Finding himself squeezed in by an unknown enemy, Red cut a swath through yes-men and henchman before getting to what he wants: a story. “Berlin: Conclusion” eventually got down to what makes the show tick: a motivated Red, taking care of business with flair.
THE BLACKLIST SEASON 5 WIKI FULL
OK, your turn.Warning: Full spoilers for the episode follow.Īfter a season of vague hints at deeper conspiracies and endless questions about mysterious pasts, The Blacklist kicks the can down the road to next season. She’s never gonna let it go.” (Well, he’s half-right, at least.) As Red burns every last bone in that bag, Dominic reminds him, “She may not know your secret, but she knows you’ve got one. Red, meanwhile, pays a visit to Liz’s grandfather, Dominic. I’m ready,” Liz responds, and the women leave the cemetery together. Tom warns his wife to be careful, and she assures him she’ll have help on her mission to take down Reddington: It’s Jennifer, who meets Liz at Tom’s grave and asks if she’s ready. Why he came into my life, why he took your life, why he’s spent the last 30 years pretending to be Raymond Reddington - I’m gonna figure all that out. “I know now that those bones in that bag are Raymond Reddington’s.

RIP, Naomi Hyland! - Liz finally confirmed the long-awaited identity of those bones. Everything that followed - the kidnapping, the torture - was all an act, designed to lure Red to that warehouse and make him think he was getting away with his big secret. But Sutton did tell her the truth about those bones when he was being interrogated, and he wanted to prove to Liz that Red was keeping a massive secret from her. That’s when Liz explains, from her perspective, how her entire plan unfurled perfectly that afternoon. “This time, I have a secret, too,” she tells Tom. In the final minutes of the episode, Liz visits Tom’s grave, where she’s visited by a vision of her late husband. Turns out, though, that sitting down was the best decision she’s ever made. So, yes, it would seem that Liz’s choice to sit with Sutton in that interrogation room was a bad one, seeing as she didn’t get her hands on the duffel bag after all that effort. They arrest Sutton, but Red shoots and kills the man on his way out of the warehouse, duffel bag in hand, at last. “After all, what is she to you, really?” And just as Red is about to spill all the skeletal beans - “The truth? The truth is I am not…,” he begins - the FBI bursts into the warehouse, interrupting whatever secret Red was about to divulge. “Perhaps her life isn’t worth your revealing your precious secret,” Sutton taunts.
Sutton agrees - but only if Red gives him the truth first. We don’t see Sutton and Liz again until later, when Red arrives at the warehouse where his daughter is being tortured and agrees to trade his own life for Liz’s. “You may want to sit, Agent Keen.”Īt first, it seems Liz makes a very bad decision by sitting down: Not long into the interrogation, Sutton gets the upper hand and takes Liz hostage, persuading her team all the while to help him exit the FBI building unscathed. “Because I’ve looked in the bag,” Sutton says, when Liz asks why she should meet any of his demands. Liz and the FBI team get to Sutton first, and when they bring him in for interrogation, he requests that only Liz speak with him, provided she also cuts the audio and video feeds to the room. Now, 30 years later, Sutton plans to get his revenge by exposing the secret in that duffel bag to the very people Red wants to keep in the dark. Decades ago, Sutton had got into some serious legal trouble, and it seems Reddington is to blame for that mess. Let’s back up: Wednesday’s finale finds both Liz and Red - or is it “Red”? - in pursuit of Sutton Ross, a blacklister who received the duffel bag of bones from Ian Garvey in Costa Rica.
I have no idea who James Spader has really been playing all this time, but it ain’t Red - a truth Liz now knows herself. That is, the real Raymond Reddington, who has apparently been dead for 30 years. RELATED The Blacklist Renewed for Season 6
