All language subtitles for NIKITA - S01 E04 - Rough Trade (720p BluRay)

Six years ago, I was
taken from prison...

and forced to become an assassin for
a secret unit of the government:

Black-ops program called Division
that has now gone rogue.

They destroyed my identity and
they destroyed the man I loved.

I escaped and now the
man that trained me...

someone I trusted,
is hunting me.

What Division doesn't know is that
I have a partner on the inside:

Alex, a new recruit
with a dark past...

who I've trained in secret
to resist their control.

Together, we're going to take Division
apart, one mission at a time.

And the last word they'll breathe
before the end will be my name.

- You're supposed to be in Demolitions.
- Got work to finish.

- Don't be late.
- Yes, sir, sergeant, sir.

Sorry I'm late. They keep
changing the schedule in here.

They do that. I'll be quick.

I need you on sentry duty
for the next three days.

I'm about to raise a little hell and I need
you to tell me when Division responds.

Got it. What are
you going to do?

Something I should've
done a long time ago.

Be ready.

- Sorry.
- No worries.

- Pretty good at that.
- Thanks.

You look just like your dad.

You knew my dad?

Sophie? Soph.

Thank you.

Lisa, don't move.

Oh, God. Please don't hurt us.

That would be a mistake.
Since when do you own a gun?

Since you killed my husband.

Relax your hand. If I wanted
to kill you, you'd be dead.

Your husband, Victor,
he was a good man.

He tell you about his work
with Homeland Security?

His work was classified,
he never told...

He was trying to take down
the Red Circle Triad.

They deal in slave labor for some
of the major fashion houses.

Six years after his death,
their business is booming.

That's why I'm here, Lisa.

I'm going after the Triad.

- But you work for the Triad.
- No.

But I believe they hired the
people I used to work for.

They used me to get close to
your family, to gain your trust.

Well, that worked, didn't it?

I didn't have a choice six years ago.
I do now.

I'm gonna bring down the bosses. But
I can't until I know you're safe.

You're gonna take that
car, you and Sophie...

and drive it to a lake house.
Stay there till you get my call.

No. No way.

Listen to me. Once I go
after these people...

they are gonna come
looking for you.

The only way to be safe
is to take that car...

and drive it to the address
on the navigation system.

Lisa, I'm not asking
for your forgiveness.

I'm asking you to
protect your daughter.

Well, that's not the
markup we agreed on.

You know, I don't care.

Talk them down or I'm
pulling the line.

Call Wholesale and make
sure they get that price.

Miss Wiles. Roxanne Barnes,
I'm the buyer from Midland.

Midland. I thought you
were coming next week.

I know, our schedule got shifted.
I hope it's okay.

And I just wanted to get it out of the way.
Personally, I'm a huge fan.

So you're here to put all my clothes
beside lawn mowers and shotguns...

all across America.

The world, actually.

We have 3600 stores.

Beautiful.

Quality's amazing,
considering where it's made.

Excuse me?

Oh, Miss Wiles, Midland has no
problem keeping costs down.

Your secret is safe with us.

I'm sorry, I'm not
following you.

Oh, well, I've got samples.
Maybe this will help.

Here we are.

What is this?

It's just 63 people who were
going to be your employees.

Port authority found them
last week, suffocated...

tragic accident of
human smuggling.

Your clothes are all
made in sweatshops.

The Red Circle Triad, they provide
your slave labor, don't they?

Who are you?

Somebody who would
never buy your crap.

Where's the sweatshop? You've had
your lawyers run interference...

so I know you know where it is.

- Tell me.
- Get out of my...

You scream and I
will snap your neck.

It's not so glamorous, is
it, feeling powerless?

Now, be a good slave and
give me the address.

Good morning.

As you are called upon for fieldwork,
you can count on one thing:

You will be asked to perform
highly involved tasks...

in exigent situations.

What we like to call
"grace under fire."

You've all been schooled
in IED interdiction.

But can you do it in a pinch?

There's a bomb under this car.

You have 30 seconds.
Who wants to go first?

Alex, you're up.

And begin.

I can't move. Get
me out of here.

Ah! Get me out of here!

Please get me out of here!

Get me out!

Come here.

It's okay.

Calm down. It's all right.
It's all right.

- I got this.
- It doesn't look like it.

What, are you checking up on me?

Not at all. You're
wanted in Operations.

Come on.

You'll be okay.

She ID'd herself
as Roxanne Barnes.

It's the name of an actual fashion buyer
for one of those chain retailers, Midland.

Apparently, Nikita broke
this lady's wrist.

- She's pissed off about something.
- So, what does Tonya Wiles do?

