This scene was such a shock. The directors and producers did well with Amanda's background.

I know! The writing is really amazing! Realizing all the things she has been through is a LEGIT explanation for everything that she has done

Amanda fascinated me from the first time she appeared onscteen.I'm. Binge watching this show....can't stop.....the actress playing Amanda is terrific.Melinda clatke. i think Amanda is the most interesting character in the series....when she's not in an episode i find that the episode is diminished.....yes, i know she's incredibly evil and sinister, yet there is more to her that meets the eye.i wonder what thoughts lie beneath those captivating eyes....

i agree, when i saw this scene and actually saw Amanda tearing up i felt bad, and i was completely shocked that the whole time Amanda was really Helen, amazing writing for her story!

The true villain of this episode was Matthew Collins. He's the root reason why Amanda or rather Helen, is as messed up as she is.
@blueaqua21225 жыл бұрын
Matthew is truly horrible, but Helen is responsible for her own actions. Don't remove her agency.

It's like her father was trying to I don't know make a soldier a better soldier than any f****** body on Earth. 🤔 That's possible I think the sister did tell authorities government they would definitely be separated from him but he won't get fully charged his star stripes. 👌😎

This episode actually made me feel sorry for Amanda/Helen. I think that after having suffered for that long she was justified in killing her family. Practically her own sister and father made her since one tortured her and the other one didn't "care" about it. In my eyes they had all the rights to die...

Agree .after this I started seeing Amanda as a victim .. everyone abandoned her ... Percy, the hand, nikita,whom Amanda ceated, left division....if it wasn't for Percy and Amanda, nikita would be dead.... Micheal too.....and if there was no nikita, there would no alex.....so,in essence,Amanda and Percy were like parents to all of them....understanding this, in my opinion, nikitas crrusade was hypocritical.....and I started rooting for Amanda to win well knowing that nikita was the so called good guy of the show......

I think her sister did love her and not being able to accept that along with her own trauma and ultimately her own refusal to accept her guilt is what drove Amanda insane. Why else pretend to be the sister she claims to hate?
@JessikahTaylor111 жыл бұрын
I find it annoying after finding out what happened to Amanda, Nikita still is mad at her for killing her family and didnt even feel that bad for her, reallly good episode though, a very sick Amanda storyline...Great performance by Maggie and Melinda.

Same. Amanda's messed up background doesn't justify the evil stuff she does but I couldn't believe Nikita's self-righteous attitude about killing them.
