Her name is Nikita.
Division took her freedom.
Then taught her to kill.
She fought back and won.
She saved my life and a lot of others.
Now we work together,
taking down the worst of the worst,
making right what Division made wrong.
[Ducks quacking]
Dad, do you have some money to feed the ducks?
We gotta leave for a plane in five minutes.
But it'll only just take two.
Please?
Here, use mine.
I'm done with it.
Two minutes.
Hey, Davis. How's the wine biz?
What the hell is this?
What are you doing here? We're out in the open.
It's a beautiful day.
Did something happen?
Have I been compromised?
'Cause I'm about to get on a plane
in two hours with my son.
Relax. Compromised.
Been watching too many spy movies.
You need to branch out, re-watch the classics.
Rio Bravo, Network.
You know what was just on the other day?
Godfather part one.
Got me thinking.
You remember that part
where Marlon Brando is playing hide-and-seek
with his grandson in the garden?
And he has a heart attack right there,
and the kid thinks he's still playing around.
And he just sorta giggles.
Still gives me a chill.
Is this supposed to be some kind of a joke?
No.
Just curious.
You think your son's gonna giggle?
Mymy son--
Will die today.
[Choking]
Not really.
I just need your heart to beat faster.
It speeds the toxin.
[Groans]
Joigin.
Dad?
Dad!
Help, someone! Dad!
Dad! Dad!
[Beeping]
88% confirmed match.
Okay, guys.
We are officially go.
Get a hold of her yet?
Phone's at her apartment, but she's not answering.
Problem?
Just got confirmation on our first rogue target.
Intel is six hours cold, and I can't raise Nikita.
Think you can track her down?
I'll see what I can do.
Bring the thigh forward.
Slide that right hand up.
Okay, remain in the pose.
[Laughter]
- Oops. - Oh, well.
Oh, we usually grab tea after class,
if you want to join.
Yeah, it's just right here.
Yeah.
You know what, why not?
I'm Jen, by the way.
I'm Zoe. And you are?
- I'm-- - Nikita!
We need you back at the office.
It's a minor emergency.
Next time.
[Chuckles]
Damn, I wish I had her job.
[Both giggle]
♪ Nikita 3x01 ♪ 3.0 Original air date on October 19, 2012
== sync, corrected by elderman ==
Hmm.
No, still not used to being back here.
I know the place looks the same,
but it's a new Division.
Everything's changed.
[Elevator dings]
Yo, Mikey, I was in the middle of pimping this ride,
not pimping it out.
Ask before thou takest.
Almost everything.
You guys ready to go kick some super spy ass?
We've been actively searching for a month,
so someone was bound to poke their head out first.
Martin here wins the prize.
Martin. I don't remember him.
I do. Hong Kong, right?
The past six years.
Cover was a fashion photographer.
Deactivated his tracker on June 4th at oh-eight-thirty.
That's four hours after we sent out
the "Percy's dead, come on back to the ranch" email.
I told you they'd go rogue
when they found out we took over Division.
And I told you we'd have to be the ones
to bring 'em in.
Okay, so what is he up to now?
Davis Kellogg.
Wine broker to the ultra-rich.
42, dies of a heart attack in Kowloon Park two days ago.
No pre-existing condition,
but H.K. cops find no evidence of foul play.
Except his son sees him talking to this guy
on a park bench just before he died.
Of course there's no follow-up
because this guy doesn't exist.
All right, wait a minute, flag on the play.
Martin cuts out his tracker, goes dark for a month,
and pops back up on the grid
to whack a wine dealer?
My guess is Mr. Kellogg
was into more than the latest Bordeaux.
Your bright boys in Beijing dig through this,
you'll find proof of a spy.
But not the other spies he's working with.
Why don't you sell me all their names?
We like to buy in bulk over here.
No, the deal's bodies.
One at a time. Accidental fatalities.
That way your hands stay clean, but the message gets sent--
stay the hell out of China.
And what if I were to have you...
meet with an accident?
