Previously on Nikita

I may have a lead on Nikita.

Oversight is thinking about executing Clean Sweep.

- The hell is that? - Years ago, Percy created Division.

Oversight insisted he build in a failsafe.

There's a tanker of VX gas tapped into Division's ventilation system.

After Oversight pulls the trigger, the place will be a mass grave.

- Why is Oversight doing this? - Division has become expendable.

You're planning an escape, which we both know is impossible.

There is no way out of here.

No way that you can see.

But you will.

We have to get out of here now. - On your knees!

I take orders from the same man I always have.

That's one of the guardians.

That's why they were gathering, their target was Oversight.

Percy.

Release Percy, or you eliminate the members of Oversight.

That's correct.

Sounds good to me.

Keep listening.

Failure to comply will result in the activation of Clean Sweep.

Which means now. It won't take me more than 30 seconds to launch the program.

If you attempt evacuation, we trigger it immediately.

- How would they know if she evac'd? - Roan. Percy's got him on the inside.

- Guys. - And everyone inside your facility dies.

Percy will give you instructions for the next step.

There's a flaw in your plan.

Really?

If Clean Sweep releases VX gas through the facility...

...everyone dies, including you.

I can live with that.

The captain goes down with the ship.

- Percy's bluffing. - He's not.

My mother told me Clean Sweep could be activated from anywhere.

Yeah, but it can be deactivated from the ventilation control.

Percy would have thought of that.

Get me an EOD unit down here right away.

I need to get through this door.

There has to be a way to stop this.

There is. Kill the guardian, grab the trigger.

Whoa! What are we talking about? Saving Division?

Saving lives.

Lives that are trying to kill us. Wanna save them so they can keep trying?

It's not about saving Division. It's about ending this.

Our way. Not Percy's.

We're gonna need directions to Oversight.

- I'll tell you on the way there. - Heh.

You tried to kill us, think you're along for the ride?

I was just trying to protect my family. Still am.

Sean, we're going out there to save her.

You'll need more than just her location.

You'll need a tactical breakdown of the perimeter and the interior.

You need me there.

You're holding four prominent Americans at gunpoint. Right now, no one knows.

The second you touch the trigger you create national news.

And a nationwide manhunt.

Think about it.

Oh, I appreciate your concern, but Percy's got a plan.

Was it Percy's plan to end up in a cell?

No. He was betrayed.

Like hell. Percy's the traitor.

He sold out his country, and one day he'll sell you out.

Only you're too stupid to see it. Unh!

Anyone else got a salient point they'd like to share?

It'll take Phelps' team two hours to dismantle that bomb.

You haven't got that long.

I won't give you Division.

You say that as though you had a choice.

I'll let you go, in exchange for the Clean Sweep trigger.

Go where?

That would be your choice.

But if you try to return to Division, I'll have you shot on sight.

Hmm...

You taught me a good negotiation...

...is one in which both parties leave slightly disappointed.

You get to live, disappointing to me...

...I remain in control of Division, which is disappointing to you.

Queen of the understatement.

State it any way you like. These are my terms.

You're just the navigator. No weapon, you listen to everything we say.

- You got a T-shirt I can borrow? - No.

Birkhoff, please, think of a way to remotely deactivate the trigger.

I told you, I would have seen this system if it existed.

It's not enough to pump gas in there, you have to close off the vents...

...shut down the elevators. All of that takes power.

And I personally re-tailored the electrical grid when I was...

- Was there. - What?

- The old generator. - The emergency back-up?

No, the generator that used to power the missile base.

Can you hack it?

Only way to shut it down is cut the hard line.

- Up close and personal. - We can't get in there.

I can.

Alex, that place is a gas chamber waiting to happen.

If I hadn't sent that bank transfer...

...the guardians wouldn't be where they are right now. I need to do this.

And I'm the only one who can.

Okay. Alex heads to Division.

We head to Oversight.

Can I speak with you for a second?

So that's two guardians, Amanda, and one rogue Navy Seal.

A lot of variables for one mission.

At least we know what the variables are.

Right?

Contact the safe house in Brighton Beach. Put them on standby.

- Thank you for coming down, sir. - What is it? I'm busy.

We've had some success tracking the guardian we lost in Basel.

Spyder picked up on his image in Amsterdam.

Where he met another man we also believe to be one of Percy's guardians.

Do you believe they have the black boxes?

I assume so. The two men traveled to Brussels via rail...

...where they chartered a private jet to Newark International.

I've yet to pinpoint their current location...

...but I'd like to retask the team assigned to hunt Alexandra...

...and put them on the trail.

So now black boxes are more important than Alexandra?

