Scene 1: Section One, Private Dining Room. Operations and Madeline
are having breakfast together.
Operations: Your reports are very thorough.
Madeline: What's your decision?
Operations: I've got two men and one job. Head Strategist is a significant
promotion
Madeline: Michael's more qualified.
Operations: In terms of time served yes. But even looking at your report,
Zalman might be better suited for it.
Madeline: (pauses) I wouldn't underestimate Michael's reaction to this.
Operations: (smirks) Michael's a team player.
Madeline: Maybe, but he wants this post, and he knows he deserves it. He
may not show it, but he will be resentful.
Operations: (pauses, presses a button) Have Michael come to my office.
Female op: Right away, sir.
Operations: Thank you for your input. (Operations smiles, then Madeline
does the same)
Scene 2: Section One, Operations Loft. Next we see Michael walking
into the loft and standing in front of Operations
Operations: I hear you made some progress on the Vincent Tomas situation.
Michael: Yes, I believe we located the nucleus of his operation. I've gone
over the layout with Birkoff.
(Operations turns from him, staring out of his tower)
Operations: Michael, I know you expected the promotion to head
strategist (showing Michael behind him listening) And over the years I
indicated that the job might one day be yours (facing Michael) but you're
a field man, the best I have. The head strategist's position (close up of
Michael's face looking at Operations) I believe it would be a mistake, for
both of us (camera still on Michael)
Michael: Is that all? (no expression on his face, but his tone was
different, he sounded upset)
Operations: This isn't personal, Michael. (both share looks)
Michael: Of course. (his voice was very emotional. Michael leaves,
Operations standing, watches him leave. Operations with a smirk on
his face)
Scene 3: Nikita's apartment (great scene here!!!!) We see someone
walking along in Nikita's place, Nikita is asleep in her bed, she hears
something. When she faces the person with her gun, it's Michael. As
Nikita turns and we see Michael walking up beside Nikita's bed
Nikita: Michael (great look of Michael looking at her, but you could see
he had alot on his mind, Nikita staring at him concerned) What's wrong?
Michael: (staring at her, turning his head, emotional) We're getting out!
(Nikita staring at him, shocked)
Nikita: How, that's impossible?
Michael: (staring, emotional) I'll explain, get dressed (Michael standing
over her bed, he leaves her to get dressed. Nikita gets out to get dressed,
but is distracted, she's staring straight ahead shocked)
Scene 4: Section One, War Room. Operations is briefing Michael, Walter
and other Operations about the mission
Operations: Over the last six months, there has been a sharp increase in Red
Cell's activities, We believe that Vincent Tomas has taken the helm in
Europe and is responsible for the escalation. (we see Vincent on a screen)
He's operating as he did in Asia using a well concealed and mobile cell that
communicates with a number of satellite substations (shows Michael's face,
no emotion) Tactically, we have to strike all locations simultaneously to
keep one from informing the other. Zalman, (shows him looking) our new
Head Strategist will coordinate the strike from inside Section (Michael
staring at Operations) Michael will lead the cell team in the field. Any
further questions will be directed to Zalman (Zalman slys over
Michael's way with a smirk on his face as Operations. Michael gets up
out of the chair, buttoning his jacket with one hand, he looks mad.
Staring away as he leaves, just then Zalman calls out to him, Michael
looks down, and turns facing Michael)
Zalman: (smugly) I just wanted you to know, I studied all your files and I
have nothing but the respect for the work you've done here. I'm really
looking forward as having you as my point man. (sort of sincere look on
Zalman's face. Michael, no expression, just staring)
Michael: My team will be ready.
Zalman: Oh, I know that. (Michael no emotion stares at him then leaves,
Zalman watching him leave smirking)
Scene 5: Section One, Munitions. Walter is there talking to Nikita.
Walter: (angry) If you ask me, the whole thing stinks. Everyone around
here respects Michael, he's a leader. I don't know what Zalman does besides
fit in. (Nikita staring away, listening)
Nikita: He's not a threat.
Walter: Michael say anything to you?
Nikita: (packing for the mission) You know Michael, it's the job, you do it.
Walter: Well, you're pretty much ready here, I'm going to log these things
out. (Walter turns away from Nikita, pressing a button, Nikita staring at
him, she looks away, sees Michael approaching, passing Nikita, Walter
sees him, and calls out to him)
Walter: Hey Michael, hey hold on (Michael keeps walking, Walter chasing
him) Where are you going, you know I can't let you back here. (obviously
a distraction, Nikita, watches them, does over where Walter was logging
in the weapons. Nikita is using, she presses something and takes out what
looks to be a cell phone) Well....... well I can help you if you just tell me
what you want.
