In the mid-season finale, Birkhoff discovered that Sonya was Amanda’s mole inside Division. Amanda re-activated Sonya’s kill chip shortly after Percy’s death and put a second mole in place to make sure Sonya cooperated. Birkhoff promised to help her escape Amanda’s clutches.

According to the synopsis, this episode will feature Birkhoff telling Nikita about these developments. In response, “Nikita, Michael and Ryan devise a plan to use Sonya to ferret out Amanda’s hiding place,” while, “Birkhoff sets a trap for the second mole.”

While this is going on, “Michael confronts Alex about her drug use,” which began anew after she was shot and Sean left her earlier this season. However, “she begs him not to tell Nikita,” as Nikita was the one to help her get clean in the first place.

Judging from the images above, Nikita will indeed manage to draw Amanda out of hiding, resulting in an explosive confrontation that ends with Michael getting hurt. This should come as no surprise, as Amanda has sworn to gain revenge on Nikita by targeting her loved ones.

“Intersection” airs Friday, January 18 at 8 p.m. ET.