They both hold secrets about you, sir. Secrets we want to destroy.

Just make sure that your team hits their mark this time.

Your master and I have reached a new agreement.

There'll be no new agreement.

Talk to him yourself.

Hold your position. I'm coming to you.

Those were the perimeter guards.

Well, this is definitely the right place.

Was a safe house during the Revolutionary War.

Eight thousand square feet, three stories, including the cellar.

And at least one point of egress on every side.

Is our line still open?

Keep moving.

Sounds like they're moving the hostages.

Everyone take a seat.

Make yourself comfortable.

Why are you moving us into the study?

Sit down.

- I'm going in. - No, wait.

There are two enhanced killers in there who can hear a pin drop.

If we go in hot, they will hear.

Everyone in that house and Division will die.

Sean, we have to be careful. Clear the perimeter.

Set up two long-distance shots. They're the only ones we'll get.

- It'll be faster if we split up. - No.

We do the sweep together.

This would be a lot easier if you just trusted me.

It's not about trust, it's about making sure you got this down.

- This ain't like plugging in a toaster. - Ugh.

Once more. You get down under the silo, what are you gonna do?

I hit up the generator access panel.

I plug your phone in, your program drains the power.

Keep in mind this has a three-phase transformer...

...with a four-wire output, okay? The gray wire is...

Are you listening to me?

Yeah, it's all on your magic phone, right?

Just trying to give you some context.

Here.

This should get you around the internal scramblers.

If I had this last year, I wouldn't have used that shell program.

Have fun storming the castle.

By the way, what the hell are you gonna tell Amanda?

Exactly what she wants to hear.

I will confirm our arrival once we reach the rendezvous.

Actually, Lawrence will.

I want you on base, monitoring the perimeter...

...in case there are more surprises waiting for us.

I'll track the escort team but I want updates every 15 minutes...

...confirming your status.

He may try to talk to you, or convince you, manipulate you.

As long as you know that everything out of his mouth is a lie.

I will miss you.

Percy's on the move.

I had to meet him halfway.

I'm more concerned about the problem inside Division.

We have a saboteur.

Something's moving.

We have to stop them. They're gonna hear.

- Why didn't you shoot him? - I wanted to.

- Make it look like the guard did it but... - Different gun.

The guardian would have heard, shot everyone.

No way.

You think I wanted to let him die?

You don't know me.

Lawrence, at this pace...

...we have you at the Gates House in approximately 30 minutes.

Does that match your estimate?

Affirmative.

I want a progress report from Phelps.

Looking at four detonator cords all rigged to an electrical housing unit.

We'll need to open this thing up first before we can disable the fuses.

No guesses, just results.

I'm picking up a bogey on our thermal image scanners.

Approaching the external perimeter.

I have Alexandra Udinov at the northeast gate.

She's requesting entry.

Bring her in.

Eric Lawrence.

You were looking at 25 years in Sing Sing...

...for smashing a man's head against a telephone poll...

...until his neck snapped.

Granted, he did rape your sister...

...but there was no material evidence that would have led to an appeal.

And then I stepped in. Got you out, gave you back your life.

Taught you how to fight for freedom.

Now look at you.

Benjamin Greenwood.

Got you out of an institution for the criminally insane.

Adrian Paticki...

...wrongfully sentenced but on death row.

I saved all your lives.

Which is why it pains me...

...that you would demonstrate more loyalty to Amanda...

...than you would to me.

I was beginning to wonder if I'd ever hear from you.

I know. I have a lot to explain.

I know you went into Russia, Alex.

I warned you about attacking Semak without my help...

...before you were ready.

- I know. - You're lucky you survived.

- I know. - How did you make it out?

- It couldn't have been easy. - I got in on my own...

- ...and I got out the same way. - Hmm.

But you were right about Semak.

It was too much for me to handle on my own.

Especially because of what I found there.

- Please tell me you didn't know. - Know what?

My mother, Katya...

...she's alive.

I don't understand.

Semak must have made a deal with Percy.

He's the only reason I'm back.

I don't care if I have to torture it out of him, I want to know why he lied to me.

I'm afraid that's going to be difficult right now.

I just wish I had more time to convince you that what you're doing is wrong.

It just doesn't seem fair.

Oh, Well.

There's something wrong.

How close are we? - We've interrupted the current...

...of the detonator hub...

...but we still need to make sure there aren't any tilt vibration switches.

Time is not a luxury you have. Take too long, you may not live.

How the hell did Percy get a weapon?

Percy has a silent partner inside Division.

Right now, Roan is my prime suspect.

That would be a good guess.

I've been following his movements...

