Nikita S2E23 - English Transcript

Previously on Nikita Then allow me to prove myself. If I'm satisfied, we can aim higher. I'm aiming higher. Membership in your group. We'll see. - Damn. Percy's going nuclear. - And Nikita? She just thinks I'm building a bomb. Well, the early ballistic missiles used navigation satellites for targeting. What if the satellite is the weapon? I have commandeered an SDI satellite. All right, Percy. You have our attention. Let's take this to the next level. Mr. President, you're going to announce that peace talks between the Afghan government and the Taliban have failed. - Percy doesn't get to win. - Nikita, what do we do? We take away his trump card The satellite he controls from Division. Birkhoff, you quarterback. Alex and Sean, you take out the Division agents that control the entrance. Michael and I will infiltrate. Are you kidding? We can't go in that place. It's suicide. [Dramatic music] ♪ Blow the charge! Everyone, stop! Just calm down. You don't want to do this. [Panting] Open it or he dies. [Alarm blaring] I can't. [Breathing shakily] Let me out of here. There is no out. [Alarm blaring] Michael, crossbow's down. Percy's satellite is disabled. Both: [Grunting] Ah! Still training 'em real well down here. Michael. Michael? [Radio static] Nikita. Nikita! Birkhoff, copy back. [Panting] Status? The explosion took out server two, but core systems are intact. Exits are sealed. This is Percy. Division has been breached. Weapons restrictions have been lifted. You may arm yourselves at will. Michael and Nikita are in the facility. Find them, kill them, and you will be rewarded. [Dramatic music] ♪ [Rapid gunfire] Alex, are you there? Yeah, I'm taking fire! [Beeping] Just lost Nikita and Michael. Same here! Damn it. It's gotta be a lockdown. [Gunfire continues] I'm out! Alex! [Grunts] [Gunfire] [Bullets ricochet] [Screams] [Panting] What do you mean, dead? No signal traffic in or out. Only the guards can talk on a dedicated line. Division lockdown is designed for when a recruit tries to escape. Or an ex-recruit breaks in. Also means I can't tell you if the big particle beam in the sky is offline or not. Damn it. I gotta go. Mr. President. We're out of time, Mr. Fletcher. Percy's ultimatum was pretty clear. Sir, may we contact him? Tell him you need more time, the cabinet doesn't agree. This lunatic's already melted down one reactor with that particle beam. I will not stand by and watch him do it near a major city. I have to play along for now. Do you understand? Are the Marines in place? They're about a mile from the farm. Sir, I think you should reconsider the military option, especially against Division. Is there something that you're not telling us? The covert operatives I was working with-- Two of them are inside Division right now. Doing what? Trying to disable the satellite. I don't know if they've succeeded, but I do know if you send those Marines in, they'll be pinned down. I'm about to kill a peace treaty that this country's been praying for for a decade. Do you think my presidency's gonna survive that? If I go down, Percy goes down. As for your people, they're on their own. Michael, are you there? [Radio static] Yeah, I'm here. We're on the party line. Awesome. Hey, Division. It's great to be back. I've missed you. They're on the security channel. We can't update Birkhoff until we get up top. I need to get you out of here. Where do you want to meet? Well, the only place in Division we ever had any fun. Copy that. Good evening, everyone. [Camera shutters clicking] I've come to the conclusion that certain warrior cultures are incapable of finding peace, and it is for this reason and many others that I officially withdraw my support for this treaty. [Indistinct murmurs] It is deeply flawed, and it does not serve America's interests to support it. Peace may come, but not here, and sadly, not tonight. - Call off lockdown. - Sir? I need to make a phone call. [Alarm stops] It is for this reason and for many others [Phone rings] That I officially withdraw my support I'm watching. Ask and ye shall receive. Knock and the door shall be opened. So I'm in. The group has approved your status. However, you may have another problem heading your way. [Dramatic music] ♪ Those are US Marines. Vehicle signatures confirm it. You sure this is the only place we ever had fun? Sounds like we're about to have some more. [Beeping] [Exhales slowly] How many? [Keyboard clicking] Multispectral analysis puts the number of troops at [Beeping] 205. I don't understand. Division's part of government. Why would the Marines be here? I asked for them. They're here to make sure that Nikita and her little band of insurgents don't escape the perimeter. It won't be an issue if we find them first. [Gasping] I'm almost up top. What are the jarheads doing? They're in four-man units, taking positions along the perimeter. They're making the cordon. It's usually followed by a raid. They don't know us from the real targets, so just sit tight. That's the only way to sit right now. [Sighs shakily] [Helicopter blades whirring] You all right? [Panting] There's only one way for this to go. Downhill. After this whole thing's over-- You know, this whole storm the castle, save humanity thing-- I think you and me ought to go on a proper date. Are you kidding me? Hey, come on. Let me down easy, why don't you? There's literally hundreds