Just finished watching "Nikita", and ...

Daaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaamn! 

Way to season premiere #like a boss!

Seriously, if Nikita and Season Premiering were in prison, Season Premiering would be it’s bitch!

So much to love about this episode …

Nikita Mama Bearing, and worrying about Alex so much throughout the episode.  When Nikita got that “tearful” phone call from Alex, the concern and love and fierce protectressness that Maggie managed to convey was amazing to watch! 

That last confrontation between Nikita and Alex!  “I’m doing this because I care.”  I cannot even! 

Alex’s screams of pain like tore into my goddamn heart!  Lyndsy Fonseca, how are you so good?  And Maggie Q making my heart ache for Nikita as she breaks the girl she helped put back together … my heart, how are you so good Maggie Q?

I loathe that new guy Sean already!  Please do not hook Alex up with this douche!  Please!  She’s been through enough!

I love everything Amanda and Alex as well.  They dynamic between these two is so fucked up and yet so intriguing and beguiling.  I’m creeped out and turned on everything they’re on screen together, but no matter how uncomfortable I feel I can’t look away.  I nearly lost my shit when Amanda’s ‘Defiling Alex Now’ white shade of privacy fell down!  I’m gonna have fun watching them.

Percy actually managed to work up a little bit of menace this episode.  I found him more interesting in this episode than all of the first season!

“Aw, Nerd.  You’re lonely!”

LOL.  I love funny!Nikita, and it was nice to see Birkhoff worked back into the action.

In conclusion, I CANNOT wait for episode 2x02!

I second everything you said. I also love how Alex was acting over the phone to Nikita. She was having emotions cross her face even over the phone. Haha.

But damn. Nikita did point out that Alex shot her to save her life and I guess she felt she was doing the same. That's a hardcore breakup all the same.

I also love how Alex was acting over the phone to Nikita.

Yeah, Lyndsy's face was conveying all sorts of emotions during that phone call. And I love how Alex blew her cover and got out of the car. She knew she couldn't do anything, but her natural instinct was to try and help Nikita in some way.

And yeah, that was one hardcore breakup. Nikita doesn't fuck around. She did try to get Alex to stop though. Still, the gun shot to the leg was like "do not fuck with Nikita, even if she loves you she will still shoot your ass!"
