La Femme Nikita (1997–2001): Season 4, Episode 5 - Man in the Middle - full transcript

(Madeline) I SEE NO INDICATION
OF THE GELMAN RESPONSE.

NIKITA'S IRISES AND PUPILS
ARE COMPLETELY NORMAL.

THEN WE'VE LOST
CONTROL OVER HER.

YES.

WITH ADRIAN'S
HELP, IT SEEMS THAT

MICHAEL'S BEEN ABLE TO
REVERSE WHAT WE'VE DONE.

DO YOU INTEND TO
REINSTATE THE ORDERS

FOR HIS CANCELLATION?

NO. NOT NOW.

NOT AS LONG AS HE HAS ADRIAN.

WELL, AS LONG AS HE HAS ADRIAN,



HE'LL HAVE NIKITA.

I'M AWARE OF THAT.

WHEN THE TIME IS RIGHT,

WE'LL DEAL APPROPRIATELY
WITH ALL 3 OF THEM.

THERE MAY ALREADY BE A WAY
TO DEAL WITH MICHAEL AND NIKITA.

[woman speaking French]

(Operations) WOLFGANG VOLKER

IS THE FOUNDER AND
CHIEF OPERATING OFFICER

OF VOLKWERKS INDUSTRIES.

THE 2ND LARGEST SMALL ARMS
MANUFACTURER ON THE CONTINENT.

WE'VE BEEN MONITORING
HIS OPERATION

SINCE THEY'VE EXPANDED
TO THEIR NEW FACILITY

IN HEILBRONN.

BIRKOFF HAS A DIRECT LINE
INTO THEIR INVENTORY CONTROL.



FROM WHAT I CAN TELL,

IT APPEARS TO BE A
LEGITIMATE ORGANIZATION.

NO UNACCOUNTED
SHORTAGES. NO BURGLARIES.

THE SECURITY
SYSTEM'S FIRST-RATE.

(Operations) THIS IS HIS
SON, HELMUT VOLKER.

IN THE LAST MONTH

HIS ACTIVITIES MAINLY CONSISTED

OF LIVING OFF HIS
FATHER'S FORTUNE

AND THE HIGH LIFE
AND FAST TRACK.

IN THE PROCESS, HE'S ACQUIRED
SOME VERY INTERESTING FRIENDS.

ALL WITH KNOWN TIES TO RED CELL.

WHAT HAPPENED LAST MONTH?

(Operations) HELMUT WENT
TO WORK FOR HIS FATHER.

GIVEN HIS ASSOCIATIONS,

AND NOW HIS ACCESS TO
HIS FATHER'S INVENTORY,

WE PREDICT A
BETTER-THAN-90% PROBABILITY

THAT A MOVE WILL BE MADE
BY RED CELL TO ACQUIRE

SOME EXTREMELY
SOPHISTICATED WEAPONRY.

WE HAVE OPERATIVES IN PLACE.

AT VOLKWERKS, YES.

BUT NOT IN HELMUT'S
PARTY CIRCLE.

ANNA GOERNER, FREDERICK KRAUS.

HEROIN DEALERS. LOVERS.

THAT WILL BE OUR POINT OF ENTRY.

[cars honking]

[people chattering]

YOU ALWAYS TAKE ME TO
SUCH NICE PLACES, MICHAEL.

THEY SHOULD BE
OUT IN A FEW MINUTES.

WHERE YOU STAYING TONIGHT?

THEY'VE ASSIGNED ME
TO TEMPORARY QUARTERS

WHILE THEY SCRUB ALL
TRACES OF THE GELMAN PROCESS

FROM MY LITTLE APARTMENT.

I GOT TO SAY,

MY NEW PAD'S ALMOST
AS NICE AS THIS. ALMOST.

FOR HOW LONG?

2 WEEKS.

YOU COULD STAY WITH ME.

YOU ASKING ME TO
MOVE IN WITH YOU?

WELL, YOU'D BE MORE COMFORTABLE.

WELL, IS THIS FOR 2 WEEKS,

OR WERE YOU
THINKING OF SOMETHING

A LITTLE MORE PERMANENT?

WE'D HAVE MORE PRIVACY.

AND HOW IS IT THAT YOU THINK

WE'RE GONNA GET AWAY WITH THAT?

