When will 'The Blacklist' Season 8 Episode 13 air?
According to TV listings, there is no new episode of 'The Blacklist' Season 8 after episode 12, airing tonight (April 2). 'The Blacklist' Season 8 will return with its upcoming episode 13, two weeks from now, on Saturday, April 16, at the show's usual 8 pm time slot on NBC. Titled 'Anne', there's no official synopsis out yet for the episode, but while fans watch out for that, they can find comfort in the newly released photo of Anne, with her arms around Red, as both smile at each other. That's enough tease for a reunion, a hint so glaring that fans are bound to get emotional at the idea.
Anne is about to make her third appearance on the show and viewers are still uncertain about what twist she might bring in Red's story. With his trusted mentee Elizabeth Keen aka Liz gone rogue, Red had very few people beside Dembe to lean on. Anne could be an addition to that exclusive list, but knowing the show's trajectory, they might not grant Red his final wish.
Yes, the legendary Raymon 'Red' Reddington is dying, and the crushing idea of not seeing James Spader play the role is near, but ahead of that final call, here's hoping Anne doesn't turn out to be another Blacklist connection. Red has already refrained from pursuing her after Dembe pointed out that perhaps such normalcy wasn't meant for someone like him. Maybe he has a point after all; Red really doesn't need any more enemies in life. But to him, all of this is a quest to save Anne from danger; what's left to be seen is for how long he will be able to do any of that.
Spoilers for 'The Blacklist' Season 8 Episode 12
Titled 'Rakitin', episode 12 of the ongoing Season 8 airs tonight, April 2, at the show's usual 8 pm time slot on NBC. The network teases, the episode will see "The Task Force's determination to identify a Russian asset in the US government puts Cooper and Reddington in increasingly treacherous positions." The Red and Cooper showdown has been anticipated for long and intensely too. Cooper has the drive that has incriminating archives against Red.
There's a high chance Red might decide to kill the expert FBI head because the identity of N13 must remain hidden. But the potential dangers of what Cooper might learn about Red and in what ways it could expose the latter also grants Cooper a leverage. No matter who wins the fight, the battle will be phenomenal to say the least.
'The Blacklist' Season 8 airs on Fridays at 8 PM only on NBC.
