NIKITA: Six years ago, I was taken from prison...
...and forced to become an assassin for a secret unit of the government:
A black-ops program called Division that has now gone rogue.
They destroyed my identity and they destroyed the man I loved.
I escaped and now the man that trained me...
...someone I trusted, is hunting me.
Division's power and influence continues to grow.
No one is outside their reach...
...and they will annihilate any person...
...any government that stands in their way.
But along with my partner, Alex, who is undercover inside Division...
...I will stop them.
I will protect the innocents they target...
...and I will make them pay.
ALEX: This is how it's gonna go down.
Two security guards by the main entrance.
Single-zone walkthrough metal detector...
...hardwired to dedicated police alarm...
...which takes us to two closed-circuit security cams.
Once we're past the lobby, we move into the main hall.
That's where the guests will be.
The attack will be timed so we reach the takedown point...
...just as the target hits the stage.
- Time? - Eight minutes, 37.
We add two minutes for evac, we still have a 30-second cushion.
ALEX: Eleven minutes.
That's how long it'll take to kill Prince Erik of Georgia.
You'll be posing as members of the Georgian armed forces?
You know they're loyal to the existing administration.
So Georgia's president hired Division?
To dress up as his own guys? No. It's definitely a false flag mission.
Someone wants the president to take the fall for killing the prince.
Good way to start a coup.
And I warned her that I don't own a castle...
...but she still said yes.
I did buy him some shining armor for a wedding present.
- Yes. Very difficult to get dry-cleaned. - I can imagine.
But Princess Kristina, you're also from royalty, correct?
Yes. Erik and I both come from families with claims to the throne...
...and uniting our bloodline has given our supporters a huge boost.
But beyond that, I've always taken my heritage seriously.
That's why I'm so excited about the crown jewel exhibit...
...we've brought to America.
It's a pretty high-profile op for your first mission.
- Michael must really believe in you. - No, Michael's not in on it.
He's not?
You know how he feels about Percy's mission-for-hire jobs.
Besides, he's busy reconfiguring Division's defenses.
You exposed some pretty big holes when you busted out of there.
Has he asked about me?
In an operational context, that is.
Not lately.
So, what was the deal with you and Michael?
Let's just focus on the mission.
What kind of intel does Division have?
Everything.
Security detail, personnel lists, itinerary for the royal couple.
All official.
NIKITA: We're going to need to get a copy of those.
- Can I help you, agent? - Where's Birkhoff?
On leave. Can I help you with something?
Uh, I was just going to review the tactical plans for Operation Castle.
Electronic tablet or sent to your smartphone?
Phone is fine.
Done. Anything else?
No. Thank you.
Alex. Prepping for your op?
It's the key to success, right, preparation?
Steven's a good man, a good team leader for your first.
How about you?
Are you done making this place Nikita-proof?
Almost.
Still need to set some redundancies.
She has a way of corrupting systems from the inside.
Like a cancer.
Alex.
There's no such thing as an easy mission.
Won't be easy. Someone on the inside's a source.
Someone with top-level clearance.
General Anton Zahidov, head of Intelligence Services.
He'd have the most to gain from an assassination.
Zahidov's been openly critical of the president.
With some popular support, he could start an uprising.
He'll have plenty of it after the prince is assassinated.
So we need to get to the prince.
Zahidov's head of his security. He'll be watching him like a hawk.
What about Kristina?
You wanna get past Jafar, you go straight to Princess Jasmine, right?
Good. I'll work on a cover to get into the museum event.
We'll be in and out before Division even gets there.
Sounds easy enough.
So this is us on the outside.
- Working together. - A whole new world.
- Excuse me, Miss... - Kantaria. Leela Kantaria.
Ms. Kantaria, I'm sorry to disturb you, but it's urgent that I speak with the princess.
That may be difficult. Maybe later in the evening.
The Bagrationi necklace made by the Finnish jeweler Hiskias Pendin in 1860.
- Yes. Right over there. - It's fake.
I want to show you something.