Then you'd never uncover the network
that's right under your nose.
I'll call you after the next one.
Gonna lay low for a beat.
The C.I.A. must have screwed you bad
to make you betray your own like this.
Who said I was C.I.A.?
So how do you figure Kellogg for C.I.A.?
Well, when you work there as long as I did
you start to see the angles.
China has the fastest growing crop of billionaires
in the world.
A lot of those guys were on Davis Kellogg's client list.
It is a perfect cover.
If you wanna confirm your hunch,
I could always check with Langley.
By "check" he means "hack."
- Lightly peek. - Gently penetrate.
Hey, no hacking the C.I.A., okay?
We do not do stuff like that anymore.
This is the new Division, all right?
And it's our job to clean up the mess
made by the old one.
Loose canons like Martin,
they represent that threat.
So we need to neutralize him quietly.
Okay?
Whatever you say, boss.
Hong Kong?
Welcome to the Grand Mandarin Hotel.
Do you have a reservation?
Sestok, Mr. and Mrs.
We're pleased to offer
a bay-view suite for extended stay,
and a gift basket arrived for you.
We've placed it in your room.
[Chuckles]
Wow.
This I could get used to.
You may have to.
Extended stay, huh?
Well, Birkhoff will be doing his sweep with the street cams,
and that'll take at least a couple days.
Yeah, that's right.
So I was thinking,
maybe you should take your jacket off, mister.
Stay a while.
They got the air blasting in here, don't they?
I'll keep you warm.
Whoa, whoa.
All right, okay.
All right.
- Are you okay? - Yeah.
'Cause you seem a little--
What?
Jumpy.
No.
A little bit.
Little bit of Mexican jumping bean going on.
[Chuckles nervously]
Hey.
The mission?
Well
'cause you know there's always gonna be a mission.
Might as well enjoy it.
All right.
There is always gonna be another mission.
Our life may be mission to mission for a while, right?
Mmhmm.
So it'd be pointless to wait until things were normal.
I hate waiting.
Wait.
Man cannot survive on mission alone.
Wait, wait.
What?
Ryan said that Martin
was on extended assignment for six years.
Six years?
So is the guy a monk?
I don't think so.
[Computer beeping]
Hey, hi, Nikki. What's up?
How's Hong Kong?
Yo, stop looking at pictures of Sonya
and help me out with something.
What? What are you--
what are you talking about? Where are you?
Hey, can you pull up the pictures that Martin took
when he was undercover?
He was a fashion photog, right?
So he had to submit his proofs to magazines.
All right, what are you looking for?
Guy worked with a lot of models.
I wanna know if he had a favorite.
Gotcha.
Lucky for you I already hacked most of these fashion rags.
We're all lucky that you're a perv.
Look, what happened with Sonya was not my fault, okay?
You gotta talk to her, dude.
Tell her.
She's the one not talking to me.
You know, the one thing Percy and Amanda got right
was outlawing internal relationships.
You still gotta talk to her.
Okay.
Good. Good.
Good, because I think--
No, the model. I found her.
At least I found the one he uses more than the others.
Lynn Capshaw.
And she lives in Hong Kong.
Follow the honey.
[Moans]
That was a nice surprise.
I didn't know when I'd see you again.
I've just been busy.
You like the necklace?
I love it.
You get a bonus or something?
Yeah, something like that.
Looks good on you.
You look good on me.
[Phone rings]
Hello.
Yes, hello, this is Gong Cha Takeaway.
I'm sorry, but we're all out of pig's ear today.
Um, I didn't order. Wrong number.
Ugh, like I would eat there.
Gong Cha Takeaway, please.
- What do you got? - Well, she's there.
Listen, when you interrogate this one,
snap a couple of pics for the file.
We're not gonna interrogate her, Birkhoff.
Just gonna ask her a few questions about her boyfriend.
What's wrong?
Division.
Who's Division?
[Dialing phone]
Police emergency.
Hello, I'd like to report an assault.
Number 17 Queens Road C, unit 30.
