Hmm, those hats must have some sort of infrastructure to get them to maintain their shape, right?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Kristen, how far back do I have to in order to get the Birkhoff quotes? I caught Aliens the other night, and although I didn't know what song he quoted just afterwards, I detected a LotR quote...
Inexplicably or absolutely not, that makes him one of the most "normal" sounding guys on TV. I mean, who doesn't enjoy a good quote? ALL THE TIME???

Right? I was just thinking that last week, that he talks like most people I know with the liberal sprinklings of quotes and references, but that is probably not what many people would think of as naturalistic dialog. But it is!
As to this week, whoa. I did not see that trap coming. Pins and needles for what happens next, I tell you what.

That was a great finale, guys! Second saddest one this week!--the bit from Birkhoff starting firing to Nikita doing her shit with the pipe--those buttons have been installed for a long time, and they were precisely hit.
And nice last minute reveals.

That was superb.

Well put. So rewarding to watch.
Also loved the shots of the destruction of Division - beautiful and satisfying and sad.
I really thought they had won Nikita over with that "you have more than one [loved one]" talk, seeing the ring was a real shock. Not to mention the President.
I am so primed for next season.

I totally did not expect the ring. I knew there was something more to happen with the Pres, but that??? I guess if you can pull that off masking the autopsy should be relatively simple.

Yeah, at this point I don't really need the explanation how, I'm sure Amanda and the Shop can make sure the "right" facts get recorded and believed. Kinda want to rewatch the episodes since the G20 (inclusive) to see if I can get a better handle on what went down and when.
All the dialog about how everyone but Michael had already been resurrected was great stuff.

Yeah, "Welcome to Division" was great.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
Nikita: Everything was so spot on for the finale. What everyone else said about the dialogue. It was definitely the most edge of your seat finale for me so far this season. I kept checking the time to see how much more shit could go down until it was done. I didn't see the twist with the president coming at all, but I did expect Nikita to run. She never gives up on an argument that easily unless she is going to do what she wants anyway. And, once again, I was completely convinced that Birkoff was never going to make it out alive. I can't wait for next season!
