Things Have Changed The Blacklist "The Decembrist"

Everything has been lead to this moment, things have changed and if you missed it last night, what the hell's wrong with you?

This time I won't give away spoilers because I think that this episode should be watched and not give any details. But I will give notes at what went down in this episode.

We first get to view a flashback to four months ago when we saw Liz and Tom in a stand point and Tom's shot. When we thought that Liz was going to kill him, she takes him and gets tries to get him well. After that we go from Day 1 to Day 77 of Liz and getting Tom to talk until the last moment of last week's episode.

Meanwhile, Red talks to Berlin about the person who framed him for killing Berlin's daughter. As the daughter talked, she couldn't remember but only a name called "The Decembrist."

That lead to Red getting Liz and her gang to search for The Decembrist. When Liz found out that Red is looking for Berlin, she was stun.

Soon they find a man who they think is the Decembrist, a man in Russia who is the Treasurer for the country. Berlin and Red fly there and talk to him. He tells him that he's not the Decembrist but gave the name who is The Decembrist, who's an American and someone who knows Red.

Meanwhile, Liz on the other hand can't kill anyone, maybe she still has feelings for Tom. With someone snooping around the boat and getting killed by Tom. Liz has no choice but to let Tom go so she can get the where about of Berlin, since he's still on the run and about to kill the Decembrist.

Tom walks free but that probably doesn't mean that will be the last time we will see Tom. We do get to see him walking in a restaurant and talk to Red. As Red gave him an envelop of something, probably money, passport and other things; as Tom leaves Red grabs him and tells him that he need to leave Liz alone and never show his face. But then he tells him that in the four months in the hell hole, that he hasn't told her what his and Red's relationship is or was.

I will say this, two people are dead. Two people that we know.  I won't mention any names to that account. You just need to watch the episode online or if you DVR it, watch it soon.

The game has certainly changes and when The Blacklist comes back, I'm going to be guessing that hell is going to break loose to Red and Liz.

"The Blacklist" will return on February 1st, right after the Super Bowl with Part 1 of a two part episode that will concluded on it's new night Thursday, February 5th at 9/8c on NBC.

Don't miss it! I know I won't! And if you are looking for something to watch next week at 10/9c, why not check out the new series that's from the director of "The Blacklist" called "State of Affairs." The promos and trailers look really good. Maybe a network style of Homeland, if you will.

You can catch last night's episode of The Blacklist on NBC.com right now and On Demand.

Here's the full episode of  "The Decembrist"

Holy Moly Mulaney: "In The Name of the Mother, and the Son and the Holy Andre"

We've probably all lied to our mother a bunch of times just to make her feel better and not knowing some of the bad things we have done. Yet sometime those lies can turn into some crazy situations for us and that's what this week's "Mulaney" has brought upon with John and his mother.

With John's mother coming for the weekend, only to spend some time until Saturday, John gets things ready for her. Like he put up a frame that says something of that an Irish family would have in their house. Apparently John has never put that frame up on the wall before but had lied to his mother. Just like he also lied that he went to church every Sunday, met a cool priest and hangout with him playing hoops.

When John's mother comes, played by Nora Dunn, the John, Jane and Motif greet her. Later on John takes her to meet Lou. John asked Lou to meet his mother and with the unpleasantly agreeing to do it, after talking to her he falls in liking her. Then Lou ask her to go to a Yankee game with him and David Letterman. She accepts it and tells John that she can go with him to Sunday Mass at his church. That really put John in a situation.

After pleading with Lou to cancel the date, he had to go to the other side of evil for help. He went to Church and ask the father of that church to help him by lying to his mother that he's this priest and he knows John. Of course, the father doesn't agree and tells him that he should do some heavy praying. As soon as John left he did ask the father for a blessing on his appearance on The Tonight Show.

Later that night, as John was watching TV in two in the morning. As it was quiet, John begin to get down on his knees and prayed. As soon as he was done praying Jane comes out and yells out if he was praying and John replies no that he was master-baiting.