There's a woman screaming,
and I think I saw two people with guns.
Help please.
Martin, what is this?
I'm sorry.
What?
I'm not a photographer.
Nice place.
She was definitely home, right?
Confirmed.
She's still warm.
Someone escaped out the back window.
Egress to the roof.
Martin.
Why kill her? She's not a threat.
[Police sirens]
No, but we are.
Window?
- No, that's no good. - It worked for Martin.
That's what he wants. That's what he's counting on.
If we run, it triggers a city-wide manhunt.
The heat on us makes it harder to track him.
So what's our alt? We get caught?
No, you take the window.
And I get caught.
No.
Yes.
H.K.P.D. will think they have their man,
case closed,
which leaves you free to hunt Martin.
- Michael, no. - Nikita, yes.
Look, it's just the locals.
It's Bolivia all over again, remember?
Which means you can break me out, easy,
but after you bag that son of a bitch.
Hey. Hey, hey, hey.
I will see you at the extract.
I promise.
[Indistinct shouting]
[Silenced gunshots]
Hong Kong police have arrived at the model's apartment.
Someone made a 911 call.
Ops, Nikita.
Ops, go ahead.
I got it! I got it!
You, move.
Go to my station. Move!
Target's out of pocket.
I planted Michael's comm on his vehicle.
Can you track it?
Can't track it, but we can listen in.
Good move.
You have a bead on Michael?
Nikita, return to location blue
and code in secure.
[Keypad beeps]
Kurt Sestok.
In Hong Kong for pleasure.
You find murder pleasurable, Mr. Sestok?
[Speaking Cantonese]
Your Cantonese is very good.
That won't help you with me.
Neither will a lawyer, I'm afraid.
To start, we find you standing
over the body of a dead woman.
And then I look in your coat pocket.
And I find motive.
My guess is she said no.
Actually, I never got around to asking her.
I'm gonna need that back.
No.
What you need is a miracle.
I slipped a data router on the embassy phone line.
If police call the U.S. Consulate,
they' get us.
Wolf team is en route from the airport.
Yo, he's at the airport!
He's-- he's at the airport.
For loading and unloading of passengers only.
[Message repeats in Cantonese]
It just keeps repeating. He's parked there.
He might be trying to flee the country.
Can we get a visual?
Should I send Wolf team back to the airport, sir?
They can turn around. No.
Move. Move!
Nikita's coded in. Location blue.
You injured?
No. What's the status on Michael?
Local custody pending arraignment.
Waiting for him to make contact.
What's the play?
Nikita, we will get him home.
Ryan, send me his location.
Martin may be trying to flee the country as we speak.
I need you at the airport to set up a survey now.
A survey is a two-man op, and I am one man down.
I know.
No, Ryan, I'm flying solo here.
Michael needs extraction,
and I can't be in two places at once.
I know, that's why I'm sending in support.
Wolf team is en route to rendezvous with you now.
♪ ♪
Miss Udinov, welcome to the Grand Mandarin.
It is a great honor to receive you.
Do you have any bottled water?
Absolutely.
I got it. I got it, thanks.
[Door beeps]
Hey.
Here we go, right?
Yeah, just a little sooner than I'd hoped.
So...
Are we Alex or Alexandra?
I'm gonna take this coat off.
All right, I want us wired in an uplinked
before anyone gets a potty break.
Hey there, you don't mind if we crash in your room?
Yes, and don't touch my mini bar.
Okay, Martin never went through gate security.
I got him stepping into a cab, city bound.
He's using the airport just to switch?
No, he grabbed something in there.
Looks like a kit bag.
Probably stored in a locker.
Resupply. He's gearing up.
Boy wants a rematch with Nikki.
No, that's too emotional.
The guy uses his girlfriend's corpse to set a trap.
He's taking the risk to stay in town.
It's--it's calculated.
It's practical.
He may have another target.
Another C.I.A. asset.
There could be a whole network embedded over there.
If there was, Martin would know every member of it.