ADRIAN.

I'LL THINK ABOUT IT.

(Nikita) TEAM 2, STAND
BY. TARGET IN SIGHT.

[people chattering]

[car lock beeping]

[guns cocking]

GET IN THE CAR.

(Nikita) GIVE US THE HEROIN.

SHE ONLY ASKS ONCE.

TAKE THEM IN.

[tires screeching]

SHALL WE?

[truck engine revving]

[people laughing]

♪♪[music playing]

[people chattering]

FOLLOW ME.

ANOTHER NICE PLACE.

ANNA GOERNER AND
FREDERICK KRAUS.

WE'VE BEEN WAITING FOR YOU TWO.

(Helmut) THAT'S
ENOUGH FOR TONIGHT.

WE'LL FINISH THIS TOMORROW.

GENTLEMEN,

PLAYTIME.

ANNA GOERNER AND
FREDERICK KRAUS.

I MUST SAY, I FIND
IT HARD TO BELIEVE

YOU ARE WHO YOU SAY YOU ARE.

AND WHY IS THAT?

WELL, IT'S MUCH TOO OLD FOR YOU.

MUCH TOO IRON-STAKE-UP-THE-REAR,
AND ALL THAT.

SO, YOU'RE NOT
DISAPPOINTED THEN.

ONLY IN MY FAILURE TO MAKE A
MORE APPROPRIATE PREDICTION.

YOU'RE BOTH MUCH TOO
GORGEOUS FOR WORDS.

I SHOULD HAVE BEEN
BORN WITH HIS FACE.

2 KILOS. TURKISH. UNCUT.

FREDDIE, PLEASE.

HUMOR ME AND ACT AS IF

WE'RE THE BEST OF FRIENDS. SIT.

I'VE BEEN DOING BUSINESS ALL DAY

AND I'M FEELING
COMPLETELY BEREFT

OF INSIGNIFICANT SMALL TALK.

I LIKE YOUR TIE.

[sighs]

SO WHY DON'T YOU TWO TELL ME

WHEN YOU KNEW
THAT YOU WERE MEANT

FOR EACH OTHER AND ABSOLUTELY
NO ONE ELSE WOULD DO?

I'D SAY WE'RE STILL
WORKING ON THAT.

YOU'RE INTERESTED
IN MAKING A PURCHASE?

OF COURSE I'M
INTERESTED, FREDDIE.

WHAT, DO YOU THINK
ALL THOSE PEOPLE

OUT THERE LOVE ME FOR WHO I AM?

AND WHY THE RUSH?
YOU'RE MY FRIENDS NOW.

STAY. AND PARTY, HUH?

AND WE'LL DO THIS
BUSINESS TOMORROW.

YOU KNOW, I HAVE A FEELING

THERE'S A BIT MORE
OF THAT IRON STAKE

STUCK UP THERE THAN WE THOUGHT.

BUT WE'LL HAVE A GOOD YANK AT IT

BEFORE WE LET YOU OUT
IN THE REAL WORLD, HEY?

ALEX WILL MAKE YOU
FEEL COMFORTABLE.

AND IF YOU INSIST
ON BEING ALONE,

I MIGHT HAVE TO SUGGEST
YOU LOCK YOUR DOOR.

(Operations) BY NOW, THEY
SHOULD HAVE VOLKER'S ATTENTION.

NOW IT'S JUST A QUESTION OF
HOW FAR HE'S WILLING TO GO.

WE KNEW THE
PROBABILITIES GOING IN.

JUST UNDER 60%.

BUT IF VOLKER IS DRAWN
TO NIKITA, AS I SUSPECT HE IS,

THEN I BELIEVE WE CAN BE
CONFIDENT IN THE OUTCOME.

[people chattering]

YOU NOTICE WHO WAS IN THE ROOM
WITH VOLKER WHEN WE CAME IN?

YES. WE'LL NEED TO
GET INTO HIS SAFE.

MIGHT BE EASIER SAID THAN DONE.

I'M NOT SO SURE HE'S THE
FOOL HE MAKES OUT TO BE.

YOU THINK THERE'S MORE?

WELL, YOU'D THINK
THERE'D HAVE TO BE.

