Synopsis:

Division discovers one of their rogue agents, Markov (guest star Jonathan Goad), who has been undercover for six years, has been elected President of Uzbekistan and is planning to kill the President of the United States (guest star Michelle Nolden). Ryan (Noah Bean) confesses to the team that Division is on thin ice with the President and she has threatened to wipe them out if the public finds out about the secret agency and rogue agents. Nikita (Maggie Q) and Michael (Shane West) are furious that Ryan kept this a secret from them and must figure out how to save the President's life without alerting her of the danger. Meanwhile, after Alex (Lyndsy Fonseca) and Owen (Devon Sawa) are caught in an explosion, they investigate and believe an insider set it up. Aaron Stanford also stars. Ken Fink directed the episode written by Albert Kim (#305).

Finally had the time to watch this episode last night.

Sucks that there was no Amanda. But the revelation that Division was one fuckup away from being wiped out by Mass execution from the Government was really interesting. Ryan has a huge burden on his shoulders with his life and others in danger whenever Nikita, Alex and Michael go on Ops together. Talk about pressure.

I'd like to see that storyline brought back later this season. I think that could potentially be a really compelling way to end the season.

The Fake Uzbekistan President/Division Agent infiltrating the White House was a really intense sequence.
