Michael Samuelle quotes from La Femme Nikita

Michael

What did they do to you?

Nikita

Nothing. Nothing!

Michael

Tell me.

Nikita

Don't. I don’t know. Don’t remember. Don’t. It doesn’t work. I don’t love you anymore.

Nikita

They're watching us.

Michael

I know.

Nikita

What are you doing here?

Michael

I want some answers. We have two minutes.

Michael

Why?

Nikita

They tried to reprogram me. I had to let them think they'd succeeded.

Michael

When did it start?

Nikita

Genefex Mission.

Michael

You weren't at the rendezvous point.

Nikita

Birkoff sent me upstairs and Madeline was waiting. I was tranq'ed. I don't know what they did but when I awoke, I knew they'd been messing with my mind. They tried to strip me of my humanity. No feelings. No connection with anyone.

Michael

Why didn't you let me help you?

Nikita

There was too much surveillance. Believe me... believe me. I have to go.

Nikita

They want you dead.

Michael

I know.

Michael

Do you know who you are?

Nikita

Do I know who I am? I'm me... and I love you.

Michael

Do you? Or do you want to kill me?

Nikita

Why are you talking like this?

Michael

If I hand you this gun, are you going to shoot me? You won't have any reason to hesitate. The order has been given.

Nikita

Michael. You don't belong here anymore, Michael.

Michael

Why are you saying that?

Nikita

'Cause you don't have what it takes. If you did, I'd be dead.

Michael

They changed you.

Nikita

Something better.

Michael

You only think that because you can't remember what you were.

Nikita

I remember. I prefer this. No needs, no fears, no desires. I used to think you were like that. But you're not, are you? You're weak. You should let them make you feel stronger.

Michael

There was a time when we used to care for each other.

Nikita

Well that time is gone. There's nothing you can do to change that. If you think otherwise, then you're the one that needs help.

Madeline

That's what I told Operations. He's not convinced. Regardless of Adrian, he's thinking about reinstating your cancellation orders.

Michael

I understand.

Madeline

You're not afraid to die, are you Michael?

Michael

No. You've seen to that.

Nikita

I don't care about you.

Michael

Yes you do. You just need time to remember. You're going through withdrawal.

Nikita

From what?

Michael

Gelman's maintenance drug.

Nikita

Why do you care?

Michael

Drink this.

Nikita

Don't come near me. You had me emotionally, Michael you blew it. Does it hurt to be on the other side? Are you in pain?

Michael

You have to drink this.

Nikita

You're dead Michael! When they find out you're off profile, you're dead!

Nikita

I slept.

Michael

Yes...

Nikita

There's still pain.

Michael

It'll go away.

Nikita

When?

Michael

When you let it go, Nikita.

Nikita

Michael. I love you.

Michael

We can't stay here.

Nikita

I know.

Michael

We have to be stronger than them.

Nikita

I'd rather die than go back now.

Michael

Don't say that.

Nikita

Why?

Michael

Because I can't live without you.

Michael

Where are you staying tonight?

Nikita

They’ve assigned me to temporary quarters while they scrub all traces of the Gelman process from my little apartment. I’ve got to say, my new pad’s almost as nice as this.

Michael

For how long?

Nikita

Two weeks.

Michael

You could stay with me.

Nikita

Are you asking me to move in with you?

Michael

You’d be more comfortable.

Nikita

Well, is this for two weeks or were you thinking of something a little more... permanent?

Michael

We’d have more privacy.

Nikita

And how is it that you think that we’re going to get away with that?

Michael

Adrian.

Nikita

I’ll think about it.

Michael

Drugs are the only thing I sell.

Freddie... If somehow I’ve created the wrong impression here, if I made you think that I thought that I could purchase this gorgeous creature, then I’m profusely sorry. You more than anyone should know, one look at her, she’s priceless.

Michael

Then consider the cost in the event you were to break something.

Are you threatening me? I think I’m beginning to like you.

Karen thinks my dress is tacky, too obvious. What do you think?

Michael

It is.

Michael

What are you thinking?

Nikita

About the man I’m going to marry. It’s one thing to convince another man that I love him enough to marry him, but the idea of not seeing you again...

Michael

You have to separate Anna’s life from Nikita’s.

Nikita

Is that what you did with Elena?

Michael

I tried.

Nikita

So even with everything that you went through, you still think it’s possible to hold on to your heart?

Michael

Yes. We’ll find a way to stop this.
