#THE BLACKLIST SEASON 5 EPISODE 22 RECAP CODE#

The Blacklist Creator Jon Bokenkamp Reveals How Long the Twist Has Been in Place and More Delayed gratification is real, but it's also true that this show tends to delay things for too long, to the point where the real impact is muted by months of frustration. The big question for me is how much this pays off a season's worth of stop-and-start storytelling. 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.ДЄs 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. Thankfully, however, the show's frustrating tactics throughout Season 5 made the turn late in 'Sutton Ross' much more satisfying.
