According to the synopsis, Nikita season 3, episode 21 will focus on the personal aftermath of Division’s dismantling, with the remnants of Team Nikita “barely surviving harrowing recent events.” In this vein, “Michael questions his fiancée’s commitment to a life beyond Division’s web of deceit, double-crosses and murder.” After all, “[b]efore becoming engaged, Nikita said, ‘There’s always gonna be another mission,'” and Michael is “not the only one with doubts.”

Despite personal reservations, however, “the remaining threat of Amanda looms large over the team, particularly since she’s now allied herself with mysterious new partners that furnish her with a terrifying new weapon.”

We’re guessing that these new partners may be the The Shop — the same group that gave Michael his new hand in exchange for the retrieval of a piece of technology. An alliance between Amanda and this mysterious group could spell major trouble for the run-down team, considering The Shop’s apparent reach and technological capabilities.

In the images above, we see numerous shots of a confrontation between Amanda and Nikita. We know that when Amanda held Nikita captive, she performed some sort of conditioning procedure on Nikita as she did with Alex. However, we don’t know what she did, as Amanda simply told Nikita that she used their time together “wisely.” We’ll be curious to see if that comes into play when the two women come face-to-face once again.

Meanwhile in the episode, “Alex considers an intriguing offer from the Nobel Prize winner she’s defending.” With Alex’s mindset still questionable after Amanda’s conditioning and Sean’s death, it will be interesting to see what kind of offer this may turn out to be.

Nikita season 3, episode 21 “Invisible Hand” airs Friday, May 10 at 8:00 p.m. ET.
