It is wild (simply wild!)

And Red or Elizabeth will finish it.
Because doesnt it always come down to Red and Liz?
Everything in between is just an interesting detour.
Which leads us to the meat of this finely loitering episode.
Until I realized that Iperhapsunderestimated what the show was willing to throw at her.
Then, yknow, I was pretty scared for my fav former Mossad agent.
LAWRENCE DEAN DEVLIN, NO.
Yes, it seems we are.
But justgo with itbecause theres no time to ask questions!
If his oxygen tank is full, he can be here in an hour, Red assures Cooper.
Even onThe Blacklist, I think threatening a dead man with a gun is a first.
Whichwouldexplain the unique predicament Samar currently finds herself in.
Its the most natural way.
Just putting you to sleep with my hand.
Devlin is really into doing things (like murder) thenaturalway.
He tells Samar he doesnt believe in god: Nature, thats my guy.
She tells him, Well have to agree to disagree.
I have an angel.
But not before stuffing a very sharp stick up her sleeve.
And so, his guy does his thing.
But on the bright side, its an entirely natural way to go likely what god intended for you.
Yeeeees, Samar girl, you tell him.
Fortunately, she is right, and Devlin starts passing out…
When Samar comes to, a tire iron is sticking out of her stomach.A tire iron.
Red is having slightly better luck in Costa Rica, because it would be hard to haveworseluck.
Through a series of benders, Smokey secured Raymond a coveted entry coin.
But once in, Red doesnt do so hot.
When she gets her hand through though, Devlin grabs it.
At first it seems like hes attacking her, but then it becomes clear that hes bloody which isconfusing.
Then theres growling; more confusing.
And then…we see the bear feet.
Devlin is being attackedby a bearagainst the side of the van.
That officially puts us into what one might calla time crunch.
But just as Aram finds one that looks terrifyinglyun-decomposed, he gets a phone call: its Samar.
He says between this field and the tower Devlins phone was pinging, theres only one river.
Its still a long shot, but Aram takes off in a car, and drives toward the river.
Eventually, realizing he doesnt really know where to go, he pulls over in desperation.
And then, I kid you not…
COMMERCIAL BREAK.
When we see them next, Aram is talking to Samar in a hospital room.
But were not getting off that easy.
Every day since then has been my best day because I have spent them with you.
I want to spend all my days with you.
Aram gets down on one knees, and asks Samar to marry him.
And knowing that she would have said yesand hopefully stillwillsay yeshe slips his grandmothers ring on her finger.
Thats not your only problem, pal.
Once in front of Red, he tells Liz, You do what youknowI dont want you to do.
You disappoint me and yet, somehow at the same time you impress me.
Apples and trees and all, I guess.
I suppose it was inevitable, our sprint to the finish, Red says.
After everything weve been through, it wont be long until one of us has it.
My throat closed up just writing about the proposal.
Thought still probably not as badass as Samar pulling a tire iron out of her own stomach.
Ive heard steroids make you penis shrink.
Have you found that to be the case?
Red to his future best friend.
