"Previously on Nikita..." " Took you long enough." " We got your message." "My people are excited that you're gonna be joining our team." "Our relationship could change the world." "Amanda's working with the Shop." " Tell your men to back off." " What?" "For our plan to work, we need both Nikita and Michael alive." " Nikita." " Hi, Henry." "Long time, no..." "Whatever your wanna call this." "I used to call it a secure way to meet." "Are we feeling insecure?" "Ever since you asked me to look into the identity of this man." "Paid you to look into him." "Paid me." "Yes." "I need to ask, why are you so desperate to find him?" "I'm after the woman next to him, but I already know about her." "Well, then maybe you should ask her, because I can't find anything." "Henry, you can find anybody." "So you're telling me you can't find one hit man who wears hunting glasses?" "I'm sorry, Nikita." "Sorry's not good enough." "No." "I'm sorry." "Some advice:" "Don't ask questions you may not like the answers to." "By the way..." "The name's Smith, and they're shooting glasses." "♪ Nikita 3x21 ♪ Invisible Hand Original air date on May 10, 2013" "== sync, corrected by elderman ==" "You could've been killed." "They were just trying to scare me." "Smith let us live, down at the dock." "I know, I was there." "Which means Amanda wants me alive for something." "Well, you don't have to find out what it is." " I have to stop her." " No, you don't." "Look, Ryan is in D.C. right now." "He is making the President sign our pardons as we speak." "We are done." "We can go." "With Amanda still out there?" " Yes." " Michael..." "She's working with the Shop." "Let her." "Maybe this didn't go down the way we wanted." "But we did what we said we were gonna do." "We gave everyone in here a shot at a new life." "Except for us." "She will come after me." "She'll come after us." "And she'll keep coming unless I stop her." "Nikita, before we got engaged, you said there was..." "Always gonna be another mission." "What you meant is that we can't let that get into the way of what we really want in life." "But I'm starting to think the next mission-- any next mission-- is all you really want." "No, that's not-- this" "Don't say that this is the last one." "All set." "Set for what?" "Taking the car apart to see if we can't find a lead on the Shop." "Didn't she tell you?" "Perfect." "So the doctor is continuing his work." "Right on schedule." "He's one of our most disciplined minds." "I like discipline." "Now, if all goes well in New York, your target will be eliminated and we'll be on our way." "I can't tell you how pleased we are you decided to join us." "I only wish you had come on board a year ago." "You should've made me a better offer." "We agreed to all your terms." "Now, I admit, I am uncomfortable with the..." "Nikita variable." "Nikita was my only term." "Just remember, we pride ourselves on our discretion." "We're invisible for a reason." "I know all about living in the shadows." "We don't even know if he did it via satellite." "How else are you gonna remotely drive a car?" "Telekinesis?" "What am I doing here?" "Division's shutting down, here I am sticking my head in the tiger's maw." "You do realize this is Shop technology we're dealing with, right?" "You've only said it 47 times." "We're doing this because Nikita asked us to." "Nikita." "You know, I love her to death, but sometimes I wish I could just reach inside her head, yank out that chip that makes her so" "Give me that." "Maybe I should take out your emotion chip too." "You don't have the tongs for that." "Hey, whoa, whoa, whoa." "Stop!" "Stop!" "Give me that." "That's it." "It's a strange fate that we should suffer so much fear and doubt over so small a thing, such a little thing." " All set." " Okay." "If I'm right, this'll give us access to the Shop's satellite network." "Okay." "Comsat relay 16309." "Why are we whispering?" "Because if I make a wrong move inside these nodes, they'll know I be creepin' while they be sleepin'." "Whoa." "This thing's a Black Bird." "Singing in the dead of night?" "No, as in not registered." "Technically, it doesn't even exist." "Yeah, these guys bought their own..." "Private satellite network, whose guts we are currently all up in." "What can you tap into?" "Well, this baby's a comm relay..." "Live traffic," "Shop service talking to each other." "There's some phone calls." "Phone calls?" "Yeah, three at the moment." "Uh, two just dropped out actually." "Listen in." "It took me a while, but I just got here." "And you're where?" "I'll be at the Cobalt facility for another hour." "What's the status there?" " What's Cobalt?" " Just listen in." "It's Smith." "The status?" "The status is I'm on scene, and the car's gone." "So is she." "It's him for