'The Blacklist' Season 7 Episode 7: Katarina and Red are coming face to face, but fans want to know more about Agent Park first
'The Blacklist' aired one of its scariest episodes on Friday, November 8, thanks to the presence of an AI that killed the man that created it, his colleague and went on to plot the murder of a few more people.
Thankfully, Liz (Megan Boone), Red (James Spader), Aram (Amir Arison) and the rest of them were present to save the day, along with a new agent — Agent Alina Park (Laura Sohn).
We notice that there is something odd about her right from the beginning, and as Liz points out to Red, a darkness lurks in her and that should be of interest to the criminal mastermind.
She is a highly qualified agent, one that is driven by the desire to succeed, but it is her secret past, hidden in Anchorage, that makes Liz think she is a perfect fit for the Task Force.
While Red disagrees with her at the beginning of the episode, we see him change his mind after she nearly killed Francesca (Natalie Paul) with her bare hands.
Just as fans would have predicted, Agent Park is here to stay, and she called Liz at the end of the episode to say that she wants to join the team, but also get her Anchorage secret off the chest.
She also warned that the secret may make Liz change her mind about wanting her on the team. We highly doubt that, and certainly, we are excited for her to join the gang. She certainly has a savage side, which Red may bring out more often than she may like. She did talk about the influence of Red potentially "changing her DNA".
Fans are very excited about this character and want to know more about her, even though the highly anticipated face-off between Red and Katarina (Laila Robins) is scheduled for the episode airing on Friday, November 15 night, titled 'Hannah Hayes'.
In the promo, we see Katarina impassionately tell Red that she is tired of men running her life, and she is going to take back control once and for all.
We can get behind that sentiment, certainly, but not at the cost of Red's or Liz's life, and definitely not at the cost of putting baby Agnus in harm's way. Hopefully, she will not resort to any of these methods. Watch Season 7 Episode 7 of 'The Blacklist' when it airs on Friday, November 15, on NBC and Netflix.
