(# 82) Nikita and Michael go to Dingman's Hollow, Tennessee to recover a downed satellite containing classified data, only to discover that the entire town is a sleeper base for a terrorist group called Black Storm.
lfnforever briefing best dialogue CORMAN: "Everything I could find suggested that the satellite was crashed on purpose." MADELINE: "Do you know by whom?" C: "I was working on that when you called me. But everything that I could see leads back to Oversight or Center." OPERATIONS: "Can you think of a reason why Oversight would intentionally crash a satellite containing valuable data right into the heart of a terrorist base?" C: "I don't know. Not unless…" M: "Go on." C: "Well, if the data was useless. Providing the enemy with useless intel would distract them for years" M: "You're very astute" C: "Thank you. But Michael and Nikita… (pause) were sent in to make it look convincing. To make every effort to retrieve the data. But Michael won't fail." M: "You've put the pieces together quite well." C: "And if Michael dies trying…will make it look all the more convincing." O: "Very good Mr. Corman." M: (to operatives) "Take him to containment."	Written by Lawrence Hertzog Directed by Joseph L.
