š“ Script 8:4 Elizabeth Keen (ā 1)
Brief (Where weāre at):
Red has put Liz āat the top of the Blacklist,ā out of āfear she may ā do something that ā she can never recover from.ā Thatās because she tried ā twice ā to blow him up using 16 ounces of Semtex, a military-grade plastic explosive she procured from the FBI supply by forging Aramās signature on a requisition form.
Liz is on a rampage after witnessing Red shoot her mother, Katarina Rostova. Katarina recorded her final discussion with Red on a phone message to Liz, which also identified Red (albeit crypticallly) as N-13, the elusive operative sought by numerous international intelligence agencies. Red had let the world think that Katarina was N-13, which resulted in a price being put on her head by the Townsend Organization. This means Red is likely in possession of a blackmail file, the Sikorsky Achive. As long as Townsend thought Katarina had it, it meant they would be looking for Katarina and not for Red. Once Katarina knew that N-13 was Red, he killed her to keep the secret. Liz played parts of the recording first for Cooper and then for Red; itās unclear if she played for them the part about N-13. However, Red must know that the recording includes that tidbit of information which may provide a clue to his true identity.
Lizās mission now is revenge. First she rigged the bomb to explode when Red opened the door of her car, but he was saved when he broke down in a fit of bloody coughing and had to be rushed to a public emergency room to save his life from the mysterious disease ailing him. When her first attempt to kill Red didnāt work, Liz enlisted Esi Jackson, who had once helped Liz search for Redās friend Ilya Koslov but had been intercepted by Red and compelled to work for him. Liz convinced Esi that Red would end up killing her when Esi was no longer of use to him. So, cashing in on the confidence Dembe had in her, Esi (and Liz) created a distraction that gave Esi the opportunity to attach the bomb to Redās bed. Only luck and quick thinking by Ressler saved Redās life. Ressler smashed a window and threw the bomb outside. It exploded, overturning Redās hospital bed and injuring both Red and Ressler, but not seriously. But Esi didnāt know that and reported back to Liz that both might be dead. Liz became emotional at the thought she might have killed Ressler.
After gleaning from Aram that Red had survived, she called Red to tell him āYou donāt have it in you to kill me, and you never will, and thatās why Iām gonna win.ā Later, she showed up at Resslerās apartment and was relieved to find him battered but alive:
Liz: Iām sorry.
Ressler: Well, you should be. You nearly killed me.
Liz: I know. And when I thought I had ā [ Sniffles ] ā nothing else mattered. Iām a fugitive againā and you have to come for me, but before you do, before I start running ā I need a rest. Even if itās just for one night. Will you let me do that?
[ Ressler lets her in ]

