The Blacklist has been one of my favourite shows for the longest time. Yet the writers appeared to be out of creativity since the end of the Cabal plot. This season, however, is the strongest one in the show so far, with more storylines going on than in any other season, and more interesting Blacklisters too.
This episode in particular shows one of the greatest case-of-the-weeks with a morally ambiguous criminal, great acting from everyone involved, a good buildup of tension and lots of action. On top of that, the ideas of this blacklister kept me thinking for days afterwards, something no other episode has done so far. It's a story that raises an interesting question about modern day problems in a way similar to Dan Brown's Inferno. I might have rated this episode a 10 if it weren't for the already high quality of this season.