You mean besides provide stylish
ready-to-wear fashion...

for the everyday woman?

Here's a flag.

She was questioned last
year by Customs...

about a forced-labor scam run
by the Red Circle Triad.

Everybody lawyered up.
It went nowhere.

She's going back to
her first mission.

Her first kill.

Got a bead on her yet?

Um, she took on Tonya in Manhattan.
Uh...

27th Street, Fashion District.
Am I missing something here?

Why would Nikita follow up on a
kill she made six years ago?

The case is way closed.

Maybe she's reopening it.

Nikita, do you have a moment?

I've been down here a year.

- Got nothing but moments.
- Good. I'm on a schedule.

- What do you got behind your back?
- Nothing.

I may just have to
fight you for it.

- You scared?
- Terrified.

Okay.

One arm behind my back.

It's your funeral.

Oh! Michael.

- Wanna even the odds?
- Sure.

That was pretty good.

That's the big secret?
A key card?

It's your ticket to
the outside world.

You've been activated
for your first op.

- I get to leave?
- Well, the activation's provisional.

You have to come back
after the assignment.

Like a learner's permit?

But you have to
see Amanda first.

You're such a tease.

Don't attack so hard.
- That's the point.

Kobudo's about defense. You just thrash
at your opponent, you'll get nailed.

Still haven't let go
of what happened?

- Where you going?
- I gotta go to the computer lab.

- Right now?
- Two out of three after lunch?

Yeah, I'm there.

- Amanda would like to see you.
- I gotta...

Now!

What do I always say
about preparation?

It's the key to success.

Your first provisional
assignment.

It's a big step.

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

You have grown up over the last year.
I take some measure of pride in that.

Truth is, you've
earned our trust.

What is my first assignment?

Just remember, trust is
not something you win...

it's something you build,
and that's your assignment.

Build a trust so powerful it'd make
someone welcome you into their family.

Family...

Congratulations, Nikita.

Your references are stellar. I can
see why my wife wants to hire you.

Oh, it's not just that, Victor.
It's Sophie. She likes Nikita.

I can tell already.

- Honey.
- Oh, sorry.

No one said this thing was
gonna take over my life.

Century One to Century Two.
Front yard is clear.

- What is it you do, Mr. Han?
- I work for a new agency...

called Homeland Security.

Bush just created a new
cabinet post for it.

- You work for the government?
- Yes.

And I've got a few
enemies already.

Stop asking him questions.

You're supposed to be
gaining their confidence.

- If you feel uncomfortable, Nikita...
- No, I just...

I didn't know this is
what I signed up for.

Complete the mission.

- Okay, then?
- It's fine.

I was an au pair for a
expat family in Shanghai.

They had all kinds of
armed guards around.

Then we're good.

You'll be safe, so will my girl.

As long as we keep her
away from peanut products.

That's your thing. We don't know
that princess is gonna have...

the same little peanut
allergy as Daddy, do we?

Welcome to the family, Nikita. I gotta go
protect the homeland or whatever. Heh.

I was hoping not to use that.

This is pointless. I had a freak-out.
So what?

You had a panic attack, Alex.
An involuntary reaction...

to what, I'm not sure.

Let's talk about it.

I'm fine.

I've seen this a thousand times,
Alex, especially with new arrivals.

We take you in, turn you into something
new, even better than you were before...

but there's always something
you can't let go of.

What triggered the attack, Alex?

What was going
through your mind?

You really wanna know?

It's this place.

Reminds me of how
I used to live.

How I was forced to live.

When you were held
by the Russians?

Why don't we just say it?

When I was a sex slave.

They locked me in a hole and woke
me when it was time to perform.

At least they had the decency
to keep me high the whole time.

You make a good point.

And you're obviously suffering
from posttraumatic stress.

Here, let me help you.

There. Happy? I feel
better already.

We still need to work
on your manners.

Sorry to ruin the whole day-spa
vibe you've got going on here...

but I don't need your help.

Alex, you don't have a choice.

Okay. So, what is this place?

Headquarters for the Red
Circle Triad in New York.

Nothing much going on now. At night,
it turns into a happening spot.

Lady Gaga was there last Friday.

That's great. Where's the boss?

Name is Chen Lo, according
to the intel group.

He runs the business from a back
room in the northeast corner.

Give me a second.

Okay. I got eyes inside.

See for yourself. The guy
in the suit is Chen Lo.

You catching that? Real-time subtitles.
How cool is that?

Yeah, congratulations.

Looks like Nikita hit
the sweatshop...

but she let the boss get away.

Let him get away?
That's not in her DNA.

