The following post contains major spoilers for Friday’s episodes of The Blacklist.
After 130 episodes, dozens of creepy criminals and a whole lotta fandom-wide conspiracy theories, viewers of The Blacklist finally know who Raymond Reddington really is.
Of course, when the credits initially rolled on The Blacklist‘s pilot back in 2013, many of us assumed that Raymond Reddington was merely a fugitive, turning himself in after years on the FBI’s Most Wanted list. But as the NBC drama continued, it became clear that Red isn’t really Red, and the man that James Spader has been portraying since Season 1 is merely an impostor.
