Laura Prudom: 'Nikita' Recap: One Of Its Finest Hours Yet!

20 April 2012 6:00 PM, PDT | Aol TV. | See recent Aol TV. news »

Note: Do not read on if you have not seen Season 2, Episode 19 of The CW's "Nikita," entitled "Wrath."

I said most of what I wanted to say about this week's phenomenal episode of "Nikita" in my earlier preview, but since I'm eager to hear your thoughts on the episode and feel that there are some stand-out moments worthy of closer examination, I couldn't resist writing a quick review-cap too.

Aside from how impressed I am that Albert Kim's script and Jeffrey Hunt's direction steered clear of anything exploitative, what really stood out for me in this hour were Nikita's growth as a character and Maggie Q's gripping performance throughout the episode. This season has seen Nikita struggling weekly with the concept of past sins, utilizing pitch-perfect flashbacks to provide deeper insight into who Nikita used to be and how she became the woman she is today. »

On this week's "Nikita," our lady remembers the first time she was taken to Carla, the woman who got her clean and sober. This episode, entitled "Rogue" gives us a powerful look at the past.

Percy (Xander Berkeley) continues his plan to take back Division by threatening to kill Nikita's (Maggie Q) mentor Carla (Erica Gimpel), the woman who took Nikita off the streets when she was a junkie. Determined to get to Carla before Percy, Nikita uses Madeline (guest star Alberta Watson) to send her a message. Percy intercepts the message and it's a race to see who can get to Carla first. Meanwhile, Amanda (Melinda Clarke) tells Alex (Lyndsy Fonseca) it's time for her to take back Zetrov and reveal to the world that Alexandra Udinov is alive.

Check out the clips below for a sneak peek. Does anyone remember Erica Gimpel from "Fame?" We're thrilled to see her back! »