Percy probably loaned him out
to the C.I.A. on select missions.
So should we call the C.I.A. now?
I cannot tell them that a Division assassin
killed one of their people.
Especially since we don't exist.
Right, so should we hack the C.I.A. now?
[Knuckles crack]
I'm happy you're here.
It's just weird
having a Division Alpha team as backup, you know?
It's all weird.
I'm not used to playing myself as my cover.
World knows me as Alexandra Udinov,
the scandalous Russian heiress.
Pretty much blown for undercover work.
We could use your high profile.
Especially if it was a distraction.
You wanna run a con on the Hong Kong police.
Division's on the line.
We have a critical update on our target and his targets.
Targets, plural?
We've confirmed a network of six C.I.A. assets
who have infiltrated China's one percent.
They all work in the high-end luxury field.
Wine, art, jewelry, cars, and yachts.
We think Martin may be selling them out one by one.
Who's he selling to, Chinese intelligence?
That'd be our best guess.
Only one of the six is actually in China right now,
James Wright.
He's a car broker.
James is set to arrive in Hong Kong tomorrow morning,
transporting a vintage car for one of his clients.
We think that he is Martin's next target.
Nikita, I need you to intercept this guy
before he has an accident.
What about Michael?
We've got a plan to get him, it's low pro.
Wolf team can carry that out.
We need to stop Martin and wrap out of Hong Kong
before things get a whole lot worse.
Where and when?
He'll be at the port, 0900.
Dude, first mission.
Is there anyone here who speaks English?
You speak English?
Yes. How can I help you?
My name is Alexandra Udinov,
and I'd like to report a theft.
[Keypad beeps]
Mr. Sestok, Jack King,
McElhinny-White and Associates.
The embassy sent you?
I've already been briefed.
We just want to hear your side of the story.
Ah, keep a distance, please.
Why'd they pick you?
You guys a big firm or a little firm?
We have six associates,
and we are going to do everything we can
to get you out of here as soon as possible.
What are they worth?
What does that matter?
They are Alexandrite studs in a 24-karat setting,
worth more than your job.
Is that enough for you to open a case, huh?
How 'bout this?
They were given to me by my father on my 12th birthday.
And if you know who I am, then you know who my father was,
and you would know that the real worth of those earrings
is priceless!
Please write that down, priceless.
Okay, we're up.
Cameras and phones,
and in two shakes we'll have power and utilities.
Thank you, Miss Udinov.
Is that translation software ready?
Yes, Mandarin or Cantonese?
Mandarin. Let's make the call.
Inspector, you have a call from headquarters.
Who is it?
Headquarters. Beijing.
Conclude your interview.
[Speaking Cantonese]
Lau.
[Speaking Mandarin]
This is a very sensitive matter.
The girl that he was found with was also connected...
Socially with a member of Politburo.
[Speaking Mandarin]
When the agents arrive,
it'll be best if you take him out the back
where no one will see.
When they go to move you, I'll protest in the lobby.
It'll speed things along.
I can't leave.
There's a piece of evidence I need to get back.
Don't worry about your passport.
It's not the passport.
Then what?
Where's Nikita?
All right, be careful now.
One scratch and we're done.
They don't make this paint grade anymore.
I've got eyes on Wright.
Get down!
Who the--
[tires squeal]
Just say thank you.
[Dialing phone]
[Phone rings]
Yes?
I've got another friend I'd like you to meet.
Another one so soon?
I thought you were taking a beat.
There's a suspect in custody for murder
with the H.K.P. right now.
And he's a spy?
One I can't get to, but you can.
Okay, I think we're ready for you guys
to roll up and grab Michael.
Um, Ops, we may have a problem.
[Door buzzes]
[Speaking Cantonese]
What the hell's going on?
Sir, a call just came in.
Sean? Put him through.
No, it's Martin.
He wants to talk to Nikita.
[Tires squeal]
What?
Nikita, we are in a rapidly escalating situation here.
Martin just upped the ante.
I want to put us all on the line.
Do it.
