So annoying!
drnikic25 May 2021
Julian Gale that is. I'm glad the season's nearly over, because hopefully that will see the end of him. I think it's being overacted a bit, which doesn't help.

Although I hate Mr Kaplan and Red fighting, I love her way of dealing with a cyberbully!

Once again Liz messed up

Ahh once again righteous hypocritical Liz messed up another plan that would have stopped the bloodshed, but nope. Liz thinks she knows best. Even though every time she tries to interfere, she makes things so much worse.. And the fbi guy taking a pot shot at red????? Well that's also liz's fault.

Does LIz Have a Modicum of Common Sense?
Hitchcoc21 November 2022
There are so many interesting occupations portrayed in this show. We have people who can infiltrate people's minds, who can destroy the lives and credibility of anyone, and now we have a person who gets paid for getting revenge on people. Not for himself but for hire. This person comes into the picture when someone hires him to capture and exact revenge on Elizabeth. Red has to engage Mr. Kaplan, even though they are trying to off one another. I'm going to ask the million dollar question. Why is she so important. She's dumb and impulsive. She doesn't use common sense. She cares only about herself and her stupid childhood. Yet both Red and Kate feel she gets royal treatment even when others are being slaughtered. Here she makes another big mistake.

The task force need help from Mr Kaplan, she inspected Tyler's corpse. Liz got ubducted by Edgar Grant. Tyson Pryor, the man who gave the order to abduct Liz got arrested by Samar. Tyson didnt hire Edgar to abduct Liz but Red did it to get Kaplan captured. Red shot down Edgar he died instantly. Kaplan arrived at Red with a crew, Liz tries to calm the situation down. Samar and Ressler arrived a shooting battle began but nobody got hurt. The next name on The Blacklist is Mr. Kaplan. Solid episode of The Blacklist Season 4, this season comes to an end in the last two episodes.

Julian Gale (Enrique Murciano) is ruining the show
TobyRossTLV11 June 2023
Already limping in a fatigue after an energetic start the series now is in a bit of trouble they bring in Enrique Murciano as Julian Gale who is just a bad horrible actor who makes you dislike his character but not in a good cinatmic way. I cant stand him and his acting style (or overacting) to the point that you kust want to go to the next episode. It is obvious from the beginning and I am not sure if his role does not reveal itself as a creep. Also the Mr Kaplan subplots does not work well here I feel that he reemergence could have been done in a bit more flare- the plot and the feeling both go south on a dingi looking for a ship to save them.

Turning point for me, done with Blacklist
JasonBelle24 June 2019
Warning: Spoilers
I liked the show, which is very rare, until it started to run out of gas. I'm not sure when exactly I began to lose interest.. maybe somewhere between the end of S2 and mid-S3. By season 4, I was hitting the +10sec button often but the Debt Collector episode put the nail in the coffin. The show was getting bad enough with the long, drawn out catfight between Kaplan and Red, but the Debt character was like a right hook, followed by this new FBI superhero goes undetected, with a force, and shoots to murder Red. That was the uppercut that knocked the show out. Back to music in the background for a while.

Terrible editing/directing
km-8855411 November 2022
I've been binge watching the series and just wanted to make note of the absolutely awful directing or editing in this episode. It stands out from other episodes by having terrible jumps from one scene to another. Maybe the original version was too long for whatever reason and consequently the shortening led to clumsy editing.

Plotwise it's ok - although I agree with others that the Julian Gale character is overacted and just does not work.

Still, overall the best season thus far in my opinion. Looking forward to seeing how it ends and where it leads in the following seasons of the series....