That morning, as John and his mother were at Sunday Mass, all of the sudden the priest that John had told his mother about is actually for real. He came out and started telling jokes and stories from the bible. Then John and his mother met with him and John had a quick talk with him. Apparently, the father that John talked to had died yesterday and he was the fill in. John asked him if the father died at two in the morning and the guy tells him no but that he died at 2:01 am.

That freaked out John and he went to Oscar for help. Oscar told him that he shouldn't lie to his mother it would just hurt her more than hiding the truth from her. So later on after the Yankee game, John's mother was about to head out and John told her the truth. She wasn't angry at him but did mention that she had a kiss with Lou at the game. Apparently Lou has a crush on her.

Also in this episode, Jane goes through changes not just with her relationship with her boyfriend but with some other changes. Apparently Jane is taking these birth control pills called Jazzaprime. It's suppose to jazz up your life or so.

As soon as Jane takes them, she starts changing. She gets hot and cold. After her date, she comes home sweating through her shirt and Motif and John ask if she was okay. She starts to get into mood swings.

Then Andre a comes in with a gift for John's mother, brownies..pot brownies. Apparently we learn that Andre is taking the same pills as Jane is and as soon as he stops, he changes into a completely different person like a 360 difference.

Later on we see Jane, as she keeps taking the pills, changes into the same character as Andre. It was really freaking out Motif and Jane. She then stops taking it but her boyfriend, who's a lawyer fighting for women to have the right to take pills, didn't like that she stop taking the pills. He also didn't like to wear condoms.

That upset Jane and then she gets him turned on and told him to go into her bedroom and as soon as he runs in there, she calls 911 and reports a man in her room pretending to hold a gun. And then later, we see him coming back to see Jane and then a buffed up Andre comes and takes him out.

I find this episode funny. I thought that Martin and Nora's characters together were funny. It's not surprising to see some former SNL cast members on this show. I do love it. Jane's storyline was funnier too.

You can catch "Mulaney" Sunday nights at 9:30/8:30c on FOX.

Admitting To What You Have: Benched: "Downsizing"

You can take the lawyer out of corporate law but you can't take the corporate law out of the girl. Or maybe it's the other way around, maybe? But if you haven't caught on to one of the funniest new comedy series on cable, you need to. USA Network's "Benched" is a home run of a hit.

This week's episode has Nina dealing with the downsizing from here corporate style living to a more modern style of living.   Jake takes Nina to an apartment that's on sale. She looks around and has a bit of a reaction of how small it is and asked if any elves lived in there.

Later on, Burt, the boss of Nina and others at the public defender's office, is asking for someone to give a speech at a fundraiser. When no one raised their hands, Carlos volunteer to do it. Phil wanted to be there but has another commitment...coaching kids basketball. 

When Nina learns more and more about it, she thinks that this would be the best way of getting people to forgive her and to get her back to corporate law.  She makes a plea for her boss to do it. Jack see's what she's doing but tries it. The next day, Jack gets news that they turn down Nina's request to give the speech, because of her freak out and breaking Elton John's vast. 

Soon enough, Nina goes to see Debbie, who was the woman who took her job and had her freak out, and talked to her about given the speech. After to agree to whatever she wanted her to do, Nina was going to give the speech. 

Nina goes back to the office and tells everyone. When Carlos hears about it, he's disappointed and Phil reads what he was going to say, even if it is the rough draft of it. After Jake hears it, he's happy that Nina was going to give it. 

At the fundraising party, Carlos, Cheryl and Jake meet up. Jake wants to know what it takes to get some crab cakes around here. Then Nina comes in and gives him some. Nina, who's excited and dresses up beautiful but way over confident, gets pulled over by Debbie to meet Maria, the one who's given the fundraiser. 

