Tropes
- The Chessmaster: Percy has been several steps ahead of Michael and Nikita the whole time, having known that Michael switched sides pretty much immediately.
- Cliffhanger: Alex shoots Nikita point blank.
- Internal Reveal: Alex learns that Nikita killed her father, which the viewer has known for a while.
- You Killed My Father: Alex shoots Nikita, presumably because she's just learned that Nikita was the one to kill her father.