(camera now shows Walter and Michael)
Michael: I need a note from Zalman, is that it?
Walter: No......no.......nobody is with Operations on this. But it didn't
happen for you. It doesn't change the rules. (Nikita rushing back to
where she was before Walter left to talk to Michael. Michael and Walter
walking back. Michael comes over to Nikita.)
Michael: We're going out in a hour (Nikita slightly looks up at him as he
leaves)
Walter: (talking to Nikita as he watches Michael leaving) You're going to
have a swell time.
Nikita: We'll be okay (smiling)
Walter: Watch your flank
Nikita: Thanks (smiling)
Walter: Maybe, you better watch his, too. (Nikita slightly smirks, staring
at Walter) What are you looking at, Sugar? (sincere)
Nikita: Just the best part of my day (smiling as she leaves)
Walter: (smiling) keep on talking like that, and I'll forget how old I am.
(Nikita stops, turns looks at Walter smiling, Walter the same. Walter turns,
he goes back to log in the weapons, Nikita leaving, looking at him slightly
sad)
Scene 6: The Mission. Huge truck going along the road, Nikita driving,
Michael is in the passenger's side.)
Nikita: How long will it take them to know we've got the field router?
(Michael presses buttons)
Michael: Once we use it, they'll know.
Nikita: Then they'll come after us?
Nikita: (looking towards Nikita) That's right. Michael are you running away
because you lost a post to Zalman? (Michael is slightly edgy)
Michael: In Section, you either move up or move out.
Nikita: I understand that Michael, I just don't understand why you need me.
Michael: (looking ahead) I don't need you (sincere, he pauses, then looks
passes, then looks at her) I WANT YOU!!!! (Nikita, she has dark glasses
on, Nikita affected by it as he still looks at her.)
Scene 7: Section One, Private Dining Room. Operations sitting down
where he always has breakfast, lunch etc. listening to the mission, we hear
Zalman's voice. Zalman and Birkoff are in Comm.
Zalman: Status
Birkoff: Seven teams deployed. Team one will make target, they will have
two minutes to secure the nucleus station, shut down communications and
acquire Tomas before the satellite teams hit (show Birkoff on screen
talking to Zalman)
Zalman: Michael's team?
Birkoff: They're within the perimeter now.
Scene 8: The Mission. Nikita and Michael approaching in the truck. The
truck stops, operatives in the back get out, as also Michael in front. New
Mission outfit for Michael, brown jacket and pants! Michael and other
Operations take position around the building. As the other operatives
leave, Nikita gets out of the truck. It shows Michael opening the door
of the house, Michael checking the house inside, its empty.
(Back at section monitoring, Birkoff on computer, Zalman beside him
listening to the mission)
Zalman: Status report, do you have Tomas?
Michael: Condition blue, the location is clear.
Zalman: You didn't find anything?
Michael: (showing Zalman) Looks like they pulled out in the last twenty-
four hours. (As other Operations go downstairs to check the basement,
Michael leaves and walks out the door. Nikita is standing by the truck.
Michael stands in the doorway, Nikita runs over towards him, he opens
the door for her.)
Michael: This way (she follows, they leave through another entrance of
the house. Both running, just then Zalman is calling out to him on his
earpiece)
Zalman: (impatient) Michael............Michael status, look is there any
indication whatsoever that they might have had an advanced Warning?
(Nikita staring at Michael)
Michael: Yes they knew.......end of report (Michael presses buttons on the
router, a loud sound they hear back at Section)
Zalman: (feeling his ear) What the hell is going on........Michael: (Birkoff
staring at computer, Operations turns off his screen, he looks pissed, gets
up to leave)
Zalman: Michael!
Birkoff: It's a jamming signal
Zalman: Michael!
Birkoff: I've got to shift op frequencies and try to get comm back (shows
Michael and Nikita)
Michael: (Nikita staring at him) Let's go (both running through the woods)
Birkoff: Try it (pressing buttons)
Zalman: Michael..........Michael?
(shows operatives coming out of the house, they hear Zalman)
Zalman: Can anyone hear me?
Male op: This is team 2....Fredericks
Zalman: Thank God, where the hell is Michael?
