| Who saw it? What do you think? It got my attention....the only thing I didn't like - they played the dog-lying-down-on-the-despairing-human's-lap card...damn them |

| I liked it. Im not a fan of cop stuff - but this was interesting enough for me to look forward to next week's.
Interesting how the hubs has some secrets.
So are they hinting that her father is James Spader - or someone else. I was a bit confused there | |

| I think her husband was his contact.. I think James's character hired her "husband" to get all the information on her that he has... I am guessing her "husband" owed some favors which is why he had no problem having the guy go in there and pretty much kill him...
and I think he did it to get the reaction from her... cause she is def not going anywhere because she wants to know WTF is going on...
I don't think he is her dad, but I am thinking maybe her dad was involved with him or a dirty cop or something along those lines.. and she was likely kidnapped or something as a young child and that was where her scar came from... there has to be something deep for her to be a profiler and clearly a very strong and sometimes stubborn woman | |

| Didn't she say there was a fire..and that was how she got the scar? Even the terrorist said that Ray(?) was obsessed with her...there's a relationship to at least her family there....husband is what I'm interested in hearing more about... |

I really hope it isn't as simple as they make it... I think they dropping hints that are leading in the wrong direction...
Tho I am thinking there is a connection with her scar... | |

| I like it. Spaders character, holds all the cards. He knows things that the Government wants to know. And he uses that to his advantage. What I don't know,is why he wants a connection with that Agent. According to both of them, they have no connection. Yet, he knows things about her,that no one else does, IE the burn on her hand. | |

| After last nights episode.. my theory is Raymond (Spader's character) is not the top dog, the Agent's father is and I think Raymond is working for her father, and I think the guy with the apple in last nights episode is her father... | |

| I also do not think her scar on her wrist has anything to do with a fire she was in.. I think it has to do with her being kidnapped when she was little and being branded.. like Raymond's bodyguard and all those girls who were kidnapped for human trafficking | |

| ohhh, excellent thoughts Desi. I am enjoying it at face value, I don't want to get into theorys, or background, until I know it will last.
Last night was good. I love how Reddington is always so calm and in control. And a quick thinker. | |

| So is tom some kind of agent as well? Planting the gun would be easy enough but all those passports....
Red can't be her dad, I agree too easy.
Is Apple guy spying on her? Or Tom ?
Did they say what happened to her dad? | |

Right now I have two theories... either the guy with the apple is her dad or Red and or the guy with the apple want her dad are trying to get to him through her | |

| This show has me confused, which is a good thing, it keeps me interested.
Reddington? I am "pretty" sure he is not Agent Keens father, but he does seem to invested in her well being. A friend of her fathers, or a relative?
Agent Keens husband, an innocent bystander? Did someone set him up, with the fake IDs, money and guns, hidden under the floor? Or is he, someone who married her, because he is working for someone else? Reddington, perhaps?
The guy with the apple? He wants to know, what Agent Keens does. Friend or foe, that is the question? And I have no freaken idea, who he is, or what he wants.
It is obvious, that her bosses do not trust her, because of Reddington. That was proven in the last episode.

| I love this show, but if every single episode is going to be her almost dying and Reddington showing up just in time to save her this show is going to get boring fast... they need to do some Reddignton flashbacks or Agent Keen flashback or something.. | |

| It still reminds me of Silence of the Lambs with him having so much insight.
I think the crimes and capers are good and entertaining but him being the "overlord" is getting old. They need to start getting into her investigation of her husband and Red's connection to them. | |

| At the creepy weird guys house, Reddington took a picture from the photo album. It was of a girl, younger than Liz, so I want to know who she was, and her connection to Reddington. | |

| I imagine daughter or something along those lines, in most cases he would let them jut lock the guy up, but it was personal this time... I enjoyed the line when she called him a monster and asked him how he can sleep at night... and he responded with "because I saved your life" | |

Desi, I agree, it has to be personal. Family member or someone close to his family. I think Reddington, turned himself in to help the FBI, help catch killers, to attone, for some of things he did. Or to get justice/closure, for a death he either helped commit, or did not do enough to stop. Of course, I could be way off base, I have never been good at guessing what is going to happen in a show or why. | |

I did, I need to rewatch it. I take back everything I said about Red, and Lizzies husband. Lizzie is Reds, Achilles Heel. When creepy guy brought her forward, he gave himself up. He said he was not her father, I am not sure that is true. He killed her adoptive father, because he did not want, Lizzie to know the "truth" whatever that is. As far as her husband? No freaken idea. The people watching her home, via CCTV, thought he was working with Red, but that idea turned out to be wrong. So is he good or is he dirty? Is he the innocent teacher, or really a spy/assassin? And who are/were those people watching her house? And why? | |
