To anyone watching I would pose the question : Where do they go from here? I think that question alone is going to be the driving force behind the rest of the season. Tom has gotten his “new friends” into some serious doo doo.
On top of that, Dembe has been seriously injured and Ressler now has to share all of his intelligence with CIA. The stakes continue to rise with each passing episode, as proving Liz’s innocence becomes more and more difficult. Every character was involved with the central plot. Ultimately, “Arioch Cane” was the best episode of the season. Dembe didn’t have a single line in this episode, but he was integral and perfect in his role. He can certainly do heavy lifting and a lot of serious acting, but he can also say just as much with zero words. Hisham Tawfiq brings this really unique talent to the role of Dembe. For a second, I actually thought they might have to seriously injure Elizabeth until Dembe came to their aid. My favorite scene of the whole episode was Dembe coming to the rescue. All the characters are working toward the same goal (now that we know how Ressler really feels) but in various yet compelling ways. This season has found an excellent way to include every single character, in what is obviously it’s best story yet. Last season, my chief complaint was that some characters were underused, and it’s because they were all pointed toward the same plot. I’ve really been impressed with the way the story has been woven throughout this season. Liz and Red get themselves in a sticky situation, aided at the last second by Dembe. Ressler must testify at a hearing, and defend his reasons for not sharing information with the CIA.
This week on The Blacklist: A bounty is put on Liz’s head, forcing her and Red to team up with the FBI. “Arioch Cane” was no exception, as several plot threads pulled together, and it turned into one of the better installments of the season.
#THE BLACKLIST SEASON 5 EPISODE 11 TV#
It’s one of the most consistently intense and action packed shows on TV today. I’ve really been impressed with the level of intensity that The Blacklist has been able to maintain since the beginning.
