The Blacklist
Dr. Adrian Shaw
Season 4, Episode 7 Recap
Ulrich Thomsen | Image copyright NBC"I think you're compassionate. You believe he's your father. When push comes to shove, your impulse will be to save him."
Project Intro: Well, things have not gone to plan. I gave myself a project for the 2016-2017 TV season. I was going to tweet every episode of my five favorite dramas and then gather those tweets into post form, sprinkling in more commentary here and there. The only one I managed to finish was The Walking Dead S7E8, which took weeks, as is the usual for me when I get hung up on one amazing episode. So, the whole summer passed me by and I had nothing to show for it. But I'm not giving up on this project. I'm just turning it in past due, and making sure I don't have a two-season pile up by next May. Good luck to me.
This is one of those episodes that I tweeted a good amount, but then I didn't do much commenting afterwards to expand on those thoughts. I'm not sure why. Time must have gotten away from me. I'll try to expand on this in the future if I get to that rewatch I've been longing to do.
Stevens-Johnson Syndrome. Well, that looks horrifying. 😱 #TheBlacklist

No, don't use the bone saw! What are you sickos doing? #TheBlacklist

Of course Liz will want to save Kirk, Red, even though he's been a bit of a turd. He has answers for her. #TheBlacklist

"You remind me so much of her, your mother."
— Erin Bates (@Reinbeast) November 4, 2016
Was that sincere or manipulative of you, Kirk? Hmm, maybe both. #TheBlacklist
How about sincerely manipulative? Manipulatively sincere? Can that be a thing?
"He's not breathing. Get a medic in here now!"

I vote for doing nothing. Just let him go. #TheBlacklist
"Few things in life are truly impossible..."
— Erin Bates (@Reinbeast) November 4, 2016
The way Red threatens people is such a treat. #TheBlacklist
"Reddington said I'd save him. Tom will never forgive me if I do."
— Erin Bates (@Reinbeast) November 4, 2016
You can only do what you need to do, Liz.#TheBlacklist
Which isn't a very helpful thing for me to say, I know. Probably best not to come to me for advice.
"Given what he's done, no one would fault you for walking away."
— Erin Bates (@Reinbeast) November 4, 2016
No, but they would cheer and shout from the rooftops. #TheBlacklist
"I found the teacup...oh, and the banana!" It was already hilarious, but Dembe getting in on the Highlights action killed me. #TheBlacklist

"There's simply nowhere for you to go."
— Erin Bates (@Reinbeast) November 4, 2016
Oh this bitch gotta die...unless we need her. 😒 #TheBlacklist
Kirk: "I'm leaving you my fortune."
— Erin Bates (@Reinbeast) November 4, 2016
Me: "Daddy!" #TheBlacklist
"Why did you decide to help me?"
— Erin Bates (@Reinbeast) November 4, 2016
"Because you didn't ask."
No, he just took...your baby. 🙄#TheBlacklist
"Help him if you have to, but promise me you're not gonna hurt yourself in the process."
— Erin Bates (@Reinbeast) November 4, 2016
You should just bubble-wrap her up. #TheBlacklist
"It's not just that we wern't compatible. The test results showed something else." Ooh, I know what that's going to be. 😁 #TheBlacklist
— Erin Bates (@Reinbeast) November 4, 2016
I guess I was so excited about the possibilities being opened back up that I couldn't spell "weren't."
"You're in my debt, which can be a complicated place to be."
— Erin Bates (@Reinbeast) November 4, 2016
That's got to be better than being in Red's way at least. #TheBlacklist
"You are going to save me, Masha! Save me, Masha!"
— Erin Bates (@Reinbeast) November 4, 2016
The desperation in his voice hurt me a little. Pleading always does that. #TheBlacklist
Even when I don't like someone, it gets to me every time. The best example of that I think will always be Ben Linus digging his own grave on Lost. It was then that I realized that Michael Emerson was a superb actor, when he made my heart break for a villain. Now I'd definitely like to see more of Kirk, because Ulrich Thomsen killed this scene.
"All of Kirk's resources will be brought to bear."
— Erin Bates (@Reinbeast) November 4, 2016
Got a good feeling that it's going to be another fantastic finale for #TheBlacklist.
"Fall finale." My two most hated & cherished words. Such a long break, but it's always a great ep & then I can catch up on blogging.
— Erin Bates (@Reinbeast) November 4, 2016
I see I mentioned catching up on blogging. Oh, how ambitious I was last November.