After making a but of a fool of herself, she goes over her speech and soon Phil comes. He mentions that his team was losing and thought that he should leave them and come to the party. As they talked, Trent comes in and talks to both of them. Nina was in shock and soon found out why he's here. His fiance is Maria. As the party moved on, Maria gave the opening speech and mentioned that Trent, is the guy that has kept her steady and happy. They met while he was still with Nina and it freaks her out completely. 

As soon as Maria was down, Nina gives her speech and as she give it, she starts freaking out bit by bit. As she tries to get herself together, she really does go out. She mentions that the only reason why she's doing this was for her to get back to corporate law but after talking and babbling on, its not looking good at all. 

Well at least she got some claps from Jake, Cheryl and Oscar. So some people did like the speech. 

As Nina sits at an empty table, Phil comes over, holding two drinks. He gives her one and they talk. Soon Cheryl comes in and talks about how the guy Rich who's been given her drinks all night, wasn't trying to get her lose and rich, but he was just a waiter. 

Nina does come to terms and that she's a public defender. The next day as she's getting things into her new apartment, Phil comes in and has his basketball team come in and help out. Nina doesn't believe that it's really his basketball team and that he just picked them up somewhere. She mentions that one of them look sick and Jake laughs and ask what is wrong with her. With a laugh and a smile, Nina tells him that she does not know, she's broken. 

I'm really enjoying this series. With only two episodes in, it's in my favorite new shows on the season. The characters on this show is just so good. Coupe is amazing as Nina. I really enjoy watching Maria Bamford's character these last two episodes as Cheryl. She's just funny and crazy but I think she means well, I think.

Next week episode deals with Nina being booked into jail. How she goes to jail is something that you might not want to miss.

You can catch "Benched" Tuesday nights at 10:30/9:30pm on USA Network.

The Time is Now to Fight for Love: Parenthood "These Are the Times We Live In"

Sometimes we don't know what the meaning of love is, sometimes we fight for love, others may not see it in plan sight. This week's "Parenthood" deals with Julia and Joel's divorce, Drew and Zeek spending time together and Amber and Sarah dealing with Hank and Max's condition.

We see Joel and Julia finalizing their divorce papers. The one thing that was left was who gets the house. Julia thought that the house should be sold, but Joel didn't want to and gave an expatiation that that house has the memories of them living in there with no furniture. Where they brought their little girl from the hospital. Joel wants Julia to have the house.

After that, it was done and soon they walked and rode down the elevator together. You can see it in their eyes that there's something left with these two. Joel grabs Julia's hand and held tight. As the elevator stop, Julia walked out and Joel slowly walks out both emotional.

Later on, we see them as Julia is at Joel's apartment and they talk about the house. Joel said that the house is not an asset, it's a home and if he can't have her than he does want the house. After that Julia thought about what Joel said as she was walking out. She seems to be changing her mind, just a bit.

Then, Julia got a visitor from her boyfriend, they had drinks together. Soon, Julia was going on and on about the divorce and the house. Then he tells her that if he had another couple of glasses of wine that he wouldn't be able to drive home, for which they stopped and called it a night. I'm thinking that after he heard that she got the house and he told her that she can make new memories that he can help create those new memories. For which I would show him to the door and shut it.

We see Joel talking to Zeek about the past and then baseball. Zeek knew that Joel wasn't here to talk baseball and such, so Joel told him thank you for all the wonderful things he has done and that he's leaving. Zeek tried talking same sense out of him and told him that if he still loves Julia than fight...fight for her.

In which, he did. As soon as Joel thought about it in his apartment, he drives to Julia and tells her that even though he was stupid not to fight for her that he's willing for fight for her now. After that we'll have to wait.

During the episode, we see Amber in charge of Max and Nora as Adam and Kristina were away on business. We see little Nora walking into the bedroom where Amber was sleeping and wakes her up. Soon Max comes in and tells her that it's six o'clock, that his mom gets up at that time and his dad sleeps in just a couple more minutes.

