Mr. Jones and Nikita in “A Time For Every Purpose”

Mr. Jones

I'm afraid I lied. It is not you they want. It's me. I do apologize for this whole charade, but you see, I had to make it appear convincing. We were under constant observation by my colleagues, and they certainly wouldn't allow me to give myself up. So, it all comes down to you, Nikita. I need your promise that you will return to Section and become Operations, and eventually take over for me, as I had always planned. I cannot go, if you don't say yes.

Nikita

Yes.

Mr. Jones

Good. One day you will realize it is the right decision. Always trust your father.
