All language subtitles for 01-Deja Vu All Over Again

The crime that|got Section's attention,

the reason I'm here?|I didn't do it.

Well, that may be true.

But what the hell|difference does it make now?

Suppose I was framed|in the first place

because they wanted me here?

If you won't help me,|will you at least|not interfere?

Would you do that much for me?

What if you don't like|what you find?

That night ruined my life.

I did what I was told.

You work in Admin?

Yeah.|Good.|So you can get the file.

It's too risky,|for both of us.

I need to know why I'm here.

Dead?

The man who was helping me|this morning.

(SEAGULLS CAWING)

Michael.

What are we waiting for?

We're surrounded.

OPERATIONS: There's a bond|between them that can only|be broken one way.

(BEEPING)

What's wrong?|I don't know.

(CLEARING THROAT)

Mick Schtoppel?|To a few, yeah.

But why?

Well, I needed to investigate|Section One.

You had to have someone|on the inside.

Of course I did.

Ready when you are, sir.

Nikita.

JONES: We discussed this,|Nikita.

And you know where I stand.

It's not the way.

This decision is mine.

And mine alone.

I'll make my own decision|regarding my fate.

NIKITA: I'm sorry.|You're not ready.

You'll stay in Section,

where your status will be|reviewed in seven years.

I'm transferring you|to the Farm.

You're gonna become|a teacher.

MICHAEL:|I've betrayed Section.

I've put your well-being|ahead of everything else.

I have no choice|but to recommend

your cancellation.

My work's done here,|Mr. Jones.

Good job.

I'll see you|back at Center.

Why did you break protocol?

I wasn't ready to see you die.

Are you out?

No. I've got to get back.

But you can make it.

Is that what you want?

I don't love you.

I never did.

(WOMAN SPEAKING FRENCH)

**(BIG EXIT PLAYING)

* Look out ahead *

* I see danger come *

* I want a pistol *

OPERATIONS:|I can't let you leave|without a going-away present.

Some advice.

You think you're going|to start a new life?

You think you're leaving|the violence and the fear|behind?

You're very much mistaken.

Truth is,|you were sheltered here.

The dangers in Center|are far worse

because they're|far more subtle.

Be especially careful|of Mr. Jones.

He's not what he seems.

* He told me straight *

* "You gotta leave *

* "It's getting late" *

* Too many cops *

* Too many guns *

* All trying to do something *

* No one else has done *

* Baby, baby *

* Ain't it true *

* I'm immortal *

* When I'm with you *

* But I want a pistol *

* In my hand *

* I wanna go to *

* A different land **

(JONES TALKING INDISTINCTLY)

You sent for me?|Yes.

You recommend|a matrix organization|for Section Six. Why?

Flexibility.|Most of their problems|involve slow reaction time.

I've had a dozen people|look at this,

they're all more|experienced than you.

And they all argue strongly|against matrix.

They're wrong|and you're right?

I think so.

Yes. Yes, so do I.

Michelle, could you get|copies of Nikita's report|to the committee?

Yes, sir.

I also have some|recommendations|for Section One.

Yeah, things are|unsettled there as it is.

We had an agreement,|Mr. Jones.

All in good time, Nikita.|All in good time.

Now,|if there's nothing else...

Just the matter of why|I was brought into Section|in the first place.

We've had|this discussion before.|There's no future in it.

I am going to find out|one way or the other.

This meeting is over.

(SCREAMING)

A new device.

It affects|the vocal chords.

After two minutes,|the effect is permanent.

We have similar devices

for the retina, the tongue,

eardrums,

olfactory glands.

Wait.

You're a young, healthy man.

You could live|another 40 years.

That's a long time

without taste,|smell, sight or sound.

One last chance, Mr. Milov.

Answer truthfully,|or spend the rest of your life

in a dark, silent cave.

The Red Cell substation|at Minsk was relocated.

Where is the new site?

(SPEAKING RUSSIAN)

O'Brien,|your record is impressive.

Thanks.|It's not a compliment,|that's a complaint.

You know|who you're replacing?

Michael Samuelle.

The most remarkable|field operative

we've had here|in the last 10 years.

His record was spectacular,|so impressive won't cut it.

You'll have to kick it up|a notch, starting now.

We're looking for a new|Red Cell substation.

We've interrogated|two field operatives.

Both cracked.

Both seem to be|telling the truth.

So what's the problem?

They gave different answers.

One said Moscow,|the other Saratov.|Your thoughts?

You run a background check|on the operatives?

Of course.