[ Flashback: ]
[ Liz appears at Resslerās apartment to check on how he came through the blast that she arranged in her attempt to kill Red. She also has a request: ]
Liz: Before I start running, I need a rest. Even if itās just for one night.
Ā
[ Liz rides in the back of a car, remembering the night before ]
[ Flashback: ]
[ Liz and Ressler kiss passionately and then make love, taking care on account of Resslerās injured back ]
[ In the car, Liz smiles dreamily. Her reflections continue ]
[ Flashback: ]
[ Itās morning. Ressler, still bandaged, wakes up to find Liz is dressed, but is looking around for something ]
Ressler: You know how this ends.
Liz: I canāt find my sock.
Ressler: Weāre gonna try and stop you.
Liz: Itās purple with little unicorns on it. Agnes thinks unicorns are good luck.
Ressler: Unicorn socks to protect against Reddington.
Liz: You got any better ideas?
Ressler: Yeah. Donāt go after him.
[ Ressler finds the sock by the pillow and hands it to her ]
Liz: Thanks for letting me stay.
Ā
[ Liz calls Esi Jackson ] [ Cellphone dialing ] [ Line rings ]
Liz: Iām texting you an address. Meet me there as soon as you can.
[ Cellphone beepsš
]
Ā
[ At the address Liz texted to Esi ]
Liz: A few years ago, I found out my husband was living a double life.
[ Doors open, revealing a large screen surveillance system monitoring the streets around the flat ]
Esi: Whoa.
Liz: Yeah. He had secrets. Lots of them. Including this apartment.
[ Liz pulls down a heavy duffle bag ] [ Groans ] [ She removes two large packets of bills and offers them to Esi ]
Liz: I thought maybe we could find something here that could help you out a little bit.
Esi: Me?
Liz: Yeah. Itās not much, but itāll get you out of the city.
[ Liz offers Esi the entire duffle ]
Liz: Go on, take it. Iāve already gotten you into enough trouble.
Esi: You do know we are gonna need more than that.
[ Liz plops the duffel down on the table. She acknowledges Esiās offer to continue working together ]
Liz: Weāre gonna need more of everything. Money. Weapons. People.
Esi: Do you have anybody in mind?
Liz: I have a list. First, I ā we ā Call everyone on it, and then we get my daughter.
[ Esi sees armed men streaming toward the apartment on the surveillance system ]
Esi: Weāve been made.
[ Liz suddenly sees, hanging on a chain, the washer Tom had used in lieu of an engagement ring to propose to her ]
[ Flashback: ]
[ Tom kneels down in front of then-blonde Liz. Chuckling, he slips the washer onto her finger ]
Tom: Elizabeth Keen, will you marry me?
[ She beams at him ]
Esi: Liz. We got to go. Now.
[ Liz grabs the keepsake and they leave in a rush ]
Ā
[ The unidentified armed men break into the apartment and search ]
ā Clear.
āā
[ Outside, Liz smashes the window of a vehicle ] [āØGlass shattersāØ]
[ Engine starts ] [ā”ļøTires screechā”ļø]
āā
[ Dembe enters the flat, followed by Red ]
Dembe: Weāre too late.
[ Red looks at the live feed of the garage and sees the pile of shattered glass from the broken car window. He shakes his head ]
Ā
[ Cooperās office ]
Cooper: I just spoke with Reddington. He says Keen just left a Kalorama address in a Ford Bronco. I want a BOLO on the car, not on Keen.
Aram: And when the cops find her in it?
Ressler: Weāll do what we can to protect her.
Agent Alina Park: Did she protect you when Reddington was in the hospital? She planted a bomb that nearly killed you.
Ressler: So itās okay to protect an actual killer like Reddington, but not one of our own? Look, what Keen almost did once is nothing compared to what Reddington does on a daily basis.
Aram: And yet, he put her name on the Blacklist.
Cooper: Reddington wants her found, not hurt. But given her overwhelming desire to hurt him, I donāt know that sheāll leave him any choice. Which is why we have to find her first.
Park: Iāll put out the BOLO.
Cooper: Before you do, I want to say one more thing. As fond as we are of Agent Keen, I believe sheās equally fond of us. Given that, it wouldnāt surprise me if she were to reach out, solicit our help to find Reddington. If and when she does that, I know how tempting itāll be to give her the help that she needs, but that would be a mistake. It would make matters worse for her, not better. So if she does call or show up on your doorstep, I need to know. Now Park, get on the BOLO. Aram, Ressler ā Put eyes on Agnes. We may not know where Agent Keen is, but we do know sheās in the city, and sheās not gonna leave it without her daughter.
Ā
[ Liz find Redās computer whiz kid, Tadashi Ito, working at a laptop at a table in a busy food court ]
[ Indistinct conversations ]
Tadashi: Liz, hi! What are you doing here?
Liz: I donāt have much time, Tadashi, so Iām gonna get to the point. I want you to come and work for me.
Tadashi: Thanks, but I already have a job. Itās got a great health plan. As long as I do it well, Mr. Reddington wonāt kill me.
Liz: Reddington is dying. Heāll deny it, but itās true. And when heās gone, Iāll be in a position to give you all the work youāll ever need because Iām getting everything. Call Marvin Gerard, heāll confirm it. One more thing.
[ Liz shows Tadashi a list ]
Liz: These are all of Reddingtonās associates that Iām aware of. I need their phone numbers.
Tadashi: Iām sorry, but I donāt have them.
Liz: I know. But you can hack them.
Ā
[ Tadashi sits next to Red in the back of his car ]
Tadashi: She said you were sick. Like pushing daisies sick.
Red: Aspirants are all the same. A little bit desperate, irrational, always impatientā They never wait for the body to cool.
Tadashi: I told her I was with you hot or cold, but since you mention it, are you, you know, cooling?
Red: Like a lion in winter I am both diminished and dangerous ā As anyone who offers to help Elizabeth will quickly find out.
Tadashi: [ Breathes sharply ] Exactly how would you define help? Because she had this listā
Ā
[ Liz makes some phone calls ⦠]
Liz: I know itās a shock, but itās true.
Max Ruddiger, Redās explosives expert: Raymond is a traitor?
Liz: A Russian spy codenamed N-13. Heās been playing us for years.
[ Maxās phone beepsš
]
Max: One sec. Sorry. [ Line beepsš
] Hello?
Red: Ruddiger, have you spoken with Elizabeth Keen?