They had a plan for the day to go visit Alcatraz. Max got the camera to take pictures from Hank. So later that day, we see Nora playing with a set of keys and putting it in a box. As Amber was thinking over Max talking about time and the best route to take, they left the house and get into the van. until Amber forgot he keys and can't find them. The same keys that Nora put inside the box on the table.

So Max freaks out and soon goes a bit out of control telling Amber that they won't make it and that she'll be the worst parent in history. That really set the thought of Amber not being a good mother to her child. But it was taken care of thanks to Hank for calming Max and Sarah for talking to her about parenting.

Meanwhile for Hank, he still needs to learn about emotions. When Ruby comes to the store, she's upset about a boy. Hank doesn't understand what she's talking about but Sarah does and takes her out and they talk about it. Soon when Hank's ex-wife comes by to pick her up the next day, she gets upset that Sarah is showing a video about teen relationship.

Later we see that Hank see's his ex and talks to her about their relationship. He tells her that it wasn't her fault but it was his, that he didn't understand or see what she was telling him. That's when he tells her about his mental condition and soon she dials it down on him and later the next day picks up Ruby from Hank's place and was going to take her to get some frozen yogurt and then asked if Hank wanted to come and he does,

It seems that after knowing that Hank's condition that she's taking it easy on him and probably wants him back. That I just don't see.

And of course, one of my favorite story lines in this episode was Drew and Zeek spending some time together. We see Drew driving with Zeek what he thought was to the doctors but turns out it was a burger run. Drew didn't think that he should have burgers and a milkshake.

Later on, as Drew was studying for a test, that was coming up in a couple of days, Zeek calls him up for something that he want Drew and him to do. They go to a lot and Zeek shows Drew a bag that has cans of cream corn and beans but also a gun. He wanted to take Drew out and shoot cans just like Zeek's father did with him.

This kind of upset Drew with a big test coming up and Zeek just wasting his time. When I saw him getting upset, I was more upset with him for the way he acted. His grandfather just had heart surgery and he wants to spend some time with you. Test coming up or no test coming up, you spend time with you grandfather or any relative because who knows what could happen tomorrow, right?

Later on, after talking wit his girlfriend, Drew drove back to Zeek's place and got him to go with him to a gun range. He had someone place cans of cream corn and bake beans out  in the field. Zeek then teaches Drew how to use a gun and aim at it. Then, he shoots a couple of cans.

There wasn't a damn thing wrong with tonight's episode. I find it amazing as ever. This show doesn't get enough credit like other shows. When watching this series, you get have that feeling that you would have at home. It's like we are watching ourselves in the Braverman family. They do represent the American family.

There's not many shows that deal with life issues like this and probably not see as many in the future. With this show the writings on the wall and it will stay there for the rest of the entire television history.

Next week's episode will deal with breakups and a scary moment with Amber and her baby. Could she deliver her baby early? Is this what they were talking about as a death in the family? Who knows but we'll have to tune in for it.

You can catch "Parenthood" Thursday nights at 10/9c on NBC.

The Beauties and the Beast: Wednesday Night Crime Night

The Mysteries of Laura: The Mystery of the Mobile Murder

This week's mystery of Mysteries of Laura takes a look around the business of cosmetics. When a woman is found dead on a party bus, Laura and the gang investigates more than just a wild night for the victim.

A janitor cleans up a party bus after one wild night, until he sees a sign on the bathroom door and when he opens it it's a dead woman.

While at the precinct, Billy and Meredith are signing up to the Rock'N Run, which is like American Gladiators meets Tough Mutter. When Laura sees everyone signing up she makes a crack about how much testosterone is in the room.    

That's when the kids come running from Jake's office. Soon Detective Pedilla comes into looking for Laura that was until he talked about the Run and soon Jake, in a bit of jealously, decides to enter the race. Then Laura got the call of the murder.