Hello, Nikita.
I know you from your file,
but we haven't been properly introduced.
I'm the guy who's got something you want.
And you're the girl who's got something I want.
So let's make a deal.
Since you grabbed Mr. Wright,
I assume you know what I'm trying to get done
here in Hong Kong.
Yeah, you work for M.S.S. as a contract killer.
I can't say you've traded up from Division.
No, you got it wrong.
I wrote the contract.
That's what freelance means.
If anything, M.S.S. is working for me.
If I tell them to let Michael go, they will.
If you think I'm gonna trade your target for my partner,
you haven't ready my file close enough.
Nah, keep the car guy.
You earned him.
What I want is for you to get out of my way
and let finish my job.
You mean killing innocent people?
Says the lady sent to kill her own kind.
Martin, this is Ryan Fletcher speaking.
I've been authorized by the President herself
to oversee Division.
I can tell you that we no longer cancel agents here.
That was in Percy's day, not mine.
Amanda predicted you'd say that.
You're working with Amanda?
No, but she offered.
Maybe two hours after I got the recall order,
I got a message from Amanda on the same encrypted channel.
How the hell?
She must have decrypted the black box.
Had the whole roster on it.
She warned us that anyone who obeyed the recall
was walking into their own execution.
And you believed her.
Why would she lie?
We don't exist.
So who's gonna know we're gone?
Martin, the President has offered amnesty
to every single member of Division.
If they work with us to capture the other ones out there,
they'll earn their freedom and enough money to resettle.
And you believed her?
I want my money now. I want my freedom now.
This is about more than just you.
Just shut up and sit down.
I'm dealing with Nikita on this, not you, tough guy.
Nikita?
I don't work well with a gun to my head
or my friend's head either.
That's your problem, too many friends.
Amanda always told us loved ones are liabilities.
Is that why you killed Lynn?
I want you out of Hong Kong tonight.
When the other four innocent spies are dead,
which may take me a few weeks,
Michael will be released and you'll get his location.
Or you get stupid, and he gets dead.
Right there, sign for prisoner.
Birkhoff, are you still wired in?
Shh, shut up, shut up. Shut up, everyone.
Yeah, Mikey, go ahead.
Are you still wired into the building?
Yeah, yeah, I can see you, man.
Bad times.
I know. So lock me in.
What?
They're about to put me somewhere worse,
so lock me in.
[Keypad beeps]
[Speaks cantonese]
[Keypad beeps]
This is easy.
Martin is using Michael as leverage.
We free Michael, we take away his leverage.
It was easy when the cops had him.
Now it's state security.
Sleight of hand won't work.
That's not what I had in mind.
What'd you have in mind?
We follow the convoy. T-bone 'em with a Mack truck.
A Mack truck?
We steal one. There's plenty in the city.
Nikita, we are there to stop Martin quietly.
We've already stopped him.
We know who his targets are.
You just call the C.I.A.
and you tell them to pull their people out.
If the C.I.A. thinks their network is compromised,
they'll pull everyone they got in China out at once.
Yeah?
Destroying an operation they likely took years to build.
Who cares?
The C.I.A. cares. The President cares.
These are the people that we work for now.
I don't give a damn about the President, Ryan.
I care about Michael. I don't have time for this.
Birkhoff, patch me through to Alex.
Nikita!
Alex, are the heavies still there?
Copy that, three armored SUVs.
Shut down this channel.
All right, this is what we're gonna do.
She does not make these calls.
First, get my gear. I'm gonna need my scope.
I'm gonna need Birkhoff's code grabber.
Shut it down now.
Meet met at the corner across from the station.
- Sure thing, boss. - Got it. I'll meet you--
[beeping, dial tone]
- Alex? - Nikita?
Alex?
Listen, man, we gotta talk.
That was not cool.
Which part, when I invoked the chain of command
or when I held Nikita to it?
You obviously didn't have a problem
since you followed the order to cut her off.
That's 'cause I had to.
Why?
Because the world was watching.
