The Blacklist (NBC) S1:E2 *SPOILERS*

The-Blacklist-NBC-1

No beer tonight, I was our for most of the afternoon from work with some kind of sickness so hopefully that doesn’t impair my witty retorts. Edit: Sorry for posting this AM, apparently I forgot my laptop as well.

Sympathy for the devil remix opens us up this week, bad CGI chopper inbound. Spader is a sneaky, sneaky man. So the FBI isn’t aware that Elizabeth’s husband in in cahoots? We finally understand why Spader gets the leeway he does, yellow sweater/grey hair Justice Department lady remains unimpressed with Spader’s animal magnetism.

Wait who ordered the train? And somebody get Vern and Gordie off the tracks before they get turned into fried green tomatoes!

Elizabeth is talking to vegetable husband, gross visine tears almost land directly into the mouth. Dodged a bullet there for sure. Spader doesn’t know about trains, so that rules out him and Lumbly building a trainset. Time to air out your Spader, make sure to walk him and refill his hamster bottle! Spader is your father Lizzy Skywalker! Spader is all about boats and hoes, but not trains. Spader is like vocal Houdini with his handcuffs, can’t keep a good pinstripe/vest combo down.

The Blacklist - Season 1

5 Year veteran Handsomeface seems to have an issue following Spader, maybe time for more pictures. Spader is a hobo! A terrobo? Montreal! Time for some Molson and Flannel! RCMP represent! Spader perhaps planted the guns? Lizzy has no time for fun, but Spader’s blue tie with orange poke dots isn’t having it.

Daughter reference drop, FBI has tagging technology just like Facebook! Spader is a master of dinner conversation. Does Lizzy have his number? Spader is your parent! You fool! Spader pulls the ‘your whole life is a lie card’ and here comes the loud calvary, damn mounties. Spader with the old disappearing hat fire alarm gag. Handsomeface busts the waiter, what did I tell you about the FBI and tipping last time?

Commercial break numbero uno, this Gatorade is delicious.

Tommy Lee Jones Fugitive style manhunt going down here, Spader is in the van for the win. Lizzy seems unimpressed, until it is revealed that Spader pulled a hat trick. Handsomeface’s name is Donald. The old, ‘I have many enemies’ argument for not taking added security. Lizzy is a fan of orange sweater lady, with the assassination attempt and all.

Pas through the FBI security, hmm I doubt a professional could pull that off. We’re back to the justice department, I like Dembe. Oh, since it’s off the books it’s ok. You might talk to he senate for a hearing, but don’t worry they shut the government down, so it’s all good to bend the rules.

Spader is a man who loves to party and his posse is ready to ride dirty. Spader knees the new girl is CIA, but come on it’s the government. Dembe isn’t having any of Donald’s shit and finishing his beer. Why would you want to kill someone trying to thwart human sex trafficking? Oh because the world can be kind of shit. The waiter is the freelancer, you know tough economy and all. Really? STOP FBI. STOP OR MY SPADER WILL SHOOT. shit this waiter is good, he knows parkour and probably had magic unbreakable legs. Lizzy commandeers… A taxi? Oh man, this is like that Fallon/Queen Latifah movie. Pow right in the magic legs.

Commercial break number two.

Yeah, that dude isn’t going to walk right again. Handsomeface doesn’t take kindly to spitting. CIA liaison is brutal, like damn. Spader wanted the target alone, the FBI works for him now! Spader doesn’t like the assassin’s target, apparently she has a shady past. Everybody knows Spader, but nobody knows who this lady really is and confirmed. Yup she for sure deserves to die. Spader just flexed his antihero acting muscles all over the place.

Commercials break number three

The team of Spader and Dembe make me think of Mr. Brisby and Mandalay from the Venture Brothers. Damn, no antidote. That’s cold Spader, cold blooded. But that lady had the devils due coming to her. Spader walks off tuxedoed and offers Lizzy option number three.

Which is smoother husband with a pillow? Nope, turn him in? Handsomeface checks out Dembe in the locker room.  Spader is out for beers and sushi, like a boss. Lizzy find perhaps yet more evidence that her husband is spy? Or perhaps just reassured that his glasses keep husband in check as Clark Kent. I’m glad this show has a positive note about adoption and why that is something people should do.