Exactly. Run a scan,
see if you can snag...

any wideband RF transmissions.
- Signal coming from that room.

She put a tracker on a sweatshop boss
so she could follow him to Chen Lo.

Crafty.

She have to be
nearby to track it?

No. Military-grade transmitter. She
could be anywhere in the city.

Man, Nikki's all hardcore
about this, huh?

Kind of crazy how she's going back
to her greatest hits. No pun.

Just have the team on
standby, all right?

Nikita, I'm gonna head out
to the farmers' market.

Who's that? Who's
that over there?

- I wanna get stuff for dinner. You good?
- Yes, we are, Mama. Yes, we are.

- We're very, very good.
- I thought so.

I'll be back.

- Bye. Bye.
- Bye.

We'll be here.

Bye, Mama. Bye, Mama.

Nikita.

Nikita, take the
baby for a walk.

Of course my husband can't come.

- He just had to work on Sunday.
- I'm trying to protect an entire nation.

It's gorgeous out. I think I'm
gonna take her for a walk.

Good idea. Don't want the hubby
home alone with the nanny.

All right, you just may
have to pay for that.

Just make sure to take one of
the guys with you, Nikita.

That's good. Keep walking.

- Give me that baby.
- What do you want with the baby?

Give me the baby now.

- I'm not giving her to you. Or to him.
- We're not gonna hurt her, Nikita.

This is Roan. Stand by
for abort and clean.

Do not get ahead of
yourself, hear me?

Control your asset, or I will.

Sophie will be returned to her mother.
We have orders to not hurt them.

So Victor Han is the target?

Why does he have to die?

If you don't do this,
Division will call a clean.

They clean everything and everyone,
including you and that child...

and there's not a damn thing I
can do about it. You got that?

You don't have a choice.
Give me the child.

Put the device in the
crib, arm it and leave.

Hey, hey. Hey. She asleep?

Out like a light.

I'm gonna go enjoy
some more of the day.

Go for it. Nikita...

thank you.

I don't know what
we'd do without you.

Clear.

Alex, where are you?

No! No!

Do you like it? It's part
of our spring collection.

Get this off of me.

It's not up to me.
It's up to you.

Jacket has an electronic lock,
which is synchronized...

with the heart-rate monitor.

Bring your pulse down to
51 beats per minute...

the lock will release.

You panicked during a
simple exercise, Alex.

Division won't tolerate that kind
of physical liability in a recruit.

You have to prove you
can pass this test...

or it may be your last.

I got nothing. Birkhoff?

Anything?

No. But I like this channel.

Keep your eyes on the models. You
know how she likes to dress up.

Oh, you're looking good tonight.

One more snap!

Guys, let's help her out.

Smile.

Victor. - Nikita.

I should have known.

Nikita.

When they told me some bitch
burned my factory I wasn't sure.

All these years, I
thought I killed you.

You were Triad.

Well, like they say:

No, you couldn't have pulled
this off on your own...

and Homeland wouldn't
have stood for it.

You made a deal with Percy.

- That's why we faked your death.
- Percy.

He's gonna get an earful
from me after today.

How could you? You had a wife...

and a daughter.

The insurance took
care of them, Nikita.

Everyone came out a winner.

Except you. In a matter of seconds,
you're gonna be surrounded.

What do you think you're doing?

I hate chatting online.
Let's do this face to face.

It's bulletproof.

You gonna take down the Triads now?
Is that it?

It was just gonna be
their man in New York.

- Then I find out Victor Han is their boss.
- What?

You don't know.

Victor Han is alive, Michael.

Of course you don't know.
You never asked.

You probably don't even
know why he was a target.

He had to be dirty.

Oh, he was. He was a double
agent for the Triads...

who got a big fat promotion thanks
to Percy's bait-and-switch.

Not for long.

I need a location on
Victor Han in Hong Kong.

Who have you been talking to?

No, let me guess.

Nikita. What'd she say?

"How could Percy do
such a thing, Michael?

Make a deal with a criminal?"

You wanna know how?

I assume you had your reasons.

And you knew never to ask.

Always loved that about you.

Did the right thing, Michael.

The government came to me
with a serious situation.

Triad agent had worked his way so
high into Homeland Security...

he was attending NSC
briefings at the West Wing.

Yeah. Maybe you don't recall, but
this is two years after 9/11.

Homeland was brand-new.

Do you have any idea what would
happen if that had gone public?

It would destroy their agency.

The government came to us with
a problem and we solved it.

Making him into a
martyr was my idea.

Yeah, but to keep him alive?
Why?

Wouldn't want any
blowback from the Triads.

