Well, that twist wasn't something I expected.
I mean, I knew they sent them to Union Station to give Keen the virus, etc.
But the whole, setting her up as a sleeper agent cause her mom was in the KGB, that was nice.

What I dont get is... they showed they have the list, so why are they still coming after Keen, which means going after Red....

cuz keen foolishly revealed herself to the cia director when trying to save red's life

they probably kept a file on her ever since red started working with her

but had no motive to really go after her until she threatened them with the fulcrum

Makes sense...
But dont they fear going after her = going after Red, which will result in the release of the file to the pub?
Cause she threatened the director, by saying she'll release it to the pub.

That episode was too predictable for this series... once Geno was introduced, it got ruined, they should have kept it out.
Also... Keen realising that Cabalt was 3 steps ahead of Red early in the programme was the KEY factor for him to re -
evaluate the scenario, but he fell into it, because... they know him down to the T, yet, he should have been better
prepared... he is smarter than that obvious trap... writers need to make it better.

God damn that ending though. Jesus that was good. I wonder if they'll find a way to clear Liz or if she'll become a criminal like red

they've never had issue with going after red

they went full scale after calling red's bluff of having the fulcrum (when they launched a missile at the oil rig)

red actually had them in a good position, where they suspected red of having the fulcrum but weren't 100% sure, this meant they were in a stalemate

but now that liz straight up brought the fulcrum to them, they can't revert back to playing nice and hoping that they won't release the fulcrum as long as they behave

they are now forced to act by discrediting liz (which red warned her about as soon as she revealed herself)

and they were successful, by pinning liz with the murder of a senator

Uh huh.

I mean, I do get it.
They feared Red would release it, so they played nice.
Now Keen released it, so lets just go after them all.
But I dont get why Red waited so long to pull off the move he did with the reporters... I mean he could've done so long ago? He didn't want to put others in danger is the only reason I can think of, but now he's trying to play more risky.


All in all quite a good show.
I wonder how next season will be... will they be hunting ppl on a blacklist or not... Cause that was the shows whole modo.

red never had the fulcrum before

liz got the last piece and assembled it right after red got shot then revealed it to the cabal

red would've liked to keep the fulcrum as a peace keeping measure, but since the cabal acted against liz, red was then forced to reveal the fulcrum

All this talk about Red being a sin eater.
I REALLY want to know what made him become a criminal in the first place.
