La Femme Nikita (1997–2001): Season 2, Episode 20 - In Between - full transcript

(Marzio) YOU DIDN'T
HAVE TO KILL HIM!

I'LL KILL YOU! YOU
HEAR ME? YOU'RE DEAD!

YOU'RE DEAD!

LET GO OF ME!

WHAT HAPPENED?

IN ORDER TO GET TO HIM,
WE HAD TO KILL HIS BROTHER.

REALLY? WHO DID IT?

SARRIS.

TELL HIM TO STAY CLOSE.
WE DON'T HAVE MUCH TIME.

YOU'RE WASTING YOUR TIME.

WHY DON'T YOU KILL ME NOW



BECAUSE I'M NOT GIVING
YOU ANYTHING! YOU HEAR ME?

YOU'VE HAD SEVERAL CONVERSATIONS

WITH ABLE GELNER
IN THE LAST MONTH.

TELL ME ABOUT THEM.

YOU DIDN'T HAVE
TO KILL MY BROTHER.

YOU DIDN'T HAVE TO KILL HIM.

BUT WE DID.

AND I'M AFRAID YOU'RE
GOING TO DIE AS WELL.

SO WHY WOULD I
GIVE YOU ANYTHING?

BECAUSE I'M GOING TO GIVE
YOU SOMETHING IN RETURN.

I DON'T UNDERSTAND.
HOW CAN I HELP?

MADELINE WILL FILL YOU IN.

WHAT DO YOU NEED?

JUST TALK TO HIM.



APOLOGIZE FOR
SHOOTING HIS BROTHER.

APOLOGIZE?

YES.

[sighing]

HEY.

LOOK, IT WAS NOTHING PERSONAL.

I... I WAS JUST
TRYING TO DO MY JOB.

ABLE GELNER.

TELL ME ABOUT HIM.

[woman speaking French]

[knocking on door]

♪♪[woman singing in French]

HEY.

HEY, STRANGER.

CARLA.

I COULDN'T BELIEVE IT. I'M
TURNING ONTO COOLIDGE,

AND THERE YOU ARE
CROSSING THE STREET.

YOU SHOULD HAVE STOPPED.

I TRIED. I YELLED OUT THE WINDOW
AND EVERYONE BUT YOU TURNED AROUND.

OH, YEAH, YEAH, YEAH.

WHERE'D YOU GO?

I THOUGHT SOMETHING
HORRIBLE HAD HAPPENED.

NO, I... I HAD TO GO HOME. MY
FAMILY HAD AN EMERGENCY.

IS EVERYTHING OK?

MMM-HMM, IT'S FINE.

CARLA, I WANTED TO SAY SORRY THAT
I HAVEN'T KEPT IN CONTACT WITH YOU.

I JUST... I COULDN'T.

IT'S NO PROBLEM. I'M
HAPPY TO SEE YOU.

SO WHEN DID YOU GET BACK?

ABOUT 3 OR 4 MONTHS.
SO, WHAT ABOUT YOU?

WHY DID YOU MOVE OUT?

I MET SOMEONE.

OH, GOSH!

HIS NAME'S STEVEN, AND
HE'S A COMMODITIES BROKER,

AND WE LIVE IN THIS
GREAT LOFT DOWNTOWN.

NOTHING WRONG WITH THAT.

HE'S A GOOD GUY.
YOU'LL MEET HIM.

IT'S GREAT TO SEE YOU.

YEAH, YOU TOO.

DO YOU WANT A REFILL?

OK.

SO, WHAT ABOUT YOU? WHAT HAVE YOU
BEEN DOING SINCE YOU'VE BEEN BACK?

WHAT HAVE I BEEN DOING?

DID YOU GET A JOB?
ARE YOU SEEING ANYONE?

WHAT'S GOING ON?

UM...

[phone ringing]

NOT A LOT.

HELLO?

(Michael) JOSEPHINE.

YUP.

(Operations) YESTERDAY, IN KUALA
LUMPUR, WE PICKED UP MARZIO ELLIS,

A WELL-CONNECTED DEALMAKER
WHO WORKS THE PACIFIC RIM.

LATELY, HE'S BEEN IN
TOUCH WITH ABLE GELNER,

A MAN WE'VE BEEN
AFTER FOR SOME TIME.