Fredericks (op): Ah sir, we don't exactly know.
Zalman: What do you mean, you don't know? (Birkoff listening, concerned)
Frederick: He's missing sir, Nikita too.
Zalman: Both of them?
Fredericks: I've got personnel on teams going over the area (Zalman pissed,
taking off earpiece, looking at Birkoff)
Zalman: How in the hell did this happen?
Birkoff: (shocked) Somehow they got their hands on a section field router,
it's programmed with all of Section's codes and frequencies (Zalman's
shocked, he leaves. Zalman goes to Walter's area, calling out to him)
Zalman: Walter!
Walter: (turns and looks) Yeah?
Zalman: Get out here! A field router!
Walter: What about it?
Zalman: Check your inventory! (Walter confused, checks. Zalman looks
pissed, looks at Walter. Walter sees one missing)
Walter: You're right, one is missing. Someone must have taken it.
Zalman: Just so that you fully understand how I work here. I don't
tolerate mistakes (Walter staring)
Walter: Then don't make one bigger then you already have.
(Cathy in: Go Walter!)
(we hear Operations voice calling out to him)
Operations: Zalman..........my office now!
Zalman: I'm on my way sir. (angry) To be continued, Walter.
Scene 9: Section One, Operations Loft. Operations is waiting for Zalman
up in his office, Zalman pauses, then comes in.
Operations: You are aware, as Head Strategist, that any mission failure is
your responsibility.
Zalman: I'm aware of that, yes.
Operations: You're also aware that any failure on your part is my
responsibility.
Zalman: Sir......I (Operations cuts him off)
Operations: Listen to me, I put you in charge of this mission.
Zalman: I won't let you down.
Operations: You already have, make no mistake about that.
Zalman: (sincere) I will find out what happened
Operations: Oh, I'll tell you what happened. (walking over to Zalman)
Michael left because I passed him over for you and he took Nikita with him.
You should have anticipated that variable. (Zalman looks scared)
Zalman: We'll find them.
Operations: Not standing in here, you won't. (Operations walking away,
Zalman pauses, then leaves)
Scene 10: Country road. We see a old truck travelling along the road, it
stops, we see Michael and Nikita get out. They hitched a ride from a
stranger. Nikita and Michael begin walking on the dirt road with
backpacks.
Scene 11: Section One, White Room. Operations and Madeline are
walking along in Section, they go through this door. Walter is strapped
to a chair. Zalman is pressing a button, which is shocking poor Walter.
The device on his head, Walter is in pain, Zalman is smiling, Walter is
sweating non-stop, in pain
Zalman: You gave him the field router....why?
Walter: (gasping and in pain) I gave them nothing.
Zalman: You answer me Walter. (walking around the room, as we see
Operations and Madeline through a glass looking in) Or we can start this
procedure right from the top.
Walter: I did answer you (making fun of the way Zalman talks as he
responded Zalman looks pissed, he zapps him again. Two red lights on
the device on Walter's head comes on, Walter is in pain. Madeline and
Operations staring, Madeline who looks displeased at what she sees, looks
at Operations)
Madeline: How far are you going to let Zalman take this?
(we hear Zalman's voice as it shows Madeline and Operations)
Zalman: You see, I expect being involved with them that you know where
they are too.
Walter: You can go straight to........(Zalman cuts him off by zapping him
again, Walter's eyes roll, total pain. Just then we see and hear Operations
telling Zalman to stop)
Operations: Zalman, that's enough, turn it down.
Zalman: Sir, I will get him to talk.
Operations: Walter, did you do it.
Walter: (shaking his head) No.
Operations (to Zalman): It's over, you heard him.
Zalman: (confused) Sir?
Operations: (strongly) Get him out of there.
(Zalman presses a button, that turns the device off, Walter gives him a
look, breathes a sigh of relief)
Scene 12: Farmhouse. We see Nikita and Michael walking up to it.
Michael opens a shutter on a window, looking at Nikita, he opens the door,
Michael goes in, holds the door open for her, staring at her, Nikita looking
around smiling.
Nikita: How did you find this place?
Michael: I saw it when we were doing aerial reconnaissance, I noticed it
because it was over 50 km from the population zone. (Michael lays the
field router in a box)
Nikita: Who owns it?
Michael: I do. (starting a fire)
Nikita: (surprised) Really?
Michael: And I bought the land around it 100 acres.
