This was an amazing episode.
ReplyDeleteI loved how the writers are still keeping us on the edge of our seats while adding new layers of mystery every episode!
Completely agree! The rest of Season Two is going to be great!
ReplyDeleteI must be in a minority but I'm starting to feel that this show is becoming utterly ridiculous.
ReplyDeleteI loved the scene where Liz accused Red of only caring about her due to the fulcrum. Spader played it so well. You could tell that he was unsure of exactly what she remembered, and I believe he thought she might have seen the "truth." You could see the slight confusion when she said he was there that night for the fulcrum. Then, as she said her father must have died, you could see he was desperate to tell the truth. He was almost chewing on it. (whatever the truth is...)
ReplyDeleteThe best part was the way he recoiled and shuddered when she told him not to touch her. We are used to seeing Red so cool and under control. (Walking through the prison blacksite with his pump shotgun for example...) He is rarely rendered vulnerable, but he was in that moment. And, Spader did all that.
Megan Boone, on the other hand, can't act. We are supposed to sympathize with her as a character in that scene, but she comes across as empty. and I find myself annoyed with her instead of seeing her perspective.
I really didn't understand her crazed look when she discovered the fulcrum. Where Spader adds depth where it isn't there by script alone, she turns it into mush...
Just my opinion but I think this episode opened the door to moor questions when the doctor at the end said the people were there but played different roles!
ReplyDeleteI like them both I can't wait to see what Liz dose with it and My bet is just like the doc said at the end the people were there but there roles were different!!!
ReplyDeleteI loved the opening & ending sequences and the Red/Liz scenes.
ReplyDeleteRed and Dembe cleaning house and saving Liz. Handsdown the best moment of the episode! Anything else I could care less about, especially Liz and here hissy fit of the week. So Red was there!? It doesn't mean he couldn't have been there to save her.
ReplyDeletegreat point I thought the same thing. Which means we can't trust any of Liz's Flashbacks, right?
ReplyDeleteIt basically just confirmed Red was there which we already knew from the burns, helped her locate the fulcrum, and served to explain why she remembers zero. Back to square one now... Haha!
ReplyDeleteLol! Right, back to square one. The Blacklist tends to do that a lot. They love throwing out 2 or 20 questions for every 1 answer they give us, Lol
ReplyDeleteI just posted my Review btw if you want to go check it out?
ReplyDeleteRight the dr. Said the people were there but could had diffrent roles meaning everything we say could be diffrent!
