Plot summary
Alex runs into an old friend from her past, Irina. When she tries to help her, Alex is kidnapped by Vlad, the sex trafficker who captured Alex after her father's death. Vlad attempts to force Alex (which includes tempting her back to drugs) into confessing she is the daughter of Nikolai Udinov, a Russian billionaire who was killed by Division. Meanwhile, Michael reluctantly works with Nikita to save Alex, while at the same time Nikita does not expose her secret. The two find the warehouse where Vlad is holding a number of sex slaves. During the attack, Irina helps Alex escape; Alex later confesses to Vlad she is in fact Udinov's daughter and "rewards" him by killing him. Michael later returns Alex to Division to begin her withdrawal, however Amanda uses the opportunity to ask her a few questions about her past.
