Weren't one of those Kathryn xxxxx? or something like that?

I noticed on IMDb they included episode 86 but there's absolutely no info  on that page.

I think 4.16 will be Dembe Zuma and 4.17 will be Kathryn XXXX, whatever Kaplan's last name is. And I do think Red will end up being #1 on the Blacklist, as he always intended.

That's what everyone is guessing, Tuxie400 #44. Unless Katherine whatever might be Katarina Rostova. But I'm more inclined that it turns out to be Kaplan. I would be surprised if they weren't pretty high up on the list.

lara1 #45, don't forget that Alexander Kirk was not originally on the list. I think the list is fluid anyway. Some definite people or things on it, but plenty of room for more and the order probably changes as well.

These cast members, episode names, and information have been the same for a few weeks now so I think we can rely on them. The first two episodes will be shown back to back on April 20th starting one hour earlier than usual.

The photos on this previous post are off by one. I'll try to fix it. But we have young Kaplan, Annie, Young Kirk, Grey and some others.

Did someone post that the actor who portrays Sam is purported to be in an upcoming episode?

Hi Tatiana,  Yes I posted that Sam is supposed to be part of 4.17.  That was from Aly's post over the weekend of spoiler photos for 4.17   The owner of the house that formed the set indicated that she met William Sadler, the actor who plays Sam.  That episode also has the black dog.

It sounds like we may get a more recent flashbacks maybe with Kaplan, Sam and Grey?  or some mixed flashbacks, some older than others.

Someone somewhere else posted that the photos look as though a child is already living in the house which makes sense given that toys are already there.  So I don't think its the story of how Liz went to Sam, but perhaps when she was already living there, or perhaps the house is somewhere else.  Or maybe scenes are shown of both - Liz being taken to Sam and then later once she is living there.  But I think we will see a connection between Kaplan and Sam.  only 4 more weeks to go!

Liz is the chosen one to finally stop him. But she has to be empowered and wake up.

Cape May - Where did i read recently that Jon Bokenkamp or other BL related folk said Cape May is packed with stuff. The implication is that fans have not really delved into what's really in that episode and I know we've had a lot of discussion about it for various reasons.

I just rewatched. How on earth did it not win Emmys for absolutely everything! Emmys. Hands down!!!

Stream of thought here....

I'm back to thinking Katarina and Red worked together; who ever was after them are actually after him; fighting the 'enemy' are any of those actions part of what happened at fire night? Or what happened at his own home with his own family? Things that struck me, "you sound like an actuarial"; there was a woman, there was a child - I think's meant to be nebulous so that we think of both Katarina and Masha and Elizabeth and Agnes; is it possible he's also talking about his 'real' wife and daughter? 

Masha/Elizabeth - Katarina always calls her Masha. Red always calls her Elizabeth. Fire night the dialogue has the man calling her Elizabeth and the woman calling her Masha.
Red as Imposter - if Red as we know him took over Raymond Reddington's identity after fire night, who was he before? The imposter theory says that Red or the person who says he's Raymond Reddington was there the night of the fire. He was injured in the fire. After that night or some time after his real family was destroyed/taken away, imposter Red gave his daughter's identity to Masha. 

But the timing is off. 

They had to have been calling Masha Elizabeth for a very long time. Did Red secret away Masha from infancy so she could be created into a super spy/criminal/assassin like himself and Katarina? (There aren't many of us, you know how to recognize people like us) Masha lived part time in the Summer Palace with her mother and father, Katarina and Constantin. But there were very long extended times that he was away. Was she being raised by imposter Red? Was imposter Red making her into a super killer? training her to be a master spy?

What did Constantin mean when he said to Red, unlike you I would never harm my daughter. (Frankly, I thought that was a bit cheap of him as he was harming the daughter he thought he had by kidnapping her and her baby).
