First Mission

T2, E10: Faced with too many missions and too few team leaders, Operations and Michael appoint Nikita as a team leader. Assigned to capture Phillip Stark, who has been buying spent fuel rods from nuclear reactors in Eastern Europe, Nikita chooses her own team. Vizcano, a young female operative on the team, jeopardizes the mission by disobeying orders, but Nikita refuses to punish her. Nikita's team captures Stark, but only after he kills Vizcano. Nikita is enraged when the Section spares Stark's life.
