Season 1

During adolescence, Nikita was plucked from death row by a clandestine U.S. agency known as Division, which trained her as a spy and assassin. She was ultimately betrayed by the very people she trusted. After three years in hiding, Nikita seeks vengeance, sending a clear message to her former boss Percy and to her former colleagues Michael and Birkhoff that she will stop at nothing to expose and dismantle their covert operation. Division continues to recruit and train new youths, including Jaden and Thom, erasing all traces of their previous lives and molding them into cold, efficient killers. Among these recruits is Alex, a striking young woman with a violent past and a backstory not unlike Nikita's. Part of their training involves Amanda, a master manipulator who can turn any ugly duckling into a swan and any bleeding heart into a killer.