sure." "Forget about Nikita." "You need to get to New York." "Everything's set." "I'm heading there now." "And the Hasan woman?" "She arrives tomorrow." "Good." "Then don't let her get away too." "He said he was seeing the Hasan woman." " Who--who could that be?" " Maryam Hasan." "She's a Sudanese-born human rights activist, and she'll be arriving in New York this week as part of a goodwill visit." "Didn't she just win the Nobel?" "Last year." "I've been following her since university." "We're both girls who got out of East Africa, as it were." "Wealthy parents, Oxford." "Says here she was recognized for her fight against human trafficking and modern slavery." "Why would the Shop care about that?" "Michael." "Plane full of kids." "Heidecker said the Shop tested on human subjects." "Preferably on ones that no one would miss." "So she's messing with their supply lines." "They're sending Smith to kill her." "I'm going to stop him." "We can warn the authorities." "No, they won't know who to look for." "And they won't stand a chance." "Sonya, can you get me the address?" "All right, I'm just gonna say it." "I thought we were done." "No more missions." "This is the last one." "Thank you." "Thank you, thank you." "Shelters like this are the kind of outreach we need all over the world to raise awareness and to raise hope." "Ms. Hasan, Ms. Hasan!" "Despite your efforts, traffickers continue to generate billions in profits every year." "32 billion." "In position." "I got eyes on Hasan." "No sign of Smith, but that doesn't mean she's safe." "Copy that." "Alex is arriving right now." "Thank you for this." "I knew Amanda and the Shop would pop up." "I just didn't know when." "No, thank you for the big donation to Hasan's charity." "It'll get you in close." "Yeah, well, what else was I gonna use the money for?" "Now, Nikita and I have the perimeter." "Hasan's people told me, your head of security, that they wanna say hi to you, like, right away, so you need to get in pocket and stay there." "And look out for some overdressed hit man wearing yellow shooting glasses." "You are fighting an enemy so large, so powerful, do you ever wonder if winning is impossible?" "I met a woman last week." "She was searching the streets of Mumbai for her 14-year-old daughter." "Girl was kidnapped when she was 12, forced to become a sex worker." "Her mother is still searching day and night in a city of 20 million." "Am I supposed to tell her it's impossible?" "Ladies and gentlemen, if you'll give me a moment." "Ms. Hasan." "You saved me." "It's an honor." "Ms. Hasan, the work that you're doing, it's-- it's absolutely incredible." "Alexandra-- may I call you Alexandra?" "Of course." "I've been trying to get in touch with you for quite some time." "Me?" "Why?" "Your story is an inspiration." "Falling into the abyss of human trafficking doesn't have to be the end of one's life or one's dignity." "You're a hero, Alexandra." "You don't agree." "I don't know what to say." "Then what would you say to being a special envoy to the United Nations?" "Let me ask, what have you been doing with your time?" "Well, I've been keeping busy." "You could be doing so much more." "Changing policy worldwide." "Pushing through new legislation." "It's Smith." "The flower vendor." "Stay with Hasan!" "You're cut." "We'll get you a doctor." "Yah!" "Oops." "Hey!" "Freeze!" "I'm not with him." "Yah!" "Not so tough without your car, are you?" "Smith's down." "NYPD's on the way." "Get scarce." "Amanda." "The text came from Cobalt River, northern Michigan." "Cobalt's the name we heard on the intercept." "So what about it?" "There's definitely something there." "Doesn't show up on Google Earth or even Shadownet." "But if we gaze through the eyes of the Black Bird..." "Area 50 3/4." "That's it." "That's where Amanda is." "I'm going." "No, you're not." "We stopped the assassination." "Maryam Hasan is still alive." "I thought this was the last one." "It is, but it's not over yet." "Amanda texted Smith from this place." "When I get her, then it's over." "She did something to you." "You said so yourself." "Said Amanda scrambled your brain in that chair that I pulled you out of." "What if this is what's driving you?" "No, I said that she may have." "That's why I need you to come with me." "In case I stop being myself." " Birkhoff..." " Don't even need to ask." "You won't be the only one looking out for her." "Thanks." "I mean, can you really picture me as a..." "What did she call it?" "A special envoy." "Testifying before Congress, running around holding press conferences." "Absolutely I can." "To me, Alexandra Udinov's always been a cover." "A bad cliche." "I suppose some of us see you differently." "Alex, of all the people in here, you're the only one that has an actual life to go