HUSHED WORDS IN
MY HUMBLE HALLWAY?

NO. WE WERE JUST DISCUSSING

WHAT GOOD TASTE YOU
HAVE IN CHAMPAGNE.

YES. I REGRET I'M CURSED
WITH MY GOOD TASTE.

IT'S MURDER ON THE BANK ACCOUNT,

BUT DOES WONDERS FOR THE SOUL.

[chuckles]

NICE ON THE TONGUE, TOO.

YEAH.

SO YOU TWO ARE ALL SET, THEN?

HMM? HEY,

WHAT SAY YOU JOIN ME
ON THE SHOOTING RANGE

TOMORROW MORNING?

YOU DO SHOOT, FREDDIE?

I'M A LITTLE OUT OF PRACTICE.

IT'S GETTING LATE.
COME ON, DARLING.

(Nikita) SEE YOU IN THE MORNING.

OH.

GOOD NIGHT.

♪ MY TEENAGE SENSATION ♪

AH, IT'S JUST BECOME THAT.

♪ MY TEENAGE SENSATION ♪♪

(Helmut) I ALWAYS
FEEL THAT WE MISS

SOME OF LIFE'S MORE
EXCITING MOMENTS

WHEN WE SLEEP.

WELL, I'LL BE SURE TO
KEEP MY EYES OPEN.

AND I'LL TRY AND MAKE
IT WORTH THE EFFORT.

IN FACT, WHY DON'T
I DO IT RIGHT NOW?

OH.

IT'S FROM MEXICO.

NOT QUITE TURKISH,
BUT ALMOST AS GOOD.

IT'S LATE.

YEAH.

THE BEST TIME FOR DREAMS.

DREAMS WE CAN DREAM TOGETHER.

PLEASE.

[Nikita chuckles]

COME ON.

COME ON.

FREDDIE.

DRUGS ARE THE ONLY THING I SELL.

FREDDIE.

SOMEHOW I'VE CREATED
THE WRONG IMPRESSION HERE.

I...

IF I MADE YOU THINK
THAT I THOUGHT

THAT I COULD PURCHASE
THIS GORGEOUS CREATURE,

THEN I'M PROFUSELY SORRY.

I MEAN, YOU, MORE THAN ANYONE,
SHOULD KNOW. ONE LOOK AT HER,

SHE'S PRICELESS.

THEN CONSIDER THE
COST IN THE EVENT

THAT YOU WERE TO
BREAK SOMETHING.

ARE YOU THREATENING ME? HMM?

I THINK I'M BEGINNING
TO LIKE YOU.

WE CAN CONDUCT OUR
BUSINESS IN THE MORNING.

8:00 AT THE SHOOTING
RANGE. IT'LL BE FUN.

[gun fires]

AHH. A BIT TO THE RIGHT.

THIS BABY PACKS SOME KICK.

VERY SERIOUS. IMPRESSIVE.

MY YOUTH WAS A
TORTURED ONE, ANNA.

MY FATHER KEPT ALL THE
BEST TOYS FOR HIMSELF.

IT'S A LITTLE BIT OVER MY HEAD,

BUT WITH A SLIGHT ADJUSTMENT,

I SHOULD BE ABLE TO ZERO
IN ON THE RIGHT TARGET.

SORT OF A SMART ROCKET.

SOMETHING NOT
REQUIRED OF THE SHOOTER.

ALL RIGHT, FREDDIE.

SINCE IT APPEARS TO COME
DOWN TO WHOSE IS BIGGER,

PLEASE.

[birds chirping]

IT IS HEAVY.

SO I JUST PUSH...

BEGINNER'S LUCK.

I SHOULD SAY.

[Nikita chuckles]

IT'S A LOT OF MONEY, FREDDIE.

IT'S A LOT OF HEROIN, HELMUT.

IT'S BECAUSE I LIKE YOU

THAT I'M TAKING YOUR WORD

IT IS AS GOOD AS YOU SAY IT IS.

YOU'RE WELCOME TO TEST IT.

WELL, AS I SAY, I LIKE YOU.

AND THAT MEANS, I TRUST YOU.

YOU KNOW, IF YOU'D
GIVE ME HALF A CHANCE,

I THINK YOU COULD
END UP LIKING ME, TOO.

