New year, new episode!!
Thank god, The Blacklist is back!! I've been getting a little bored during the month and a half since the show's fall finale. I got to have my Reddington fix.
"Lipet's Seafood Company" is a great episode if you haven't seen the series yet (like Chicago Med). The question that we've been wondering since we heard about it in the promo is, who's the mole on the team?
Here's what stood out in this episode: One, Aram dealing with the aftermath of being hacked of highly classified information. If you remember, he got into a relationship with an enemy that he had no clue she was part of and hacked the post office. That didn't sit well with the US Attorney, and she interviewed him about it. He admits that he's horrible at picking relationships, and after knowing about Samar's mole doing (that's right, she was the mole, but to save her ex-boyfriend), he breaks off their date.
Another Liz and Tom finally get to have an everyday life. Now that Kirk is somewhere that he can no longer be found or heard, Liz and her family get to have a routine so-called life. She returns to the FBI hoping to be an agent, but it won't happen because she shot the US Attorney (Season 2). But Red, who made a couple of deals with the higher job (President-elect), soon gets her badge back.
I found that the case this week was a bit disappointing but entertaining at the same time. There were a few perfect moments, but the case for this episode didn't stick to me like the rest. The one thing that popped into my head when seeing fish and computer chips was thinking of getting fish and chips.
Nonetheless, even though the story wasn't as strong, the actors' performance helped pull off this episode. Will I rewatch this episode down the road? Maybe. Will I remember it? It's probably from drone to cheeseburger chowder. Overall, I give this episode a 7.5/10.
You can catch The Blacklist Thursday nights at 10/9c on NBC.