Max: Yeah. Iām on with her right now. She says youāre a traitor. Not sure to which country.
Red: Ruddiger, please. Iām loyal to principle, not country. And the first principle Iām loyal to is loyalty. Do I have yours?
āā
Heddie: Now hold on, you gotta back up. Say that again for me.
Liz: He cut a deal.
Heddie: Yeah, a deal. What are you talking about? A deal with who?
Liz: With the FBI.
āā
[ The next call is to Mr Brimley, Redās creative torture impresario, who is brushing a horned goatš ]
Brimley: Are you telling me that son of a bitch is a snitch?
Liz: Yep. Which is why I want you to come and work for me.
Brimley: Iāll tell you who I wonāt work for, and itās that turncoat, that quisling, thatā [ Phone beepsš
] Hold that thought. Cellphone beepsš
] [ Goatšbleats ] Someoneās ears were burning?
Red: Youāve spoken with Elizabeth.
Brimley: Pardon my French, but what a Yenta!
Liz: I can hear you both.
Red: Spreading rumors, are we?
Liz: Telling truths.
Brimley: Oy oy oy. I think I hit conference instead of call waiting.
Red: Whoās next on your list?
Liz: Wouldnāt you like to know?
āā
Liz: Heās the past, Morgan. Iām the futureā [ *Click* ]
[ One by one, Liz is crossing names off her list ]
āā
Liz: Thatās right, Tony, he works for Moscow.
āā
Liz: Sure, Glen, Iāll hold. ā¦
āā
Liz: No, no, no, Chuck, before you take the other call, just hear me out. I meanā Chuck?
[ Liz sighs ] [ The last name has been crossed off ]
Ā
[ Red and Dembe are in the industrial kitchen of one of Redās properties ]
Dembe: I got a message from our friend in the East. He wants to meet.
Red: He wonāt be easily appeased. Put him off for the moment. Iām fighting a war on one front. Iām not sure I have the strength to fight it on two.
[ Cellphone buttons clicking ]
Ā
[ Aram and Ressler walk together in the hall of the apartment building where Lizās friend, Merritt Marks, has been taking care of Agnes ]
Aram: So youāre saying you wouldnāt tell Mr. Cooper.
Ressler: Iām saying it depends.
Aram: Depends on what?
Ressler: Iām just saying, if she did reach out to you, if you actually saw her, you might think differently.
Aram: Did she reach out to you?
Ressler: No, she didnāt. But if she didā Iām just saying it might make a difference.
āā
[ Knock on door ] [ Door creaks lightly and opens ]
Merritt Marks: Can I help you?
Ressler: Mrs. Marks? [ Holds up badge ] Weāre with the FBI. We work with Elizabeth Keen.
Merritt: Is everything alright?
Aram: We understand youāre looking after her daughter. Has she arranged a time to pick her up?
Ā
[ Redās kitchen. As a treatment for his mysterious disease, Red is preparing a mix of pills from the 10 or so bottles of prescription medications arrayed in front of him ]
[ Door opens; Dembe enters ]
Red: In the old days, drug cocktails were decidedly more appealing.
Dembe: I spoke to our friend in the East.
Red: Ah. Thank you. Thatās a relief.
Dembe: He expects you in Moscow the day after tomorrow. And it gets worse.
Red: Worse than Moscow at this time of yearā at any time of year?
[ Pills rattle ] [ Red takes the meds with a glass of water ]
Red: Mmm. Oh! [ Glass taps lightly ]
[ Dembe hand Red a large manila folder. Red pulls out a thick folder with a large seal printed on the front: āPermanent Select Committee on Intelligence: House of Representativesā
Red: Ah, well. Looks like the second front has officially engaged.
Ā
[ Liz and Esi sit in Lizās parked car ]
Esi: No one said yes?
Liz: Not even an āIāll think about it.ā
Esi: Is there anyone else?
Liz: There is one other person, and heās worth more than everyone on this list combined. If I could get him, weād have a fighting chance.
Esi: Whoās that?
Liz: Marvin Gerard. Reddingtonās lawyer. He may not know where all the bodies are buried, but I think he knows where a lot of the money is kept.
Esi: You got to assume Reddingtonās already contacted him.
Liz: Which is why I need to talk to him in person. I need you to follow him and tell me when heās somewhere safe to talk. Meanwhile, Iām gonna make arrangements to pick up Agnes. I canāt believe they pledged their lives, fortunes, and not-so-sacred honor to a traitorous sociopath. Are they all really that scared?
Esi: Itās fear.
Liz: Take this burner. Itās clean. Call me when you find a safe location.
Esi: About Agnes? Be careful. You know theyāre gonna be watching her.
Liz: [ Whispering ] Yeah.
Ā
[ Red is riding in his Mercedes, talking on the phone ]
Cooper: [On phone] We found the Bronco. Abandoned in a parking garage.
Red: Have you gone outside the Task Force for help on this?
Cooper: We can clean up our own mess.
Red: Evidence would suggest otherwise, Harold.
Cooper: Broadcasting her fugitive status would ruin any chance Elizabeth has of putting this genie back in a bottle.
Red: Is she the genie or am I the genie? Iām confused.
Cooper: You know what I find confusing? The tape Elizabeth played me of you and Katarina where she accuses you of being a Russian spy.
Red: Oh, by all means, Harold, letās take what Brunhilda says on that tape as gospel.
Cooper: N-13. What does that mean to you?
Red: It means you need to get your priorities straight. You picked up the telephone and now weāre talking. When was the last time you talked with Agent Keen? Elizabeth Keen is your target. Not me.
[ Phone clicks shut ]
āā
[ Red points toward a man walking on the sidewalk ]
Red: There he is.
[ Dembe pulls over ] [ Red motions to the man to get in, which he does ] [ Horns honk in distance ] [ The manās name is Rakitin ]
Red: Iām not an errand boy. I wonāt be ordered about.
Rakitin: Our friend has concerns about Keen.
Red: Elizabeth Keen is not to be touched. I accept our friendās concern, nothing more.
Rakitin: Youāre familiar with Scuti Global?
Red: Of course. Scuti Global Itās become quite the profit center.
Rakitin: Which it will continue to be as long as I have their trust.
Red: [ Chuckling ] And youāre a little concerned that trust may be broken now that your name has surfaced as part of this House Intelligence Committee investigation.
Rakitin: Before you go to Moscow, weād like you to make this go away.
Red: I see. So I came here to be interrogated and solicited.
Rakitin: I like to think you came here to do the right thing.
Red: [ Laughs ]

