As of one television-hour ago, Raymond Reddington is officiallyontoElizabeth Keen, his maybe-fake-not-daughter.
His maybe-fake-not-daughter is onto him too… Not until Reddington was finally caught at the beginning of this season, at least.
And more importantly,its answered.

Sure a jury of Reds peers decide that he is innocent (!!!)
I knowatruth, she corrects him.
But she certainly has a few more puzzle pieces to work with.
And, nowso do we.
MINISTER D, NO.

After the pulse-poundingdrug bladder deliveryof the first hour, this episode offers a welcome return to confusion-but-chill-about-it.
So thats a yikes all around!
But at least the Post Office is moving quickly.
And newly-minted rule breaker Ressler is acting mighty chill about the fact that he could potentially perjure himself.
Liz says if something bad happens to him because of this, shell never forgive herself.
They make…meaningful eye contact.
And Ressler sure does perjure himself!
On the stand, Ressler answers Simas questions and provides background about Reddintons notorious (alleged) treason.
A secret KGB communication that was intercepted corroborated the assumption hat Reddington fed the information to the Russians.
Sima gets a look on his face: And is Raymond Reddington in the courtroom today?
Ressler pauses…
…and pauses…
…and pause…
And says yes: Raymond Reddington there.
You know what else was possible?
That I was framed by Katarina Rostova.
Ressler rushes it to the courtroom, and Judge Wilkins admits it into evidence.
She tells Fitch that Reddington knows everything and hes taken Masha.
And because I love his daughtermydaughter, she finishes.
At the Post Office, Liz listens to a copy of the tape.
Katarina took someone from me too, Liz tells him.
Thanks to your tape, I think she just gave him back to me.
Uhhhhh, sweet sentiment my dude, but thats not even a little bit true.
No, Dembe lies, making himself the secret keeper fortwoReddingtons now.
A FEW LOOSE ENDS:
He loaned me money, I paid him backis that a crime?
To do business with a wanted fugitive and not report it?
Yeah, thats a whole lotta crimes.
I did not expect these episodes to be so Ressler-centric, but I wasinto it.
Do you have a point or are you just being pointlessly adorable?
With Aram, its always adorable AND with a point.
Whywouldanyone do that???
Are they…doing…that??
Are they doing…the thing…with Katarina…and Reddington?
Do you know what I mean???
Are they??
?
