7. The Recruit

Alex alerts Nikita that Division has activated a low-level recruit named Sara, who is sent out in the field to stop an eco-terrorist group; Nikita realizes Division is using Sara for a suicide mission, and is unknowingly implanted with a bomb. Nikita manages to sabotage the operation and convince Sara that Division wants her dead; she plans a new identity for Sara. Meanwhile, another recruit Robbie "graduates" to a guard rather than a field agent that he was hoping for. When Michael and a team find Nikita and Sara, they are forced to be recalled and allow the two to escape after Robbie goes on a rampage in Division for being denied to become an agent. Alex stops him, and though he is later declared dead, it is revealed that Division is keeping him alive to become a cleaner.
