Season 1 Epiosde 9 One Way

Episode Title: One Way

Episode Description:

Nikita (Maggie Q) and Michael (Shane West) temporarily team-up to kill a terrorist who murdered Michael's family many years ago. When Percy (Xander Berkeley) learns this information, he sends Division agents to kill Nikita, who ultimately compromises the mission, leading to Michael's capture by the terrorist group. Alex (Lyndsy Fonseca) is caught going through medical files inside Division so she creates a lie that involves Jaden (Tiffany Hines) and almost blows her cover. Melinda Clarke, Aaron Stanford and Ashton Holmes also star. Ken Fink directed the episode written by Albert Kim.

Season 1 Episode 8, Phoenix Preview Clip #2

This is the full preview for Episode 8. The previous clip that was posted just featured Alex and Thom scene.

We all wear masks. Sometimes we wear them so much we forget who we really are. And sometimes if we're lucky someone comes along and shows us who we really want to be.

Season 1 Episode 8, Phoenix Episode Description

This is the episode description of "Phoenix" from CW:

Division sends Thom (Ashton Holmes) to eliminate Anna (guest star Rayisa Kondracki, "The Bridge"), a woman who was having a secret affair with a U.S. Senator (guest star Spencer Garrett, "Leverage"). Division agrees to cover up any trace of the affair as long as the Senator agrees to help pass a bill that will continue to fund the agency. Nikita (Maggie Q), with Alex's (Lyndsy Fonseca) help, attempts to reach out to Anna's parents, but the conversation doesn't go as she expected. Shane West, Xander Berkeley, Melinda Clarke, Aaron Stanford and Tiffany Hines also star. David Barrett directed the episode written by James Barnes.

Hmm, seems like we will see Jaden on Episode 8 as opposed to Tiffany Hines' tweet that says she will be back on Episode 9.

@izfab Where has Jaden been?<- no worries! Jadens back in 109! I took off a few epi's 2travel back 2LA to shoot my role of Michelle on Bones

But nonetheless, happy to see Jaden on the upcoming episode.

Missing Jaden on Episode 7

We missed Jaden last episode though we had a brilliant guest star with Bug Hall as Robbie. For all those asking, Jaden will be back on Episode 9, as posted on her Twitter. Boo! We will still be missing her on the upcoming episode.

Season 1 Episode 8, Phoenix Preview Clip

Check out the preview to next week's episode of Nikita:

It's Alex and Thom kissing!! OMG! Can't wait!

Bug Hall is Another Tattooed Nikita Cast

As seen on Season 1 Episode 7, Bug Hall or Robbie has a tattoo on his chest. Just like Lyndsey Fonseca and Maggie Q.

I wonder if its real though. Lyndsey and Maggie Q have said that they have real tattoos and are allowed not to have it covered by makeup.

Season 1 Episode 7, The Recruit

You can read the episode recap of TV.com for Episode 7 of the action-packed show Nikita here.

Don't read if you haven't seen the episode yet. Full of spoilers :)

Season 1 Episode 11

I am on Twitter-mode (see previous post) and read this tweet of Lyndsey last Tuesday:

Wow! Is all I can say after reading episode 11 #Nikita. Best one yet. I'm in shock.

A little more wait for us but for sure it will be worth the wait.

Lyndsy Fonseca on her character Alex & the show

I had the same thought when I was watching Nikita Season 1 Episode 2: it had shades of the TV show "Dollhouse". I miss watching that show!!! And I digress :)

There are shades of "Dollhouse" going on here, not necessarily because she's being made to order for this particular case, but because of the shadowy agency that has ambiguous motives and that pervading sense of foreboding.

What Lyndsy Fonseca has to say about her character Alex:

"I think Alex has to play a part and play a game of getting along to a certain extent because she's here for a job"

On being girly and dressing up:

"It's kind of fun to be all girly and put on a pretty dress with heels and get made up, but then I'm like, 'Okay, I'm ready for my recruit-wear now.'"

About the show:

"They've been really amazing with creating flashbacks that tell a lot of the history of Alex and Nikita and how they came to meet"

Maggie Q's Stand on Animals and Diversity

In an interview with, "Nikita" star Maggie Q has this to say about animals and being vegetarian:

"I've never felt better in my life, ever. In terms of consciousness, what benefits our body and benefits animal welfare also benefits the planet. It's all connected," said Maggie Q, who's active with animal protection groups.

Hmmm. And I think they somehow translated that into the show when Nikita offered Owen veggie shakes. And to quote "I make a mean veggie shake." (Season 1, Episode 6)

And this is what she had to say about diversity:

She's pleased that aspiring Asian-American performers can point to her and say, "'When I get there, it’s going to be easier for me."'
