He says that even though all of the incriminating intel is 25 years old, “most of the key delegations are still run by the same players.” Yeah, sure, fine. There was a quick Fulcrum note from Leonard Caul to appease some of our timeline questions.I never know what to expect with that guy. Just a quick note for you Blacklist historians: Tom started off the season locked in a boat, became a German neo-Nazi for a while, and now he’s just around for cuddles.

In fact, he arrived a little later in a casket with a Darth Vader breathing mask on and a foreboding “Welcome to America” from up above. Zhang tells them it’s not a what, it’s a who-an Agent Karakurt-and he’s not coming next week… he’s already here.

Speaking of the Cabal, Agents Keen and Navabi get out of Zhang what weapon he was supposed to be smuggling for the Cabal in a week’s time.

Cooper can’t understand, with all their power, why they would even need someone like him Tom tells him, “All will soon be revealed.” Great. And then the creep just straight up tells him he’s working with the Cabal now and that with all that he knows about Cooper-how he perjured himself for Liz, all the little illegal favors he’s done-they “own him” now. Eventually he decides that the train stops here, but when he tries to refuse Connolly right before his swearing in as Attorney General, Connolly tells Cooper he doesn’t even know the extent of the train he’s been riding. Cooper told his wife that it was now completely clear to him that his heath (i.e., his place in the medical trial) depends on continuing to do these favors for Connolly. It’s time for Cooper’s Corner! Slimy Tom Connolly asked Cooper to do him yet another favor, this time in the form of fabricating a classified document and then leaking it.Knowing boundaries is important for non-children and their non-parents. This breach of trust makes it easier than ever for Liz to keep their working relationship strictly professional while she dives into their personal connection on her own, knowing full well that Red will be trying to block her every step of the way. She doesn’t have to declare that they’re through forever or that she’ll never trust him again (or whatever she usually does) to draw these new relationship lines in the sand, and it’s best that she hasn’t. This wasn’t the most seamless episode, and many of the big reveals came with little fanfare, but make no mistake, this is a turning point for Liz and Red. And there’s a difference in Liz knowing she doesn’t have all the information, and knowing that she’s deliberately not being told all of the information of her own life-that Red never had any intention of telling her that there’s no timeline he’s working with to eventually bring her all the way into the fold.