[ Merritt Marks drops Agnes off at her ballet lesson ]
Merritt: Oh! Alright. So, go and change. And Iāll be right in.
[ Agnes runs off ] [ Door closes ]
āā
[ Ressler and Aram walk up behind Merritt ]
Merritt: Is this really necessary?
Ressler: Well, you said that Liz didnāt tell you when she was gonna come and pick up Agnes, so we have to assume that she could pick her up anytime.
Merritt: So youāre just gonna follow us everywhere we go?
Aram: We donāt want to frighten Agnes, but we have to find Liz.
Merritt: So you can take her away from her daughter?
Aram: Thatās the last thing we want.
Merritt: Then promise me you wonāt.
[ No response ]
Merritt: [ Scoffs ]
āā
[ Merritt walks into the changing room to get Agnes. She sees Agnesās shoes behind the drapes of a changing stall ]
Merritt: Hey, girl. Need any help?
[ Merritt opens the drapes. Standing behind Agnes is Liz ]
Merritt: What are you doing here?
Liz: Just admiring my beautiful girl.
Merritt: There are agents in the lobby.
Agnes: I already told her.
Liz: How about you go to class and Iāll tell Merritt about our plan, okay?
Agnes: Okay, Mommy. See you tonight?
Liz: Yes, you will. I canāt wait. [ Hug ]
[ Agnes scampers away]
Merritt: Your plan? What plan?
[ Lizās cellphone chimes ⨠] [ A text from Esi reads: āEyes on Gerard. Louās Dinerā with an address ]
Liz: [To Merritt ]Youāre working the night shift at the hospital tonight, right?
Merritt: Liz, the FBI is following me.
Liz: Not anymore. Not if you do exactly as I say. Now, listen carefully.
Ā
[ Louās Diner ] [ Birds chirping ]
[ Inside the restaurant, Marvin Gerard sits in a booth across from Skip Hadley, discussing accounts Skip has prepared on an electronic tablet ]
Marvin: Even if Reddington liked you, which I suspect he doesnāt. And even if he trusted you, which I am positive he doesnāt, he wouldnāt hesitate to kill you if you showed him this.
Skip: I thought you wanted me to organize the accounts.
Marvin: I did. But digitally? He insists on analog accounting. A book. A ledger. Something offline.
[ Liz walks up ]
Liz: Marvin.
Marvin: The answer is no.
Liz: [ To Skip ] Hi. Iām Liz.
Skip: Skip. I know who you are. Sort of a legend around the office.
Marvin: I know who you approached.
Liz: Mm.
Marvin: Brimley. Heddie. Ruddiger. Morgan and Chuck. And I also know that they all turned you down.
Liz: They turned me down because they donāt know the truth. You do. You know heās sick. You know that when heās gone Iāll be in power because you wrote the will.
Marvin: Thatās right. You wait, you get everything. So wait.
Liz: I canāt.
Marvin: Why, because he killed your mother? Youāre declaring war to defend the honor of a woman who abandoned you as a child and murdered your grandfather.
Liz: If you help me, you write your own ticket. Weāll be partners. 50/50. I could make you ridiculously rich.
Marvin: Redās my friend.
Liz: Sure, if you can help him out. But if you canāt, youāre out. Heās not loyal, heās transactional. You really think if he were sitting where you are now, knowing that the balance of power was shifting in my direction, he would really choose you over me?
[ Cup thumps lightly ]
Skip: Maybe you should think about it.
Marvin: Law review at Yale. Moron.
Liz: He seems pretty smart to me.
Marvin: Alright. Iāll think about it.