of Marines out there, and you're thinking about that? Hey, you know, that-- That helps me focus. It gives me, uh, something to look forward to, you know? Like a goal. You are unbelievable. That's funny. It's not the first time I've heard that. Although usually, it's after the date. I'm just glad you're okay. Oh, Ryan, we'd be so much better without a couple hundred Marines waiting for us. I tried to call them off, but the President really wants Percy's head. Especially now that crossbow's down. Well, starting a war won't help. Tell the President we got a plan to hijack the comm system and get a message to everybody inside. If they find out the truth about Percy, they'll hand him over. [Phone rings] Hang on. Call coming in. Bold speech, Mr. President. Historical. Your satellite weapon's dead. You won't be far behind. See, that's why I didn't vote for you. You don't know how to solve the problem that's right in front of you. You're just like every tin-pot dictator I've ever had to shake hands with. You are a small man with a big chip on your shoulder, a common thug. There's nothing common about me. And as far as my satellite weapon being dead, it was never alive in the first place. What the hell are you talking about? Power, Mr. President. Real power. The kind that changes history. The kind that Cortez had over the Aztecs. They fell to their knees and gave up without a fight. Why? Because they believed he could turn off the sun. All he did was check the charts and saw an eclipse was coming. You're saying there was never any satellite? Oh, it's-- It's up there. Took some trouble to get control of it too. I even re-tacked the trajectory just to seal the deal. But the particle beam-- That was always fiction. Brilliant science fiction. They never got that to work. Then how did you blow the reactor? Easy. Put a little plutonium inside a demon core, and the next thing you know, ka-boom. A cataclysmic reaction that you naturally took to be a laser beam from outer space. This whole thing's been a giant con. - [Sighs] - You, Mr. President In your loincloth, with a bone in your nose, trembling with fear and awe at my feet as I turn off the sun. And I'm gonna do it again. The remaining plutonium is in the hands of my most trusted operative. He has orders to cause another meltdown, this time in a major metropolitan area, unless he's told to abort. [Crickets chirping] [Silenced gunshot] What do you want? To surrender. I've saved this country more times than you or anyone else will ever know. A warrior deserves a little respect, don't you think? I will walk out of here, Mr. President, maybe not a hero, but on my own terms Immunity and the retirement of my choosing. If my operative doesn't hear from me in the next 30 minutes, he will proceed as planned. What if I say no? Don't say no. His most trusted operative. It's gotta be Roan. Birkhoff, do you have any idea how to find him? Off the top of my head, no. Roan doesn't exactly smile for security cameras. What about his vehicle? He's probably using a Division car. Could work, if I could get my hands on a vehicle manifest. Nikita, we need to find Roan and get the plutonium out of the equation. I agree. Alex and Sean, you go after Roan. - Got it. - What about us? We go after Percy, take him out of the equation. I knew she was gonna say that. Unless we all think that he's gonna retire. Look, it's just another play. He's probably got somebody waiting on the outside. Then it's settled. Are you forgetting about the Marines? I can get you past the Marines. Birkhoff, try and hack the vehicle manifest. Nikita and Michael, good luck. Alpha team seven, I've got you in the west service corridor. Please proceed to. [Beeping] [Whispering] Are you insane? If Percy catches us, you're gonna get me killed. I know, I know, I know. Listen, I'm sorry, Sonya. I'm in a serious jam here. I really need your help. Look. Percy is a bad guy. You know that, right? Just nod. I need to find Roan. It's important. Look, if Percy strikes again and another reactor melts down, those Marines out there are gonna melt you down. And everyone around you. I'm trying to save your life here, Sonya. Now, all you have to do is let me look at who checked out what vehicle today. [Whispers] All right. But no more. [Exhales, kisses hands] I could kiss you. [Beeping] Birkhoff, we're here. Security camera has Roan's SUV pulling in three hours ago, and it never sees it leave. Found it. Car looks empty. Approaching to confirm. - Hey. You never said yes. - To what? The date. You never asked me out on a date. You said I was a goal. Really? I could've sworn I asked you out. Shh. [Ominous music] ♪ Birkhoff, we got a body. ID? Nothing. All right, uh, snap a photo, send it over to me. Yeah. Sending. [Beeping] Alpha team five, a panel's been breached inside the environmental control room on sublevel two. ECR is clear. The panel was opened with a small charge. It was left here. They were trying to draw the teams there. Why would they do that? Freeze! Trust me. I'm not gonna move. But if you shoot me, things might get messy. You trained us for this, sir. We're fully prepared to shoot you and jump on that grenade. "In the event of a breach, the integrity of operations must be maintained. If your actions threaten that, you regroup and form a new approach. " Apparently, I didn't train you well enough. [Grunts] You were probably busy training