Psalm 118:6 Dear Lord, Thank you so much that you are always with me. Thank you for reminding me that I don’t need to be afraid because you’re there, watching over me. Thank you that you are far greater than anything that could happen to me in this world, and I need only trust in you. Amen 詩篇118:6 親愛なる主よ、 あなたがいつも私と共にいてくださることを心から感謝します。あなたがそこにいて、私を見守っていてくださるので、恐れる必要がないことを思い出させてくださりありがとうございます。あなたはこの世で私に起こりうるどんなことよりもはるかに偉大な方であり、私はただあなたを信じるだけでよいことを感謝します。 アーメン
I admit I’m on the fence about the TV show, The Blacklist. On one hand, I absolutely LOVE James Spader. He has such a presence on screen that’s really exciting to watch.
On the other hand, the writers have a lot of little things that bother me, some “too stupid to live” moments. Every so often I’ll get so disgusted that I threaten to Captain Caffeine that I’m going to stop watching it … and then the show has some neat twist and I want to keep watching. So like an idiot, I keep watching.
There was a prediction I made at the end of Season 1, but Captain Caffeine said I should blog about it and put it out there. So here goes.
The man everyone thinks is Red Reddington is not Red Reddington. Let’s call him Mr. X. He’s Lizzie’s father.
The story about the real Red Reddington was that he was an officer who suddenly disappeared one day, then turned up 4 years later as a criminal.
The real Red Reddington died or was killed. Mr. X assumed Red’s identity and resurfaced 4 years after the disappearance, pursuing his criminal activities. There was a man in the Blacklist who could alter DNA—he did that for Mr. X to give him Red’s DNA. There was also a plastic surgeon in an episode that the fake Red mentioned he’d used, but he didn’t mention anything else about him—the surgeon gave Mr. X Red Reddington’s face.
Mr. X was at Lizzie’s house during the fire, but he was the man on the floor, her father.
In a season finale, Lizzie asked him if he was her father, and he said no. It was partially true—he is now Red Reddington, who is not her father.
So there’s my prediction. Mr. X is Lizzie’s father. What do you think?
