Michael quotes from Nikita

What drives you, Michael?

Michael

The thought that one day I'll get to kill you.

Nikita

Michael! Michael, don't do this. It's suicide.

Michael

That's why I have to do it alone.

Michael

Who would have thought you would have been the voice of reason?

Nikita

Revenge is not the answer.

Michael

Excuse me. Is this Nikita talking?

Nikita

That's different. I'm not throwing my life away.

Michael

That's your choice. This is mine. I hope you find what you're looking for.

Nikita

Shut up. You don't get to say your good-byes.

Michael

Good-bye, Nikita.

Nikita

Michael, Michael. Listen. Listen to me, Michael. You think you don't have anything to live for? You do. You have me.

Michael

What are you, the CIA?

Percy

Ugh, nothing that obvious.

Alex

You make it sound like you're my guardian angel.

Michael

In this op, I am.

Nikita

NYPD, do you copy?

Michael

Hello, Nikita.

Alex

Is it Nikita-proofed?

Michael

Almost. She has a way of corrupting things from the inside. Like a cancer.

Percy

First Owen, now Ryan, she always was the ultimate honey trap.

Michael

She remains a threat.

Percy

Yes she does, just as you remain head of the task force designed to stop her. How's that going for you, by the way?

Nikita

She told you about Daniel?

Michael

She's concerned.

Nikita

She's concerned?

Michael

Are you seeing him?

Nikita

I don't know what else to do. Michael, why are you sending me on this mission?

Michael

I didn't order this. Trust me. Relationships with outsiders are dangerous, Nikita. And not just for you. Do you understand?

Michael

You all right? Hey.

Nikita

You get what you wanted?

Michael

You will never have to be Josephine again. You have my word on that.

Michael

It seems like you struck another nerve with Nikita.

Percy

You talking about that little threat she spouted back there?

Michael

I promised her that she would never have to be Josephine again and you took her back there. Her threat is real.

Michael

She hasn't checked in, something might have gone wrong with that op.

Birkhoff

Or something went right with the date, shazam! Dude, you really need to get a sense of humor.

Michael

I don't laugh at your jokes because I have a sense of humor.

Birkhoff

Dude, you need to stop getting so personally invested in recruits. It never ends well for you; also it's getting kind of creepy. Alex is not Nikita.

Michael

Thanks for the tip.

Michael

If I had just listened to you 5 years ago, things could have been different.

Nikita

Things will be different.

Nikita

All in one piece. Unlike my ego.

Michael

Nikita, the man is gay.

Nikita

So?
