out the way I'm stating. (http://i74.photobucket.com/albums/i266/Chiprocks1/Smilies/0%20All%20Smilies/LoserYahooMessengersVersion.gif)

The ending had a great cliffhanger with Alex seemingly delivering the kill shot on her target. But I think this is just misdirection in that she was shooting at someone else and not the intended target. We shall see.....

Did Birkhoff show actual emotion at realizing that Michael had survived the blast? (http://i74.photobucket.com/albums/i266/Chiprocks1/Smilies/0%20All%20Smilies/HTL_eek.gif) That old softy. It's safe to say that he really does like being part of Nikita and Michael's fight. I guess you can say that this episode was also pivotal in they finally revealed Nikita's last name: Meers. When I heard this, I nearly fell out of my chair. It was so random and unexpected.

Roan returns to help Alex track down Nikita who in turn is helping Kelly (Katheryn Winnick), a former Division agent who espacped from prison who Gogol had in fact orchestrated her escape to lure Nikita into revelaing the whereabouts of the Black Box.

Got all that?

No? All you need to know is that this episode rocks!

Now that Alex knows that Gogol is after her, the safest place for her is in the clutches of Division who can protect her. It looks like Alex is back on Team Nikita, kinda. She didn't run off with them, but she did help Nikita and Michael escape. It's just a matter of time before the three of them, four if you count Birkhoff, break Percy out of his little glass box.

Getting back to Katheryn Winnick, I know her best from Bones, who played the love interest opposite of Seely Booth. But when I first saw her in this episode, even though I knew her from somewhere, it took a while for me to be able to place her face.

(http://i74.photobucket.com/albums/i266/Chiprocks1/Star%20Ratings/HTL_04star.gif)

Even though Cassandra insisted that her son Max was 4 years old, I knew she was lying and that he was in fact Michael's son. And now that Nikita has put the pieces together and figured out Max is his son, she has a big decision to make: Tell him or keep it a secret to protect the family. Staying quiet is the noble thing when safety is at stake, but when Michael learns that Nikita didn't tell him Max is his son, he will take this as betrayal which more than likely will fracture their relationship.

Would this be enough to turn him back to Division? Who knows.

Not sure what's going on with Percy at the end. When Amanda gave him the suit to wear, I figured it was because he was being prepped to go on assignment out in the field. But I guess that wasn't the case and it was more of a creature comfort as his reward for giving Amanda intel. I dunno.

You know that Percy knows that the kid is Michael's.  I can almost bet you that he will use it as a manipulation when the time comes, and once again Nikita will be the one holding secrets that fractures her relationships with those around her.  What she should do is tell Michael that there is an important thing she has to tell him, but it needs to wait until things settle down and they get a step up on Division.  I'm sure it will cause him problems wondering what it is, but at least she is putting it out there that she will eventually tell him.

Wow. They didn't waste any time playing the son card. I was expecting to see Nikita keep the secret about Michael's Son all the way to the end of the season. It took all of one episode. This is a pivitol episode given that Percy now has Alex under his thumb to do his bidding, Michael will go off to protect his Son, Nikita will be on the hunt for her real father and Birkhoff now has to set up camp elsewhere now that Division compromised his safe house. I knew that Richard Nelson (David Keith) wasn't Nikita's real father. Every one knew it. I'm just surprised that she didn't know it herself. I was certain she was playing him to get information she could use. I was wrong.

FYI, Roan is a f*cking Terminator. He takes a licking and keeps on ticking. Sheesh!

Cassandra is MI6? What the hell! This show sure does like throwing curve-balls my way. I also wasn't expecting Nikita to break it off from Michael, giving him the easy out so he wouldn't have to make the hard choice of staying with her or staying with his son Max. I'm sure this is nothing more than a temporary detour for them, before they reunite...to bust Percy out of his bird cage.

With Michael temporarily out of the picture as he is spending time with Max in London, Nikita is off the deep end pushing her luck. Now everything is shot to hell when trying to do recon on the Senator and the rest of the cabal, Birkhoff is captured by Division and promptly tortured by Amanda. She is one sadistic b*tch to say the least. I wouldn't be surprised if it comes out later that she spent time in a mental ward as a kid, possibly torturing animals.

Anyway, Nikita no longer has leverage since she had to give up the Black Box to Division in a trade to get back Birkhoff. As for Alex making her way to Russian to reclaim her birthright and take down the man responsible for killing her father, I'm surprised that for a super-spy she wouldn't even think to suspect that the watch that Sean gave her was a tracker. She can't be that oblivious to what his end game is. She has to have a trick or two up her sleeve that she will reveal later to put him in his place. This was one hell of an episode and ride. Awesome stuff.

I'm gonna have to revised what I believe the ending of Season 2 will be. I still believe that Alex and Nikita will be on the same side at the end, more so now than I did before when I made the prediction. My revision is this: Nikita and Michael with the help of Alex and Birkoff will break Percy out of lock up.

Yup. (http://i74.photobucket.com/albums/i266/Chiprocks1/Smilies/0%20All%20Smilies/HTL_smile.gif)

I'm so glad this show is back.