Look at the chasing of the metalwork. It has none of Pendin's signature detail.
- You are certain? - Look at the clarity of the stones.
It's clearly all wrong.
Believe me. I've studied his work for many years.
- But the princess herself... - Curated the collection, I know.
I need to speak with her...
...save her the embarrassment from finding out from the media.
Come with me.
- Who is this? - She needs to speak to the princess.
- On what business? - Cultural.
Don't mind him. Someone forgot to take him for a walk today.
One moment.
Excuse me, princess. I have someone who needs to speak with you.
I thought I knew all the Pendin experts.
Well, my expertise lies in a very specific area.
Someone is going to kill your husband tonight.
They know your every move. They will strike within the hour.
- This is my private itinerary. - We need to warn the prince now.
- Who are you? - A friend.
- Zahidov. - No. He's compromised. Lose him.
I gave him an excuse.
All right, we need to get out of here.
Gentlemen, could I trouble you for the room for a minute?
All the security tonight are our people.
Where's your husband now?
Getting ready for his speech.
I have to find him, get you two out.
Is there any way that you...?
We have to get rid of her.
When I was told of your services...
...I was assured I'd receive the work of a fully professional organization.
And I can assure you that is indeed the case, Your Highness.
Don't condescend to me.
- Who the hell is this bitch? - She is a distraction.
One that you've done a very good job in dealing with.
- What does this mean for the plan? - Nothing. We're on the count.
Just keep her someplace safe until my people get there.
Although if you do kill her, I'd be happy to cut my commission.
Get me Steven.
Dispose of her somewhere out of view, quietly.
Remember, everybody move quickly, cover your AOR, stick to your routes.
One more thing. I just got word Nikita was on the scene.
How did she get ahead of us? Her mole was terminated.
She breached the data network last week. Must have intercepted the mission plan.
Nikita's not an issue. She's been put down.
Everybody stay off all tactical channels unless absolutely necessary.
- Hit the cell phone jammer. AGENT: Jammer active.
GUARD [OVER RADIO]: The prince is ready to go.
Good. Send two guards with him. I'll be right there.
[GRUNTING]
GUARD: We are now standing by with the prince.
Ladies and gentlemen, we here at the Thorburg Cultural Center...
...are honored tonight to be in the presence of royalty.
Their fairy-tale romance captured the imagination of the world.
Excuse me. You're not allowed...
[GRUNTING]
What is this?
Your life is in danger. You need to come with me.
[SCREAMING]
Who are they? Who are you?
Intros later. Now run.
Don't move.
Right there. Move it right there.
[IN GEORGIAN]
Where's the target? Who has eyes on?
Search the building. He can't be far. Guard the entrance. No one gets in or out.
Keep these people quiet.
I'm going to the security office to check the cameras.
Everyone stay calm and no one gets hurt.
Can we stop? What is going on?
- People are trying to kill you. ERIK: I gathered that.
- Why? - Why? Power.
Who? Well, Zahidov's in on it.
So is Kristina.
Kristina?
I never thought she would go this far.
What do you mean, go this far? Go.
The wedding, our marriage, it was something for our people to rally around.
Our families thought we'd help restore constitutional monarchy to Georgia.
- The way it had been before the Russians. - Sounds good. What happened?
I told Kristina that I was done after this trip.
I'm giving up the throne.
Why?
You don't love her.
People in love don't try to kill each other.
Are you serious?
I'm in love with someone else.
- Leela. - Leela, the assistant?
It's not what you think.
Kristina knows. I told her. She doesn't care.
Apparently she does.
You step down, she loses her path to power.
On the other hand, you die a martyr...
...she rides that wave of sympathy to the throne.
- Do you trust Leela? - With my life.
Good. That's what I'm gonna do.
- What's this? - Leela has a headset on.
It wasn't hard to find the frequency. I need you to get a message to her.
ERIK [OVER RADIO]: Leela, can you hear me?
- Erik? - Shh, shh.
Don't talk. They'll hear you, okay? Thank God you're okay.
