Well... as far as I am concerned... it lived up to every last bit of the hype it received and then some. James Spader is the perfect criminal. This is going to be a really good show if they can keep it together and keep all the twist going. I felt like a pretzel before the show was over with tonight.
No way Tom is in any way a good guy. Fed's/Good Guys don't normally kill people at the drop of a hat, like Tom did to his handler/baby-sitter. Nor do they jump out of windows when captured, like his "brother."
I think Tom is still playing Liz, and trying to get her to come over to his sphere of influence, which is against Red. To that point, I am guessing the photos in the safe deposit box are of Red killing Liz's adoptive father. Tom was in the hospital, and the organization he works for seems to have a pretty good pool of assets. So it wouldn't be too hard for them to have been monitoring her father when Red visited, and filmed/photographed it.
That would be an effective tool to drive a wedge between Red and his "allies," namely Keen and the FBI.
Great episode. Keen made some big booboos as usual. I'm betting the picture that she saw in the box was of Red suffocating her adoptive father.
Also, I'm pretty sure that Tom's hidden box from a long time ago had her scar on it and it looked like the envelope in the safety deposit box had the scar on it as well. I want to know why she's so important!
Agree on all points. I noticed the markings on the box/envelope as well. Which was the same as the box of Tom's fake passports from earlier in the season.
I also am really curious why she's so important. Tom seem bewildered, genuinely, at Red's and others attention on her. It seems like it would/should be more than just her being Red's daughter...

Because it would put her is "grave danger" per Red. Therefore, it is either Red or perhaps someone like Berlin. However, remember when Red was questioning Berlin's hit man tied to the chair (shot him in the hand), the hit man eluded to the fact that it was easy to find "her" or something about making the connection with "her"... referring to Lizzie. So... Berlin could know that either Red is her father and/or he could know who her father is and that Red it trying to protect her. There is one thing for sure, two things for certain, Red is either her father or owed her father big time because of his persistence and loyalty to protecting her.
Maybe they can bring her back as a ghost, a witch... or a vampire. :huh: I mean really... didn't Stefano on Days of our Lives have like 9 lives. I know he came back from the dead fifty-eleven times.
The Blacklist starts again tonight. I can't wait. I hope it's awesome I haven't watched any of the previews or anything so I dunno what's gonna be happening.
I feel like Berlin is such a mediocre character compared to Reddington. Red is so much more sophisticated and Berlin is just a hacky 70s stereotype. Poor ex-wife though
I have specifically stayed out of this thread since it was announced due to wanting to binge watch it... and now that I'm caught up I have to say this. James Spader makes this show. the plot isn't FANTASTIC, but it's fun and decent enough, but James Spader as Reddington is pure gold. I can't take my eyes off of him when he's on screen
I didn't know there was a blacklist dedicated thread, I love the show.
It probably has been discussed for sure and my DVR messed up and I missed the last episode. Is Red the father of Elizabeth? I don't know but I think he might be.
After the first 3 episodes I'm not enjoying this season as much as the first. I hope I change my mind but at this point I don't plan on finishing the season. Also not the right thread but 15 minutes into Gotham I turned it off, extremely disappointed after all the hype they gave it