Nikita: (walking around) I like it. (opening a door, looks in. We see a truck,
she closes the door)
Nikita: Oh it must be beautiful here in the summer.
(Michael putting wood in the fireplace, looking at Nikita)
Nikita: (finds some records) These look like they've been around
(she puts one on, its a french song, she sits down watching Michael
prepare something to eat)
Nikita: I didn't realize you had such talent in the kitchen, Michael.
Michael: (sincere) There's still alot of things that you don't know about
me (looking at her) Maybe it's time you learned. (Nikita staring, looks
pleased. Right after we see the fire burning, Nikita lying down, she looks
and sees Michael coming in with wood. And you know it, their song is
playing!!!!)
Nikita: How long do you think we'll stay here?
Michael: Not long enough!
(OH MY!!!! Michael sits on the opposite end of the couch, Nikita gets up
and turns and lays back, her head resting by Michael's leg, he's looking
down at her)
Nikita: I'm so glad you bought me here. (Michael looks incredible in this
scene!!!!) I wish we could stay.
Michael: (pauses) Let's not think about the future. Let's just enjoy this while
it lasts.
Nikita: (shivering) You know, I couldn't get that window closed today.
Michael: I've got to go into town tomorrow and get some things, I'll pick up
a new latch (looking down at her!!)
Nikita: (hinting!!)So I'll be cold tonight then (Michael throws the blanket
over her. (she smiles)
(you're going to like this scene here!! Michael staring at her, his hand
comes down on her shoulder)
Nikita: (sincere) Thank you. (Michael looking up!)
Scene 13: Section One, Madeline's Office. Operations comes to see
Madeline.
Operations: What's so important?
Madeline: I reviewed the psych files on both Michael and Nikita. I'm not
convinced they're renegade.
Operations: They took the router, that's how they escaped.
Madeline: Maybe this was motivated externally.
Operations: Extortion?
Madeline: Perhaps, but in any case, my instincts tell me that this wasn't a
collaboration. Michael's up to something.
Operations: What are you suggesting?
Madeline: If their actions are being controlled, let's find out who it is before
we walk into a trap.
Operations: (nodding) Interesting, thank you. (Madeline smiling as
Operations leaves, she watches him leave)
Scene 14: Section One, Comm Center. We see Birkoff's computer screen.
Birkoff: Closest I can place them is, they're still in Belgium. yeah, southeast
of Brussels.
Zalman: This is reliable?
Birkoff: It's the best we're going to get.
Scene 15: Section One, Corridor. Next we see Zalman coming down steps
in Section fast. He sees Madeline walking, he stops.
Zalman: Hello Madeline, oh, listen Madeline? (she stops and turns towards
him - he walks over to her) You can assure Operations, I will find Michael
and Nikita.
Madeline: (sincere voice) That's not a good sign.
Zalman: (confused, smirking) Sorry, what's not?
Madeline: Using a third party to mediate communications. It's an indication
of instability. (Madeline leaves, Zalman is speechless. Madeline then goes
to visit Walter who is having his pulse checked by a woman doctor)
Madeline: Hello Walter
Walter: Hmmmmm (nodding)
Madeline: It wouldn't have been my choice to handle matters this way, but
you know I couldn't interfere. (very emotional)
Walter: What is happening to this place? This would never have happened
back then. We all had our jobs, we did them, we were a team, we respected
each other.
Madeline: We didn't change Walter, the world did. (concern)
(Walter slightly smirks, looks away)
Scene 16: Farmhouse. Michael is going up steps with a candle, Nikita
behind him also holding a candle. Oh my god, Michael walking towards
the bed, Michael is on one side, Nikita on the other. The two candles on
different sides of the bed. Nikita sits on the bed, Michael sits on a chair
beside the bed, taking off his shoes. Nikita slys back at him, puts her
head down toward her lap, hands on her head, she looks upset.
Nikita: How is this going to work? (Michael looks up, side on to Nikita,
but not looking at her)
Michael: We can be careful, take things slowly. (Nikita nodding)
Nikita: showing Michael as she says it) There's another option, I mean
(Nikita smiling) we can live the day like its our last (smiling)
(Michael side on then looks at Nikita)
Michael: It very well could be. (Nikita turns around, stares at him) both
showing intense looks, darn, Nikita looks away! lol)
Scene 17: Farmhouse. It's morning, Nikita awakes, stretches and smile.