Look, I'll come to save you, all right?
You need to know something. Kristina is behind this.
Leela. Do you see the terrorist, the brunette?
Give her your headset. Don't worry. She won't hurt you.
- Whoa, whoa, stop. - It's...
It's for you.
- Alex, it's me. - Where are you?
I'm safe. I have the prince.
- I'm guessing agents are looking for us. - Two.
Here's what I need you to do.
There's a trigger for a silent alarm in the security office. I saw it earlier. Trip it.
- Who is it? - It's Nikita.
Listen, I caught you once and I can do it again.
- Can you get to the security office? - I think you know that.
The prince will be safe with the police, but I can't get to them.
You need to bring the end zone to us.
You and the other agents, you can just surrender. Percy will save you.
You're never getting out.
- Nikita. - Another thing.
The woman who gave you the headset, she's with us. Protect her.
I know where the prince is.
Nikita.
NIKITA: I'll give you one chance. Leave now and none of you will get hurt.
The fact that you want us out means you're still in here.
And that means we'll eventually find you.
NIKITA: You can try, but you'll have to divide your forces.
Those hostages are gonna wanna leave.
- You think you can wait us out? - Here's a better question.
At what point do you think Percy will chalk this mission up as a failure?
When I was at Division...
I mean, I never got one of those demerits, but I hear they suck.
[DOOR OPENS]
Think about it.
Check back there.
[GRUNTING]
We will get you.
- You're hurt. - We gotta go.
Unh. Let's go. Come on.
[SIRENS WAILING]
- You need to go. Police will protect you. - I'm not leaving without Leela.
I'm going back for her. You need to get to safety.
I'm willing to give up the throne for this woman.
You think I'm going to run and hide when she needs me most?
Love over duty, huh?
Who wouldn't make that choice?
I know someone.
- Barricade the doors. - We should cut our losses.
- A tactical retreat out the back. - No.
We don't have a secondary plan for this.
- Percy... - Percy is not here.
I am.
We're not going anywhere.
- Main line into the museum? Great. - Yes, sir.
All right.
[RINGING]
You're on the hunt. She was in the east wing. Start there.
Clear an area, seal it, move on.
Take over the entry point. No one gets close. Stay, watch them.
We've lost two already. We should stand down.
- Division will extract us from custody... - Percy will realize this op is viable still.
Percy will want to know why an 11 -minute wolf-pack strike...
...turned into a public standoff with the N.Y.P.D.
He will cut us some slack when we kill Nikita.
- What are you doing? - Looking for something that'll help us.
- Halon gas. - What?
It's a compressed gas used to suppress fires.
There's no residue. That's why museums use it.
- Let me look at that ricochet wound. - It's okay.
No, really.
- I'm a doctor. - You're a doctor?
Is that like some honorary degree they give away to princes?
Yes, I'm a doctor of the tango.
I served in the army as a medic. Now sit down.
Yes, sire.
That's not so bad.
You'll need stitches, though.
Look, I want to tell you that Leela and I, it's not what you think.
We fell in love before I married Kristina.
- I'm not here to judge. - I know it sounds like a cliché...
...the affair with the assistant, but we've done nothing improper.
I will keep my vows. But this is why I must leave Kristina.
Why did you marry her in the first place?
My country needs inspiration.
They're not getting it from the current political leaders, so I agreed to fill a role.
Marrying Kristina, uniting the families...
...gave the monarchist movement the push that it needed.
I gave up Leela for the good of my people.
But how much good can I do for them if I can't be honest with myself?
Don't underestimate people.
All they really want is someone to believe in them...
...someone who'll fight for what they want.
- I'm sorry. - It's fine.
I don't have any anesthetic.
It's okay. I've had worse.
From doctors or other men?
You said that Kristina knows about your feelings for Leela.
Yes. Is that a problem?
Depends on how far Kristina's willing to take this.
He will be okay. Erik.
Let's hope so.
I just don't want you to worry.
He is strong and smart and he cares for people.
That is why we all love him.