GELNER HAS BEEN DESTABILIZING
FRIENDLY 3RD WORLD COUNTRIES

THROUGH THE USE OF HIS
MASSIVE FINANCIAL RESOURCES.

HE'S ABOUT TO USE THOSE
RESOURCES TO FUND TERRORIST STRIKES

AGAINST CIVILIAN POPULATIONS.

WE NEED TO GET IN WITH HIM,

DISCOVER HIS FINANCIAL
PIPELINE, AND SHUT HIM DOWN.

MICHAEL WILL BE
LEADING THE MISSION.

HE'LL UPDATE YOU AS SOON AS
THE MISSION PROFILE HAS BEEN SET.

MICHAEL, ARE WE ON STANDBY?

YES.

[people chattering]

SIT.

AH, I SEE THE PARTY'S
ALREADY BEGUN.

ABLE GELNER.

PLEASED TO MEET YOU.

PLEASED TO MEET YOU.

UM, WOULD EITHER OF YOU LIKE
SOMETHING TO DRINK OR EAT?

NO.

OK.

UM, MARZIO HAD VERY GOOD
THINGS TO SAY ABOUT YOU.

AND YOU ARE?

NIKITA, MY ATTACHE.

HOW NICE.

WELL, YOU KNOW WHAT
IT IS THAT... THAT I NEED.

MARZIO SAID YOU WISH TO TRANSFER
FUNDS WITHOUT DRAWING ATTENTION.

YES, THAT'S RIGHT. YES.

WE DON'T WANT TO
DRAW ANY ATTENTION.

IF YOU CHOOSE TO
USE MY SERVICES,

YOUR MONEY WILL BE FUNNELED INTO
SEGREGATED OFFSHORE ACCOUNTS.

I STAY AWAY FROM THE CARIBBEAN
AND OTHER MORE VISIBLE HUBS.

I'VE HAD SUCCESS IN EAST AFRICA.

THEY'RE DESPERATE
FOR HARD CURRENCY.

WHAT ABOUT THE, UH, RATES?

YOU COULD DO BETTER IF
YOU'RE WILLING TO TAKE THE RISK.

I'M NOT.

INTERFERENCE IS MINIMAL,
ALMOST NONEXISTENT.

UH, I'M CURIOUS. HOW
DID YOU TWO MEET?

SORRY?

IS YOUR RELATIONSHIP
SOCIAL OR PROFESSIONAL?

WHAT DOES THAT HAVE TO
DO WITH OUR BUSINESS HERE?

EVERYTHING. I'M ABOUT
TO MAKE A DECISION

WHERE I'M GONNA PLACE A BULK
OF MY ASSETS IN YOUR HANDS!

I WANT TO KNOW
WHO I'M DEALING WITH.

WHAT DO YOU THINK OF HIM?

HE'S A FAIR EMPLOYER.

ARE YOU ATTRACTED TO HIM?

I'M SORRY. IT WAS A MISTAKE
FOR US TO COME HERE.

[snaps finger]

(Gelner) ONE FINAL QUESTION.

IF YOUR EMPLOYER WERE
TO SUDDENLY CEASE TO EXIST,

WOULD YOU BE ABLE TO GET
UP TO SPEED QUICKLY ENOUGH

TO DO THIS FOR ME?

IT DEPENDS ON WHAT YOU
MEAN BY QUICKLY ENOUGH.

BY NEXT TUESDAY.

CAN YOU GIVE ME ONE MINUTE?

SURE.

[beeping]

NOT QUITE. BUT IF YOU CAN
GIVE ME 2 MORE DAYS, THEN, YES.

NO, NO. I NEED IT DONE SOONER.

TSK, THAT'S FINE.

(Gelner) YOUR
ASSISTANT IS VERY GOOD.

BUT DON'T TRAIN HER TOO WELL.

YEAH.

SO, DO WE HAVE A DEAL?

YES, WE DO.

UH, IF YOU'LL JOIN ME
IN THE OTHER ROOM,

I'LL SHOW YOU WHAT
WE'RE UP AGAINST.

[chuckling]

JUST HIM.

OH, NOTHING SINISTER.