She reaches for Michael beside her, but he's gone, she looks startled

her gun, looks around, looking out the window, sees a note on the table,
it's from Michael "went to town, be back by noon")
Scene 18: Town. Michael leaving a store, bags in his hand. We see Mentz

Walter are walking to the loading door. Door opens, Michael is being led
in a blue straight jacket! Michael stops as Zalman is there looking cocky.

the router is, Michael.
Zalman: Take him to containment. (Operations take Michael passing
Zalman, Zalman watches. Madeline and Walter staring)
(Zalman walking to Birkoff's station)
Zalman: What about Nikita?
Birkoff: We still haven't found her.
Zalman: Come on, she must be close.
Birkoff: The terrain is difficult, the roads are rough, she could be anywhere.

Birkoff: I'll see if there are any choppers in the area we could call in.
Zalman: I want the entire area covered.
Scene 20: Farmhouse. Nikita is watching a truck approaching. Nikita
gets her gun, she loads the gun, takes the backpacks and hides in a secret
place in the floor. But we see she forgot to take the router as she was
hiding. the operatives are searching the house as Nikita is hiding.

out where they could see it. Nikita sneaks up and gets the router in time,
she goes back down and hides)
Male op: They have the signal blocked off. (They leave, Nikita is glad)
Scene 21: White Room. We see Michael strapped to a chair, Michael
going through the sametorture as Walter. Zalman pressing the button,
shocking Michael.Michael sweating non stop and in pain. Zalman then
drops the devicethat is shocking Michael.
Zalman: Is she really worth all this Michael, or would she do even half as
much for you? (Michael looks pissed, staring at him, Zalman turns away,
shakes his head in disbelief at not being able to break him)
Zalman: You know they briefed me about the two of you, Michael and
Nikita, Nikita and Michael. But having read your file, I must tell you, I'm
surprised. (Michael still looks angry) This far, for what.......hmmmm?
Love......you? I find that very hard to believe. (just then the door opens,
the torture twins come in) Either I severely misread, you, or this is all
about something else. (no emotion on Michael's face) Where is she?
(Michael looks at him, he won't crack! Zalman looks at the torture twins
who are looking at Michael) Make it extremely unpleasant. (Zalman leaves.
Walter at Comm by Birkoff is watching on a screen, he hates to watch)
Walter: I don't need to see this.
Scene 22: Section One, Operations Loft. Birkoff looks up at Operations
walk back and forth his office, Zalman comes to see Operations.
Zalman: Sir? Is there a problem, how's it going. Well you were right, he's
very resistant, Sir. I think one more, Sir, might do it.
Operations: No, I know him, he'll die first.
Zalman: Are you saying I should stop?
Operations: No, I'd like you to try a different approach.
Scene 23: Section One, White Room. Michael still in the chair, looks
tired, looking down, the door opens. Zalman enters smirking, snaps his
fingers at the torture twins.
Zalman: Get out. A very impressive showing Michael, and all this for a
second rate blonde whore. (Michael looks up at him, although tired) I
mean with so many important things in the world worth dying for. Oh that
reminds me, before you do die, there is something you need to take a look
at (smirking), special presentation Michael, a live feed just for you. (Michael
doesn't look at the screen, Zalman standing by a monitor in the room) (oh
my god, its Adam, Michael's son, his hair is longer, he's playing outdoors)
Zalman: You know as far as I thought I've been, I had no idea until an hour
ago, that you had a son. (Michael then looks at the screen. Michael's eyes
incredible here, focusing on the screen. Adam is kicking the soccer ball
outdoors with another boy) Now that is something worth dying for (a close
up of Adam) (no movement by Michael, just staring at Adam, you could
the pain in his face) Something worth living for (Zalman looking looking
at Michael, he pauses the screen, Michael staring at Zalman) I know you
try not to be concerned what other people think. (Zalman smirks) So hate
me, until your dying breath if you must (Michael trying to focus, blinking
his eyes) but you may not want to take that dying breath until you're
absolutely sure that you're son is safe from the likes of me. (Michael looks
at the screen, closes his eyes, his head goes back, Zalman watches smiling)
Game over Michael, where's Nikita? (camera zooms in on Michael's face,
Michael opens his eyes looking at Zalman, Zalman slightly shaking his
head, although smirking) I'm sorry Michael, I can't hear you (strongly)
speak up. (Michael very emotional, his eyes incredible, Michael pausing)

worried, she has the gun in her hand, just then she sees men running
toward the house shooting at the glass. Nikita shoots a couple of
operatives, she's on the floor, a male op stands over her.
