Amanda quotes from Nikita

Amanda

[to Alex] What does the butterfly on your back mean if not transformation?

Amanda

Sometimes vulnerability can be our greatest weapon.

Amanda

I'm proud of you Alex; you really do remind me of Nikita.

Amanda

Michael, I've done this before. All the drug addicts that wind up here as recruits, I'm practically running a rehab clinic.

Amanda

In her dream state Alex projects a mysterious female nemesis was chasing her. She kept repeating "it's her, she's coming". At first I thought she meant me, then Nikita perhaps, but now it makes perfect sense. Given her guilt about Thom, the answer is obvious; she's afraid of herself.

Amanda

[After discovering how Jaden died] Alex, one more thing. Are you familiar with Division cochlear implants? Division's been developing them for quite some time. They go into the subjects' ears and are virtually undetectable, even the subjects they're planted on. How much longer did you think you could hide who you really are, Alexandra?

Amanda

I'm not going to hold onto you like I held onto Nikita.

Amanda

The elevator doesn't lead to freedom. Just another room.

Alex

What?

Amanda

The more you try to get out, the more you realize there will always be another room.

Amanda

Did you ever have feelings for her? If you have an emotional connection to Nikita, it's perfectly natural. Coworkers often develop physical and emotional attractions for one another.

Birkhoff

She was a recruit. A super hot one, yeah. But I know the rules. Look, but don't touch.

Amanda

She's not a recruit anymore.

Amanda

Your first provisional assignment. It's a big step.

Nikita

Please don't say "You're a woman now."

Nikita

So what's it gonna be? Knives, needles, electroshock?

Amanda

You have a preference?

Nikita

Not really. None of them are gonna make me talk.

Nikita

I never lied to you. That was just my identity. You were never my family.

Amanda

We clothed you. We fed you. We taught you how to protect yourself.

Nikita

You taught me how to kill and you forced me to do it.

Amanda

Nikita if it's a question of who sinned first we can always go back to the girl on death row. You were a killer before you came to us.

Nikita

[Inside Alex's drug-induced dream state] Wait here. I'll take care of it. [Nikita ascends the platform in order to fight Michael. However, after a moment of fighting they begin kissing passionately]

Alex

I knew there was something between them. Michael was all [Imitating Michael's voice] "Nikita's like a cancer." That's personal baggage.

Amanda

[Watching and listening to Alex outside the dream state] I've always thought so.

Amanda

You of all people should know the consequences of falling in love with an agent.

Michael

Yeah, I'll keep that in mind.

Amanda

Division was created to stop threats and right now mour most dangerous threat is...

Alex

...Nikita.

Amanda

She can cause a klot of pain and suffering with that black box.m

Alex

Especially for your bosses. Oversight?
