Strange, indeed Mr. Bokenkamp was not messing around.

someone [reorganizing] a 15th century cult to hunt and kill pedophiles.

THE VEHM, NO.

this was a particularly humorous episode ofTheBlacklist, starting with Lizs BABY pro/con list.

PROS: My baby; Family; Chance for a normal life; Tom??

Speak of the devil: Toms at the door, and hes ready to be overbearing!

The writers think its time for Liz to leave the apartment and Tom to discover that pro/con list.

And people say clowns are creepy!

For Red is a man of action…and also a man of, uh,extremeobservation.

Liz admits to him that shes pregnant, to which Red responds that hes known that for some time.

The addition of a child will make that infinitely more difficult.

And guess who shows up at that child psychologists office?

I paid for mine, and now youll pay for yours.

In fact, many of the facts they had on the pedophiles they killed were made up.

So who was giving the Vehm false information on their targets?

And he knows the name of the man whos chasing him.

Or Tom Keen, who suddenly finds his job offer in Boston rescinded.

But Lizzie lives a different life now.

His life my life is so filled with violence and anger and hatred and death.

How can I bring a child into that world?

Start-over haircuts are a thing of the past; weve officially moved into Begrudging Acceptance haircuts.

And it looks pretty good!

NEXT: Katarina Rostova had a child once, too… Not one day of her pregnancy did she ever think of you as anything but a curse.

Thats a lot of information about Lizs mother and a (mostly) sweet sentiment.

For everything that Red gives to Lizzie, he takes something away, too.

Or did he get there just in time for trouble to find her?

And can it really be both?

And its only Lizzie that can make those final decisions.