IT'S JUST THE FEWER
THE BETTER AT THIS POINT.

YOU ARE AN ATTRACTIVE WOMAN.

[door closing]

THANK YOU.

I LIKE YOUR TIE.

I LIKE A WOMAN WHO
KNOTS HER OWN TIE.

IT SHOWS AN INDEPENDENT NATURE.

I'VE BEEN WAITING A
LONG TIME FOR YOU.

I... I DON'T KNOW
WHAT THIS MEANS.

TAKE IT TO OPERATIONS.
HE'LL KNOW WHAT TO DO.

TELL NO ONE ELSE.

(Gelner) KAREL.

DID HE OPEN THE BOOKS?

NO. HE PRESENTED A
THEORETICAL SCENARIO.

IF HE LIKES MY
RESPONSE, HE'LL USE ME.

GET THE DATA TO ANALYSIS.

HAVE THEM WORK UP A PROJECTION.

TELL THEM NOT TO BE TOO PRECISE.

WE WANT IT TO LOOK REAL.

OF COURSE.

IS THERE SOMETHING ELSE?

YES.

WHAT?

THIS.

[beeps]

[intercom beeps]

SEND NIKITA UP HERE RIGHT AWAY.

HEY.

YOU'LL HAVE TO STUDY THE
NUMBERS ANALYSIS GIVES US.

SURE.

WHERE ARE YOU GOING?

TO SEE OPERATIONS.

WHY?

HE HAS SOME QUESTIONS
ABOUT ALGIERS.

THAT WAS 2 WEEKS AGO.

I GUESS HE'S STILL REVIEWING IT.

DOES MICHAEL KNOW ABOUT THIS?

(Nikita) NO. IN FACT,
I JUST LIED TO HIM.

I TOLD HIM I WAS UP HERE
TO TALK ABOUT ALGIERS.

GOOD. DON'T MENTION
THIS TO ANYONE.

WHO IS HE?

EVERY ONCE IN A WHILE,

SOMEONE TURNS UP
WHERE THEY SHOULDN'T.

WHY DOES HE KNOW SO
MUCH ABOUT SECTION ONE?

I DON'T KNOW YET.

WHAT ELSE DID HE SAY TO YOU?

THAT HE WAS WAITING FOR US.

AND I SHOULD SPEAK ONLY TO YOU.

OK.

REPORT TO DUTY.

THE ONLY ADJUSTMENT
YOU NEED TO MAKE

IS TO TREAT ANYTHING
HE SAYS AS UNRELIABLE.

DON'T YOU THINK WE SHOULD
TELL MICHAEL ABOUT THIS?

NOT YET.

WHAT ABOUT THE
INTEGRITY OF OUR COVER?

I'VE TOLD YOU WHAT TO DO.

DON'T WORRY.

BOTH YOU AND MICHAEL
WILL BE PROTECTED.

(Walter) HEY.

HEY.

HEADING OUT? YEAH.

YOU OK?

I'M FINE.

YOU DON'T SEEM SO FINE.
I'M WORRIED ABOUT YOU.

[sighing]

WALTER, IT'S JUST THIS PLACE.

IT JUST GETS TO ME
SOMETIMES, THAT'S ALL.

I WAS IN PRETTY BAD
SHAPE THIS TIME LAST YEAR.

I DON'T WANT TO
FEEL THAT WAY AGAIN.

LOOK, SUGAR, YOU CAN'T
CHANGE THE WAY THEY TREAT YOU.

THE ONLY THING YOU CAN CHANGE
IS THE WAY YOU TREAT YOURSELF.

WHY DON'T YOU GO
OUT? HAVE A GOOD TIME.

FIND A MAN.

SEE, SEE, JUST THINKING ABOUT
IT MAKES YOU FEEL BETTER, RIGHT?

GOOD NIGHT, WALTER.

GOOD NIGHT, SUGAR.

I DON'T CARE WHAT YOU SAY,
BUYING A DOG IS A BIG STEP.

IT'S... IT'S LIKE HAVING
A KID TOGETHER.

YOU SOUND VERY SERIOUS.

YEAH. FEELS SERIOUS.

♪♪[Superheroes
by Esthero playing]

HE'S LATE. I THOUGHT
HE WOULD BE.