WE DON'T SEEM TO
ENJOY THE SAME GAMES.

HMM.

BUT HOW DO YOU KNOW
IF YOU'VE NEVER PLAYED?

OUR BUSINESS IS CONCLUDED.

UH, P-PLEASE.

I KNOW WE HAVEN'T
EXACTLY HIT IT OFF,

BUT DON'T LEAVE ANGRY.

I FAIL SO MISERABLY
AT MOST THINGS,

BUT I CONSIDER BEING A
CHARMING HOST MY ONE ASSET.

PLEASE, STAY FOR MY BRUNCH.

(Nikita) WE HAVE A WINDOW.
MICHAEL WILL DISTRACT HELMUT.

I'M PROCEEDING TO
PRIMARY OBJECTIVE.

WELL, I GIVE UP.

NO DOUBT, YOU'VE MURDERED

THE LOVELY ANNA
IN A JEALOUS RAGE

AND BURIED THE BODY
ON THE GROUNDS, HMM?

THUS FRAMING THE ARDENT RIVAL?

SHE'S CHANGING.

MY GOD, I HOPE NOT.

HEY, HAVE YOU TRIED THE
LITTLE SAUSAGE QUICHE?

CAN WE TALK FOR A MOMENT?

HMM, TELL YOU WHAT,

I'LL KEEP MY MOUTH
BUSY, AND YOU TALK.

IT'S ABOUT ANNA.

HMM, I CAN IMAGINE.

ALMOST EVERYTHING IS.

WHEN I CONDUCT BUSINESS,
IT'S JUST THAT. BUSINESS.

I ENJOY YOUR MONEY.
YOU ENJOY YOUR GAMES.

I EXPECT THAT IN THE FUTURE

WE CAN CONTINUE TO
DO WHAT WE ALL DO BEST.

WE? ARE YOU AUTHORIZED
TO SPEAK FOR BOTH OF YOU?

[beeping]

LOOKS LIKE THE YANK

AT THE OLD STAKE
DIDN'T BUDGE IT MUCH.

BUT WE TRIED, RIGHT? FRIENDS?

[laughing] HMM.

KARYN.

CELINE. (Celine) MMM-HMM.

THIS IS FREDDIE.

ALWAYS KEEPING THE
BEST TO YOURSELF, HELMIE?

[laughs]

I TRIED. BUT I'M COPING
WITH BITTER REJECTION.

LEAVE SOME FOR THE
OTHER VULTURES, HEY, KIDS?

HEY, THEY BITE, FREDDIE.
IN ALL THE RIGHT PLACES.

[laughs]

HELLO? ANNA?

KARYN THINKS MY DRESS
IS TACKY, TOO OBVIOUS.

WHAT DO YOU THINK?

IT IS.

WHAT ARE YOU DOING IN HERE?

I JUST WANTED TO GET
AWAY FROM THE NOISE.

FIRST-CENTURY ROMAN.
MUST BE WORTH A FORTUNE.

YES, IT IS.

IT'S BEAUTIFUL.

YEAH.

SO WHEN YOU GONNA
TELL ME THE TRUTH?

TRUTH?

ABOUT WHAT?

THAT YOU DON'T LOVE FREDDIE.

[scoffs]

ALL RIGHT, TRUTH OR DARE?

I'LL START.

MY FATHER IS DESPICABLY WEALTHY

AND GETTING OLDER AS WE SPEAK.

HIS HEALTH, WELL, LET'S JUST SAY

HE'S NOT UP TO A FULL
18 HOLES ANYMORE.

DO YOU KNOW WHAT THIS IS WORTH?

THE LAST OFFER I
HAD WAS FOR $250,000.

IT'S BEAUTIFUL.

YEAH?

POCKET CHANGE, GIVEN
WHAT I STAND TO INHERIT.

REGRETTABLY, THERE'S A
CODICIL TO MY FATHER'S WILL.

EVERYTHING HE HAS COMES TO ME

IF I'M MARRIED AND SETTLED DOWN.

HOW UNUSUAL FOR YOU.

ISN'T IT?

(Helmut) THUS THE
QUESTION BECOMES

WILL MY FATHER'S HEART SHUT DOWN

BEFORE MINE OPENS UP?