Tadashi: Hey. Is this making the move?
Red: Heaven forbid. Tadashi, say hello to Guinevere.
Tadashi: Hi. Personally, I like a good cherub.
Red: Taste aside, Tadashi will make the task ahead of you quick and easy.
Guinevere: The task. What task?
Red: Erasing certain information from the computer server of the House Committee on Intelligence. Tadashi has a skillset and, as counsel, you have the access. As I said, quick and easy.
Guinevere: What makes you think I would do something like that?
Red: Danielle Steel. You have 16 hardcovers. No one has that many romance novels and wants to live alone in Cleveland Park.
Guinevere: And if I say no?
Red: Keep up, Gwen. Tomorrow youāll go to work as usual, except that when youāre alone and the moment provides, youāll contact Tadashi who will walk you through the steps of inserting the thumb drive into the server which will contaminate and eliminate the data on said server.
Guinevere: Absolutely not. I would be fired. I would go to prison for treason.
Red: Not if it was a mistake.
Tadashi: The malware kitās designed to mimic liquid contamination, a leak in the gasket around the head assembly and corrosion on the platter surface.
Red: Youāll spill a cup of coffee to cover our tracks.
Guinevere: And Iād be fired.
Red: Yes. Walking out of your old life and into your better life.

Red: Go on, have a look. I guarantee itās a plot twist worthy of āPassionās Promise.ā
Guinevere: What is it?
Red: A home on a beach. Money in the bank. A happy ending to your story. If youāre smart enough to take it.
[ Guinevere hands the material back ] [ Paper rustles ]
Guinevere: Please leave.
Red: Guinevere, Tadashi tells me youāre something of a scofflaw. He says you havenāt paid all your taxes. Some, but not all.
Guinevere: [ Gasps ]
Red: Not even close to all inā What?
Tadashi: Four years federal, three state.
Guinevere: My mother is sick. She doesnāt have insurance.
Red: Listen, donāt get me wrong. I couldnāt be more understanding and supportive of a righteous tax dodgeā Or not righteous [ Chuckling ] for that matter. But I doubt the FBI will share my sympathies, which is why I suggest you carry out the task ahead. What do you say? Comedy or tragedy? How this story ends is entirely up to you.

Aram: Agnes. My name is Aram. I donāt know if you remember me, but, um, I have known you since you were born. In fact, I was at your christening. You couldnāt have even been aā a few months old, so if you did remember me that would be, like, super cool, orā or weird probably.
Agnes: [ Giggles ]

[ Aram takes on the task of keeping Agnes occupied ]
Aram: Okay, while the grownups figure out all the boring grownup stuff, you and I are going to play a paper airplane contest. Sound good?
Agnes: I suppose.
Aram: You suppose? You suppose? [ Enthusiastically: ] Thereās no supposing. The goal is to figure out who can fly the most paper airplanes into that garbage can. You do know how to make a paper airplane, right?
[ Agnes shakes her head ānoā ]
Aram: Okay. Thatās alright. Iāll make them. You fly them. Sound good?
[ Ressler gets off the elevator ]
Aram: Here we go. Okay.
[ Aram begins folding paper airplanes ]

[ Resslerās cellphone chimesāØ] [ Itās a text message from Liz with a shopping list of foods Agnes likes and her favorite tv shows {
[ Phone rings ] [ Beepsš
]
Ressler: Ressler.
Liz: How is she?
Ressler: This text. Itās from you.
Liz: Is she okay?
Ressler: Sure looks like it. [ Chuckling ] Her and Aram are making a mess of the office.
[ Liz is calling from the train station ]
Liz: I got Marvin Gerard to turn. So I have the resources I need to get out.
[ A voice on the P.A. is heard in the background ]
Ressler: What about Agnes?
Liz: You were right. Being on the run is no place for her.
Ressler: And the mistake your mother made?
Liz: I guess Iām more like her than I care to admit.
Ressler: So these lists of TV shows and foodā Theyāre what Agnes likes.
Liz: And the address is a self-storage unit. Thereās a locker there with her favorite clothes and books.
Ressler: Sheās gonna be okay.
Liz: Promise?
Ressler: I do. Until youāre back, sheās gonna have lots of doting uncles.
[ā”ļøTrain brakes screechā”ļø]
Liz: I got to go.
Ressler: No, you donāt.
Liz: I do. And this time I have to mean it.
[ Cellphones beepš