You're right.
Erik is the best and brightest of Georgia.
And even if he falls, our country will go on.
These thugs will never win.
Fear will never win.
I agree.
I hope that the people behind this get everything they deserve.
What's going on?
Problem on Castle.
- Sit-rep? - Team went in with eight. Two down.
Local LEOs have set up a perimeter and as you can see, the media is there.
- Who went down? - Rogers and Downey.
- And Nikita's in there. - Of course she is.
We need a plan to get our men out without anyone finding who they are.
- Understood. - And if we could finish the mission...
...and get Nikita at the same time, well, that, that would be swell.
[IN GEORGIAN]
What?
You're not Georgian, so you must be a mercenary...
...but what is a girl your age doing with soldiers of fortune?
Just sit tight and you'll get through this.
But what about you? Will you get through this?
Working on it.
[STATIC]
Attention, N.Y.P.D. Commander. Attention, N.Y.P.D. Commander.
Okay, whoever this is, this is a reserved channel.
- You have to back off... - I'm inside the museum.
- Identify yourself. - I'm your eyes on the inside.
Roughly 50 canaries in the main hall, guarded by six or so crows.
They have assault rifles and small arms.
They are very well trained, extremely dangerous.
Okay, what do they want?
- Prince Erik, but he's safe with me. - Oh, yeah?
- And what do you want? - I want you to save the day, big guy.
Stand down your snipers. Do not engage these guys.
- What about the hostages? - Once I get Prince Erik out of here...
Once I get the prince and another hostage out, everyone will be fine.
The gunmen will recognize the tactical situation...
...do the smart thing and surrender. They've been trained to.
So you just want me to sit here and wait?
Right. Get the prince protective custody. Can you do that?
Okay, tell you what. You bring him to me, he'll be safe.
Okay, good. As long as we can keep things cool.
FBI. We'll be taking over from here.
Hello. Do you copy?
Hello, Nikita.
Michael.
Walk out now.
No can do.
You know, you play this game, things are gonna get a little messy.
Things are already messy, Michael.
I thought you didn't take part in Percy's mission-for-hire jobs.
I do what I have to do.
So do I. You have to know that, right?
I came here to get my people out.
Let the prince leave safely, then.
I'm not negotiating.
Some prince, huh?
The FBI is here.
Forward team, this is Michael. We're on site.
That's not the FBI.
- Team leader here. - What's the situation?
Steady. We've cleared the upper levels.
We're moving to the lower ones now. What's the plan?
I've taken control of the perimeter. We're gonna send in a strike team...
...but they are friendlies. I repeat, FBI agents are friendlies.
STEVEN [ON INTERCOM]: We won't engage the HRT. We'll stand down.
- What is the HRT...? - Shh.
STEVEN: Sir, I am closing in on this target.
I have agents headed toward the basement. If you hold off longer...
We have about 15 minutes before we get rolling. You have until then.
Thank you, sir.
We gotta get out of here. Come on.
Stay there.
What are you doing?
Someone has to talk to them. Everyone's looking to me for leadership.
Hold it.
On behalf of the hostages, I'd like to speak to the person in charge.
I know how to flush him out.
LEELA [ON INTERCOM]: Erik. Erik, I am sorry.
Sorry that you were forced to marry psychopath.
[GRUNTS]
STEVEN: Wherever you are, pick up a house phone.
No. Stop.
- Move. - They will kill you both.
I understand this woman is a person the prince cares about.
- So I just stand by, let her die? - If you pick up that phone...
...they know where we are.
Leave. I'll face them myself.
STEVEN: You have five seconds before I shoot her.
Five.
Four.
They won't do it. Listen. She's their only leverage.
STEVEN: Three. - I can't take that chance.
Unh!
Two.
One.
This won't work. Nikita knows a bad trade...
...when she sees one. - Well, it was worth the try.
Kill her. She knows about our arrangement.
Wait.
ALEX: Nikita, do you hear me?
What do you think you're doing?
Hear this.
