Two out of four stars,īillie Doux loves good television and spends way too much time writing about it.Īnonymous Saturday, Januat 1:21:00 AM EST This episode wasn't perfect, but there was a lot to like about it. Operations: "She doesn't have what it takes.
Nikita: "I think you hate me enough to pay that price." Operations: "Killing you would have sabotaged the mission." Jones: "You really have faith in your power over him, don't you? How much power does he have over you?" He appears to like interesting angles and long shots, occasionally from above. "Protocol Eight" appears to involve exploding something that will sacrifice personnel along with the enemy to cover the retreat of more important personnel. "Article Three" seems to be a death match situation. Bad graphic when Operations' plane was hit the second time. Jones actually showed affection for Nikita. They don't seem either interesting or flamboyant. If Michael can't find Adam, how on earth will the Collective? I'm still finding the Collective to be way too pedestrian to be frightening. I knew she was working for Center all the cool people do these days. Quinn got her turn in the chair, but not for long. I'm more than ready for Michael to come back now. Nikita is certain Michael wants to buy his way back into Section for Adam's sake. And there was exoneration for him, which wasn't a surprise. No Michael in this episode, but at least they were talking about him all the time. Hasn't Jones been monitoring Nikita's progress for the last seven years? If he hasn't noticed in all that time how Nikita feels about Michael, he hasn't been paying attention. If you find him alive, eliminate him." Yeah, that'll happen. Jones told Nikita, "I want you to take charge personally. Maybe, if she were in charge, Nikita would remake Section into something much better. Treating people humanely has its advantages.
Maybe the savior analogy isn't that far off. Was it his experience and knowledge that made her spare him? Operations assumed it was an emotional decision, but I'm not so sure. Is she really? Operations said that Nikita didn't have the stuff because she showed compassion when it came right down to it, Nikita couldn't let Operations die. Jones believes that Nikita is the Jesus Christ of Section. He managed to look both out of place and competent at coping with the situation at the same time. I also liked the sequences with Operations on his own, staggering through the woods. I loved his shock when she shot at him in Section. The struggle for power between them has been one of the highlights of season five for me. It's high noon, and there's no room in Section for both of them. Operations and Nikita, celebrity death match. Operations, Michael and the Collective, Quinn undercover for Mr. This was an odd episode with a lot of separate pieces that weren't very cohesive: Nikita vs.
