    Great Show.
    When "La Femme Nikita" premiered I thought the show would be a typically cheesey USA show: no plot, lots of naked women. To my surprise I genuinely think the show is among the best on TV.

    The show's plots are complex and well-thought, taking the usual conventions of the action genre and turning them on their head. Even Peta Wilson, who looked like she was originally cast in the title role solely on her looks, has turned out to be a talented actress. She lends an emotional depth to the role of Nikita that is surprising.

    Very good.

    • One episode plays a song which repeats the lyric "can you hear me now?". What is the name of the artist, title of that song, and episode where it airs?
    • What does "in a bance" mean exactly, and how do you spell that? (He's in a bance, they say that a lot of characters that are about to be killed in the suicide mission those "in a bance" are sent to.)
    • What are the lyrics (in French) at the end of the main title?
