Maggie Q演技精湛 獲編劇讚賞

When the CW drama kicks off the final episodes of season two, its heroine will be forced to deal with issues left off to the side. Written by Albert Kim and directed by Jeffrey Hunt, "Wrath" sees Nikita captured and left to face a side of herself she had buried a long time ago.

隨着CW電視臺的《尼基塔》第二季漸入尾聲，女主角將不得不面對一些曾經不堪回首的往事。由阿爾伯特?金(Albert Kim)任編劇、傑弗裏?亨特(Jeffrey Hunt)執導的新一集《憤恨》中，尼基塔被俘，也使得她必須直面一直以來都想埋葬的另一個自己。

It was important for the story to unravel organically instead of hitting it head on. "Plot-wise, an old foe of Nikita's returns and is seeking his revenge, captures and proceeds to torture her. Within that crucible, Nikita confronts a lot of her emotional issues, stuff that she may not have been able to say or get to without the threat of physical and emotional distress," Kim said.

劇情應該循序漸進地發展，而不是帶有強烈的跳躍感，這點很重要。“尼基塔的宿敵回來尋仇，將她俘獲然後折磨她。在這樣的嚴厲酷刑下，她開始直面自己的內心世界。如果不是在身心俱損的情況下，她也許無法講出或者面對自己的這些感受。”金說道。

"It was a combination of things that we needed to get to and we needed to address these character issues that have been left hanging," he added.

“前面很多方面我們沒有涉及到，這是填補空缺的過程。同時我們想重點描繪某些一直不曾染指的人物性格特徵問題。”他補充說。

"Nikita ends up in a dark place, where she has to confront the questions of her identity as well as the damage in her past," explained Kim, who added that it is "unsettling as a writer when you try to write those scenes."

“尼基塔被關在一個黑屋子裏，不得不面對她曾經的身份和過去造成的傷害。”金解釋道，他接着補充說，“作爲一個編劇，當你嘗試寫這些場景的時候，內心是很難受的。”

Kim praised series star Maggie Q, who plays Nikita, calling the episode "her best performance of the season."

金對女主角尼基塔的扮演者Maggie Q讚口不絕，稱這是她“這一季中表現最好的一集”。

As for the upcoming finale, Kim revealed that it doesn't exactly end on a cliffhanger.

至於即將播出的結局篇，金透露並不一定在懸念中結束。

"The finale will be satisfying and complete in itself," he said. "There will be threads that we will leave open that will point us in the direction of where season three might go, but it's a traditional cliffhanger where our heroes are trapped in a room with a bomb waiting and we go black."

“結局會非常圓滿，”他說，“我們留下一些開放式的情節線索，爲第三季故事的發展指出方向。不過典型的懸念式結局就是主角們被困在有炸彈會隨時爆炸的房間裏，然後劇集在這裏結束。”
