USA Network Synopsis
Red Cell has created a human time bomb. In order to discover the identity
of the human bomb and its eventual target, Nikita must capture one of Red
Cell's operatives, who is serving time in a foreign prison on drug charges.
Nikita is sent to that country to get arrested and taken to the same prison.
However, not only does Nikita have to secure the trust of Jenna, the Red
Cell operative, but Nikita is forced to betray that trust by escaping the
prison with Jenna through a series of underground tunnels, only for Section
to abduct and interrogate her.
My Synopsis
"Nikita gets a girlfriend in prison." This episode was pretty interesting,
although it could have been much better. The scenes in the prison were
very odd, I think, like there were things missing. I thought the relationship
between Nikita and Jenna was developed too quickly to be realistic. *shrug*
I really liked Operations in this episode because he was much nicer and more
personable. He told Nikita that she did a good job (he was impressed with her
performance with Jenna--and so was I!), and he told Birkoff that he was very
valuable to the Section. The way that Michael discovered the identity of the
human bomb was very unique; I liked it. This was also the first episode that
we meet Belinda, who becomes Walter's wife. It was so cute! He tries to
impress her: "I'm a rebel." lol! And Birkoff was very cool to change Belinda's
abeyance record, if only to help the lovers for a little while. No Maddy in this
episode, but it was still rewatchable.
