Operations and Nikita in “First Mission”

You still don't understand what you are dealing here, do you? You think you are a lonely beacon of decency in an insane world or something like that. Isn't that true? The section isn't me or Madeline or Michael. It's bigger, deeper, smarter than any of us.

You make it sound like it's alive.

Oh, yes, and we all walk a narrow path to keep it that way.

Path without feeling, compassion, or hope.

Yes.

We die so the section can live.

Yes.

I can't accept that.

You have no choice, Nikita. No one does, especially me. Do you understand?

I understand that you are talking to me for once.