WHY?

I DON'T KNOW. HE'S SHY.

I'M SURPRISED HE DIDN'T
CALL AND CANCEL LAST MINUTE.

I'M SURE HE'S JUST
STUCK IN TRAFFIC.

HE'LL BE HERE.

HEY, THANKS FOR CALLING. I LOVE
DOING STUFF IN THE MIDDLE OF THE WEEK.

ME, TOO.

♪ WHAT I HAVE GOT? ♪

[phone ringing]

♪ OPEN YOUR EYES ♪

♪ I CAN NOT BE WHAT I AM NOT ♪♪

HELLO?

GREAT. COME ON UP.

HE'S HERE.

GREAT.

(Carla) IT'S ABOUT TIME, FELLA.

LOOK AT YOU ALL
DRESSED UP. COME HERE.

HI. HI.

NICE TO MEET YOU.
NICE TO MEET YOU.

HOPE YOU'RE HUNGRY.
THERE'S PLENTY OF FOOD.

YEAH, SURE. WANT SOME WINE?

YEAH, THAT'D BE GOOD.

HELP YOURSELF.

(Carla) I DON'T KNOW ABOUT
YOU TWO, BUT I'M STARVED.

HEY, LET ME GET THAT.

I'M GOING TO NEED THOSE
FUNDS IN POSITION BY THE 13TH.

I HAVE A CLIENT WHO'S
GOING TO NEED THEM

TO MAKE A FAIRLY LARGE PURCHASE.

I'D LIKE TO GET THEM
IN PLACE SOONER.

I'VE ALREADY TALKED TO
THE C.F.O. OF THAT BANK.

THE RATES ARE COMING DOWN.

GOOD, GOOD. UH, NOW, WHAT
ABOUT THOSE BEARER BONDS?

I DON'T THINK YOU SHOULD
TOUCH THOSE RIGHT NOW.

REALLY? WHAT DO
YOU THINK, KAREL?

WELL, UM, LET'S TAKE A LOOK.

[typing]

(Karel) WHAT'S YOUR
THINKING ON THIS, MICHAEL?

THE ACCOUNTS
WOULD BE TOO VISIBLE.

WHY?

LAST SPRING, THE EUROPEAN BANK

NETWORKED INTO
THE ASIAN MARKETS.

THAT EXPOSED ALL CONTINENTAL
ACCOUNTS TO ROUTINE SURVEILLANCE.

WE'D PROBABLY GET AWAY WITH IT,

BUT I DON'T THINK YOU
WANT TO TAKE THAT CHANCE.

YOU'RE A BRIGHT BOY.
HE'S A BRIGHT BOY, KAREL.

OH, YES, HE'S A VERY BRIGHT BOY.

ALL RIGHT, THEN WE'LL
KEEP THOSE IN PLACE

AND START STAGGERING
THE OTHER ACCOUNTS.

WELL, UH, I'VE
ARRANGED SCHEDULE.

WOULD YOU LIKE TO SEE IT?

YES, PLEASE.

FINE. MAKE A HARD COPY.

DID YOU SPEAK TO
OPERATIONS ABOUT ME?

WHO ARE YOU?

YOU KNOW DAMNED WELL WHO I AM.

WHY AREN'T THEY BRINGING ME IN?

I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT
YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT.

HE DIDN'T TELL YOU.

WHICH MEANS

EITHER HE'S WORRIED
THAT I'VE BEEN TURNED

AND HE'S TRYING TO BE CAUTIOUS,

OR HE NEVER INTENDED
TO BRING ME BACK IN.

WHAT ARE YOU SAYING?

WHY DO YOU THINK YOU
AND MICHAEL ARE HERE?

TO MOVE GELNER'S MONEY.

GELNER ASKED ME TO CHECK
YOU OUT BEFORE MEETING YOU.

AS I BEGAN DIGGING
INTO YOUR HISTORIES,

SOMETHING STARTED TO GNAW AT ME.

A VAGUELY FAMILIAR PATTERN.

IT REMINDED ME OF THE
BACKGROUND I WAS GIVEN

BEFORE I WAS PUT INTO PLACE.

THAT'S WHY I CLEARED YOU.

