Plot[]
Rachel takes the fall for shooting Ryan. Alex interrupts Nikita and Michael's interrogation of Rachel. Danforth is dead 'ruptured brain aneurysm'. Owen goes to Danforth's house to clear it. Amanda captures Owen and undoes the brainwashing. Owen now remembers that his name is Sam.
Alex meets with everyone who's mutineering. They ask how Rachel is. Alex says they'll all get new identities and money. They need software access to bring the trackers down. Alex says she will handle Birkhoff.
Owen/Sam remembers some of his old memories at Kosovo, including killing all of his friends. They visit the one living member of his old unit 'Scotty' in Baltimore.
Alex whispers to Michael about unrest. Michael speaks to the floor and tells everyone to focus and do their jobs. Alex talks to Birkhoff about leaving Division and says that he is the only person to talk about it to. Birkhoff says that he asked Sonya to leave with him right after the SEAL troops. Alex says what if you didn't have to leave them in the lurch. Alex is frosty with Sean when Sean interrupts.
At Baltimore, Sam says one got away and immediately shoots Scotty. He then beats up Nikita and ties her up. Nikita says I'll help you fix this. Sam clarifies. Owen/Sam was the leader of his unit smuggling drugs. His unit tried to cut him out. His unit tries to shoot him, he shoots his unit. In the flashback, Scotty asks if he's still alive and shoots Sam again. Nikita tries calling him Owen, but he says "SAM, Owen's a tool... a whipped little puppy dog".
Amanda and Sam talk on the phone. Sam sells Nikita out. Amanda only offers $50,000 and Sam's offended, he wants the 'full bankroll'. Amanda says her goal was never money. Amanda suggests that he get the black box and she'll sell it for Owen/Sam.
Sean catches on to Alex and follows her. Tries to stop her but meets her large mutiny group. Sean goes along with it when Alex defends him. Rachel shows up and takes control. They take over ops.
Nikita is now with Amanda. Amanda confesses that Larissa was an hallucination. Alex was always in a chair not a bed. She stimulated certain areas of her brain and manipulated Alex.
Owen/Sam has the black box. Owen/Sam and Michael fight. He knocks Michael down but comes across the Mutineers.
During the mutineer demonstration, Rachel and Alex struggle for control. Birkhoff gets smacked down. Rachel announces the ones that aren't with them will be shot on sight. The ones who are with them will be free to leave.
Sam calls Amanda. Amanda puts him on speakerphone and lets Nikita hear.
