The Blacklist Season 10 Episode 7 Review: The Freelancer, Part 2

It’s starting to really feel like the top with each passing episode.

On The Blacklist Season 10 Episode 7, Wujing employed the abilities of The Freelancer to search out and set up a connection between Raymond and the Task Force.

Wujing has had two choices to show that Raymond works for The FBI. The first is to search out official paperwork that help the declare, and the second is to search out tangible proof.

It would seem he took Robert’s recommendation about not trying to interrupt right into a safe FBI website and determined to take the for much longer path of gathering proof.

This can be a time and resource-consuming methodology, and whether or not he’ll keep on with it or fall again on his authentic plan stays to be seen.

The return of the Freelancer did not really feel as eventful as Dr. Perillos’.

For Perillos, we acquired to expertise her. We acquired to see her in motion and see that by way of to some extent.

The Freelancer felt a bit anti-climatic as a result of each time he would begin one thing, he would both get interrupted or we’d see the aftermath within the information.

It would have been extra dramatic if we may see the ferry go down or the constructing collapse. It sounds a bit darkish to need to see tragedies occur, however that is what would have made for good television.

The solely level they acquired for the freelancer was that he may combat. It was straightforward to dismiss him as a brains form of man, however he additionally had the brawn. Taking on two FBI brokers and holding down was no minor feat.

It’s unclear whether or not we’ll get to see the conclusion of the Freelancer as a result of this was unsatisfactory. He wanted to fulfill a grotesque loss of life, regardless that that will by no means be sufficient to pay for his sins.

Like the previous few episodes within the season, this episode made it really feel like the top was certainly close to. And as a lot as we thought it, Raymond felt it.

It isn’t misplaced on him that he has performed an enormous half within the loss of life of individuals near him.

Harlod: I used to be sorry to listen to about Robert Vesco. I do know you two have been shut.
Raymond: Too shut, I’m afraid.

The newest was that of Robert, and presumably that was too actual for him.

Elizabeth’s loss of life was an important shock however will need to have felt surreal. She was younger and had so much to reside for. Sometimes I feel he hopes he’ll get up in the future and this may all be a horrible nightmare he cannot wait to depart behind.

Robert was one of many final associates his age he had left. He was at all times positive the place he stood with Robert. With him gone, it appeared like loss of life was coming for him subsequent.

And there was a relentless point out of loss of life, from the soulful chats with different characters to the much-used promo by the community.

It seems like loss of life is the one method Raymond can escape this cascading impact.

It is like an endless forking highway the place one path results in three extra paths. It can really feel redundant and overwhelming when the paths at all times result in loss of life and destruction.

The solely escape is ending all of it. Nothing fairly does that, like loss of life.

But earlier than he dies… if he dies, Raymond was residing.

We would by no means have seen Raymond spend just a few days at a spot he hadn’t ensured can be protected every week earlier than his arrival and every week after. His residing with that household for the few days he did was out of desperation.

I want to remain on the town till I type this out. That would not be a pull out, wouldn’t it? As a potential investor, I’d love an opportunity to check these sheets.

Raymond

Desperation for a human connection, the one factor he by no means fairly appeared to carry on to. If somebody near him does not die, they both go away or betray him.

With each passing day, he discovered himself much less and fewer wanted. It would have made him really feel he had a goal or that means if Rogelio had accepted his funding supply.

Rogelio: You do not perceive. I do not want you to speculate.
Raymond: You’re evolving, my buddy. You do not want me anymore.

Even Agnes appeared to be fairing properly with out him. She had loving mother and father and a contented life which is all a baby may ask for. Secretly, he had been hoping to latch on to her and make her his precedence, however as he has discovered, she does not want him, and he is not good for her.

Elsewhere, Ressler was making a milestone of his personal.

I’m very proud to say that one in all us is celebrating a 12 months sober in the present day. Donald, why do not you come up right here?

Group Leader

Many issues have a transparent resolution for Ressler, however his habit was essentially the most upsetting factor about his life. It was the one factor that he had no management over, and no quantity of will would save him from it.

Being one 12 months sober isn’t straightforward. And when he noticed one other particular person combating what he had been combating, it was like a name to him. He loves serving to individuals, and that man clearly wanted assist.

He was uncertain as a result of sobriety is the one factor that he has no management over, however he was keen to take the danger.

While “The Freelancer Pt. 2” did not wow with its dealing with of the blacklister, it dove deeper into what was occurring in Raymond’s life and what impact that may have on his future.

It was additionally hilarious with Herbie having visited the Post Office. Who knew the man was humorous even with out utilizing his daughter’s gimmick?

There was a vibe between him and Siya, even from earlier episodes. Did you discover it?

We would love to listen to your ideas concerning the episode, so do not hesitate to remark.
