The Blacklist Season 2 returns on February 1 after almost two months of hiatus. Back in the fall finale, your mind is probably still wrapped up about what went on. Raymond Reddington (James Spader) and Tom Keen (Ryan Eggold) are working together. To what end? That is something that will be answered in the coming episodes. One thing for sure though is that Elizabeth Keen, Tom's husband and Red's close friend, will be devastated once she learns about this.
While it is expected to see Liz left in the dark about the real relationship between her strange husband and Red for a few more episodes, fans will be updated sooner. According to a spoiler from TV Line, The Blacklist Season 2 return will not only see Red and his team work to cross out criminals on his list. It will also deal with the past of Tom Keen.
TV Line wrote:
"Regarding that gigantic cliffhanger in November's fall finale - How do Tom and Red know each other?! - series creator Jon Bokenkamp says that burning question will be answered. Eventually. "Tom clearly has some sort of past that Liz is not aware of, that involves Red," the EP confirms. "We will continue to tell that story. We don't dive right into it in the Super Bowl episode, but that does start to bubble up later in the back half of the season."
Aside from the truth behind the Red-Tom connection, The Blacklist Season 2 episode nine will also see Liz get troubled by the awful decision Tom made when they were together in the dock during the fall finale. Her former husband killed a harbor master after the latter found out that they have been dwelling the boat for months. The guy will be reported as missing by his wife which will somehow lead to Liz. This only means that more than just tracking Tom and other criminals, Megan Boone's character will have to take care first of it.