THAT WOULD TRULY BE A SHAME.

YOUR TURN.

WELL, WHAT WOULD
YOU LIKE ME TO SAY?

I BELIEVE I JUST ASKED
YOU TO MARRY ME.

(Operations) THESE ARE NIKITA'S
PHOTOGRAPHS OF THE INVENTORY

VOLKER HAS ARRANGED
TO SELL TO RED CELL.

THE PLAN IS TO HIJACK A TRUCK

BELONGING TO ONE OF
VOLKWERKS' REGULAR CUSTOMERS

MAKING IT LOOK LIKE
BUSINESS AS USUAL.

I'VE ACCESSED THE
COMPANY'S DELIVERY LOGS.

MANDALUX MAKES 2 PICKUPS A WEEK

BUT, FOR SECURITY REASONS,
THE EXACT TIME AND PLACE

ARE ONLY CONFIRMED 2 HOURS

BEFORE THEY'RE
SCHEDULED TO ARRIVE.

VOLKER USES A FAIRLY
SOPHISTICATED CIPHER SYSTEM

ON HIS CELL PHONE.

I'M WORKING ON IT, BUT I
HAVEN'T HAD MUCH LUCK YET.

IF WE FAIL TO GET
THE ROUTE IN TIME,

THE FACTORY LOADING DOCK IS THE
MOST EFFECTIVE POINT OF CONTACT.

WAS, MICHAEL.

WE NO LONGER INTEND TO
INTERFERE WITH THE SALE.

VOLKER'S VALUE

AS A PERMANENT
SOURCE OF INFORMATION

AND GIVEN HIS RISE IN
STATUS WITHIN RED CELL

THAT THE SUCCESS OF THIS
ARMS DEAL WILL GIVE HIM,

OUTWEIGH THE IMPORTANCE
OF THIS ONE MISSION.

AND GIVEN HIS
INFATUATION WITH NIKITA,

WE FEEL THAT HER
CONTINUED CONNECTION TO HIM

CAN BE EXTREMELY USEFUL TO US.

ARE YOU SAYING YOU'D
LIKE ME TO ACCEPT HIS, UH,

PROPOSAL?

YES.

(Nikita) FOR HOW LONG?

(Madeline) INDEFINITELY.

(Birkoff) IT MIGHT HAVE JUST
WORKED OUT THAT WAY.

YOU KNOW HOW THINGS ARE, AMIGO.

THINGS DON'T JUST
WORK OUT AROUND HERE.

THEY HAPPEN FOR A REASON.

EVEN AT THE COST
OF LETTING RED CELL

GET THEIR HANDS
ON THAT SHIPMENT,

YOU THINK THEY'RE DOING THIS
ALL JUST TO GET RID OF NIKITA?

IT'S A NUMBERS GAME.

MICHAEL, NIKITA.

VOLKER, NIKITA, AND RED CELL.

THEY PULL THE LEVER,

WHATEVER COMES UP 3
CHERRIES, THERE'S THE JACKPOT.

(Nikita) WALTER?

UH, BACK HERE, SUGAR.

YOU SAID YOU WANTED TO SEE ME?

UH-HUH.

THEY'RE FOR YOU, CUPCAKE.

WHAT IS THIS?

WELL, THINK OF IT AS A
GOVERNMENT LOW-BUDGET

BON VOYAGE PARTY.

(Walter) UH, I'M JUST TRYING TO
MAKE IT AS PAINLESS AS POSSIBLE.

THEY'RE NOT RIGGED

AND THERE'S NO ELECTRONIC FILES

BAKED INSIDE THEM OR ANYTHING.

WELL, HERE'S...

HERE'S LOOKIN' AT YOU, KID.

YOU TWO ARE TALKING
LIKE I'M NEVER COMING BACK.

I'M GETTING MARRIED,
NOT CANCELED.

(Walter) THAT'S CLOSE ENOUGH.

KEEP YOUR POWDER DRY.

SURE AS HELL GONNA MISS YOU.

I'LL BE BACK.

[bell tolling]

(Michael) WHAT ARE YOU THINKING?

(Nikita) ABOUT THE MAN
I'M GOING TO MARRY.