CHARLES SAND:
FIRST-TIER OPERATIVE.

I'VE BEEN OUT FOR 9 YEARS,

WAITING FOR SOMEONE
TO BRING ME BACK IN

FROM SECTION ONE.

I WAS GRABBED IN
MID-MISSION BY RED CELL.

TO THIS DAY, I DON'T
KNOW HOW I WAS MADE.

WHAT ABOUT THE REST OF THE TEAM?

KILLED.

DURING EGRESS.

HOW'D YOU SURVIVE
ALL THESE YEARS?

I KEPT MYSELF ALIVE

BY FEEDING RED CELL
DISPOSABLE SECTION INTEL.

THEY WANTED TO KILL ME

WHEN I FORMED A RELATIONSHIP
WITH ONE OF THE SOLDIERS

WHO, UH, EVENTUALLY
WENT OUT ON HIS OWN.

GELNER.

YES.

IF WHAT YOU'RE
TELLING ME IS TRUE,

WHY DID YOU NEVER
CONTACT THE SECTION?

I TRIED.

THEY MUST HAVE CLOSED
DOWN MY CHANNEL.

AND NOW YOU WANT ME
TO BRING YOU BACK IN?

YOU'VE GOT TO BRING ME BACK IN.

I WAS TOLD NOT TO
TRUST ANYTHING YOU SAID.

SO, UNLESS YOU HAVE
SOMETHING HARD ON GELNER,

THERE'S NOTHING MORE TO DISCUSS.

HERE. TAKE THIS.

WHAT IS IT?

TAKE IT TO COMM., THEY'LL
PULL OFF THE SPECIFICS.

IT'S THE ONLY CHANCE OF
BRINGING GELNER DOWN.

YOU AND MICHAEL
CAN'T DO IT ALONE.

TRUST ME.

AND IF OPERATIONS
STILL DOESN'T BELIEVE ME,

SPEAK TO MADELINE.

MADELINE?

SHE'LL WANT TO KNOW
THAT I'M STILL ALIVE.

YOU MET HIM?

YOU COULD HAVE LET ME KNOW
HE WAS A SECTION OPERATIVE.

WHAT DID HE TELL YOU?

HE GAVE ME THIS. HE CLAIMS IT'S
THE ONLY WAY TO GET TO GELNER.

HE DOESN'T THINK OUR
APPROACH WILL WORK?

NO.

THAT'S INTERESTING.

I DON'T UNDERSTAND.

DO WE TRUST THIS
GUY OR DON'T WE?

NOTHING'S CHANGED.

I'LL LOOK AT THIS AND LET MICHAEL
KNOW HOW WE'RE GOING TO PROCEED.

WHAT DO I TELL MICHAEL WHEN
HE ASKS WHERE I GOT THE DISK?

NOTHING.

IF THERE'S ANYTHING
USEFUL ON IT,

I'LL FUNNEL IT TO
MICHAEL MYSELF.

YOU WERE NEVER INVOLVED.

JUST SEEMS STRANGE,
IF HE'S ONE OF OURS

WHY WE ARE NOT PROTECTING HIM.

JUST DO WHAT I TELL YOU, NIKITA.

HE SAYS HE'S BEEN
WAITING FOR 9 YEARS.

THIS IS HOW IT HAS
TO BE HANDLED.

WE ARE GOING TO BE OUT OF RANGE.

USE THE TRI-FIELD PICK UPS.

WE CAN'T RISK THE
CHANCE OF A DROP OUT.

GELNER WILL HAVE HIS EYES
ON THE FILE THE ENTIRE TIME.

HOW IS IT GOING?

WE SHOULD BE ABLE TO ACCESS ALL
HIS ACCOUNTS BEFORE THE TAKEDOWN.

GOOD.

WE'LL HAVE A COMPLETE
PROFILE READY IN AN HOUR.

I NEED TO SPEAK
TO MICHAEL ALONE.

I'VE UPGRADED NIKITA'S
STATUS FOR THIS MISSION.

SHE'LL BE REPORTING
TO ME DIRECTLY.

WHY?

I HAVE A VARIABLE
I'D LIKE TO ISOLATE.

I NEED YOU TO HANDLE
ALL OF THE PRIMARIES.