back to after all of this is over." "I think it's wonderful that she's offered you a job." "I'd find out more." "And by the way, Alexandra is not a cover." "She's you." "25% on the satellites?" "I can't hold the hack with that." "It's the best we could do with secondary service." "Not good enough." "Mikey and Nikita are about to break into a Shop facility uninvited." "The last time we tried to do that" "Okay, I will go down and reconfigure." "Stop." "Don't--don't do that." "I can..." "I can make it work." "Seymour, I understand your concern." "Believe me, I do." "That's not it." "If we really are done with this place, and it looks like we might be..." "Where do we go after this?" "Where?" "What I'm trying to say is..." "Is..." "We, right?" " Seymour" " I just need to know." "Of course." "Cool." "'Cause things might get kinda hectic out there." "I just wanna make s" "Shut up." "They've reached the perimeter." "Yeah." " Perimeter's clear." " I haven't seen one patrol." "Yeah, that's what scares me." "Let's have a look through the Shop's eye in the sky." "Whoa, stop." "Everybody stop." "What?" "What?" "I don't see anything." "Pressure sensors all over." " What do they trigger?" " Let's not find out." "Birkhoff, guide us in." "Okay." "Follow my lead." "Oh, that's not terrifying." "Just follow the fence on the left." "The system's fighting me." "I've tapped into the security network." "You got it?" "Got it." ""Velcome."" "All right, guys, it looks like they have some automated countermeasures here, so watch your six." "And your seven, eight, and nine." "They kept people here." "Michael." "Please, please, don't do this." "Don't do this, please." "You already know it works." "Please don't!" "Birkhoff, I thought you said you had their security." "Which node are those cannons on?" "C17, but they're re-routing." "Just give me a second!" "Help me, please." "Please." "Whatever that is, don't do it." "Where's Amanda?" "Where is she?" "Guys, I can't hold these cannons down." "You gotta get gone." "Let's go!" "The response time is too fast." "They're gonna get locked in." " Michael, you're hit." " Yeah, I'm all right." " Shut it down!" " I can't." "The system knows it's been compromised." " Birkhoff" " Just give me a second." "We don't have it!" "Come on." "There." "Can we hurry this up?" "You field agents and your drama." "Now I know where Seymour gets it from." "Dr. Loren Tolcher." "You've been a busy bee." "That man you killed back at the lab, how'd he end up there?" "My guess is that you bought him." "Is that why your people tried to kill Maryam Hasan?" "She put a dent in your little guinea pig supply." "It makes her a priority target, doesn't it?" "I don't have a target." "I'm just a biologist." "What does Amanda want with your work?" "I don't know who that is." "What about your experiments?" "Our guy says you're using some kind of micro particle in this fluid?" "Nanoparticle." "Don't pretend to understand my work." "I miss this place, by the way." "Division was one of our best proving grounds." "Such a waste." "You don't have enough test subjects for your little virus?" "A virus?" "You need to crawl out of the 20th century." "You should be careful with that." "There's only one antidote, and it's the blue one." "I think I get it." "Ah!" "Are you insane?" "Depends on who you ask." "You need to administer the antidote now!" "Not until you tell me what Amanda's doing at Cobalt River." "She came by earlier today to inspect the facility." "So you do know her." "She's planning to use the nanotoxin on a high-profile victim." "That's all I know!" "I swear!" " Yeah?" "Who is it?" " I don't know!" "I just design!" "I don't implement!" "Please." "They know Cobalt was compromised." "I'm a liability now." " You want this?" " Yeah!" "Tell me how it works." "Haemo-plasmic nanotoxin." "The particles are introduced into the bloodstream, and when triggered, it leads to acute vascular degeneration." "English." "Every blood vessel in the body explodes inside you!" "It's an upgrade to the kill chip, you idiots!" "No surgery required." "Inject the nanos, hit the trigger." "What trigger?" "The button you had?" "A focused microwave frequency." "Aimed anywhere in the world." "Give me the antidote!" "I swear that's all I know!" "Okay." "Good talk." "Seymour, the satellite just re-engaged its communications array." "It's emitting a signal burst..." "Toward us." "I don't like the sound of that." "Let's cut the uplink." "No!" "Michael!" "Officially done dissecting Shop property." "I prefer the car." "We should incinerate the body." "Not until we confirm his story." "I believe it's confirmed." "It is more than a virus." "Nanites that mimic human cells with a micro-dose of toxin." "You could have it in your bloodstream, and no one would