Simone is a guest starring character on the 1997 USA Network series "La Femme Nikita". She is portrayed by Hong Kong born actor Mung-Ling Tsui.
History[]
She was a Section One field operative that was revealed to be Michael's wife. Simone was believed to have been killed during a cold mission she ran with Michael. The pair encountered resistance and had no backup. During the collapse of that mission, Simone was captured by the terrorist group Glass Curtain and tortured by Errol Sparks for three years. It is strongly suggested that Operations knew about Simone's captivity.
Although her operative status was never revealed, she was likely a Level Two operative.
A mission with a resurgent Glass Curtain puts Michael one edge. Nikita is chosen over him by Operations to go undercover with Glass Curtain. Nikita discovers the abused and traumatized Simone within the terrorist group's compound. After an emotional reunion with Michael, a freed Simone misleads Michael and Nikita on Errol Sparks' location. Set on revenge, Simone holds Sparks hostage and she locks herself in a room with him in the final minutes before the destruction of Glass Curtain's compound. In desperation, Michael attempts to gain access to the locked room. Simone professes her love to Michael but apologizes for what she's about to do.
Nikita manages to pull Michael from the compound before it self destructs and kills everyone inside.
Walter confides to Nikita that the loss of Simone the first time severely impacted Michael's ability to interact with others. He hoped that history wouldn't repeat itself this time.
During the war with Red Cell, Michael's stolen file reveals that Simone and Michael had a son who died in infancy and that Michael blamed Section for the death.
When Nikita questions Michael about how they handled Simone's pregnancy, Michael asserts that Simone was never pregnant. Confused, Nikita begins to ask for clarification but Michael cuts her off. It is unclear if the pregnancy was real or a Section manipulation.
With regards to his blood cover assignment, Michael tells Nikita that he and Simone didn't talk about his assignment or his marriage to Elena Vacek.
