USA Network Synopsis
Nikita is reassigned to Special Operative Jurgen to retrain her after her
capture by the Freedom League. When Section is contacted by Kudrin, a Freedom
Leaguer who could verify Nikita's story, Section seeks to capture him for
questioning. To keep Kudrin from revealing the truth, Michael deliberately
attempts to kill him during the mission, but Kudrin survives, and Madeline as
well as Jurgen start unraveling Michael and Nikita's lie.
My Synopsis
"And so begins the Jurgen arc." Nikita starts to wise up in this episode, but like
Jurgen said, she's Michael's slave and thus must behave like a total idiot. I liked
Jurgen; he seemed to have enough brains not to get into trouble. Michael, on the
other hand, was completely stupid. After he denies Nikita, he still tries to keep
her alive, although I'm sure it had more to do with saving his own skin. Jerk. In
terms of Ops and Maddy, Maddy got to do some serious interrogation and thinking in
this episode, plus a bit of flirting with Ops :D "Are you happy with your new
office?" Absolutely! It gives her more room for her plants and looks less like the
Haunted Mansion at Disney World! Love her line: "A bond between two agents isn't always
such a bad thing." Even the script said that she was possibly referring to herself and
Operations. Well, of course she was. :) Not much else to say, except I applaud
Nikita for telling Michael to go to hell.
