The fall finale of Blindspot has left us with a twisted cliffhanger that gives us an answer and leaves us with more questions.
After the death of David, Patterson tries to get back to work finding his killer. They've found that the book that David had left a fingerprint, which lead them to a suspect that's tied to being a Russian spy.
By the time they get to the suspect's home, Kurt and team spread around the house. He sees that a woman is tied to a chair and he busted in and wounds the suspect but that didn't stop him from injecting a substance and die.
The team finds out that there have been a Russian operation that involves their spies to marry their targets. They spot a female friend in a photo with the suspect and victim, they try to find her but comes across another spy that Kurt and Jane track and captured.
With heavy questioning, she wasn't going to confess but that lead to Patterson turning it up and making her think that they had her fingerprint, but really they didn't. The second suspect opened up and told them everything, but that was after she and Jane talked about how scared she was feeling for her kids.
Kurt and team search for her husband, but by the time they get there he was dead on scene. So that lead them to search for the only suspect out there, the one that killed David. Patterson picked up an ID at a convention.
Kurt and Jane chase her until Jane and her had a really heavy battle. That battle only lasted til Kurt got there and stabbed her with the needle with poison and pushed her off the boat, killing her.
Patterson finally got closer that she wanted and thanked Jane for, well, killing David's killer. As for Jane, who has been trying to figure things out in the beginning of the episode, she sneaks out of her home and waits for Kurt. She wanted to tell him something with a kiss. I think that broke the ice on their relationship.
But Jane heads back to her home, but she gets taken by the CIA and has a chat with Carter. Carter trying to put an end to his and tries to get Jane to spell what she knows by waterboarding her. That scene took a lot of guts to do. Made me just clinch and looked away during that scene.
But as she asked him a question, he was about to drill her with a drill, but that was stop when gun shots were hired. Carter walks towards to noise, but soon gets shot and killed from the mysterious man, who we've seen Jane with in her past. He comes towards Jane and shows her a video of Jane telling her that everything is going to according to plan that she, Jane, has instructed
My thought is WHAT THE HELL? Jane set this whole thing from finding Kurt and the tattoos and more. How? Why? WOW!!!
With such a twist, more will probably be revealed when the shows returns in February.
This was such a good episode. Ashley Johnson throughout this episode and last episode has really done a well performed and Alexander too. The writing was strong with such a twisted final moment. Plus seeing Zapata about to turn in her resignation, but I think she'll pull that out due to Carter not being a problem for her.
Overall, I give this episode a 9/10.
Blindspot returns in February.
