USA Network Synopsis
The stolen Directory has ended up in the hands of Red Cell, and operatives
are being hit around the world. Section is being forced to evacuate.
In order to learn Red Cell's next move, Nikita and Michael attempt to
capture Red Cell's next move, Nikita and Michael attempt to capture Red
Cell's counterpart to Birkoff, but instead, they themselves are captured
and tortured. Neither of them are willing to divulge Section's current
location, but when Michael admits his love for Nikita, she breaks, because
she can not stand to see Michael tortured any further. Far from destroying
Section One, Nikita quickly discovers that this was the intended plan
all along, and Section has a big surprise for Red Cell.
My Synopsis
"Section is at war with Red Cell, which puts our heroes in a basement
in Germany and Michael and Nikita in cages (what, you think Michael
and Nikita are the heroes?)." Ah, okay, so the Directory from "Gray"
somehow ended up with Red Cell. Whatever. Anyway, as is typical of
me, I liked the parts of this episode
that featured everyone but Michael and Nikita. However, the Mi/N parts
were somewhat tolerable this time around. And once again, Nikita should
just give up on Michael. What, he hasn't manipulated her enough in the
past? Give me a break. On a more TR note, am I the only one that noticed
how much Operations touched Madeline??? How cute! The Walter and Ops
interactions were really interesting here. And Ops looked incredibly
sexy in this episode (it was another turtleneck show!!). *ahem* :)
