On a mission Alex runs into Irina, one of the girls she met while she was brought over to the US to be a sex slave. When she tries to help her, she gets kidnapped by their old pimp, who figured out that she is indeed Alexandra Udinova, the supposedly dead heiress of a big fortune in the Ukraine. He pumps her full of drugs and tries to get her to confess.
Michael and Nikita reluctantly team up to save Alex, though Nikita tells Michael that she is actually after the MacGuffin Alex stole on the mission. They find Alex, who has gotten free and killed the pimp.
Michael brings a still drugged up Alex back to Division, where Amanda decides it's time to ask Alex some pointed questions.
Tropes
- Back-to-Back Badasses: Michael and Nikita briefly when trying to find Alex. Despite being surprised to see each other, and being enemies to boot, they still work together incredibly well.
- Cold Blooded Murder: Alex kills her former pimp, despite him being on the ground and not in any shape to fight her. However, she is drugged out of her brain, and collapses soon afterward, so it's questionable as to how clearly she was thinking.
- Enemy Mine: Michael is still pissed at Nikita for stopping his attempt on Kasim in One Way, but he still decides to work together with her to save Alex.
- Human Trafficking: Both Alex and Irina were victims of it.
- MacGuffin: Alex mission is to steal some new phone.
- Riches to Rags: Alex grew up rich, and lost it all when her parents were murdered.
- Sex Slave: Alex was this in the past, and it's implied that Irina still is.