Red Cell would've|designed each story|for optimum credibility,

given the respective profiles|of the operatives.

So?

So, run a reverse sim|on each op.

Combined with our database|on Red Cell,

we should be able to|triangulate the new location

with a certainty|of 80 percent.

Maybe more.

Report to Ordnance,|pick up your weapons.

JONES: Red Cell moved|a substation recently.

Section One|got conflicting intel|from interrogated operatives.

Yes, I saw the report.

Operations|came up with a rather

ingenious analysis|using reverse sims.

He came up with|the new location.|Baku.

That's out of Red Cell's|territory.

Yes, their relationship|with terrorist organizations

in that region|is rather dicey.

That's all right.

And yet,|they decide to open

a substation there.|The question is why?

One name kept cropping up|in all the sims.

Josef Dolmatov.|Do you remember him?

Cairo, three years ago.

I went undercover|as his bodyguard.

Yes, you made|quite an impression.

I'm sure he'll do business|with you again.

I know,|your days in the field|are supposed to be over.

But Red Cell's|becoming active again,|and we need to find out why.

This is the best way.

It's temporary.|One mission only.

You report in the morning.|He's expecting you.

OPERATIONS: This is Nikita.

She'll be joining us|on a temporary basis.

Some of you know her already.

Quinn, for instance,

spent two days as her prisoner|while Nikita impersonated her|in Section.

I'm sure|you haven't forgotten that.

No, I haven't forgotten.

And O'Brien, Nikita's the one|who brought you into Section.

No doubt you have|a lot to catch up on.

The rest of you|may know Nikita|by reputation only.

You may have heard|she was a spy for Center.

That for three years,

she reported our every word

and deed behind our backs.

And in the end,|she passed judgment

on people who thought of her

as a friend or colleague.

Two of them are dead,|another forcibly retired.

All that is true.

But whatever you might think|of Nikita personally,

it will not interfere|with your work.

Is that clear?

That's all.

By the way,

welcome back.

Josef Dolmatov.

Arms dealer,|money launderer,

general facilitator|for terrorist activities|in Northern Africa.

Our reverse sims point to him.

Subsequent investigation|validated that result.

Intel indicates|a high rate of interaction|among terrorist organizations

who normally|have little contact.

Decrypted communique|refer to an event|five days from now.

What event?

My analysis indicates|a sort of summit meeting

with representatives|from several groups.

Perhaps an attempt|to bury mutual hostility

and focus on|anti-Western activities.

That would explain Red Cell's|new substation being built

outside its normal territory.

Exactly.

The analysis|is quite competent.

What are your recommendations?

Obviously the summit|has to be prevented.

That would be premature.

Facilitate|and then destroy.

Encourage the meeting,|attack after it convenes.

That way|we get the maximum|number of hostiles.

Yes, of course.

OPERATIONS: O'Brien|and Nikita will draw up|an infiltration profile.

Support teams will receive|their preliminary briefing

on their panels by 6:00.

You're new to the job.|It takes time.

Go to hell.

I'm sorry.

I gave you an opportunity.

You looked bad.

Worse, you made me look bad.

It won't happen again.

If there's anything I can do|to make up for it...

There may be something.

How well did you know|Michael Samuelle?

Not well.

What do you think of him?

He's dead.

Think again.

Have you ever seen|him and Nikita together?

Yes.

Then you know.

He loved her,|and she loved him.

Her report said|it was all an act,

part of her mission|for Center.

Mr. Jones may believe that.|I don't.

The Abeyance Mission...|A sham.

She could no more|have killed him|than I could...

Than you could|have killed Madeline.

What do you want me to do?

Prove that Michael|is still alive.

If I can prove to Mr. Jones

that Nikita|lied about Michael,

it'll cast doubt|on her entire report.

I'll get on it right away.

Your file said|you spent some time|at the Madrid station.

That's right.

I was there, I think we met.

Did we?

I don't remember.

The mission's been moved up.|We leave in half an hour.

I know.|Everything will be ready.

On those infrared sights,

I'd like you to knock down|the contrast

a notch and a half.

That's against regs.|I know.

But most operatives prefer it.

Do it anyway.|It's a simple adjustment.

Let me tell you something.

Maybe that old guy|was wrapped around|your finger, but I'm not.

I do things by the book.

You got a problem with that,|tell Operations.

Somehow, I don't think|he'll back you up.

What Operations said|about you spying for Center,

is that true?

Yes, it is.

I thought it would|give me a chance|to make some changes.

Such as?

Such as doing away|with some of the worst|features in this place,

constant surveillance,

the use|of abeyance operatives,

that sort of thing.