IS THIS A SINGULARITY OR
IS IT A PERMANENT UPGRADE?

WE'LL SEE HOW IT GOES.

DO YOU HAVE A PROBLEM
WITH ANY OF THIS?

NIKITA PERFORMS BEST
WHEN SHE'S SCRIPTED.

I DON'T THINK SHE'S READY.

I DISAGREE.

IT'S NEVER EASY,

BUT YOU'RE GOING TO HAVE TO
LET GO OF HER SOMETIME, MICHAEL.

MICHAEL, DO YOU HAVE A MINUTE?

COME IN.

HAS OPERATIONS EVER ASKED YOU

TO DO SOMETHING OUTSIDE
MISSION PARAMETERS?

YES.

WHAT DID YOU DO?

WHAT DO YOU WANT
TO KNOW, NIKITA?

WHAT WILL HAPPEN TO
YOU IF YOU DON'T OBEY HIM?

I DON'T KNOW WHY I CAME HERE.

[sighing]

I DON'T HAVE A CHOICE.

I'VE GOT TO DO WHAT HE WANTS.

THINK IT THROUGH.

BUT MORE IMPORTANTLY, YOU'LL
HAVE TO STOP COMING TO ME.

I'M NO LONGER YOUR MENTOR.

(Birkoff) THIS HAD BETTER
BE PRIORITY 3 OR HIGHER.

SORRY TO WAKE YOU,
BUT IT'S IMPORTANT.

[sighing]

WHAT ARE WE LOOKING FOR?

INCOMING COMMUNICATIONS
ON DORMANT CHANNELS.

FRIENDLY OR HOSTILE?

FRIENDLY.

AN OPERATIVE BELIEVED DEAD,
WHO'S TRYING TO GET BACK IN.

OK. OVER HERE.

ALIAS OR REAL NAME?

CHARLES SAND.

NO. NOTHING.

HOW ABOUT GIRALDI?

NOPE.

CAN I GO BACK TO BED NOW?

WHAT IF SOMEONE FROM THE
INSIDE WAS TRYING TO REROUTE IT?

I NEED TO KNOW WHO.

OPERATIONS.

JUST TRY.

WOW.

WHAT IS IT?

CHARLES SAND.

FIRST-TIER OPERATIVE, WENT
DARK ON THE PARSIFAL MISSION

9 YEARS AGO.

WENT DARK? WHAT DOES THAT MEAN?

SOMEONE PUSHED A
BUTTON ON THIS GUY

IN THE MIDDLE OF THE OPERATION.

IT WAS LIKE HE WAS
HUNG OUT TO DRY

FOR NO PARTICULAR REASON.

HAD A PERFECT RECORD.

WHAT'S HIS STATUS?

THAT'S THE WEIRD THING.

HE'S LISTED AS DEAD, BUT THERE'S
COMM. FROM HIM EVERY MONTH.

WHO RECEIVED IT?

IT HAD TO BE OPERATIONS.

HE REROUTED THE COMMUNIQUES
TO A SYNC FILE, THEN TRASHED THEM.

WHAT'S GOING ON?

DID YOU CHECK IN WITH WALTER?

YEAH. HE SAID 4 TEAMS.

SEEMS PRETTY HEAVY.
WHAT'S GOING ON?

WE HAVE NEW INTEL ON GELNER.

REALLY?

WHAT KIND?

IT'S ON YOUR PANEL.

WHERE DID WE GET
THE INFORMATION?

OPERATIONS.

HE SOURCED IT FROM
EASTERN EUROPE.

WE LEAVE IN 2 HOURS.

MICHAEL... WE'RE
GONNA KILL GIRALDI?

HE'S COLLATERAL.

WHY?

OPERATIONS ONLY
WANTS GELNER ALIVE.

WHAT'S THE PROBLEM?
YOU HAVE WORK TO DO.

YEAH, RIGHT.

WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE?

I THOUGHT YOU WERE
PREPPING A MISSION.

WHERE DID YOU GET THIS?

HE'S AN INCIDENTAL ON
MY CURRENT MISSION.

I'D LIKE TO KNOW WHO HE IS

AND WHY OPERATIONS
WANTS HIM DEAD.