...but I'm concerned he may be collaborating with others.

In fact, the only person I know he's not working with is you.

You've been away.

Do me a favor, keep an eye on him, report back to me.

Once I know who he's working with...

...I intend to drown him in a pool of his own acid.

It's me. We have a problem.

- With the generator? - With Percy.

He was on his way to you and he took out the alpha team escorting him.

- Where's he now? - He disabled the vehicle tracker.

- What are you gonna do? - Just focus on your objective.

Now that Amanda's lost her leverage...

...nothing's stopping him from hitting that trigger.

Alex, you are our best shot at stopping Clean Sweep.

Enjoying the countryside?

Ah, the ragweed. Doesn't agree with me.

Take an allergy pill.

Roan's gun came in handy.

What about the hostages?

Tell them to sit tight. I can't wait to see them.

I've spent my life in the military.

I understand what it is to be beholden to your CO.

That sense of duty, obeying the orders...

...following him into the jaws of death.

You don't have to get caught up in this war.

You have options. If you had a little money in your pocket...

...more than a little, you wouldn't have to, uh, answer to Percy anymore.

According to news reports, a small recreational plane...

...crashed just outside of Saratoga National Park.

The pilot, Darren Smalls, had signed up two passengers...

...for skydiving, but only his body was recovered from the wreckage.

The names of the passengers match the names on the fake passports...

- mused by the guardians. - They jumped out of this plane?

Where could they be headed?

The only structure of note within a 20-kilometer radius of the crash...

...is an old historic landmark. The Gates House.

Satellite imagery of the location reveals several vehicles outside.

- I think they're there right now. - Is the team on their way?

En route as we speak.

You sure we shouldn't be wearing bomb suits?

This thing goes off in this corridor...

...concussion alone would turn us into jelly.

Plus, the suit makes my hands sweat.

One down, three to go.

I'm gonna head up...

...grab some magnetized soldering wire.

Hi, Percy.

You. Here. What are the odds?

Tell your guardians to give up the Clean Sweep trigger and Oversight.

And you may get out of here alive.

Michael. I see you're embracing the whole rebel-without-a-cause motif.

Right down to the hairstyle.

- Can I shoot him now? - Not yet.

I crashed your little guardian party in Amsterdam.

The boxes are gone, along with your insurance policy.

How do you think we got here? We followed your boys.

Even if that were the case, the guardians have strict instructions...

...to pull the trigger and gas Division if anything happens to me.

I'm in. I'm headed to the silo.

Five-by-five. Amanda give you any trouble?

No. She's freaked out about Percy and Roan. She asked me to go spy on him.

- But you're blowing her off right? - Yep.

- What are you doing down here? - Oh, no. That's not good.

I was actually looking for you.

I know you were there the night Division raided my family's home.

You said "Mother down," confirming your kill.

But she wasn't dead, was she?

You used a tranquilizer, a little special side mission for Percy.

I wanna know the truth about what happened on that night.

That's not why you're here.

Well, then why the hell are you here?

Oh, just sabotaging Division.

Special little side mission for Percy.

Phelps, is that you?

I feel like I've landed in an alternate universe.

You fighting to save Division.

I don't expect you to understand me, Percy.

I understood your quest for vengeance. Retribution for your fiance.

Do you two talk much about Daniel?

Must be a little awkward since you knew about the kill order...

...and didn't warn her.

If you think anyone's gonna believe your lies, you're wrong.

Owen told me the truth about Daniel.

But does Michael know the truth about you and Owen?

See, that's the look that tells me everything I need to know.

The crack in the foundation. I don't blame you.

She lured you in with the promise of regaining everything you'd lost.

Next thing you know, you're knee deep in Nikita's war with no end in sight.

That's funny, I see an end in sight right here.

Such a commanding presence. It's like she's leading the new crusades.

So many people willing to lay down their lives for you.

Like that poor fool over there.

Sean Pierce.

That's a hell of a get.

I can still see your pimply face on the family Christmas cards.

Looks like the Navy made a man out of you.

You're here for Senator Madeline. Mommy.

Uh-uh!

If I don't answer, Patrick will wonder what's happened to me.

And if he thinks anything's gone wrong...

I have Percy. Give me the trigger and release the hostages or he dies.

How do I know he's not dead already?

- Tell them our demands. - Kill them all but Madeline.

You son of a bitch.

I think we both know they had it coming.

And now that Oversight's out of the way, I'm willing to negotiate.

I'll give you Senator Pierce, if you let me go with the trigger.

Sean.

Cover him.

- We can't go along with this. - We have to.

Giving him the trigger?

If Alex kills the power on site, we're in the clear.

