Nikki has been dead for a lil less than 36 hours at the time we are introduced to the Governor's parmour and confidante, Tracy.So no - no time to forge that power relationship. Nikki is dead. It's not that the producers did not like Ali Larter as an actress on Heroes - they just realized that the charater as written was not working in a long term story arc.  The writers took real risks with Nikki since the inception of the show. Some of it paid off initially - but it was not a story arc that transferred well out of the "discovery" stage. Nikki had too much baggage.Kill her off for real; bring her back in a different form, minus the baggage of DL and split personalities. So this really wasn't a split personality Nikki in another diguise. Whether this was her natural "twin" (Jessica never died?), or more likely, an outright clone resulting from a Company breeding program, will be revealed later in the season.But  - if Beeman and Tim Kring are to be believed - she isn't Nikki or any split personality of same. While Micah seems to be staying with the show in some capacity, it does not look good for Monica.  Rumour has it she's being written out of the show this season.</blockquote>
