Darkness Visible

USA Network Synopsis
Nikita and Michael are sent to a Balkan nation to assassinate Radovan Luka, an arms buyer for rebels who are waging a campaign of ethnic cleansing. When Nikita and Michael arrive in the country, they discover two displaced children, and Nikita forces Michael into protecting them. However, the children's safety distracts Nikita from her opportunity to shoot Luka, and now, Nikita and Michael must risk all their lives by infiltrating a Balkan death camp to kill him.

My Synopsis
"While Michael and Nikita babysit two kids during their assassination mission, Birkoff struggles with Gail's kleptomania." This episode's only good parts were those with Birkoff, Gail, or Madeline. The Michael/Nikita plot was boring. Birkoff turns in his girlfriend because she's stealing money, and he has a lot of good scenes with Madeline because of it. Maddy seemed particularly amused by Birkoff throughout the whole thing. He seemed shocked that she knew he was "having intimate relations" with Gail. (Come on, Birky, Maddy knows everything!) Ops was hardly in this episode, so there were no TR scenes. :(