me. Where's Percy? Where is he? I don't know. Oh, you don't know. Office? I can redirect security from here. Clear you a path. Go. Nikita. Be careful. Speak for yourself, hon. [Phone dialing] En route to target. Get in your position and wait for the signal. Nikita, where are you? In the lighting tube. I'm about to land. All right, you're clear. [Faint humming sound] Finally realized what I hate about this place. It's the hum. Hello, Nikita. [Voice echoing] We're not letting you go. [Panting] Michael, I'm in Amanda's old place. [Beeping] Wait, stop. There's an Alpha team right outside. Get rid of them. Don't. All right, everyone, listen up. Most of you people know me, and you know I'm not the enemy. Neither are they. What did Percy tell you they were here for? To help catch you. They're here for Percy. Open your eyes. [Beeping] Sonya, she's on sublevel four. [Beeping] Alpha teams three and six, there's been a reported sighting on sublevel seven. Move out. Nikita, you're clear. Right outside his office. Override the security on that door. [Keyboard clicking] [Beep] [Door clicks] You're empty. Going upstairs to surrender to the law. That not good enough for you? It's not good enough for you. You have a way out of this. I just don't know what it is yet. Where's Roan? Ah, as we say in the trade, that's for me to know and you to find out. Where is he? [Panting] - Where? - You can't kill me. Heart trigger. The second I die, Roan gets a signal. The meltdown begins. Then I'll torture it out of you. We got time. No, you don't. The search team will be here any minute. It's gonna take longer than that to break me. Then we'll buy some time. You're gonna get on that intercom, and you're gonna call off the boys, or I take off your boys. They won't believe me. Sure they will, because you're gonna tell them something they've never heard before. The truth. [Intercom beeps] This is Percy. I'm sure you're all very curious to know what's been going on today. I started this organization not just to protect the country, but to save young lives, give them a new direction. And I guess somewhere along the way, I lost direction myself. [Inhales deeply] Stopped seeing you as great Americans and started to view you as mercenaries. A means to an end. Little by little, Division became a criminal organization. Those Marines are out there to shut us down, bring it to an end. By morning, you'll all be dead or renditioned to a secret prison or some godforsaken place because of me. I betrayed you, each and every one of you. [Inhales] And I don't regret a minute of it. If anybody has a problem with that, come to my office, you useless, pathetic street trash. What are you doing? Throwing gas on the fire. Let's get him. [Dramatic music] [Rapid beeping] They don't care what happens to me-- Little army of Nikita's. They don't care if I die. But you should. You ***. This is your final mission, Nikita. Stop the meltdown. Save the world. The only way to do that is to get me out of here alive. Relax. [Magazine snaps into place] I'm not gonna shoot you. You're my bodyguard. I need you. Nikita, the natives are getting restless. You gotta move. [Rapid beeping] [Gunfire] [Dramatic music] ♪ [Beeping] Birkhoff, Roan killed this guy for a reason. Please tell me you got a hit. Working on it. There you are. You can hide, but you can't run. What the hell? Hang on a second, guys. He's a what? Says he works in waste remediation at a classified government site. He's like a super secret janitor. It's something called NMR. Never heard of it. Must be over my clearance. Mr. President? We believe Percy may be targeting something called NMR. Do you know what that is? [Sighs] Of course. It's the National Mall Reactor, right below us. A nuclear reactor under DC? It's kind of a backup generator for the government. We put it in during the y2K scare. Birkhoff, did you get that? I got it, and we're on it. Almost through, sir. Advance team, prepare to breach. Nikita, there's an Alpha team on your six, just around the corner. [Panting] [Voice echoing] Nikita. Interesting name. You are going to serve your country. Welcome to Division. Someone order up a cruel irony? Shh. So, the national mall reactor. You never could resist cheap symbolism. Parting shot at the Prez. I'm afraid you'll never find Roan in there. Alex and Sean are tracking him right now. The princess and the seal? There's a circus act if ever there was one. It's too late, Nikita. After tonight, no one will be able to touch me. What is that supposed to mean? It means I'm done with Division. I'm moving on. And you? Everything in your life, anything with any meaning, came from inside these walls. You'll never be able to let go of this place. Has he swiped the stolen ID through any checkpoints? - Not yet. - How about the facility? There can't be that many places for him to inject the plutonium. Actually, there can. The cooling system has multiple access points throughout the compound. Fantastic. Oh, and guns and nuclear reactors don't play well together. Just saying. [Sighs] Okay, I think we should split up. - Huh? - You go that way. I'll take this way. Better chances of finding Roan. Oh. Okay. Hey, I didn't meant to put you on the spot before. Oh, it's okay. I just-- I get nervous in the field. About you. I can take care of myself. So is that a no? You still haven't asked me yet. [Grunts] Birkhoff, what's the update on Roan? - You'll