IT'S ONE THING TO CONVINCE
ANOTHER MAN THAT I LOVE HIM

ENOUGH TO MARRY HIM,

BUT THE IDEA OF NOT
SEEING YOU AGAIN.

YOU HAVE TO SEPARATE
ANNA'S LIFE FROM NIKITA'S.

IS THAT WHAT YOU DID WITH ELENA?

I TRIED.

SO EVEN WITH EVERYTHING
THAT YOU WENT THROUGH,

YOU STILL THINK IT'S POSSIBLE

TO HOLD ON TO YOUR HEART?

YES.

WE'LL FIND A WAY TO STOP THIS.

HELLO.

AH, I WASN'T SURE YOU'D COME.

I SAID I WOULD.

YES, BUT IT'S
BEAUTY'S PREROGATIVE

TO NOT ALWAYS DELIVER
WHAT'S PROMISED.

I KEEP TRYING TO READ YOUR EYES.

AND THEY FLASH AND THEY SPARKLE

AND SOMEHOW MANAGE
TO NOT GIVE AN ANSWER.

[Nikita laughs]

(Nikita) YES. ALL RIGHT.

I'LL MARRY YOU.

[computer beeping]

HAVE YOU BEEN ABLE TO DECIPHER
VOLKER'S CELL PHONE CODE?

NO, NOT YET.

BUT SINCE THE MISSION'S
BEEN SCRAPPED,

IT'S NO LONGER A PRIORITY.

IF IT WAS?

HE'S USING AN ENCRYPTION CODE

THAT CAN'T BE REMOTELY SCANNED.

I'D HAVE TO PHYSICALLY
GET A HOLD OF THE PHONE,

USE A N.A.M. DEMODULATOR
TO CLONE THE ALGORITHM.

LIKE I SAID, IT'S NO
LONGER A PRIORITY.

[electronic beeping]

IT'S A N.A.M. DEMODULATOR.

IT'S A VARIATION ON WHAT
THE RIP-OFF GUYS ARE USING

TO CLONE CELL PHONES.

A LITTLE MORE SOPHISTICATED
IN THAT IT CAN HANDLE

DIGITAL CODING AND
ENCRYPTION SCHEMES.

IT AIN'T FAST, THOUGH.

HOW LONG?

IF IT'S SIMPLE, A MINUTE.

FROM THERE, WELL,
IT'S ANYBODY'S GUESS.

UP TO 3, 4 MINUTES, PROBABLY.

YOU KNOW I'M GONNA
HAVE TO LOG THIS.

YOU'LL THINK OF SOMETHING.

YEAH, YEAH. I ALWAYS
THINK OF SOMETHING.

MICHAEL.

WE'RE LEAVING FOR BUENOS
AIRES LATER TONIGHT.

I KNOW.

I'M SURE HE'S GONNA
WANT THE DEAL TO GO DOWN

SOMETIME BEFORE WE LEAVE.

IF WE WANT TO STOP IT,
WE NEED TO KNOW WHEN.

DO YOU THINK THIS IS GONNA WORK?

IF HE FAILS WITH RED CELL,

HE'LL NO LONGER
BE OF USE TO THEM.

THIS MARRIAGE WILL BE...

POINTLESS.

I GOT TO GO.

MADELINE, MY OFFICE.

I'LL BE EXPECTING YOUR CALL.

I'LL TALK TO YOU LATER.

HI.

PROMISE ME

THAT YOU'LL LEAVE ME
AT LEAST ONCE A DAY

SO THAT I CAN HAVE THE
PLEASURE OF WATCHING YOU

COME BACK THROUGH THE DOOR.

YOU'RE VERY GOOD
AT THIS. CHARMING.

IT'S ALL PLANNED.

OUR PLANE LEAVES AT 10:00.

I'VE ARRANGED FOR THE
CEREMONY SUNDAY AFTERNOON.

I CAME ACROSS THIS
ANOMALY IN OUR RECORDS.

A N.A.M. DEMODULATOR.
YOU CAN TRACE IT.

NO, IT SLIPPED
THROUGH THE CRACKS.

THERE'S NO REPAIR ORDER.

IT'S LISTED AS BEING OUT
WITH A BAD CIRCUIT BOARD.