Nikita: (confused) How did you find me?
male op: Michael gave you up.
Nikita: (shaking her head smirking) I don't believe that (just then someone
shoots the two Operations, Michael watching Zalman come in)
Nikita: (shocked) Zalman.
Zalman: It's over Nikita, where is the field router?
Nikita: (shocked) You killed your own team!
Zalman: (shaking his head) Not my team, now where is the field router?
Nikita: You're Red Cell.
Zalman: (nodding and smiling) You know what they say, don't give up the
day job. (Zalman stands over Nikita, aiming the gun at her, she looks
frightened)
Zalman: What is it about you people......Michael....you, what is it that
convinces you that all this is worth dying for?
Nikita: It's people like you.
(Zalman nods, leaning down to Nikita)
Zalman: At this very moment, Michael is strapped into a chair, waiting. If I
were to go back empty handed. (Zalman tries to kiss her, she looks away,
he searches her jacket, he finds the router, he helps her up) I suppose, now
that I got this my rising career at Section One would come to an end.
(Nikita looks frightened) You know the amazing thing about this unit is
that it transmits and receives simultaneously. But when I turn this on Nikita,
they'll think they've located you (he leans in and kisses her, he kisses her
neck, she looks frightened) it should take them about an hour to get here
would you say (as he kisses her neck, Nikita is looking ahead, out of
nowhere, see a gun against. Zalman's back, it's Michael, all other
Operations that were shot by Zalman gets up, very much alive)
Zalman: (shocked) It can't be.
Nikita: You think about it long enough, it'll come to you. (slaps him across
the face, Zalman then is taken away, everyone leaves, except for Nikita
and Michael. Michae's eyes very emotional, staring at Nikita, Nikita
looking down, then at him)
Scene 25: Section One, Private Dining Room. Madeline and Operations
are having dinner
Madeline: You could have told me.
Operations: Your knowing wouldn't have given us an advantage.
Madeline: It took me nine hours to figure out, I could have used that time
elsewhere.
Operations: I actually factored in ten hours, as usual, you exceed my
expectations. They were no pressing actions elsewhere, it had no impact.
Madeline: How long has Zalman been arbitrary?
Operations: 14 weeks, Birkoff discovered unusual amounts of black time in
his residence.
Madeline: If you had suspicions, why didn't you take Zalman directly to
interrogation?
Operations: I wanted to, but Oversight felt he had upward potential. They
wanted proof.
(as they both are talking next, we see Michael going in the white room)
Madeline: Have you found where Zalman planted their devices yet?
Operations: Michael is working on that now.

Zalman: Six.
Michael: I need their locations.
Zalman: Yes, of course.
Scene 27: Section One, Munitions. Operations is walking over to Walter.
Operations: Walter. (Walter thinking) You've been debriefed, you know
why these things happened the way they did.
Walter: (nodding) Yes.
Operations: You endured considerable pain on behalf of the Section without
complaint, without incident.
Walter: (laughing) What are you going to do, pin a medal on me?
(Operations smiling)
Operations: You know Walter, when I was a prisoner of war (Walter looks
up) I made friends with one of the guards (Operations smiling) It was war,
we were on opposite sides (Walter nods) but we made friends anyway
(Walter looks at Operations) He gave me this (holds up a white crystal)
it's suppose to help relieve the pain of life (smiling and laughing, emotional)
but I never believed (joking), I didn't throw it away either (rubbing it in
his hands, Walter smiles, Operations hands it to him)
Operations: I want you to have it. (Walter looks at Operations) Take a
month off. (sincere, Operations walks away, Walter shocked, watches him
leave)

Nikita: Well it wasn't as good as the meal you cooked at the cabin.
(Michael staring, Nikita drinking wine)
Michael: (looking at Nikita) I liked it there. (Nikita looking at him nodding
and smiling. Quiet moment, both staring away as the music is louder,
Nikita is staring away as she speaks)
Nikita: (sad) You know it can't be casual between you and me (shakes her
head I can't do that. (She looks up at Michael, then staring down, Michael
is already looking at her, very sincere look)
Michael: (pauses, sincere) I know (Nikita's eyes very emotional as also
Michael's. Both intense looks at each other. Michael holds up his glass to
her, she does the same, very emotional. Michael drinks staring at her,
Nikita still holding the glass out, she lays her glass down!)
