Picking up where the last season ended, Elizabeth Keen is now a wanted fugitive. She's in the run with Reddington and his former partner, Donald Ressler, is hunting her down.
It's really frustrating that Ressler has to go after Liz because "it's his job". Grr. But then I know that somehow Ressler cares for Liz.
I really love this show and this season gives me so many heart attacks. I mean, every episode surprises you with new story and now that Liz is fighting to prove her innocence, she must run away first and let Reddington and her friends save her. I'm also loving Aram more and more especially when he saved Liz when she was brought back in by the FBI and Peter tried to kill her in her confinement. I really loved that scene.
Ressler and Navabi became partners now that Liz is gone.
I'm on episode 12 now and the previous episode showed us that Liz is pregnant and everyone knows who the daddy is. Ugh! And there I thought Ressler has a chance. Tsk. Anyway, I'm trying to finish the remaining episodes and I'm ready to find out all the secrets Reddington are keeping.
And... can I hope for Liz and Ressler to have a little romance? :")

UPDATE!!
I just finished episode 23 tonight and OH MY GOD I knew it! I knew Liz isn't dead because... she can't be dead!! She just can't die because what's the point if she is already gone in the show?
Anyway, after finding out that she is pregnant, Liz initially wants to put the baby up for adoption but decided otherwise when she realizes how hard Tom is working for them to have a future. In the end she decided to marry Tom on which Reddington strongly objects.
Liz and Tom escape but Liz gets injured in a car accident which endangers the the baby inside her. With the help of Mr. Kaplan who arranges a secure location and Nik who performs an emergency Caesarian section on Liz, they get to save both the child and Liz. They name the baby Agnes.
Reddington is happy that Liz and the baby are safe but Liz doesn't want Reddington anywhere near Agnes. It hurts Reddington but we can't really blame Liz for not wanting her child to have anything to do with Reddington after everything that happened to her because of him. Mr. Kaplan then tells Reddington she's going to talk to Liz about it.
But shortly after baby Agnes was born, Liz's life is in danger again as she falls in a critical condition. They immediately move her in an ambulance but on the way to the hospital, Solomon's men show up again, cornering them and giving Liz no chance to fight for her life. And in that ambulance, Liz dies. *cry a bucket*

But on their wedding day, Mr. Solomon shows up with his men, gun blazing and determined to take Liz no matter what method necessary. And of course, Reddington comes to the rescue and together with their other friends, they hold off Mr. Solomon until Ressler and his back up arrive to help.

I was skeptical when I watched this episode and I was like, "What? No, no, no. Liz can't die! No, she can't die. Seriously? NOOOOO!" And I remember ranting in twitter saying I won't watch the series anymore because what's the point when Liz is dead? But then I read an article about this episode with James Spader saying that Elizabeth Keen is dead. It was when I decided to accept it. But still...
Moving on... Liz's friends grieve for her death and they attend her funeral, remembering all the good things they've shared with her and how she became a family to all of them. It was actually heartbreaking and Aram made me cry.
“When she shall die… take her… and cut her out in little stars, and she
will make the face of heaven so fine that all the world will be in love
with night and pay no worship to the garish sun. Romeo and Juliet.
Agent Keen loved Shakespeare. And Dr. Seuss. She loved dim sum and… and
Beyoncé, and those little wooden, uh, foot massagers that go under your
desk. (VOICE BREAKS) I know the things she loved because we were
friends. Even though I called her “Agent Keen,” that was out of the
respect I had for her. (BREATHING UNEVENLY) Her friends also called her
Liz. (CRYING) I miss you, Liz. (SNIFFLES) Just… Okay. Thank you.
(SPEAKING INAUDIBLY)
(The Blacklist Declassified)
Liz's death is hard for everyone especially to Reddington. It devastated him and it makes him somewhat vulnerable. He's in hiding for a while, taking his time to accept the fact that Liz is already gone. He also visits Dom, Liz's maternal grandfather, delivering the sad news. After some thinking, he eventually returns to the task force, offering his help on finding Liz's killer.
Now everyone is focused on finding who's responsible for Liz's death. Reddington tells them to find a woman named Susan "Scottie" Hargarve who he believes employed Solomon to kidnap Liz. They eventually found Scottie and it turns out Red and she go back a long way. Tom, on the other hand, is busy looking after Agnes but he also wants revenge for Liz. He's not also letting Reddington near Agnes in fear that Agnes would face the same fate as her mother.
In the end, Scottie has no choice but to give up the name of the one who ordered to kidnap Liz. Alexander Kirk. So then everyone focuses on finding Kirk, determined to get their revenge for Liz's death. Following their leads, they found out that Kirk is now after Tom and Agnes and in order to protect Agnes, Reddington convinces Scottie to team up with them. Tom also agrees on letting Reddington see Agnes in condition that he would do everything to catch Kirk. Reddington then put his men on watch over Agnes and Tom for protection.
And together with Scottie's team, Reddington and the task force, which reluctantly agrees, make a move to draw Kirk out.
It is also revealed that Scottie is actually Tom's mother when he tries to kill her but Reddington stops her.
On the last episode, they are closing in on Kirk and Reddington is resolved on killing him. He sees Cooper to tell him that he's going to leave the task force now that Liz is gone. He also says goodbye and asks Cooper to look after the others. He then executes his next plan, waiting for Kirk to show up so he could kill him. But Ressler stops him, saying he wants justice for Liz's death not vengeance. Reddington tells him it's the same for him and it doesn't really matter as long as he kills Kirk.
Ressler tries to stop Reddington and at first he's so against him pulling the trigger but after contemplating, he finally lets Reddington do it. But unfortunately, or fortunately for Ressler, Kirk doesn't show up. It turns out that Kirk is on his way to Cuba after finding out that Tom gives Reddington's men the slip and he flies to Cuba with Agnes with the help of Mr. Kaplan.
It's then revealed that Liz is actually alive (Oh my god oh my god oh my god!) and she's waiting for Tom and Agnes in Cuba all this time. See? I told you she's not dead! :P
Reddington is furious with Mr. Kaplan when he finds out that she actually helped Tom flee the country. She tells him she doesn't regret it because now Agnes is safe but when Reddington tells her that Kirk knows that Tom and Agnes are in Cuba, Mr. Kaplan reveals that not only Agnes is in danger but also Liz.
She then tells Reddington how she and Nik had faked Liz's death in order to protect her from Reddington. She says she did it because it was Reddington's fault that Liz had to suffer and she doesn't want Agnes to face the same.
In Cuba, Tom returns home from the groceries only to find Liz gone and a man reaching for Agnes. He's able to grab the man just before he could touch Agnes and knocks him out. Reddington and his men arrive a little too late only to find the house already empty. Now Reddington is more furious and asks Mr. Kaplan what he should do with her. (Ugh! It's not Mr. Kaplan's fault!)
Ressler also tells Cooper that Liz is actually alive.
The season ends with Liz being held somewhere and Alexander Kirk showing up, telling her that he's Constantin Rostov, her father. Whaaaat?
Gahd, I can't wait for the next season and you don't know how happy I am to know that Liz is alive! :) I was actually convinced that Elizabeth Keen is dead but Marsha Rostova is not! HAHAHA xD Now I'm more excited to see what will happen in the next season. And I'm still not giving up hoping that there will be a Liz-Ressler romance even though we already have Agnes. Hihi :D
