Tuxie - yes, I think you're right. It just seems far to similar not to be the same ones.
Yes, I see the passports, what do you think that yellow thing is?

Tuxie400 · 5/05/2017 2:10 pm

I think the yellow thing is book. It could be a codebook like the comics were in Redemption.

The room does look similar with the brick wall. and yes, it would not be exactly the same.

Red's box of secrets. hmmm

I'm still thinking the Mom theory again.

I just re-watched Artax. No new observations, but I'm now more certain that the person with Red is Dom - the details of the jacket fit the one that he was wearing in Artax when he came back with the groceries.

The other interesting thing is that in the Spoiler photo, Red is bending down over the box in the ground (more burials, boxes in the ground!) holding a kind of hand held brush. Reminds me of the record cleaner that Gale found with Diane Fowler's things. So I do wonder now if Red did touch it after all......and if Kaplan missed it that would be at least the second time that she was sloppy (the other with the bullet in the ship)

I was looking at the pictures of everyone on the bridge. I get the impression someone is about to jump off of it. I wonder if mr.k jumps?

There were behind the scenes photos posted on alyblacklist' site a couple weeks ago of the bridge scene shoot. One photo showed Dembe standing next to Red's car, and Red's stunt double was there, too. So I think you are right, someone is going off that bridge. Willingly or unwillingly? Kate? Red? Both? Liz? All of the above? None of the above?

Tuxie400 · 5/06/2017 8:50 am

Someone jumping from the bridge! I didn't get that impression. But that might be the biggest cliffhanger of them all.

The bridge scene for me takes me right back to the pilot where the FBI convoy is ambushed and Beth is adbucted by being taken over the bridge to waiting boats below.

The most interesting things for me about the spoiler photos are:

1. Cooper out in the field, on the bridge - why?
2. the position of all of the cars - what appears to be Red's car is directly facing, at an angle, the FBI black car, which has its back window blown out; there are other FBI cars behind it, as though it had been a convoy of some sort (possibly). Could of just been a bunch of cars responding but we usually don't see that - we see one car, or a convoy. Then, further down, the bridge is blocked off by Virginia police cars.

So - was there a convoy? if so who were they transporting and who ambushed them; or, were they after a person - fi so was that Red or Kaplan or both (both seem to be on the bridge, as well as Dembe); or, did Red and the Task Force find out about Kaplan's whereabouts at the same time and Red tried to beat them to it?
Another possibility - did Kaplan have Liz hostage?

But I do think its pretty certain someone tried to ambush or intercept the FBI for some reason.

I wonder if this is the very last scene of the season. LOL

I remember seeing a spoiler pic of Kaplan in a car with Gale - maybe on AlyBlacklist - maybe she's the convoy guest of honor? To testify against Red and/or the task force? Maybe the task force intercepts the convoy or is preventing Red from doing so.

So many maybes!!

Colleen - yes Kaplan is shown somewhere with Gale. Just who is chasing who on that bridge is hard to say! I know there was a spoiler where Gale was seen shooting at a black mercedes, and someone thinks they saw Red in the back.

Its nail-biting territory! LOL

Colleen · 5/06/2017 7:29 pm

No clue why, but I thought of Dom just now while filling my pill box for the week. And then I wondered if Dom "fit" anything Red ever said about his dad. Guess it would be too obvious if a Lake Charlevoix magnet held a Brill Cream coupon on the fridge.

Was hoping it would give evidence one way or the other about Red being Katarina. But it wouldn't rule out the possibility of Red being Katarina's brother.

Thursdays don't get here fast enough with more clues :-)

My wild and crazy finale prediction is that it will end up on the bridge. Red and Kate will face off and Red will push Kate over the edge. She will grab onto him and pull him over with her. They will both disappear into the water, leaving a horrified Liz (and everyone else) looking over the railing. The end?

Well, it could happen that way.

Of course the reason they are all there is because Liz has tried to broker a peace talk between them. And it could easily be that Red has promised not to harm Kate, but Kate is the one who pushes him. And he drags her with him. Either way I think they both end up in the water.

lara1 · 5/11/2017 12:15 am

Honey West - well I hope that Red can swim after all. That is one way we will find out. 🙃

Honey West · 5/11/2017 12:46 am

Heheheheheh!

Maybe Liz has finally had it with those two and pushes them over the edge herself!

Perfect JR, Dallas conclusion ;-)

I agree, someone or several someones go over the bridge.

lara1 · 5/11/2017 11:50 am

Yes no point in having a standoff on the bridge if no one goes off or threatens to go off. We've had a kind of precedent with Kirk threatening to jump and odette jumping. Also circles right back to the pilot bridge scene.

I can't believe there is just one more week left to the season though. 😩

Honey West · 5/11/2017 2:39 pm

Well, now that they have renewal it puts things into a whole new light. Even if they went off he bridge, Red, at least, would need to,survive. They could keep,us hanging for the whole summer with that one! Yes, Tatiana, it hearkens back to,"who shot JR?" BTW, I guessed wrong on that one!

Well, Kate could disappear with no body ever found, just like Katarina. She could join up with Odette, too. Maybe there is a secret Cabal of women who got involved in Red's web of intrigue, ended up supposedly drowned, but now work to try to undermine him?

Colleen · 5/11/2017 10:53 pm

I'm absolutely laughing out loud at everyone's finale suggestions!!!

Red and Kate end up stuck together on an uncharted island for the summer. Thankfully Nick's Pizza delivers there.

Eastcoast · 5/11/2017 11:23 pm

I think Liz should get them a big t-shirt that they have to wear together until they makeup! lol

....What Cooper finds in that DOJ file card with Reddington's name on it. Clearly those are his thumbs on the card. All I can read on it are the following. And I have tried to search the DOJ site and google to no avail. Upper left corner in red ink
DOJ
53-01
1002

Reddington

TICR / CL6 / 09232013
EO 13175 / Fed Reg 67249
Washington, DC
9 p. ??? (Covered by credits)

Anyway, maybe someone else can shed some light. The only one I could decipher was 09232013 being the series premiere date.