[BONE SNAPS AND LEELA SCREAMS]
- Leela! ALEX: That's one finger.
I'll break another every minute until you pick up.
You do the math on how long you've got.
Stop it. That's not helping anyone.
Southeastern wing, subbasement. Meet me there.
Nice work. Keep her on the phone.
[LEELA GASPING]
This is how it's gonna go down. You have five minutes to turn him over.
Then your time is up. Do you understand?
- I understand I'm gonna kick your ass. - Well, you're welcome to come and try.
Just three of us here.
No problem for the famous Nikita, right?
There are three men coming. We have five minutes.
You need to get back out there, be the good princess.
- What about her? She knows everything. - I'll take care of it.
I hope your colleagues do the same.
Trust me. It's gonna be ugly.
[CLANGING]
[GRUNTING]
[GUNFIRE OVER RADIO]
We're going in. Safeties on. These are our people in there.
[GRUNTS]
Sounds like it's over.
- Erik? MICHAEL: This is Michael.
We're beginning the assault. Code green.
You wanna see your prince?
- Get out there. Get out there now. - I don't understand.
I'm sorry. I had to do that to make this all work.
Make what work?
- It's over. - We're alone.
- Leela's coming your way. - Great. Send her to the roof.
- Got it. - Hey, Alex.
Way to think on your feet, girl.
I'm still thinking.
Oh, I hear you.
[ALL SHOUTING]
Drop your weapons. Drop it. Now.
That was for my country.
- She was just selling the act. - So was I.
Secure the hostages. Donovan, Carlson, you're with me.
- Where you going? - Nikita's still in the building.
Safeties off.
LEELA: Erik. - Leela.
- You okay? LEELA: Yeah. Erik.
[SIRENS WAILING]
Guys, we have to go.
Head straight for the cop cars, okay? Do not surrender to the FBI.
- What about you? - Police and I don't mix.
Will we see you again?
Hopefully not, for your sake.
Fight for what you want.
I will if you will.
Thank you.
- Any word from Michael? - Closing in on Nikita.
AGENT [OVER RADIO]: Sir.
- What is it? - The prince is in N.Y.P.D. Custody.
Is Nikita with him?
There's a woman, but it's not Nikita.
Donovan, did you find anything? Donovan?
Damn it.
REPORTER [ON TV]: How's this for a shocker?
Princess Kristina was taken into custody this morning by Georgian officials...
...after she was implicated in a plot to assassinate her husband, Prince Erik.
The Georgian government says an anonymous source...
...has sent them security documents used in the planning of the attack...
...and that these documents originated from the princess' files.
These are difficult circumstances.
But as always, Georgia will persevere.
And I promise to do everything to help us through it.
What I have learned from this crisis...
...is that the easy thing to do is to run.
From your enemies, your responsibilities, your duties.
But the heroes, they stay and fight.
That is why, from now on...
...I will take my duties as prince even more seriously than before.
Kristina may no longer be at my side to help me with this task...
...but I'm sure that someday, the right woman will be.
- What are we drinking? - '98 Brunello.
Almond milk. February, 2011.
- It's a great year. Ha, ha. - Mm.
[PHONE RINGING]
It's Michael.
Go ahead. Your tracker reads like you're in your apartment.
ALEX: Hello, Michael.
Alex. Did I catch you at a bad time?
Not at all.
- How's your new place? - Great.
Feels like home already. What's up?
I just wanted to say nice work.
Nice work? We blew the mission.
Steven blew the mission.
From what I could tell reading all the debriefs, you kept cool.
- Steven overplayed his hand. - He was outplayed.
- By Nikita. - Nikita.
Alex, your report said she called up to the assistant's com...
...and specifically asked for you.
- That's right. - What did she say?
What didn't she say?
She said I'd pay for capturing her, that Division's a lie.
You know, song remains the same.
- You weren't concerned? - Not at all.
That's what I thought.
- Thanks again, Alex. - Bye.
- He was going over the debriefs? - Yeah.
Good. Let him.
We won this time. There's no getting around that.
