I am your mother, at the end of Friday nights episode ofThe Blacklist.
However, to the audience, thats not exactly new information.
As far as reveals go, it was about like finding out Red has a soft spot for owls.

Fun, but also:duh.
As it is, I think I left this hour ofThe Blacklistmore clueless than when I started it.
ORION RELOCATION SERVICES, NO.
BecauseThe Blacklistisnt even going to pretend to explain how Dr. Skovic is luring these memories out of Ilya.
But as we see young Ilya explaining this plan to young Katarina, present-day Katarina exclaims, But how?
So Skovic decides to try something even more risky: Katarina enters Ilyas dream state with him.
How, you ask?
Who cares,The Blacklistanswers!
I need you to tell me what happened.
In the memory, Dom tells Ilya that the ruse with Reddington didnt work.
He says it just made the people who wanted Katarina dead even angrier.
He says theyre not going to stop looking until Katarina is dead.
You want me to kill your daughter?
It seems the answer is yes.
And its just difficult to know who exactly were supposed to have sympathy for in this particular situation.
But deep down, shemustknow…
And, indeed, she soon admits she had her suspicions.
Red tries to get answers about Katarinas new identity, but the woman dies almost immediately.
You already know the reason, and that should be enough, Katarina Rostova replies.
A FEW LOOSE ENDS
Not a good enough reason, Katarina!!!
Isthis woman Lizs mother?
If so, why does she tell her bodyguard that theyre going to be neighbors with Ms.
He says hes not keeping the owl, but methinks hell come around.
