| Michael's POV Onscreen:
16 minutes |
Concerned for Nikita’s
health following a cold, Michael comes to realise that Nikita is not in fact who she
appears to be. Michael decides to get closer to the look alike, and makes love to her
while the real, captive Nikita looks on. We finally learn Michael’s codename –
Jacques. Michael deliberately traps impostor Abby into thinking she is going on a mission,
but it is a set-up to destroy her controller, the Inquisitor from War. |

"Maybe you need some rest."
"If she wanted to
betray us she would have made it less obvious."
"You weren’t hit
even after they went down, and they didn’t fire at the van, not once."
"How do you feel?"
"I’ll be there." |
Performance Rating
 |
Roy shows his ability to
scene-steal, making up for minimal dialogue with très effective use of his eyes; the
concerned looks at Nikita, the searching looks at Abby, the moment of realisation when
Abby goes too far, and the final inspired turn away from the sight of the Nikita
look-alike being killed. |
