Like, everyone else on the Task Force has gone full Anakin at some point or another?
And, listen…I dont hate it.
I cannot recall a time where Ive ever thought that before tonights episode.

What else wasThe Blacklistdoing in Wednesdays episode?
In a phrase:the most.
It was a lot.
Some of it was good and necessary, and some of it Im not even sure needs mentioning.
Lets get to it…
THE INFORMANT, NO.
Im sure you’re able to guess what happens next.
She tells him that 57 people died and the terrorist cell claiming responsibility has been taken into custody.
He tellsherthat in the next few days the U.S. Treasury plans to freeze the accounts that financed the attack.
Aram, surely picturing himself in a tux and boutonniere, says thats kind of sweet.
And Herman pulls through!
Not many people tell Raymond Reddington, Bite me.
(Recap continues on next page)
Thats a lot of talk.
How about some action with our resident John McClane, Elizabeth Keen?
But Elizabeth Keen is well on her way to handling Ian Garvey as well.
Whynotget a little assist from an emotionally volatile former FBI agent.
Navarroworkedfor the man who stabbed him with a Damacus knife.
Well give him a call, Liz says.
Unless you want to take another drive.
So its over to the kitchen where PeeWee works.
In an instant, Ressler redirects Samar, telling her that he lost eyes on Bishop.
The presumed reason is that she was getting to close to a crooked cop who wanted her dead.
All together now: UH OH.
And thats when Red calls: Its time to have a little chat, he tells Ressler.
The good news is, you passed, Red tells Ressler.
And for that reason, Red seems ready to help Ressler figure this thing out.
The first stop is Judge Fishers house, where the FBI are also on their way.
She tells Ressler the name of that attorney who made it happen: Mitchell Hatley.
Im in the darkness, Ressler tells Red now.
And doing the right thing is the only way Ill ever feel the light again.
But Red has other plans.
So why did Red remove anything regarding Ressler from Prescotts client files?
And why does Ressler seem so mad about it?
I dont accept, Cooper tells him.
He has a general idea of whats in the letter, and hes not interested.
Im not interested in your feelings, Agent Ressler, Cooper insists.
None of us are the people that we were before the Task Force started, before Reddington.
Aint that the truth.
Look no further than…
Elizabeth, who has finally tracked down Navarro.
She keeps saying that Tom was helping Nik with something that got multiple people killed.
Okay, Liz breathes.
Much like Ressler snatching a bottle of whiskey on the way out of Reds apartment.
I like Detective Singleton.
Aram and Samars relationship status: Boring.
Were you honest once?
Im almost always honest.