Laura and Billy investigates the crime scene and sees the victim hit with a moon shape object to the face and also covered in glitter. So they thought up of a club, a strip club, where they go in and saw a bunch of hunky men dancing. Laura was amazed and as she looks around, she gets stop by a stripier cop who then gives her a dance. As she was asking him questions about "her friend" he talks her and soon someone who carries drinks heard the conversation, stopped and the cop signed him to get out.

That's when he leaves and then Billy follows him to the back. That's when the stripier cop stops and leaves, but not until Laura stops him and shows him her badge.

Both Billy and Laura asked the men questions and soon find out that the victim was part of the cosmetics party with a group of friends. That's when they went up there and soon as Laura was looking around she sees a sign that matched the shape the victim had on her face. Billy was amazed.

They follow a bunch of women walking into a room where there was a convention. They see all these crazy women going crazy for Margo of the cosmetics. Soon after hearing what the crowd yells out, they question it.

After the meeting of the convention was over, Laura and Billy talked to Margo, talked to her for a little bit and she left. Soon, they bump into Heidi, who's a bit of a nut, trying to make it big to the business of cosmetics, talks to Laura. Laura takes her to the precinct, to sale some products to the female cops and Max and answer some questions.

Meanwhile, Jake is being trained by Billy for the Rock N' Run, and he's not looking too good for it. After a workout, he looks for his lunch and Billy told him that he took away his sandwich and his booze. Billy said one of the most memorable phrase, "You booze, You loose."

Later on, Laura goes talking with one of the ladies of the cosmetic group. She catches her about to get her tan. After talking to her, Laura then left and soon turns up the level of the tanning room, which later Jake told her turned her very brown.

Jake take Laura off the case for the evening, leaving Billy and Meredith to investigate at a warehouse. As they looking for the area, they heard a noise down the hall, where they found out there was an illegal cock fighting.

Didn't see that coming at all in this episode.

After catching and rounded up the guys, Meredith and Billy finally go into the storage where they saw a collection of Margo's work and photos. That's when Laura talked to Margo and later she took both her and Billy to her hotel room and showed her the safe and paper work.

Laura then asked to use her bathroom and took Billy in there with her. She snoops around and found something that proves otherwise why Julie was going after her. Then as the convection was going on, Laura interrupts and announced that Margo is not the age she say she is, that in fact that she's taken birth control and other meds and that she's really 43 years of age.

That's when Laura said that's what Julie wanted to expose, the truth about her and the products. That's when Heidi gets up and defends Margo. Laura then said that Heidi, who will stick up for Margo, will do anything for her even kill someone who was threatening Margo.

After Heidi's arrested, we catch up with the Meredith, Billy and Jake as they run the Rock N' Run race. Jake is just killing it and the race is literally killing him. At the end, they came in dead last but that didn't disappoint Jake at all after a couple of women were amazed at what he has done and being the only captain to do the race.


The show has really improved since the pilot. I really think that this show has gotten it's characters all at the same level that it should be even with Laura being the main character. This series has a great supporting cast that has such a great characteristic.

Meredith is probably the one character that has shown a lot of improvement since the beginning. She's not just some pretty cop sitting at the desk, oh no, she's got game when it comes to playing video games, she's got attitude and the guts to go after the criminals and suspects.

Even though, next week "The Voice" will be on three nights, Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday. The show will be back in two weeks. Also the People Choice Awards have been announced and the show including Debra Messing is nominated for a PCA. So if you love the show, I recommend you to vote for "Laura" and Messing.

You can catch "The Mysteries of Laura" Wednesday nights at 8/7c on NBC

Chicago PD: "Prison Ball"

Sometimes when a crime happens, it hits close to home. This week's episode of "Chicago PD" deals with a killing of a ten year old girl.

We see Burgess at Atwater's place playing video game with his sister. He gets a phone call about a crime and soon heads up there. Voight and Erin get there and sees that the victim was a ten year old girl, a drive by shooting right to the head.

