USA Network Synopsis
When terrorist courier Jan Baylin commits suicide rather than work for Section,
Operations is forced to find a lookalike to impersonate Jan before her next
scheduled meeting with Section's only known link to a deadly terrorist organization.
The lookalike turns out to be a young woman named Sarah, who is in the last stages of
leukemia and only has weeks left to live. Madeline convinces Sarah to join Section
and make her life count for something, but as Sarah transforms into Jan, her
behavior changes, threatening the mission.
My Synopsis
"Madeline plays sweetness and light to turn a cancer patient into a terrorist." I
actually liked this episode; it was cute. Madeline was so funny! I loved it when
Sarah came to Section and said that she would have a good time there if everyone was
as nice as Madeline. Nikita's expression was priceless! Then she had to lie to
Nikita about Sarah's illness, and she seemed to be a bit distracted by it, so when she
asked Ops for his opinion, he was like 'You lied to Nikita? So what?' heehee. Of
course he was kinda dopey in this episode. It was amusing when Michael started telling
Sarah about the woman he loved that Madeline cut the transmission, leaving Nikita to
wonder what he was going to say. I didn't understand the Michael thing though; he
said he liked Sarah so he didn't want to see her get hurt, but they never did anything
with that. And the actress who played Jan/Sarah was great. Jan, at the beginning, was
funny (I loved it when Maddy started to choke her), and Sarah, at the end, was also
funny ('get my prints off your neck!'). Good episode overall, very comical. Oh, and
lots of scenes with Elizabeth (the female Torture Twin), and SHE was funny too! Loved
the part where she was puzzled as to why a victim's hair fell out. 'Must've been the
sodium.' LOL! Almost forgot: remember Russel Burke from 'Not Was' (Maddy's boy toy)?
In the scene with Ops and Maddy at breakfast (in the tag), Russel is on the computer
screen! Guess he's still alive and kicking and possibly being transferred to Housekeeping.