Our own little|Florence Nightingale,|right here in Section One.

Nikita?

My name's Kristov,|I'm-- I'm Level One,

I've just been active|a few months.

I've got a mission.|I--I know. I'm-- I'm sorry.

I just wanted to tell you,

I know it sounds corny,|especially in this place.

But to a lot of us|you're a hero.

If you're really trying|to make things better,|don't quit.

We're counting on you.

I'm in position. Ten seconds.

The SAT scan|shows denser security|than our last sweep indicated.

NIKITA: Wet or wired?

Both.|This might be impossible.

(GROANING)

At least let me|disable the beams.

No. Stay with the profile.

(ALARM BLARING)

We'll need central security,

plus modular nodes|for each group.

No overlap|on the friendlies?

No. I don't want|to take any chances.

If we have to subcontract,|so be it.

(INTERCOM BEEPING)

What is it?

MAN: The perimeter's|been penetrated.

Have you ID'd a target?

Negative.|We're performing a sweep.

Keep me informed.

(ALARM BLARING)

What the hell is going on?

(DOGS BARKING)

Find out.

HENRIK: Perhaps|it's a false alarm.

Even so, it's unacceptable.

How can we provide security|for the conference|if we can't...

Hello, Josef.

You've forgotten?

Cairo, three years ago.

Nikita?

What are you doing here?

Looking for work.

And from what I've just seen,|you could really use the help.

What do you say?

The truth is I can use|some extra muscle.

Red Cell has called|a meeting of other groups|with similar goals.

Sort of a terrorist|convention.

More or less.

I've offered to facilitate|the meeting.

I'm in position.

I'm into the main building|climate control.

I've found your corridor.

You need to enter|in three minutes.

What about the wall?

I'm blocking the beams now.

Go.

(GRUNTS)

(DOGS BARKING)

(HIGH-PITCHED WHINING)

(YELPING)

(BUZZING)

What's the weather report?

The temperature differential|has narrowed sufficiently|as of

now.

You're invisible to infrared.

Take the north stairwell|to the second floor.|You're clear all the way.

I offer you the same|as in Cairo.

Plus 10 percent.

And the same for my partner?

Partner?

He's into technology.|I'm more visceral.

Together we're very effective.

I don't like|unknown quantities.

I'll introduce you to him.|He should be here any minute.

He's just going to|stroll into my office?

That's right.

No doubt you have|a low opinion|of our abilities.

But your success|was an exception,|I promise you.

And as far as hiring|someone I don't know,|this late in the game...

(KNOCK ON DOOR)|Come in.

Marco, Josef.|Josef, Marco.

I reviewed the files|of his last mission.

Seventeen people|in the structure|when it exploded.

DNA traces were recovered|for all but three.|One of them was Michael.

Suggestive,|but not conclusive.

I also ran a back trace|on Nikita during the mission.

Four hours,|six minutes unaccounted for.

Just the amount of time needed|to reach the mission site|and return.

The chance of both occurrences|happening randomly?

Less than|one in a quarter million.

Formalize it. I'll take it|to Center tomorrow.

That would be premature.

We should facilitate|and destroy.

If Michael's alive,

sooner or later|they'll find each other.

When they do,

we'll deliver|them both to Mr. Jones|in a nice little package.

You're learning.

I have an exceptional teacher.

Which one of these dirtbags|are we supposed to be|protecting?

A man named Rustam Federov,

he's the chief strategist|for Black Moon.

Nikita.|Yeah?

Be advised, Federov is sick.

Black Moon has sent a man|named, uh, Piket in his place.

Piket...|Please enter.|He's on his way.

No problem. What is it?

Piket and I crossed paths|in Marrakech, two years ago.

Does he know you were|with Section?|Oh, yeah.

How much contact?|A few minutes.|Maybe he forgot.

Welcome, Mr. Piket.|I'm Nikita, my colleague.

Let me show you to the room.

You should be a princess|or a film star, hmm?

Not a bodyguard.

It's the 21st century,|Mr. Piket.

Women have many talents.

I would love to know|more about yours.

I don't mix business|and pleasure.

By all means then,|let's forget business.

Your room.

Do you smoke?

What are you doing?|He recognized you immediately.

I saw it in his eyes.

(BEEPING)

Well, that should be enough.

We've got it.

Good.|The meeting's in four hours.

We need the masks|in three and a half.

You'll have them.

But there's not enough time|for a voice synthesizer.

We'll get by.|Just get us the masks.

You forgot something.

An abeyance op.

