Nikita has no history that this "company" can find before she was 18 years old. Her school records are fake. She is a ward of Madeline's. Where did she come from? Did she just appear? I don't think so. There is a ton we don't know about Nikita.
And while they were away in the woods they were being watched, and mot just by Rene's men. So who else was watching them? Would they hurt Michael or Nikita? Who are these people and why?
And Michael just got a TV, would Rene make a television special to force Michael into remembering. And who has that kind of power to make a TV show and get it on the air? Who is Rene and how can he do stuff like that?
And there is our old friend Walter!!!! Who is he to Michael and why would Michael call Walter first?