Haha. I called it. With Michael and Owen trying to figure out exactly what Percy's endgame is with regards to the Guardians, he makes mention that they may have to break him out. Ka-Ching!!!

I kind of suspected the way it unfolded with Katya (Sarah Clarke) in betraying Alex. No shock there. Also, it was nice of the writers to finally get back to Ryan Fletcher (Noah Bean). I was beginning to wonder if they just dropped him all together since he hadn't been on any recent episodes. Pretty cool sticking him in the cage with Percy. Remains to be seen where Ryan ends up at, but be sure to know that Nikita and the gang will bust him out as well....or he sacrifices himself to save Percy and the rest for the 'cause" so that they can make their escape. Yep, another prediction.

That

Was

Awesome!!!!!

It would have made more sense to call this episode Game Changer in hindsight, even though the title was used earlier in the season. This is exactly what it is. The power shift is underway. I've been saying all season long that a certain group of rogue agents would break Percy out. It didn't quite play out as I had planned. I was wrong. I knew he would bust out, I just didn't get it right with regards of who breaks him out. Well, it remains to be seen what happens yet. Major cliffhanger and I can't wait to see where this is going. A great season just got better. It was really cool to see Nikita, Alex, Birkhoff and Michael sharing the same scene together again. Master manipulator that Percy is, to get Amanda to make a mistake like that, just by the simple act of spurning her gets her to play her card and try to execute him. Awesome episode for sure.

Haha. Going back over the entire thread, I have a tendency to think each episode is the best one ever. Just a testament to the fact that the series is one of the best shows on TV right now. Just a great season so far.

This one picks up right where we left off in the last one as Nikita and the rest of the gang race against time to stop Percy's men from initiating the trigger that will release the gas inside of Division. The outcome was never really in doubt and the big reveal at the end with Ari Tasarov and Amanda working together wasn't all that big of a shock to me. Kinda saw it coming. I was hopeful that it would be a 3rd party that we haven't seen yet, who could have been played by someone like Operations (Eugene Robert Glazer) from La Femme Nikita. Now THAT would have been awesome to see. Ari does mention that he still has to answer to HIS boss, so it could still play out like that. Knock on wood.

Really cool episode centering around Carla (Erica Gimpel) who has ties to Nikita's past, as the one that got her clean and then set her on a path to Division. I was reeeeeeeeeally curious to why Amanda had a kill order on Carla and why Percy was keeping her alive. But by the time we get to the end, I had suspected that she was in fact the creator of Division. This sh*t is awesome. The series is awesome. I can't wait for the next episode. The last I saw of Erica was in Veronica Mars. No idea where she has been since then.

They said this is called Origins and that's exactly what we get. We finally get to see how Division was put together with Percy, Amanda and Carla as the initial seed was planted. Cool to see, but seriously, Carla can't be that dumb can she? She got screwed over by Percy once before and now she is thinking that she can save Division and make it what it once was and she believes that Percy is on board for this? Somebody that has had epic power at their disposal, is suddenly going to turn over a new leaf? Delusional. Great scene with Birkhoff drawing his weapon on Carla. He should have shot her. No sooner does Nikita give her a pass, she runs off and tells Percy about Amanda and Ari's relationship.

I wasn't expecting them to kill off Carla (Erica Gimpel) so soon given the fact that she has ties to Percy and a long-running fued with Amanda. I for sure thought she was going to be a major character and player on the series with so much back-story to mine for arcs. And I certainly didn't foresee Birkhoff as being the one to kill her....albeit accidently. Great twist at the end to reveal that Cassandra is turning out to be a major player herself. Too bad for Michael though. Now as far as Ryan Fletcher is concerned, Nikita has to be weary that he may have turned to the..."dark side", having been imprisoned by Amanda for so long. I'm sure they brainwashed him and/or planted a tracking device insisde of him.

I wasn't expecting Semak to get whacked so soon. I figured they would play it out a bit longer, eventually having Alex kill him, sending her into a tailspin of guilt. Well, all that went out the window when Ari pulled the trigger. The ending was kinda sad with Michael having to say goodbye to his son Max forever, who doesn't even know he is his father. Now, in the realm of stories, 'forever' usually means they will be reunited sooner than you think.

Awesome episode that changes the playing field in a huge way. The mission to retrieve a gaget (Clean Energy) that would give Amanda and Ari ultimate power is at stake here. But Nikita has plans of her own to stop them. What I didn't see coming is that by the end of the episode both Amanda and Ari would be on the run for their lives since being cut loose by both Gogol and Division. Birkhoff unwittingly puts Percy back in charge of Division when he sent evidence to Sonya (Lyndie Greenwood) showing Amanda selling out here "asset" to Gogol.

Very intense episode. If you think about it, it's just 45 minutes of torturing Nikita. What was interesting was seeing a more sadistic side to her as Brandt tries to extract information. Even more revealing were the things that she said to Michael. At first I thought it was just a ploy of some kind. Like code words buried within the message to tip Michael off. Turns out, she really does have some issues she needs to excised. As for Senator Madeline Pierce (Alberta Watson), I don't think she is dead at all. The explosion is a cover for her escape. I can feel it.