[ Ressler knocks on the glass by Aramās workstation, beckoning Aram ]
Aram: Oh. [ To Agnes ] Iāll be right back.
[ Aram walks over to Ressler ]
Aram: Whatās up?
Ressler: Keen called me. I couldnāt run a trace, but I did record it.
Aram: Liz called you?
Ressler: Look, I donāt know from where, but there were some muffled sounds in the background. I need you to enhance the audio.
Aram: Okay. I may not be able to beat a 6-year-old in a paper plane contest ā Seriously, sheās destroying me, sheās like a- sheās like a mini Chuck Yeager ā But I do know that when you say āKeen called meā what youāre really saying is āKeen called me again.ā
Ressler: Look, I know what Cooper saidā
Aram: He didnāt āsay,ā he ordered.
Ressler: Yeah, but I told you, if you saw her youād think differently.
Aram: You saw her?! When? Where? Was it at your apartment? Please. Please tell me it wasnāt at your apartment. Was it at your apartment?
[ Ressler gives Aram his cellphone ]
Ressler: [ Sternly ] The audio. Enhance it.
Ā
[ Cooperās office. Red is still there. Ressler and Aram enter ]
Ressler: We know where Keen is.
Aram: The Silver Spring train station.
Ressler: She called me to ask about Agnes. There was noise in the background. Aram was able to enhance it.
[ Ressler plays the enhanced audio: ]
Woman on P.A.: ā now arriving on Track One, the Blue Ridge, en route to Washington, this is the Silver Spring stop.
Cooper: Iāll inform Montgomery County PD. You get a TAC team and roll out.
Red: Any fingers crossed, Donald? Toes?
Ressler: [ Annoyed ] Whatās got your goat?
Red: Itās not a goat, itās a wild goose. The one I fear you have us all chasing.
Ressler: Now, whatās that supposed to mean?
Red: Youāre a good agent. But I wonder if maybe youāre an even better friend.
Ressler: You think Iām helping her. I mean, that this is some sort of a trick, a false lead to draw us one way while she goes the other.
Red: I think itās a possibility.
Ressler: [ Chuckles ] Thatās rich coming from you. When the only reason she may get away is because she turned one of your people. Marvin Gerardās giving her all the resources she needs.
Red: Elizabeth told you that?
Ressler: She did. And I believe her.
Red: I believe you do. Thatās what worries me.
[ Red walks past Ressler and leaves ]
āā
[ Cooper motions for Aram to close the office door ]
Cooper: Well?
Aram: Well what?
Cooper: Is there anything to it?
Ressler: Well, she trusts me. And thatās not a problem. I mean, itās why we have a lead.
Cooper: Has there been other contact?
Ressler: Well, she called me twice, and, um, she came to my apartment.
Aram: [ Quietly ] Called it.
Cooper: Weāll talk about this when we get back from the station.
Ressler: What do you mean āweā?
Cooper: This is clearly complicated. For all of us. If this is a chance to apprehend Elizabeth, it appears we may need to give each other the strength to do it.

[ The Silver Spring Maryland train station ]
Woman on P.A.: Please allow passengers to exit the train before you board.

[ Cooper, Ressler and Park search the train station for Liz, but come up short ]
Park: Sheās gone.
Cooper: You saw the security feeds?
Park: She was here for over an hour. Along with Esi Jackson.
Ressler: But the trainās still here. Maybe theyāre already on it.
Park: Liz didnāt get on. The feeds show her leaving the station.
Ressler: When?
Park: What time did she call you?
Ressler: 11:33.
Park: Two minutes later, she walked out the front door.
Ressler: Why would she come to train station and not get on a train?

Cooper: Oh, my God.
Park: What?
[ Cooper turns to leave. Park and Ressler follow ]

[ The Post Office. Aram is holding a stopwatch ]
[ Beepsš
]
Aram: 30 seconds. Halfway to a new world record.
[ Agnes is walking from one pile of papers on the floor to another ]
Aram: Can she go all the way without putting a toe on the floor?
[ Cellphone ringing ]
āŖ Woul way down āŖ
[ Cellphone beepsš
]
Aram: Mr. Cooper, did you find her?
Cooper: [ On phone ] No. The train was a diversion.
Aram: A diversion from what? Why would she want you to go there?
Cooper: So she could get her daughter.
Aram: But her daughterās right here.
Cooper: Yes. And Agent Keen just swiped into the Post Office.
[ Elevator door opens. Itās Liz ]
Agnes: Mommy!
[ Agnes runs to Liz who lifts her up and hugs her ]
Aram: Iāll have to call you back.
[ Cellphone beepsš

Liz: [ Laughs ] Oh, look at you. Oh, my gosh, you busy bee.
Agnes: I got all the way across without touching the floor.
Liz: All the way?
Aram: [ Seriously ] A new world record.
Liz: We got to go, honey.
Aram: Can I try it one more time?
Liz: Iām afraid not, honey. Go get your shoes on, okay? Go on.
[ Agnes prances off ]
Liz: [ To Aram ] I saw you in the parking lot. The way you talked to her. And now this ā thank you.
Aram: I didnāt do it for you.
Liz: I have to take her now.
[ Liz pulls back her jacket to show her gun ]
Liz: And you have to let us go.
Aram: Who are you?
Liz: You know who I am and why I have to do this.
Aram: You forged my signature to get 16 ounces of Semtex. You nearly killed Mr. Reddington and Ressler. I knew who you were, Liz. But I donāt recognize who youāve become.
[ Agnes returns ]
Liz: Say thank you to Aram, honey.
[ Agnes gives Aram a hug ]
[ šØAlarm blaringšØ ]
Liz: The security sectionās already been alerted. We need a two-minute head start to get out through Level C. Two minutes. Thatās all I ask. [ To Agnes, whispering ] Come on. Letās go. Letās go.
[ Liz and Agnes dash off, leaving Aram standing there ]