[sighing]

TELL ME WHAT YOU KNOW.

CHARLES SAND, FIRST-TIER
OPERATIVE, BEEN OUT OVER 9 YEARS

WAITING FOR US TO
BRING HIM BACK IN.

THEN WHY ARE YOU HERE?

OPERATIONS CLAIMS HE'S LYING,

AND WANTS HIM TO BE
KILLED ON TODAY'S MISSION.

I THINK THAT'S EXTREME.

ESPECIALLY IF HE'S ONE OF OURS.

HAS A MISSION PROFILE BEEN SET?

YES.

MADELINE, HE SAID IF THERE
WAS A PROBLEM, TO SPEAK TO YOU.

WHO IS HE, AND WHY DOES
OPERATIONS WANT HIM DEAD?

DOESN'T LOOK GOOD IF WE CAN'T
KEEP TRACK OF OUR OWN PEOPLE.

HE DIDN'T LOSE TRACK.

WHAT DO YOU MEAN?

HE'S BEEN TRYING TO CONTACT THE
SECTION EVER SINCE HE'S BEEN OUT.

OPERATIONS HAS BEEN
INTERCEPTING HIS COMMUNIQUES.

I WANT YOU TO BRING HIM IN.

HOW? THE PROFILE'S
ALREADY BEEN SET.

JUST DO IT. I'LL DEAL
WITH OPERATIONS.

AND MICHAEL?

FIND SOMETHING ON SITE.

USE IT TO CREATE DOUBT.

TELL MICHAEL WE NEED TO
BRING IN SAND BEFORE WE KILL HIM.

MADELINE, WHO IS HE?

MY HUSBAND.

GELNER PLANS TO QUIETLY
ACQUIRE CONTROLLING INTEREST

IN THE BANKS OF SEVERAL
CENTRAL AFRICAN ECONOMIES.

HE WILL BE MEETING WITH THE
LEADERS OF REBEL ARMIES TODAY

TO DISPENSE FUNDS FOR A
LARGE ARMS TRANSACTION.

HE WILL BE PARTICULARLY
VULNERABLE AT THIS MEETING.

TO CLOSE THIS DEAL, HE
WILL HAVE TO MOVE FUNDS

ON 3 CONTINENTS IN REAL TIME.

PRIMARY TEAM WILL BE
RESPONSIBLE FOR GETTING CONTROL

OF THE COMPUTER
WHILE HE'S ONLINE.

SECONDARY TEAM WILL
BRING DOWN THE TERRORISTS.

PUT SOME SCOPES
FOR THE OUTSIDE TEAM

AND ANOTHER SET OF
P-6s FOR THE OPS ON POINT.

WILL DO.

HEY, HI, SUGAR.

HI.

THE PROFILE'S BEEN LOCKED.

GOOD.

GET YOUR GEAR AND
MEET ME IN VAN ACCESS.

I CHANGED THE
OPTICS ON YOUR SCOPE.

IT'LL GIVE YOU AN EXTRA
5 DEGREES OF SLOP.

DID YOU KNOW CHARLES SAND?

WHO TOLD YOU ABOUT HIM?

HE'S MADELINE'S
HUSBAND, ISN'T HE?

WAS. HE'S DEAD.

HE WAS KILLED DURING A MISSION.

HE'S ALIVE.

WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT?

HE WORKS FOR GELNER.

OPERATIONS WANTS HIM DEAD.

MADELINE WANTS ME TO
BRING HIM BACK IN ALIVE.

ARE YOU TELLING ME YOU HAVE SEPARATE
CONFIDENCES WITH BOTH OF THEM?

YES. OH, BOY...

(Operations) NIKITA,

I'D LIKE TO TALK
TO YOU A MOMENT.

THANKS.

YOU'RE WELCOME, SUGAR.

HAVE YOU STUDIED THE PROFILE?

YES, I HAVE.

I EXPECT EVERYTHING WILL
GO ACCORDING TO PLAN?

SURE.

GOOD.

WHAT'S THE PROBLEM?

NO PROBLEM.

EVEN THOUGH YOUR CAUSE IS JUST,

I KNOW YOU CAN'T
EXPECT THE FULL SUPPORT

OF AN ARMY WHOSE BARE
NECESSITIES NEED TO BE MET.