The new commander tells Voight that this is the only thing that they are going to work on. Soon the mother of the child runs out but Atwater hold her back. He tries to calm her down and tells her that he'll do everything he can to bring justice.

As the Voight and the gang get their information about the girl and the suspects. Atwater gets a source that the suspect is actually the man who is in state prison.

Soon Atwater makes a convincing argument that he should go into the prison to Voight. Voight then makes a call and tells him that no one will no about it expect for the team. We see a bus coming in, criminals comes out and we see Atwater and Ruzek coming out.

They go through the process, they look around the place but not looking at anyone. Soon Atwater see's the suspect that they are after. Later on we learn that both Atwater and Ruzek are not alone, that Dawson is there with them as a prison guard.

Meanwhile, Voight and the rest of the gang try to find the suspect that did the shooting. Erin and Halstead found the owner of the car but got information that it was being tolled away because of the parking tickets, but it really was taken.

Soon, Voight and Al went to the car pound, and talked to one of the guys there, which turned out to be the owner of the place. He starts running and Voight and Al run after him and then gets caught under a car thanks to Voight bumping it.

The guy mentions someone that took it. They run the name and soon the gang went to the guy's place. As they got there, the music in the building was playing very loud. As everyone was set up, Voight decided to go up and knock soft at the door and announced in a low voice, "Chicago Police Department."

That was one of the funniest moments in the episode. I couldn't stop laughing after he did that.

Voight and the gang move in. They got the guy and brings him in.

Meanwhile, Atwater tries to make an impression with the main suspect. Soon he is taken into protective custody. Dawson tells Ruzek about it and soon Ruzek picks a fight with Atwater. They both brawled until it was broken up and Atwater was taken into protective custody.

Atwater gets in and tries to talk to the suspect. After the first attempt, he tries it again and tells him that the guy who did the shooting wants more money from him. He tells him that he's getting five percent and soon his buddy tells him that Atwater is a cop.

Then a fight was being played out. The suspect's bodyguard, sort of, get's his butt kick and falls on his back into the table. Atwater and the suspect fight and after knocking the knife off his hand, he starts kicking his ass by punching his face. Dawson then runs up to him and stops him.

Both the suspect, the shooter and the nephew of the suspect is arrested and taken into custody. Atwater seems to taken this case very personally, since he has a sister, who is the same age as that little girl.

This episode was a non stop episode of drama. I felt that Atwater had a very good storyline. Also the Brugess and Roman storyline was pretty cool and funny. I didn't mention it in the recap because the Atwater storyline was better. But I will say that we do learn why Roman is pissed off at Al.

Apparently, a couple of years ago, when Roman's partner was shot, Al decided to go after the suspect and not help his partner. After telling Roman that he would do it again and bring his partner and he'll tell him the same. That was when Roman told him that he was in another place and on disability.

Next week is one that no one should miss. To all you Chicago PD fans out there, try getting your friends and family to turn in for this epic two night, three show crossover event. It all begins on Tuesday with Chicago Fire then carries into Wednesday with Law & Order SVU and concludes with Chicago PD.

You can catch "Chicago PD" Wednesday nights at 10/9c on NBC.

Cruse and Love: Tuesday Night Comedies

Marry Me: "Annicurser-Me"

If bad things happen on your so call anniversary does it mean that you two aren't meant to be?

When a storm comes, lights go out and everyone goes into the basement of the building. Gil goes GI Joe and takes control of the gang. Gil,w ho acts like it's doomsday, sets up everything that they'll need during this emergency, even if it's just a simple tornado warning.

One scene where Gil shows everyone three buckets, one for bathroom, one for kitchen and the other was for something else. Then he got confused as everyone else was questioning it.

After all that Jake and Annie discuses if their relationship through the dating years are curse, are they meant to be? They go through some moments that really wasn't true like when Jake tells Annie that he was allergic to soy, which he wasn't because he didn't order a piece of cake for Annie.