[ Red, Marvin Gerard and Skip Hadley sit around a small table in a basement. Dembe stands nearby ]
Marvin: Sure, I said Iād think about throwing in with her. And I did. For all of two seconds. As a courtesy. Then I turned her down.
Skip: Thatās true, Mr. Reddington. I was there. I saw it.
Red: You saw it.
Skip: Yes, sir, I did.
Red: Did you also see Marvin buy airline tickets to Switzerland?
Marvin: Of course he didnāt. Because I didnāt buy airline tickets to Switzerland.
Red: My mistake. You bought tickets to Switzerland and booked a suite at the Kupfer Grand in Zurich.
[ Red hands Marvin a copy of the paperwork ]
Marvin: [ Scoffs ] You donāt see it. Itās staring you in the face and youāre so puffed up with anger that you donāt see it.
Red: Enlighten me.
Marvin: My name. Itās on the reservation. You think Iād throw in with Keen and make getaway plans using my own name? That Iād steal from you without even attempting to hide it?
Red: I think you never forgave me for the three years you spent in prison.
Marvin: I went to prison because I was loyal to you!
Red: Yes. And now that you know my days are numbered, your loyalty has shifted. I understand. Youāre just looking ahead, playing the long game.
Marvin: Youāre the one whoās being played. Getting you to hurt me is her way of getting you to hurt yourself.
Red: Except I wonāt be hurt, not with the adorable Skip stepping up to fill the void.
Marvin: Iām sorry, what?
Red: [ To Dembe ] Has Marvin been locked out of the accounts?
Dembe: As of 20 minutes ago.
Red: Excellent.
Marvin: Youāre making a huge mistake.
Red: Please, letās bring Skip up to speed and have his biometrics synced for account access in Nevis and the Caymans.
Skip: Mr. Reddington, Iām- Iām honored, but Marvin ā I promise you he wasnāt disloyal.
Red: Yes, well, weāll see about that.
[ Brimley enters with the goatš ]
Brimley: Youāre in luck. Yesterday was Benjiās spa day. Heās shampooed, rubbed, rested, and ready.

[ Aram is sitting, his head down and hands clasped ]
Aram: You were right. It is different.
Ā
[ Liz is riding in the back of a vehicle with Agnes, talking on the phone to Esi ]
Liz: Anything. Contacts. Safe houses. She even mentioned an asset named Mr. French. Whatever resources of my motherās you can find, weāre gonna need them. You, too, thanks, Esi.
[ Cellphone beepsš

Agnes: Aramās nice.
Liz: Yeah, he is. The nicest.
Agnes: Will we ever see him again?
Liz: I donāt know, honey. I hope so. I justā donāt know.

[ The basement ] [ In the background: Marvin screaming, goatšbleats ]
Dembe: [ To Red ] To meet our friend as scheduled, we have to be in the air free now within an hour.
Red: Iām not leaving without an answer.
Dembe: Tadashi did his job. The files have been erased.
Red: Besides you, Marvin is my oldest colleague.
[ Blow lands ] [ Marvin screaming ] [ Goatšbleats ] [ Screaming continues ]
Dembe: I want to ask you a question. When I do, I need you to give me an honest answer.
Red: Of course.
Dembe: Did you want Elizabeth to see you shoot her mother? Knowing that if she did, it would send her to a place so dark she would never go back to her old life.
Red: Why would I ever do that?
Dembe: Because you live in that dark place. And she canāt take over your empire without living there, too. You mock the FBI for being conflicted about arresting someone they love, but you love her, too, and Iām not sure you want her arrested, either.
Red: I never said I wanted her arrested. But I do want her found.
Dembe: You can see what itās done ā You keeping so much from her. Itā Itās hardened her. Made her worthy of the Blacklist. What I want to know is if this was your plan all along.
Red: I ā didnāt ā I didnāt have a plan.

[ Liz and Agnes are flying in a private plane ]
Liz: You sure I can afford this?
[ Skip Hadley is in the plane with them ]
Skip Hadley: Iāve told you 10 times already.
Liz: I know. Iām sorry. Iām just having a hard time believing it.
Skip: 35 million. Thatās how much we transferred out of Reddingtonās account.
Liz: 35 million.
Skip: Yeah. In euros. Thatās 41 million in dollars. So, yeah, this I think you [ Chuckling ] can afford.
Liz: [ Sighs ]

Liz: Youāre wrong about Marvin Gerard.
Red: [ On phone ] Elizabeth, for someone looking to go off the grid, you continue to be quite chatty.
Liz: Suisse Capital. You had one account. Now you have none.
Red: What does this have to do with Marvin?
Liz: And all this time I thought you knew how to think like a criminal.
Red: Skip Hadley.
Liz: My knight in shining armor.
[ Skip lifts his glass to Liz ]
āŖ And I will drive past your house āŖ
Liz: Marvin was my last hope. When he turned me down, I thought I was finished. No money, no support. It was over.
[ Flashback: ]
[ Skip runs up to Liz ]
Skip: Hey.
Liz: But thenā
[ Flashback: ]
Skip: Heās in the bathroom so I only have a minute but, uhā Iām in.
āŖ One way or another āŖ
Liz: [ On phone, to Red ] I thought using Marvinās real name to book the plane tickets and hotel room might be a red herring that someone clever would detect. But I guess Iāll have to try it on someone clever to find out.
Red: As my third grade teacher Mr. Threet used to say ā One swallow doesnāt mean spring is here.
Liz: Yeah, but 35 million euros sure feels like spring break.
[ Beepsš

