Madeline and Nikita in “New Regime”

I think it's pretty clear. Operations is a better choice than Petrosian.

Better for whom?

If you had doubts, why did you side with us?

Petrosian was willing to give me a life, as much as one can have inside Section. But in order to get it, I lied, I bullied, and, who knows, eventually I might have even… killed in cold blood. In other words, I found out what it's like to...to be you.

And you didn't like it.

No, I didn't.

Power is addictive, Nikita. You've had a taste. It's in your blood now.

You're wrong.

You'll be back. It's only a matter of time. But there'll be one difference. The next time… I'll be waiting for you.
