There are only two more episodes of "The Blacklist" before the midseason finale, and it looks like Liz (Megan Boone) will continue to be on the run as the people who care about her try to do everything to help her clear her name.
In this week's episode, Tom (Ryan Eggold) was captured by Charlie Vulcan's men and was forced to participate in an underground fight club. He was pitted against Sutton, and when Tom refused to fight, Sutton told him that he must fight or else, both of them will get killed. When the fight club organizer armed Sutton with a knife, Tom knew that he had to survive if he wanted to see Liz again, so he disarmed Sutton and was able to stab him with the knife.
Red (James Spader) has also been very determined about having Liz exonerated. Red called the Director and told him that he knows that he has been stealing from the Cabal, and lest they learn who has been stealing from them, Red said that the only way for the Director to save himself is to clear Liz's name. However, the Director refused to do so, and Red threatened to kill him if he doesn't do what he asks.
Next week, in the episode titled "Zal Bin Hasaan," Tom and Liz will finally meet up again for a short talk. However, one of them may bring someone to the meeting that could destroy all their plans. According to Cartermatt, Ressler will show up at the rendezvous and threaten to stop the operation right before Liz almost gets exonerated.
Here is the synopsis for "Zal Bin Hasaan":
"A family tragedy in Samar's past resurfaces when the Task Force hunt for an elusive international terrorist. The FBI and the Cabal gain significant ground in their search for Liz and Red. Meanwhile, Tom encounters complications in his plan to exonerate Liz."
"The Blacklist" airs on Thursdays at 9/8c on NBC.