know." "Only if you knew what you were looking for." "No symptoms till you turn on the microwave, and then bam!" "Blood pudding." "So it was the button at the facility." "Only this time, it was Amanda pushing it from somewhere else." "Even if it was her, how would she know that you injected him?" "Birkhoff, check his inner ear." "Amanda once exposed Alex by putting a cochlear implant in another agent's ear." "Maybe she did it again." "Okay." "Got something." "I'm reading it." "This is much more advanced than an implant." "It looks as if it was injected directly into the tympanic cavity." "Kind of like a permanent comm device." "It's brilliant." "Brilliant and twisted." "She could hear everything." "Okay." "So who's her next target?" "Tolcher said it was high-profile." "And to make that work, she'd have to infect the target first and then kill them with..." "The frequency later." "Ladies and gentlemen, there is no limit to what we can do." "We have made important progress, but the work continues." "Eh, "work" or "battle"?" "What about "struggle"?" "Perfect." "I'm glad you returned." "You didn't let that attack scare you off." "Why should I?" "Hasan?" "She walked away without a scratch." "One scratch." "That shiv." "Smith must have infected her with that." "The whole incident will only garner more publicity." "She'll die tonight." "Tonight?" "She's giving a speech in two hours." "She'll die in front of millions." "And Amanda's gonna pull the trigger." "Alex..." "They're gonna kill her tonight." "If it's triggered by satellite, let's kidnap her, shield her from the signal." "That's not an option." "The signal penetrates underground." "Our best plan is to get the antidote to you." "We have one..." "That we didn't use." "That's gonna be difficult to explain to her." "Well, we dose her without her knowing." "Maybe with a smaller needle, but it's an Op that would take days to plan." "We don't have days." "Alex..." "We gotta think about this and call you back." "Don't take your eyes off Hasan, okay?" "Count on it." " Got it." " Got what?" "Amanda knew exactly when to push that kill button." "But the signal came through their satellite." "Which you already hacked." "Sonya and I were there when the signal came through." "I was able to back-trace it." "There." "Amanda hit the switch at an old aqueduct in downtown Philly." "Connection's still active." "Find Sonya." "Prep for dual operations." "Dual operations?" "You can get the antidote to Alex." "Hasan's bodyguards are not very good." "They know you." "We'll get you back in there." "And what are you gonna do?" "I'm going to Philly." "I have to stop the trigger." "You mean to stop Amanda." "No, that's not what I'm doing, Michael." "Really?" "Then let me go to Philly and you go to New York." "I can't!" "Hasan's bodyguard already saw me in the alley." "I wouldn't even get close." "Michael..." "We can't let this women die." "And I can't lose you either." "Okay." "Okay." "If you get to her before I get to the trigger," "I will stand down." "Or I will wait for you for backup." "Promise?" "Would you like to stay for the talk?" "I would love that." "I can have my people find you a seat." "Madam!" "Some of your supporters have gathered outside." "You did say you want to see them before your speech." "Actually, I would love to hear more about the U.N. job." "My staff can set a lunch for next week." "We'll talk then." "I'm traveling." "Besides, doesn't the U.N. need to have an answer soon?" "The Secretary General can wait." "What matters is that the right person takes up the torch." "Are you sure it's a goa idea to be going out there?" "I have to show them I'm strong." "The world is watching." "Guys, she's heading outside." "I'm five away." "Stay with her, Alex." "Nikita, what's your status?" "I'm on site." " Just stay on the line." " And go slow." "Copy." "I'm waiting on you." "I got no countermeasures, no bogies." "Place is clean." "All right, I'll let you know what I Fi" "What the hell?" "Birkhoff?" "Birkhoff!" "Birkhoff?" "Did you lose her?" "Uh..." "I lost her." "Glad you could make it." "Kill me and you kill yourself." " Where's the trigger?" " The trigger?" "You don't really think this is about Maryam Hasan, do you?" "Nikita, my target is and always has been..." "You." "So..." "Where is everybody?" "You think your guys could get a shot off before I took you out?" "No guys." "It's just you and me." "Right." "Unarmed?" "Oh, I fired my shot weeks ago." "It's just reaching you now." " The chair." " No." "No, no, your brain is fine." "That was just..." "Theater." "Like the car crash that led you to the chip, which then led you to the private satellite where you intercepted the scripted phone call that pointed you to Maryam Hasan." "You planned an entire assassination just to get