Happenings

  • Nikita begins and ends the episode by staring at an out of focus pink object barely touching the left edge of the screen. The object matches the color of the rubber masks Alex and her partner were wearing when they committed the robber that sent Alex to prison.
  • Nikita kidnaps Birkoff, interrogates him and then releases him.
