The reveals in this episode - among them that Samar ( Mozhan Marno) is awake and well and accepted Aram's ( Amir Arison) marriage proposal, yay! - do not wash away all the tepid moments that paved the way for "Sutton Ross." Liz has lost so much - including the continued distance with her own young child - because of the man claiming to be Raymond Reddington.

It re-contextualizes many past events and sets up a legitimately compelling showdown between fake father and fake daughter in Season 6 - something The Blacklist has been teasing for years. Instead, Liz staged a kidnapping with the titular Blacklister and her supposed sister to uncover the truth: that the bones belong to the real Raymond Reddington, the man whom our Red has been pretending to be for decades.Īs far as last-minute twists and seasonal pay-offs go, this was a solid one. She swerved Red into thinking he captured the duffel and buried his big secret forever. Despite Red's gloating, the final moments saw Liz return to Tom's ( Ryan Eggold) grave, speak to his ghost and reveal a master plan.