Of course, you didn't take
any money from them, either.

You better get going.

I'll text you Han's address.

Nikita's probably on her way
to Hong Kong as we speak.

Flight 310 from Hong Kong
to Beijing now boarding.

Madam, don't you think you
should have declared this...

before returning to Hong Kong?

Yeah, I was...

I was going to. I'm sorry.

Is this the part
where you tie me up?

Listen, I will pay the fine. It's fine.
It's totally fine.

I don't wanna go back in that line out
there because it's a little long and...

Isn't there a side door or
something I could go through?

- Certainly.
- Well, there you go.

Something wrong?

No, I just didn't
know we had company.

Fifty-one beats per minute,
then you'll be free.

Face the flame.

Breathe in through the nose,
exhale through the mouth.

Without blowing it out.

Tell me about your pain, Alex.
It's the only way to let it go.

Maybe I like my pain.

There was a girl who used
to say the same thing.

Turned out to be
one of our best.

But she didn't become great
until she set herself free...

by confronting her
deepest, deepest fears.

I was 13.

I was with my parents.

We were driving.

There was an accident and
we fell into the river.

We were sinking.

And there was so much...

water.

My papa lost control.

I tried to scream,
but I couldn't.

Papa!

My parents died in
that car accident.

And you people put
me under that car.

I'm proud of you, Alex.

You really do remind
me of Nikita.

You flew all the way out here for me.
That is just simply stupid.

I just had to see you again.

I spoke with Percy.

It's funny, he didn't
wanna get into it.

- Percy's not really a talker.
- That's okay, I worked it out.

So you went and grew a
conscience, Nikita.

Now you're a thorn in Percy's side
because you think you can, what...

make a difference in the world?

You, in prison, being man-raped?
That'd be different.

You're gonna tell me
who knows about this.

- Did you tell Lisa and Sophie?
- You remember their names.

Don't get sanctimonious.

You know all about
living a lie, Nikita.

Victor Han was a name I created
to infiltrate Homeland.

As for the wife and kid,
they were just my cover.

- They were your family.
- I have a family. Here.

A wife and two children. And
I wanna keep it that way.

I'm not really a talker either.

That's okay.

My boys got a few power tools to
help bring you out of your shell.

You think you're gonna break me?

Nobody likes a crusader, Nikita.

I tried it for a few
months, I got blown up.

I can't believe I ever
thought you were cute.

I can't believe I never
had my way with you.

You couldn't handle me.

Not then. Not now.

Best thing about the slave business
is I can handle whatever I want.

Honestly, I think
we would clash.

Sort of like lipstick
and peanut oil.

Please. Please.
- Shut up, before I change my mind.

Victor Han, former high-ranking official
in the Department of Homeland Security...

thought to be dead, found on the
steps of the police department...

bound and gagged, apparently left
there by an unknown crusader.

No, it's not going to be a problem.
It's going to be an opportunity.

For who? For you.

Yeah. No. Okay.

Easy. Easy.

Look, we both agree
Victor was sloppy.

But you, you could take over
the operation, couldn't you?

No, you're right. No commission.

For the time being.

When they returned her to me...

the people you used to work
for, they threatened me.

Told me not to talk.

Who knew her own
father was behind it.

He'll pay for what he did.

I decided I'm not
gonna tell her.

As far as I'm concerned,
Victor died that day.

You said you didn't
want forgiveness...

but you deserve it, Nikita.

At least from me.

Thank you.

The people who made you do
this, can you ever stop them?

It's gonna take some time.

- What else you got?
- Pulse never broke 60.

Damn, girl. What did
Amanda do to you?

I don't know, we just talked.

Guess it worked.

Yeah, well, wait till
I get under there.

- Thanks for pulling me out the first time.
- You would've worked it out eventually.

I mean it, Thom.

So didn't you say two out
of three with the bo staff?

I did, didn't I?

You wanna get your ass
kicked by a girl?

Girls get no mercy. That's
the first rule of kobudo.

Yeah? What's the second?

- So how did you do it?
- I'm not done.

- What do you mean?
- She's hiding something.

Sorry I missed you earlier.
Got caught up.

How'd it go on your end?

You're supposed to
be in Logistics.

Just tell me. Straight.

Why kill an innocent man, one that
works for our own government?

We don't ask questions.

You'd follow him over a cliff,
wouldn't you? Just like that.

Percy gave you a gift.

He gave you a second chance.

He can have it back.

You don't have a choice.

What about you, Michael?
Do you have a choice?

- Grow up.
- Why are you so loyal to Percy?

Why?

Because I owe him my life.

Michael?