I don't think the son was that great an actor to hide his grief about his mother.  I think that she is actually dead, and Oversight is officially gone.  Sean will now be part of Nikita's team, and his ultimate goal will be in destroying Percy, because he released the monster that killed his mother.  It is my opinion that Senator Pierce is dead.

You are most likely right. But I will be in a wait and see mode. With shows like this, they have a knack for bringing people back from the dead....or making people think they are "dead".

True.  I could see Amanda saving the Senator by cutting a hole in the floor of the limo so that it looked like she died when she was actually taken in some sewer, but I'm not buying it.  I think they are finally closing the door on Oversight (and opening the one with the weird painting guy), and giving Sean a greater reason to join forces with Nikita.

It's time to bring on Operations (Eugene Robert Glazer)!!!!!!!!! I'm also all for Peta Wilson joining in some capacity with the show, but it's highly unlikely she ever will. She did have an episode on The Finder that was set up as a recurring role, which was a pretty cool idea too. If you've never seen the show or the episode you can check out Little Green Men (http://pennycan.createaforum.com/tv/the-finder-(season-1)/msg6552/#msg6552).

Awesome episode for a lot of reasons. The biggest reason is that this one felt like an actual team working together for the first time. I don't know if it's me or not, but up till now, even though they have been together as a team for awhile, there has always been that little seed of doubt that Alex or Birkhoff or new member Sean has had an ulterioir motive for being on the team. But in this one, they truly looked like a team that had each others back.

Another reason this episode was kick ass what having Carlo Rota turning up as a Con Artist. For those that have never seen La Femme Nikita, he basically was the Big Cheese when all is revealed at the end of that series. I was so stoked to see that he was now on Nikita and my mind started racing at potential plot lines. Bah! It was short lived. Really short. They whacked him!!!

I liked the ending and the look on Percy's face at the realization that they had just blown up his money. I've never seen him on the verge of tears before. I really thought that he was going to break down and cry having just lost $80 Million. I would have.

Looks like Nikita is set up for a great season finale.  I think the show has progressed well, and it was renewed by the CW for another season, so we can actually look forward to seeing the finale's ending played out.

I think the CW realizes that with Supernatural probably only having one more year left (max two), they need series to keep the network going.  Vampire Diaries, Supernatural, Gossip Girl, Nikita, and for at least a bit longer 90210 are staples.  Hart of Dixie was picked up again, but The Secret Circle was dumped, which surprised me.

On the surface, it seems like nothing happened in this episode. But that's kinda misleading. First off, Alex and Sean finally admit to their feelings for each other. It was kinda weird to see this side of Alex, who hasn't really exhibited any kind of softer side to herself since the early half of Season 1. Since then she has had to be in serious mode for all of her ops. The other thing about this episode was finally the inclusion of Ryan Fletcher as part of the actual team. He has been with the gang in 'spirit' more than anything else. Here he got his hands dirty so-to-speak. Also, we can add another member to the gang with the addition of Morgan Kendrick (Brian Howe) who's got some serious pull with the CIA, a nice perk to have if you're looking to take down Percy.

So, it looks like we now have a running joke on Nikita. Chalk up another blown Safe House. I wonder just how many they are going to burn through before it's all said and done.

As for Brian Howe, it's pretty cool to see him any anything. I haven't seen much of him since Journeyman (http://pennycan.createaforum.com/tv's-greatest-hits-and-misses/journeyman-(season-1-entire-series)/msg4173/#msg4173) went off the air.

Well, I finally got that 'breaking into Division' angle that I had been adamant about the first half of the season. Sure, it was different from my original idea that it would be to break Percy out. I like how they suddenly have the President in the corner...not that he has a choice. Suddenly this felt like 24. I'm glad this wasn't the Season Finale because the ending was pretty weak. It didn't even end in a good way for a 'normal', non-season finale way at all.

And where the hell is Amanda? My guess is that they are saving her for something special in the Season Finale. I can only hope.

Now that was a game changer of an episode!!. I was still expecting Percy to find another way out of his predicament as he always seems to do at the 11th hour. But not this time. I kinda felt cheated in how they presented his death though. This has been building for 2 years now and when it came to the moment of truth, we really don't get to see the 'impact' if you will. Sure, that little scene with the glass breaking and then falling back into his Cell was a nice, ironic twist. But to deprive the viewer of seeing him free falling all the way down and crashing into the top of the cell would have been so much better. Just my 2 Cents.

So, not only do they kill off Percy, they got rid of one of the most underused and bad ass characters in the series. I'm speaking of course about Roan. Sucks to see him bite it. They had so much material to use with the guy and did so little with him. So with these two out of the way I was expecting Division to be completely liquidated and that another oganization would take its place. So it was somewhat of a surprise that the Vice President sanctioned to keep it going with Ryan Fletcher now the man in charge....with Nikita.

With Amanda appearing at the end and Division up and running, we have ourselves a nice setup for Season 3. Can't wait. Loved the scene with Birkhoff at the end with Sonya (Lyndie Greenwood). (http://i74.photobucket.com/albums/i266/Chiprocks1/Smilies/0%20All%20Smilies/thumbsup-1.gif)