I'LL PROVIDE THAT, AS WELL AS
THE MUNITIONS AND MATERIAL.

ONCE YOU ARE IN POWER,
I'LL EXPECT RECIPROCITY.

AFTER YOU HAVE
NATIONALIZED YOUR BANKS,

MR. GIRALDI WILL ORGANIZE
THE GOVERNING BOARDS.

ALL FINANCIAL DECISIONS, FROM
THAT POINT ON, WILL BE INITIATED BY US.

OK, MICHAEL, THEY ARE ALL IN.

I'LL GIVE YOU THE SIGNAL
WHEN HE GETS ONLINE.

ALL TEAMS TO FINAL MARK.

THESE ARE YOUR OPERATING
ACCOUNTS FOR THE NEXT 2 WEEKS.

I'VE PUT IN WHAT I BELIEVE
TO BE SUFFICIENT AMOUNTS.

CONTACT ME IF
THERE ARE OVERRUNS,

AND I WILL DEAL
WITH IT PERSONALLY.

OK, HE'S PLUGGED IN.
YOU'RE CLEAR, MICHAEL.

FIRST TEAM, GO.

[gun firing]

[groaning]

I'VE GOT HIM.

GELNER'S LAPTOP IS LOADED
WITH HOT FILES. GET IT.

I'LL DECODE IT IN SECTION.

[gun clicking]

WHAT ARE YOU DOING?

I'VE BEEN ORDERED TO KILL YOU.

DID YOU SPEAK TO MADELINE?

YES, I DID.

WHAT DID SHE SAY?

(Madeline) THAT'LL
BE ALL, NIKITA.

I CAN TAKE IT FROM HERE.

WATCH THE DOOR.
I'LL NEED A MINUTE.

MADELINE.

HELLO, CHARLES.

[gun firing]

IT WAS WRONG OF ME TO
PUT YOU IN THIS POSITION.

OPERATIONS WAS RIGHT.

[panting]

HE WAS YOUR HUSBAND.

YES. HE WAS.

HOW COULD YOU KILL HIM?

THERE WAS NO WAY
TO BRING HIM BACK.

HIS PRESENCE OUTSIDE THE
SECTION FOR SO MANY YEARS

WOULD UNDERMINE OUR CREDIBILITY.

AND LETTING HIM GO
WASN'T AN OPTION.

HE UNDERSTOOD THAT.

I JUST READ THE
DEBRIEF. QUITE A SHOCK.

CHARLES NEVER TRIED TO
CONTACT YOU OVER THE YEARS?

NO.

YET IT'S HARD TO BELIEVE

THAT HE SWITCHED HIS
ALLEGIANCE TO THE OTHER SIDE.

YES, IT IS.

MUST BE HARD ON YOU.

I'LL GET OVER IT.

WELL, AT LEAST THE
MISSION WAS A SUCCESS.

WE STOPPED THE DEAL AND GOT
CONTROL OF GELNER'S ACCOUNTS.

GOOD.

CONGRATULATIONS.

THANK YOU.

DO YOU WANT TO TELL
ME WHAT HAPPENED?

I WENT OUT WITH A FEW
PEOPLE AND I GOT HOME LATE,

BUT ONLY ABOUT HALF AN
HOUR, AND HE WENT CRAZY.

I'VE NEVER SEEN HIM
LIKE THAT BEFORE.

DID HE HIT YOU?

I CAN'T GO BACK THERE.

IT'S ALL RIGHT.
YOU'LL STAY WITH ME.

I CAN'T, UH, I CAN FIND A PLACE.

YOU'VE BEEN THROUGH
A LOT RIGHT NOW.

IT'S NO PROBLEM.

[sighing]

MY LIFE IS SUCH A MESS.

[phone ringing]

HELLO?

(Michael) JOSEPHINE.

YEAH?

THANKS.

YOU HAVE TO GO?

YEAH.

WHEN ARE YOU GONNA BE BACK?

I DON'T KNOW.

BUT YOU JUST STAY
HERE AND RELAX, OK?

MAKE YOURSELF AT HOME.

CARLA, DON'T CALL HIM.

I'M IN.