DID YOU CHECK THE
REPLACEMENT SCHEDULE?

IT DOESN'T SHOW UP.

IT WAS ON INVENTORY

WHEN WE PLANNED
THE VOLKER MISSION.

BUT NOW IT SEEMS TO
BE MISSING. MICHAEL?

WE BOTH KNEW

THERE'D BE A CHANCE
HE'D TRY TO INTERFERE.

EVEN PUTTING HIMSELF
AT RISK WITH OVERSIGHT?

TO PREVENT THE MARRIAGE.

TO KEEP NIKITA TO HIMSELF.

HE'S ALREADY SHOWN US
HOW MUCH HE'S WILLING TO RISK.

DAVENPORT. TEAM
BRIEFING. 15 MINUTES.

(Helmut) I HAVE TO TELL YOU.

IT'S A BIT LONELY IN HERE.

(Nikita) WELL, WHEN
YOU COME OUT,

YOU'LL HAVE ALL THE
COMPANY YOU NEED.

YEAH. MMM.

I'M ALL FOR CLEANLINESS,

BUT, UH, BATHING
FIRST, I DON'T KNOW.

TAKES AWAY THE SPONTANEITY.

I'M SORRY. JUST
ONE OF MY QUIRKS.

[beeping]

I EXPECT TO FIND OUT
ABOUT ALL YOUR QUIRKS.

AHH.

YOU'RE STILL DRESSED.

WELL, I THOUGHT YOU MIGHT
LIKE TO GIVE ME SOME HELP.

[cell phone ringing]

(Helmut) VOLKER HERE.

(man) CAN YOU TALK?

YEAH.

8:00 TONIGHT AT VOLKWERKS.

I'LL BE THERE.

EVERYTHING ALL RIGHT?

YEAH. LIKE CLOCKWORK.

[buzzing]

[beeping]

[signal beeping]

YOU KNOW THE SCHEDULE?

RIGHT.

OK. GOOD LUCK.

[beeping]

I THINK THIS IS
EVERYTHING, MA'AM.

THE PLANE JUST ARRIVED.

DO YOU EXPECT
MR. VOLKER SHORTLY?

YES. ANY MINUTE. THANK YOU.

[siren wailing]

THAT'S THE LAST STACK?

THAT'S ALL OF IT? GOOD.

[beeping]

(Davenport) BIRKOFF, THE TRUCK
IS LEAVING. IT'S A DONE DEAL.

WE'LL MAINTAIN CONTACT
WITH THE TARGET.

[beeping]

(Helmut) THERE SHE IS.

YOU SEEM SURPRISED TO SEE ME.

NO, I WAS...

I WAS JUST...

WELL, I... I THOUGHT
YOU'D BE HERE SOONER.

YOU MUST PROMISE
TO ALWAYS MISS ME.

OF COURSE.

HMM, COME, WE HAVE
A PLANE TO CATCH.

[plane engine whirring]

(Operations) HAVING ADRIAN
DOES NOT GIVE YOU FREE REIGN.

NIKITA'S MISSION IS JUSTIFIABLE

AND I'M SURE NOT EVEN OVERSIGHT

WOULD TAKE KINDLY
TO YOUR INTERFERENCE.

YOU ARE EXPENDABLE.

I KNOW.

IT'S OVER, MICHAEL.

NIKITA HAS HER JOB TO
DO, AND YOU HAVE YOURS.

FORGET ABOUT HER.

IS THAT ALL?

FOR THE MOMENT.

(justice) DO YOU, HELMUT VOLKER,

TAKE THIS WOMAN, ANNA GOERNER,

TO BE YOUR LAWFULLY WEDDED WIFE

TO LOVE, HONOR, AND CHERISH

AS LONG AS YOU BOTH SHALL LIVE?

I DO.

AND DO YOU, ANNA GOERNER,

TAKE THIS MAN, HELMUT VOLKER,

TO BE YOUR LAWFULLY
WEDDED HUSBAND

TO LOVE, HONOR, AND CHERISH

UNTIL DEATH DO YOU PART?

I DO.

THEN BY THE POWER VESTED IN ME,

I PRONOUNCE YOU MAN AND WIFE.

YOU MAY KISS THE BRIDE.

[woman speaking French]
