The Blacklist‘s plot synopsis: “Raymond “Red” Reddington, a former US Naval Intelligence officer who had disappeared twenty years earlier to become one of the FBI’s Ten Most Wanted Fugitives, surrenders himself to FBI Assistant Director Harold Cooper at the J. In the process, they begin to uncover lethal adversaries, unimaginable conspiracies and surprising betrayals that will threaten alliances and spur vengeance for the past, led by the most devious criminal of them all – Raymond Reddington. Finding themselves each at a crossroads, a common purpose compels them to renew their original mission: to take down dangerous, vicious and eccentric Blacklisters.

In the two years following the death of Elizabeth Keen, Raymond Reddington (James Spader) and the members of the FBI Task Force have disbanded – their lives now changed in unexpected ways and with Reddington’s whereabouts unknown. (08:00PM – 09:00PM) (Thursday) : A spate of coordinated attacks on Red’s lieutenants puts Dembe in imminent danger, prompting him to relive the events that led him to join the FBI two years earlier.

Had Liz decided to take Agnes with her to the cabin, it would have provided more complications than necessary.The Blacklist stars James Spader, Diego Klattenhoff, Fiona Dourif, Amir Arison, Mozhan Marnò, Ted Williams, Geraldine Singer, Maria-Christina Oliveras, Christopher Lambert, Tom Martin, Hisham Tawfiq, and Harry Lennix. Kids are much more resilient than we give them credit, and I'll take a wild leap that Agnes will be fine, for the most part.īesides, Liz has some serious business to take care of now, and it's better Agnes is somewhere safe. While I don't necessarily agree with Liz's decision, she made the right choice for herself and what she thought was best for her and Agnes. Megan Boone did a phenomenal job portraying all of Liz's genuine emotions during the flashbacks. Having to care for a child while trying to care for yourself after a tragic death is not an easy task. It wouldn't have been impossible for me to do, but I remember how raw the pain was at the time, the feeling that I couldn't go on. I tried to imagine what it would have been like had I handed off my five-year-old son to my mother-in-law after my husband died unexpectedly (and not nearly as horrific as Tom did), and I just couldn't imagine it. It's true that Agnes was without either of her parents for a nearly a year, but having mom come back to life and then disappear again had to be difficult. One thing that I don't quite understand is how Liz could leave her daughter during all of that.

I would have been okay with her telling them she was going to rip them all limb from limb just because they killed her dog. Whatever the reason, it was annoying that she felt the need to justify herself. Maybe telling them was to up the ante so they would get down and dirty and offer her more of a challenge. It would have been a lot more fun if they thought a random woman living alone in the woods was responsible for their demise. We know her background, so why did the mob guys need to know? She would've kicked their butts with or without them having that knowledge.