Or we just use a silent drop.

Too risky.

Nikita, reform Section|after the mission.

We need an abeyance op.

Quinn. Protocol six.

I'm punching up|the abeyance list now.

Nikita.

Got the masks?

Yeah, that'll do.

Wait.|I only have|a two-minute window.

It just closed.

Nikita?

(GUN FIRING)

These will be fine.

I'm triggering the alarm.|You'll have 10 seconds.

We'll be ready.

(ALARM BLARING)

What's going on?

NIKITA: He came in|through the vent.

He killed Marco.

Mr. Piket, are you all right?

He's fine. And your|security system needs work.

Mr. Piket, I don't know|who's behind this,

but I swear to you|I'll find out.

And when I do,|they'll be punished.

It was a false alarm.|Mr. Piket is fine.

The meeting will go on|as scheduled.

Quinn, they're all here.

How long?|17 minutes.

Guest list?|Just as we'd hoped.

Goff, Bauer, French, Terik,|a dozen other leaders.

This will put us ahead|five years.

Relay the signal.

Gentlemen. Gentlemen.

This is an unusual occasion,

unique in fact.

Because Red Cell originated|the idea of this coalition,

I have asked their|representative, Mr. Goff,

to be the first speaker.

GOFF: On behalf of Red Cell,

I thank each of you|for being here this evening.

Put simply,

our hope is

we can all forget|our differences

long enough to create|a reign of terror

that will bring|the West to its knees.

Wait! Mr. Piket,|is there a problem?

I told you, the attempt|on your life will be avenged.

If there's something else,|let's talk.

(BOMBS WHISTLING)

I'm afraid your departure|has been delayed.

And why is that?

Three Western embassies|in Pakistan were bombed|about an hour ago.

What does that have|to do with me?

The bombings were traced|to Willem Goff.

That's impossible.|Goff's dead.|Apparently not.

He died at Dolmatov's.

I saw it myself,|and your intel confirmed it.

It seems you were wrong,

and so was I.

How is that possible?

I don't know.

But Mr. Jones is waiting|for us in Systems.

JONES: And it's not only Goff.

Bauer, French,|and a dozen others

seem to be very much alive|and active

since they supposedly|died at the conference.

While you were patting|yourselves on the back,|the enemy was hard at work.

Instead of being years ahead,|you are weeks behind.

And weeks can turn|into forever very quickly.

It won't happen.|I'll make sure.

I'm not overly impressed|by that at the moment.

I am deeply disappointed|in both of you.

And you will|both stay on the job|until this is put right.

Nikita, I am formally|assigning you to Section.

You will live and work there|until this is cleaned up.

And you will keep your|personal agenda out of it.

Nikita is your deputy

and you will treat her|accordingly.

I'll expect your first|progress report in 48 hours.

Wait. Our agreement.

This is hardly the time.

It's never the time,|Mr. Jones.

You've been putting it off|for months.

Nikita...|I came back to Section|three years ago

because you made|certain promises.

It's time you kept them.

Is that a threat?

Only if you feel threatened

by being asked|to keep your word.

Am I in command or is she?

You are in operational|command, as always.

In certain matters|of internal policy,

Nikita has a degree|of independence.

Now, in the meantime,

what I suggest|is that you both|listen to recordings

of The Mikado|or Pirates of Penzance.

Gilbert and Sullivan.

They hated each other,

but they made|beautiful music together.

So will you.

(DOOR OPENING)

Walter.

Thank you for coming.

Didn't have much choice.

You're on inactive status.

Strictly speaking,|you could have refused.

I did what I did because|I thought in the long run,

I could change things|for the better.

And you just happened to|claw your way to the top|in the meantime?

Is that what you think?

What am I supposed to think?|Madeline's gone...

Michael's gone.|You're number two.

Believe me,|it's not my choice.

But while I'm here|I intend to make some changes.

Good luck.

I was hoping you'd help.

How?

By coming back|to your old job.

I thought I violated protocol|too many times.

So did I. I was wrong.

Would it matter|if I apologized|for deceiving you?

It's all|water under the bridge.

Anyway, it's not too bad|where I am.

A little teaching,|tinker around with|a few new gadgets.

Out of the pressure cooker.

You could help me|change things.

I've done my stint|as Dear Abby.

Let somebody else|have a turn.

The new guy's|not in your class.

He'll learn.

I guess that's it then.

Guess so.

Suppose I said|you are the best man|I ever met,

and another day in Section|without you seems unbearable.

Would that matter?

It might.

(WOMAN SPEAKING FRENCH)