[ Red rushes into the torture chamber. Marvin is sitting on the floor, shirtless, bruised and bloody. His hands are tied. The goatšis chewing on a shirt ]
Red: Oh, my God.
Brimley: Weāre almost there.
[ Red gets down by Marvin and wraps his coat around him ]
Red: Marvin, I am so sorry. Will you ever forgive me? [ To Brimley: ] Is he alright?
Brimley: Should be fine. Though Benji did go a touch Hai Karate. Iām guessing it was his aftershave.
Red: Smells like grapefruit. Or blood orange. Is it blood orange?
Marvin: Go to hell, Raymond.
Red: I think itās blood orange.
[ Red unties Marvin and grabs a blanket and wraps it around him ]
Red: Oh! There. Okay.

[ Cooperās office. Ressler and Aram are there ]
Cooper: Agent Keen played you both. She played on your feelings for her. As an agent. A friend. A mother. She used you.
Ressler: Yes, she did.
Cooper: Given that, you should recuse yourselves from the case.
Aram: We agree. Which is why we prepared our letters of resignation.
[ Aram lays an envelope on Cooperās desk ]
Ressler: The Task Force has one job nowā To bring Keen in. And weāve proven that weāre not up to that job.
Cooper: You both agree this is for the best?
Ressler: We do.
Cooper: As do I. But if I ask you to leave thenā if Iām honest, Iād have to as well.
Aram: Why? Youāve done nothing to compromise this investigation.
Cooper: No, but Iāve felt like compromising it. Iāve wanted it to be compromised. Would I have taken Agent Keen into custody if sheād been at the train station? Yes, I would have. Was I relieved that I didnāt have to ā Youāre damn right I was. Was I angry that she tricked us into going there so she could come here to get her daughter ā absolutely. Am I glad theyāve been reunited, of course I am.
Aram: So ā what do we do now?
Cooper: I tell you what weāre not gonna do ā Let total strangers go after one of our own.
[ Cooper takes the envelope with the resignation letters and puts it in his desk drawer ]
Ressler: I do not look forward to having Reddington find out that we let her slip through our fingers once again.
Cooper: I spoke to him just before you came up here. I doubt heāll do much gloating. It seems he misjudged Marvin Gerard.
Ressler: Yeah, Keen told me he flipped.
Cooper: So youād tell Reddington. So heād empower Gerardās number twoā Who turns out to be in her pocket.
Aram: When you say empoweredā
Cooper: Reddington gave him account access. Which he used to transfer 35 million euros to Elizabeth.

Ressler: So Keen used me to steal Reddingtonās money. [ Chuckles ] It feels strangely, uh, therapeutic.
Aram: This is, uh, all well and good, but seriously, what if we donāt catch her? What if our concern for her gets in the way and she succeeds and kills Mr. Reddington?

Red: I did my part.
Eastern Friend: Our friends at Scuti Global are quite pleased.

Eastern Friend: Well, perhaps this will interest you. Fresh from the archive.
[ The Eastern Friend places a thumb drive on the table ]
[ They switch to speaking in English ]
Red: What interests me is why after nearly 30 years you suddenly act as if I work for you. I donāt.
Eastern Friend: We know about Keen. What sheās saying. That youāre N-13.
Red: An allegation no one believes.
Eastern Friend: A fact no one knows is true. We must do whatever we can to keep it that way.
Red: I flew 15 hours so I could look you in the eye and tell you what I told Rakitin ā Elizabeth Keen is off limits.
Eastern Friend: And I asked you to fly here so I could look you in the eye and tell you I agree.

ā« Ruins (feat. Ćsta Fanney Sigurưardóttir)
By aYia[ Full lyrics unavailable as of 2/1/2021, however, this is offered at the link: ]
A thumping, eerie, dark wave track that creates a sense of urgency, tension, and anxiety to the very core. āRuinsā consists of minimal synth melodies, a guttural pounding bass line and twitching, creepy overtones. This looming tune is then glazed to perfection with the ghostly breathy vocals of poetess Ćsta Fanney Sigurưardóttir.
The songās lyrics reflect the suspense created by the production itself, being about āthe abstract brutal truth of our surreal existence,ā according to Ćsta. āThere is a long tension of a looming danger, bad mistakes that lead astray,ā she continues. āYou are sailing down the river of bad luck, resistance is useless against the stream, you have to learn how to use it, to bend it, to turn it in the other direction. Not by fighting it, but by fooling it.ā