me here?" "Well, the group does want Maryam dead, which may still happen, depending on Michael or whoever else you sent to New York." "Tell me, did the group have a problem with me taking out Smith for you?" "He was supposed to drop his phone in the alley for you to trace to Cobalt." "But you got a little ahead of him, didn't you?" "Oh, well." "Dr. Tolcher, on the other hand, he did have to die." "I needed you to see firsthand just how the nanotoxins kill so that you can carry out your final mission with clarity." "Final mission?" "You think you can control me with fear?" "Like I haven't been injected with poisons before, Amanda?" "It doesn't have to be injected." "See, the nanotoxins can just as easily be imbedded in carbon-fiber bone." "For example, if one were to receive an artificial limb..." "You didn't really think that hand was free, did you?" "The day I struck an alliance with the group," "I told them to give Michael's hand back with an asterisk." "Like I said, I fired my shot weeks ago." "There is a trigger for Michael that's very close by." "Touch me and Michael dies." "Of course you could have given Michael the antidote, but he's probably using the one dose you have right now." "Hello!" "Hello!" "Thank you!" "Thank you so much!" "It's been a real pleasure." "It means so much to me, thank you." "Oh, it's so wonderful, all your support." "You're wonderful!" " Madam, it's time." " Yeah?" "Thank you all so much." "It has been a pleasure, Alexandra." "Remember..." "You are not what the world or anyone else makes you." "You are what you make yourself." "Thank you!" "Thank you all!" "Yes!" "Yes!" "Birkhoff, we're code red here." "Where's Michael?" "Gun!" "Ah!" "Get inside!" "Birkhoff, do you have Nikita?" "Tell her it's done." "I got nothing, Mikey." "He does wear that white hat well, doesn't he?" "You can save Michael." "All you have to do is carry out one final assassination for me." "Who?" "Your target is Kathleen Spencer, the president of the United States." "Kill the President in the next 24 hours, or Michael dies." "If you complete your mission," "Michael will be provided with the antidote." "Why kill the president?" "I don't care, really." "I'm apolitical." "But the group needs her dead." "Publicly." "I just knew the perfect girl for the job." "The perfect killer." "My most perfect creation." "Now, if you try and get anyone to help you," "Michael dies instantly." "If you try to save or even warn the president," "Michael dies instantly." "There is no one you can turn to." "But do you wanna know the best part?" "You can't even tell the man you love." "He would rather sacrifice himself than watch his beloved commit such a horrible act." "Telling him would be sentencing him to death." "And that is something even you can't live with." "The world is about to see you for who you really are, Nikita, and there is nothing you can do about it." "Even if I do this..." "Even if Michael lives..." "We'll never be together again." "My life is over." "No, silly." "The President's life is over." "Your life will go back to what it should be." "You think you're a hero?" "You think you're better than me?" "You are what I made you, now and forever." "There." "Now I can track you and hear everything you do." "Run along home and get started on mission prep." "Good girl." "I managed to get Shadownet interlaced at 75%." "However" "Seymour." "What did you do?" "I figured since we opened Pandora's box," "I might as well dig to the bottom." "I pinged some of their other locations." "And?" "This would be the pong." "We've been operating under the assumption that the Shop is an American think tank." "This tells me they're a hell of a lot bigger." "What happened?" "They kicked us out of their system." "Do you think they know we were looking?" "They know." "The question is, do they care?" "Nikki." "You made it." "Why didn't you call in?" "I just wanted to get back." "Where's Michael?" "Uh, medical, last I checked." "Okay." "Oh, thank God!" "Hi." "What happened?" "Uh, the place was empty." "Just a maze." "Bunch of twists and turns." "I think she just wanted me to get lost, buy her some time so she could win." "Guess she didn't know who she was messing with, did she?" " So she's still out there." " For now." "And we'll get her." "The important thing is that we saved Maryam." "She's an incredible woman." "So strong." "Like someone else I know." "I thought I lost you." "What is it?" "Nikita?" "You're right." "Okay, something is wrong." "About moving on with our lives." "Let's do it." "Let's get married." "You ask me what I wanted." "That's what I want." "Yeah, okay." "Still got those plane tickets?" "Yeah, let me just go confirm." "I'll catch up with you." "I" "I just have a headache." "I'm gonna find something for it." "Sure."