Right, and they don't know me yet.
So they need to see
that the person responsible for their lives
is consistent and dependable.
Not responsible for their lives, Ryan.
Just the operation.
Have you been sleeping in here?
Not every night.
Just, uh...
just to catch up.
All right. Ahem.
I'm gonna give you a little piece of advice
that I realize you don't hear very often in black Ops.
Chill.
The world's still gonna be here tomorrow.
Unless there's something you're not telling me.
[Chuckles]
Nothing you don't already know.
[Keypad beeping]
[Phone rings]
Hold on.
[Speaking cantonese]
[Keypad beeps]
He's making a phone call he doesn't want the cops to hear.
You wanna say hi?
I brought the code grabber for you.
I think the C.I.A. has hacked the Kowloon cops.
They're running around like headless chickens.
This agent of yours must be important.
More than you know,
which is why he needs to stay our secret.
He may be the key to getting the others.
I thought you already knew the others.
I do.
So why do you need this man?
Just trust me.
[Excited chatter]
[Beep]
No, I can do whatever I want with this guy.
He's in my world now.
That's not how this works.
No, this is how it works.
I am the one allowing you to--
If you wanna live,
you'll do exactly as I say.
You don't need to talk to him.
[Phone beeps]
Ahh!
[Computer beeping]
Onsite Alpha team confirms
Nikita has just taken the M.S.S. station chief hostage.
Yeah, we used to get that look all the time
in the old rogue Nikita days,

You're gonna survive this just fine
as long as you get my man back.
I can't.
He's locked in the cell, and the door can't open.
Some sort of malfunction.
[Beeping]

Okay, okay, get him processed and get him out of here.
He's yours.
Listen, there's some personal items.
I want them transferred with me.

Alex, he's coming out.
It's 30 yards from the door to the car.
You in position?
[Phone rings]
You shoulda left Hong Kong.
But it's too late.
You're gonna have to watch him die.
You know what, Martin, you're right.
Loved ones are a liability.
It's a good thing I have more than one.
[Gun cocks]
Clear.
Everything that happens from here on out
you can blame on Martin.
His body will be on that roof along with his rifle.
American intelligence,
always betraying each other.
You really have to get your house in order.
Yeah, tell me about it.
You know what, don't.
Clear.
[Silenced gunshot]
Let's go!
- Give me the gun. - Why?
Give me the damn Glock!
Where are you going?
To get your engagement ring!
Go!
Go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go.
[Tires squeal]
One down. 29 to go.
Dirty 30.
Well, at least the first one went down easy.
[Chuckles]
So you are still Ryan inside there?
Nikita, I am the same guy that you saved multiple times.
I'm still your friend.
But you're also my boss, is that it?
Not just yours.
The other agents, they watch what you do.
So when you break the rules--
You cut me off in the middle of an Op.
That's what they saw.
Nikita, I can see things happening
from operations that you can't see.
And I can see things happening on the ground
that you can't see.
And when that happens, I need to make decisions
from my gut.
That's how I survived this long. You know that, Ryan.
You are fighting for more
than just your survival now.
What does that even mean?
[Sighs]
National security?
This nation doesn't even know we exist.
And we have to keep it that way.
Disturbing reports out of China.
Yes, ma'am.
Should I be worried?
The suspected American operative behind all the chaos
can't be identified,
he won't be.
Ryan, you convinced me
that in a quiet way we could clean up the mess
that Percy made.
That is still our mission.
Division is necessary to accomplish it.
Division is dangerous.
If it is exposed,
if I have to explain how I allowed
a nest of former criminals turned into assassins
to operate--
You won't have to.
We'll be more cautious in the future.
Good.
Because if there is any more exposure on this program
I will have no choice but to send in the troops
and burn it to the ground.
My first duty is to protect this nation.
Just trust me, okay?
Michael.
Michael, you don't have to do this.
Yes, I do.
It's tradition.
I'm a traditional guy.
I went through hell to get this ring.
We're gonna do this right.