He doesn't know about her, Michael.

- Birkhoff, are you there? - Holy crap, you're alive.

I thought the terminator got you.

He's still after me.

Okay, Birkhoff, I'm at the control panel.

Okay, you're doing great. Now get the phone out.

I lost the phone. Without the program...

It's okay, we can do it manually. It's simple, like unplugging a toaster.

- I thought you said... - I know. I was just being me.

I'll, uh... I'll walk you through it.

You've become a world-class operative, Nikita.

I hope some day you stop trying to run from who you really are.

I'm in your blood for better or worse.

Shut up before I change my mind about blowing your head off.

Clear!

Unidentified agents approaching from the east.

Farewell.

We're experiencing a power outage.

Elevators and main hydraulic lifts are stalled. Scanning for remote exploits.

The first wire you're looking for is red.

Yeah, I see it.

- Russian. - Gogol must've been tracking Patrick.

I'll try and take Sean's position. Cover me.

Negative! Get inside the house!

Gogol agents might be inside. You have to get her out!

I'll stay here and cover him.

Let's go.

Okay, I got the blue one.

Great. You've got one more left.

It's the black one connected to the transformer.

That'll cancel the override

Got it.

Good. Now get out of there.

- Where's Sean? - He's outside.

You're welcome.

Behind you.

- Are you okay? - Yes. Yeah, I'm fine.

Thank you.

This is Admiral Winnick of Southern Command.

Yes. He was.

This is Amanda, confirm Division survived.

Senator, are you all right?

Yes. Percy and his men have left.

- And Clean Sweep, has it been...? - Averted.

Percy must have lost control of the trigger, or it was destroyed.

Whatever the case, I made sure Clean Sweep will never threaten Division.

Shall I send escorts for you and the others?

It's just me.

That's unfortunate.

We'll get to work on a cover story right away to explain their deaths.

Most likely the act of a deranged domestic terrorist.

Yes. Make sure it looks as if they died heroes.

And once things settle down, we need to discuss how to proceed with Division.

Needless to say, after recent events, a low profile is in order.

Absolutely.

We'll discuss it next week in Washington.

It's probably best to keep communications to a minimum.

As you say, we should all keep our heads down.

Amanda...

After all, we wouldn't wanna risk setting off any flags...

...with your colleagues in D.C.

But I promise Division will stay strong and alert.

Good bye.

What's wrong?

It's Amanda. I've lost control of her.

Division's still standing. Clean Sweep failed.

That's good.

Leaves us some options.

Let's get moving.

- How did you...? - Roan.

- Ah. I take it you lost him. - I survived him.

You were right, he was Percy's inside man.

And now he's gone. As is Percy.

What about you, Alex?

Where will you go now?

- I don't know. - Semak is still out there.

So is my mother. And she's with him.

Alex, believe it or not, I still want to help you.

Why?

So you can get a foothold in Zetrov?

Not interested.

You should be.

You threaten the hold Semak has on his empire, that's why he fears you.

Alexandra Udinov's existence has the potential to shatter his world.

Too bad the world thinks Alexandra Udinov is dead.

But what if they were to learn the truth?

If Division's truly gone rogue, you have no choice.

You have to contact the CIA.

What are they gonna do? Send in the Marines?

Division's an army. You'd have a war on your hands.

She's right. Enough people have died.

It's funny. You seem to be so concerned about the body count now.

Didn't bother you when you were sanctioning the hits.

- They were necessary. - I'm sure it seemed necessary...

...in this room, but I was the one who had to pull the trigger.

- You were a soldier. - I was a killer.

You're right. I don't know what it's like.

You had to live in Division, I didn't.

Which is why you're the one who can take it down...

...without exposing it to the public.

I hate to say it, but she has a point.

Exposing Division is just as bad as releasing the black boxes.

This is a person who put a target on our backs.

What if I could fix that? Clear your names?

A presidential pardon.

No. If you reveal your part in this to the president...

- ...you'll go to prison. - No.

I would receive immunity for my silence.

What do you say?

I thought today was gonna be the day it all ended.

Might not have worked out that way, this is the first time...

...I can see a real light at the end of the tunnel.

For all of us.

We're almost there.

Of course Percy is still a problem When is he not?

He's down to Roan and one guardian, thanks to your hit squad.

Then I guess their timing was perfect.

How can I repay you?

Oh.

I can think of a few ways.

Time for that later. We still have business to discuss.

My superiors are no longer an issue.

Yes, we still have my boss to contend with.

The good news on that front is that I think Alexandra...

- ...may be ready to make her return. - And Nikita?

I have a future planned for her too.

It's considerably shorter.