Then, Annie finds a locked box, which she learns that it's Jake's and soon after going through a moment of Lord of the Flies kind of thing, we do get to see what Jake was hiding, which was pre nup papers from another relationship.

Later on, Anne and Jake come to terms that they aren't curse after all, that it was mostly their friends that have caused everything that has happen to them.

I feel like this episode was one of the best so far. The characters were funny and seeing Gil acting like a hero, Dennah getting turned on by Gil and Annie and Jake trying to understand each other with secrets and curses.

You can catch "Marry Me" Tuesday nights at 9/8c on NBC.

About A Boy: "About A Bad Girl"

No matter what, you can't hide from love. This week on "About A Boy" deals with responsibility and  young love.

When Fiona has to make a decision on to put Marcus's dad or Will as his emergency contact. Will is honored and flattered to take the title, saying that he's a hero to him. That's when Marcus comes in and starts mediating.

Marcus is wearing a Prince-a-pal sign on his shirt and a button that he and his principal will be hanging out together as he'll be his little helper.

Later on as Marcus was cleaning, the principal's room, Shay comes in and takes over the office by playing some tunes and played in over the loud speakers. That's when the principal comes in and demanded of what was going on here.

That's when Marcus took the blame instead of Shay. Later, Will picks him up and talks about how he like her. Will and Marcus discuses how he feels about her and what's she like as a person. That when Will thinks that she's not good for him and that he has to tell the principal the truth.

The next day, Marcus is sitting int he principal's office and soon Shay comes in. They talked about how he took the blame for her and that;s when Fiona comes in. Shay tells Marcus to fight the big man and in which he still admits that he did it.

Later on Fiona talks to Will about the situation. That's when Marcus goes over to Will and talks about it. Will telling him that he shouldn't be friends with her but when a knock at the door comes, it turns out to be Shay and after a one on one talk with her they have a party.

Soon, Fiona comes in and takes Shay to her home. Fiona gets a bit of reality of what Shay is like when she sees her home. Her mother not always at home, hasn't seen her father in six years but gets birthday cards.

Fiona comes back and tells Marcus that she doesn't want him to hang with her. That upsets him and Will and Fiona talk about it for a few minutes but when we see Marcus on the computer writing a poem for his principal, he gets a text from Shay asking if he wants to party. With that we leave it there.

Marcus is really growing up in this episode. He has a crush on someone who is not that different, maybe she has an attitude.

This episode was hilarious from the beginning to the end. Marcus having a crush on someone who is a complete opposite of him but has some of the same interest like loving animals is amazing. I really like how Will is becoming a bit of an adult.


You can catch "About A Boy" Tuesday nights at 9:30/8:30c on NBC.

One Part Hit man, Two Parts Con: The Blacklist: "The Scimitar"

In this week's episode of "The Blacklist" Liz seems to be going rouge when it comes to finding Berlin by having Tom as her prisoner. Agent Navabi has some personal storyline in this episode. And Red gives a huge bomb at the end.

So where to begin? Agent Navabi was in Dubai, she meets someone actually come on to her and soon went up into his hotel room. Later as they go in, the guy is thrown out the window and on top of a car. He was dead before falling.

We see Liz and Tom talking. Tom is asking Liz to be release from this so he can go out there without Berlin of anyone of his guys notice he's gone. Too bad man. Liz demands the person who's meeting with Berlin and Tom gives his name to her.

As Liz leaves the room, Tom ask for warmer clothes because it does get freezing in the bottom on a fishing boat.

Later on, Liz and Navabi get summoned by Red. They meet him at a record store and soon he tells a story about a professor who walks into a bar and later gets killed. He then goes and talks about a man by the name of The Scimitar is out and on a mission to take down the top scientist in the country.

Liz and the gang try to give protection to the scientist and finding where the Scimitar could be at. When a tracking device locates to an abandoned construction site, Liz and Ressler are there to have a look.

