Divulging nothing about the actual plot this episode, which is a continuation of the previous one, is interesting in predicting the unrest following Saddam's demise and a global pandemic 10 years later, even though it actually happened 13 years later, but goes too far in predicting a nuclear war.
An equally interesting element is the philosophical and very realistic question posed about secret agencies and the US government going in bed with dictators, some of them violent. The two contrasting points of view is that some of them keep global stability and keeping them in place ensures the continuity of that stability and the other point of view is that it is all a power game for global control and dominance.
Generally speaking I find Nikita interestig for being somewhat odd and a bit outdated, and there are a few good episodes, this and the previous one being good examples. I doubt many people will bother watching, but now that the film and TV industry has gone downhill I will definitely be revisiting decades' worth of old material.