never find him. - Shut up. Unfortunately, I think he's right. We got Alex on site, but we're talking serious maze. Maybe Percy was lying about the NMR. Yeah, he's lied about everything else. Hey. [Elevator dings] Drop it! Drop it now. You don't want to be doing this. [Panting] Please. Trust me. I hate him too. I'm in a hurry. Commander, this is red team. Go ahead. We got two tangos near the barn, sir. One of them says he's surrendering. Copy that. Escort them to my position on the double. That's far enough! It's over, Percy. You got what you wanted. Call off the meltdown. Well, I guess this is good-bye. One last thing, though. - Oh! - Nikita! - [Grunting] - Sir. Sir! Nikita! I brought you into this world, and I can take you out. Down the hatch. [Groaning] Help me up. I'm done helping you. If I die, Roan gets the signal. Birkhoff, there's gonna be a signal from the Division silo in about five seconds. Get ready to track it. Nikita. No-- [panting] [Glass cracking] [Glass shatters] [Exhales] [Rapid beeping] Got him. I got him. He's at the South access tunnel. He's near the cooling conduit. [Beeping] [Beeping] Agh! [Grunting] [Bones crunch] [Screams] - [Screams] - [Screams] [Electricity crackling] [Screaming] Both: [Panting] So, you wanna go out? - Don't do this. - Nikita-- She's making a mistake, Ryan. Tell her. This is no longer your mission. Advance team, what's your status? [Rapid gunfire, men screaming on radio] Advance team. [Screaming intensifies] Advance team, come in! Listen to me. Division's back is up against the wall. They will fight to the death. If you pursue this course, I am telling you, all you're doing is upping the body count on both sides. What course would you have me pursue? Right now, they are in a command crisis. Their master is dead. They're looking for orders. Let me go down there. You? You're their enemy. Division agents only respect what they've been made to fear. They've been made to fear me. My fight was never with you. It was with Percy. You know this. I've spoken to the Vice President. Told her that I could negotiate the peaceful surrender of all personnel. She believed me. But I think you all know better than that. Don't you? The second you put down your guns, they'll gun you down, because legally, Division doesn't exist. That's gonna change today. And they're just gonna have to deal with it. You are not invisible. You exist. And if they want to get to you, they're gonna have to go through me first. Let's talk. Immunity, identity, absolution. Never gonna happen. But I can promise no custody, no extreme rendition. Rendition? How do you think we got here? The government told us they were giving us a second chance, but they never gave us a choice. The oval office is never gonna give everyone in this facility a golden parachute. The problem is a lot bigger than this facility. Division field agents all over the world have heard about this breach. They're not gonna come in from the cold, Ryan. They'll go rogue. I know. That's why I told the Vice President the ideal unit to control the fallout from Division is Division itself. Keep Division running? Until we can clean up the mess it's made. There are still monsters out there. [Chuckles] After three days, finally. [Beeping] I told you it could be done. This is insane. What kind of secrets are these? The kind that kill. Who else but Division is going to stop them? I heard Percy tell the President he was just a messenger, probably for whoever is on the other side of his surrender. We need to find out who that person is. So Division is going to run itself. No. They want me to run it. I'm not gonna do it without you. This isn't going to work. It's the only way it works. Nikita. Nikita, you can trust me. This isn't what we've been fighting for. I think we're fighting for justice. [Voice fading out] Is that what you call this? This is the best thing we can do. I was saving lives, lives that the system was gonna throw away. Are you telling me you think there's a good side of Division? No. Not unless you're running it one day. Or you. When they gave you the ability to kill, they also gave you the ability to protect. They want an answer. What's it gonna be? Division is in good hands with Ryan, Nikita. We can go. Where? Home. Remember? You did say that. I said it. But I don't know what a home is, Michael. I've never had one. All I know is I grew up here. I learned right from wrong here, and I fell in love here. Those people down there-- They deserve a chance, and you know we can give that to them. You think I'm crazy, right? That is just wrong. What numb nuts turned this place into the starship Enterprise? I need to hunt down loose trackers, but I'm not sure that the servers are capable, and I thought you could reconfigure them. Sure. Let me show you how it's done. They have sustained a lot of damage with all the gunfire. Hi. You know how Division feels about fraternization. Division's dead, baby. Isn't it? [Exhales] Where am I? Closest hospital that won't ask questions. Division. [Groans] Hey, uh, speaking of questions, there's, uh, a yes-or-no question that, when you passed out-- There was a lot going on, but, um, maybe, uh-- [Footsteps approach] - Alex. How are you feeling? Uh, getting there. Hey. Are you okay? What happened? A lot. Do you remember what I said when I decided I was gonna let you infiltrate Division? "Here we go. " Here we go again.