Later on, Liz goes talking with Red and mentions about a source of a man who knows where Berlin is at. Red gives one of his looks that he knows when you are lying and of course Liz is totally lying to him about how she really killed Tom. Liz tells him that he'll give him the location of where Berlin is after she talks to the guy.

She does talk to the guy and soon gives the locations of Berlin's whereabouts.

Soon the FBI somehow get a call about one of the scientist being a target. When Liz and Ressler pick him up, already shoots were being fired and they are off until they were being chased. Soon the motorcyclist shoots the back window and then drops a some kind of sonic bomb which knocked them out and the car flip really big on top.

Liz and Ressler are out but soon later they are in a hospital. So they thought it was. The doctor comes in and talks to Liz, she has a broken arm and told her she'll need surgery to repair it completely. Soon Liz makes a phone call to Cooper and what seems to be fine then turns out it was not. That when the guy that they were trying to save and put into protective custody turns out to be not one of the scientist and it was The Scimitar who scammed them.

As Red said, The Scimitar is one part hit man, two parts con man.

Liz then devises a plan to get out and when the nurse comes back to give her some relax meds, Liz takes her down and gives her the meds instead. Then Liz runs to Ressler, who's been out and heavily medicated since they got there. He wakes up and then gets dressed. That's when one of the men comes in and tries to take them out. Liz then hides behind the door and hits and then knocks him out.

That's when Navabi calls Red and tells him about the situation. Then they go to a guy who's given The Scimitar all that he needs, the supply guy. Red and Navabi meets the guy and then gets him to talk of where The Scimitar takes his victims.

That's when Navabi and the FBI come in and rescue Liz and Ressler.

The Scimitar makes a go to the scientist who is speaking at a conference. He soon comes into her room pretending to be FBI and then takes her. Liz and Ressler goes to the hotel where the scientist and Scimitar are at and Liz spots a man who was pushing a cart with a big bag. Liz and the Scimitar meet again and soon the car with a shooter starts shooting around the area and the Scimitar gets away.

Liz and Ressler spots something moving in the bag and it turns out to be the scientist.

Later on, the Scimitar gets to his safe spot, the suppler's place and soon meets Red, who was sitting on a lawn chair and talks about how its crazy that people who run come to him.

Navabi then gets a call from Red and sees that The Scimitar is with him tired up. Red gives The Scimitar to her as a gift, since he is the one who killed her brother. Within a minute, Red gets a call and has to go. He tells her don't do anything that he wouldn't do, which means don't call the FBI on it.

We see Liz and Ressler talk, Ressler talks about his under control drug addiction. He seems like he's going to give it up but who knows what will happen. You can try but you'll need help getting through with it no matter what kind of person you are. Soon Cooper tells them that a body has been found matching the describing The Scimitar and it turns out it is.

Then, we come to a Red's car coming into a warehouse. Red gets out and soon we see Berlin. Red and his man, are surrounded by Berlin's men. Soon Red talks about how Liz told him where he's at. Then Berlin talks about how he's going to pick up his daughter and seeing that they've been having a nice time together. That's when he bring out the girl, who we thought was his own, soon he spells out that this is not his daughter but it's Berlin's daughter. The Bombshell have been blown sky high.

What an ending that turned out to be. I never thought about her to be Berlin's daughter. I wonder when are we going to learn about Cooper's medical condition, since the season premiere episode?

This was pretty good episode. Some of it were a bit predictable but all in all it was a top entertainment of last night in my book.

Next week is the Fall Finale that no one, and I do mean no one should miss. From what I can say is that Liz seems to be going full rouge and in a way acting a bit like Red. Things will change. Don't miss it. Because the next time we'll see The Blacklist is Super Bowl Sunday after the game and then the same week will be moving to Thursday nights at 9/8c.

You can catch Fall Finale of "The Blacklist" next Monday at 10/9c on NBC.
