* In "343 Walnut Lane," it was revealed that, when Niki was just an ornery recruit, Percy had a plan where he would reveal her father as being a former CIA agent. The idea was to make her an enthusiastic agent. The other option, the standard one, would have simply been to cancel her. Ad we still don't know who her father is, since her supposed father was a fake and his name was purposefully left out of her dossier. If it didn't matter, they would just have said that he was dead, same as with the mother. So Nikita's father probably is or will be an important character. Why not Percy, same as before?

to:

* In "Pandora", the Oversight members we meet quite clearly don't like Percy and are only tolerating him because he's blackmailing him with the Black Boxes. At the end of the episode [[spoiler: they capture Alex and offer her a chance to avenge her father's death if she agrees to work for them]], which will probably be key to a move against Percy. And furthermore, [[spoiler: Amanda]] is revealed to be working for them, which means they would be more than capable of taking Percy down if and when the boxes are eliminated.




to:

* In "Pandora", [[spoiler: not only does Amanda help Alex escape from Division, she is revealed to be an agent - or possibly a member - of Oversight, and they're plotting against Percy]]. So I'd say this theory is panning out, even if the details aren't.

Out of all the named high ranking members of Division, she seems the most likely. Birkhoff is too scared of Percy to try anything (and really isn't in a position to take over Division anyway); what little we've seen of Roan suggests he's too loyal; and while Michael is opposed to Percy's methods, he's still loyal to the cause (plus, the whole "IOweYouMyLife" thing). Amanda, meanwhile, seems like just the sort of ManipulativeBitch who would take advantage of Percy's weakening position (i.e. the destruction of his black boxes) for her own gain. Perhaps, when it comes down to the final box, she'll try and engineer an EnemyMine situation with Nikita in order to take Percy down, while at the same time setting herself up to be chosen by Oversight as his replacement. We could then see which one of the three of them manages to OutGambit the other two.

to:

** In a way, but Nikita isn't so much after Percy than trying to stop what Division does, Oversight killing Percy would allow the introduction of some of it's own members (perhaps specially trained assassins, who are trained from birth rather than from their teens, purely as a contingency plan). Additionally it could be used as further motivation for Nikita, as it would show the ruthlessness of Oversight. Furthermore she doesn't actually SEEM to be aware that they exist as a functional group rather it seems that she considers them to be some non-coordinated individuals in the government. Having an oversight assassin that has not really had any experiences outside of training and missions would be an interesting character if written well and could even be used as a 'dark side' version of Nathan, while simultaneously slowly developing ideas about morality. Besides Michael would enjoy killing Percy more due to his callous disregard for the recruits, perhaps someone from Oversight could manipulate him into killing Percy.

* Maybe she is the one who ordered Division to kill her family? After all, we don't know who made the order and Udinov's enemies is too vague. It's not Babylonian times. You don't become the CEO of a billion-dollar multi-national company because you killed the founder. You have to be someone in a legitimate position to step in. In other words, you need to be somebody who was not only known by Udinov, but pretty damn close to him. His second-in-command, maybe.... Or his wife.

[[WMG: Oversight will kill Percy]]
Given that he's blackmailing them with his black boxes. Once all of the black boxes are destroyed by Nikita they'll want him removed, along with agents loyal to him, the only named agent that is really likely to be loyal to Percy is Roan (Michael hates Percy, Birkhoff hates division (except the shiny tech, and being allowed to breath), Amanda could probably fool anyone assessing her (that and we have no idea about her past)). Furthermore it is likely oversight doesn't care about some of Divisions mercenary ops (as long as they don't interfere with oversights own goals) as it reduces the cost to them, however with another person in charge and not taking a (presumably) large portion of the commission fewer mercenary ops would be needed to cover Divisions costs.

Alex's flashback in "Free" supports this.

[[WMG: Alex's father was a renegade Gogol/Division agent attempting to take them down.]]
It fits with the "undercover agent falls in love with a civilian; Tragedy Ensues" recurring theme that the new series has going. And to make it to middle age, he must have been really good at hiding; at least as good as Nikita herself, if not better. He possibly even set things up so a renegade Division agent could take in Alex and train her (I'm a little fuzzy on the chronology at the moment so I forget if Alex's parents died three or more years ago).
