What if this random Blacklister had just unraveled the entire mystery of her life right there in that horse-stable-prison.
Liz asking Godwin Page if he knows why she represents a weakness to Reddington was adorable. Also, Reddington said Katarina Rostova was never killed? Is Katarina Rostova… IN THAT BUNKER? Or, ahem, nearby? That would, of course, only work alongside my ongoing belief that the woman Reddington killed earlier this season was never Liz's mother, given that she had almost no affection for Liz, and that it definitely didn't seem like Reddington "knew her better than she knew herself," as he says of Liz's mother in this episode. They wouldn't kill off Ressler, would they?!
Also, Ressler is in the hospital for this entire episode with a permanently damaged lung and sepsis, and it's not looking good.
Like Panabaker telling Cooper and Aram that upon her abduction from the Post Office, the DOJ issued a directive to "eliminate" Elizabeth Keen, and as soon as that's done, they'll disavow all knowledge that the Post Office Task Force ever existed.
Between the bunker that holds all the answers and the flying titanium box, there are also some pretty dire stakes swirling around in this episode. And she'll know that because Page is to tell Townsend to book a room at the Golden Leaf Hotel under the name Margaret French, and if that room is booked when Liz calls, she'll know their deal is on. Liz will turn on the chip to lead Townsend to Reddington once she knows that Townsend has accepted her terms. Once he does, she confirms that it's the kind of tracking device that can be intercepted, so if he memorizes the tracking number, Townsend can track the chip himself. So Liz hands him the knife she stole and tells him to dig the chip out of the back of his neck. Townsend has made it extremely clear that he wants to murder Liz in front of Reddington in order to achieve the most well-rounded revenge possible, but Page tells Liz that he can convince him to settle for just murdering Reddington. Red will teach Liz to think like a criminal to \”see the bigger picture\” – whether she wants to or not.Liz tells Page that she has a way to get him out of there and lead Townsend directly to Reddington - if Page can promise that they'll only murder Reddington, and leave her, Agnes, and the FBI alone. He will help catch them all… with the caveat that Liz continues to work as his partner. What are Red\’s true intentions? Why has he chosen Liz, a woman with whom he seemingly has no connection? Does Liz have secrets of her own? Zamani is only the first of many on a list that Red has compiled over the years: a \”blacklist\” of politicians, mobsters, spies and international terrorists. #The blacklist season 5 episode 17 watch online series#
What follows is a twisting series of events as the race to stop a terrorist begins. For Liz, it\’s going to be one hell of a first day on the job. Now, he\’s mysteriously surrendered to the FBI with an explosive offer: He will help catch a long-thought-dead terrorist, Ranko Zamani, under the condition that he speaks only to Elizabeth \”Liz\” Keen (Megan Boone, \”Law & Order: Los Angeles\”), an FBI profiler fresh out of Quantico. Brokering shadowy deals for criminals across the globe, Red was known by many as \”The Concierge of Crime\”. Summary: For decades, ex-government agent Raymond \”Red\” Reddington (James Spader, \”The Office,\” \”Boston Legal\”) has been one of the FBI\’s most wanted fugitives.
