"The Blacklist" fall finale gets more intense as the plot gets twisted on the identity of Liz's (Megan Boone) real father. A major spoiler has been dropped as the official trailer for episode 8 of "The Blacklist" season 4 titled "Dr. Adrian Shaw: Conclusion" seems to tease another identity on Liz' father, other than Alexander Kirk (Ulrich Thomsen). Could Red (James Spader) really be the father of Liz?
The promo video for "The Blacklist" fall finale highlighted that after four seasons, the answer fans and Liz, for that matter, have been waiting for will finally be revealed in the upcoming episode 8 of "The Blacklist" season 4. Towards the end of the clip, fans can see Kirk was asking Red, "Are you her father?"
Things are heating up at "The Blacklist" as the clip entices the fans to look forward to Red's ultimate response to Kirk's question. The trailer ended with how Red responded to Kirk, where the former did not directly answer but just gave another question as his reply. The fall finale of "The Blacklist" is yet to unveil the truth about the identity of Liz' father.
To make things more complicated, "The Blacklist" fall finale may not reveal just yet the real identity of Liz' father and leave it as a cliffhanger for fans to look forward to when the series returns next year.
Meanwhile, the synopsis for "The Blacklist" season 4 episode 8 titled "Dr. Adrian Shaw: Conclusion" says that Red (James Spader) is forcing Dr. Shaw to give a tip regarding the location of a former patient. Also, Liz will continue to struggle with the implications of her relation to Alexander Kirk. Meanwhile, Mr. Kaplan (Susan Blommaert) will arrive at a crucial realization regarding her future.
In addition, "The Blacklist" has been known to have a tradition of eliminating its villains during its ten-episode mark, Cartermatt noted. As the show nears that mark, and episodes are now revolving around how Red can take down Kirk, does it point to a possible demise of Alexander Kirk in the upcoming episode 10?
"The Blacklist" season 4 episode 8 titled "Dr. Adrian Shaw: Conclusion" will air on Thursday, Nov. 10 at 10 p.m. on NBC.
