However, there was one thing that they didn’t tell her – she was being trained as an assassin and a spy!!! Whoa, what an interesting plot for this CW series that is sure to take the DISH Network viewers!

During her exhausting training at Division, Nikita never gave up her humanity, and even fell in love with a civilian. It is when her fiancé was murdered; Nikita finally realized that she had been betrayed as well as that her dreams were shattered by the people at Division – the only people she thought she could trust! So, she escaped from the Division and after hiding for three years she came back to expose and destroy the covert operation of the Division.

Meanwhile, Division continues to ‘rescue’ young people, and turn them into cold and efficient killers. Alex, a promising new recruit whose past is not much different from Nikita replaces Nikita in the Division! She, however, soon begins to understand why Nikita wants to take down the empire!

Percy, Division’s top authority, uses his reputation as a good government employee to turn the secret organization into a profitable spy-for-hire shop.
