Here We Go Again
Hitchcoc18 November 2022
Warning: Spoilers
Once again Elizabeth gets an A in remedial stupidity 101. What is it she wants to find out? She has fragmented information about when she was a tiny little girl. She is obsessed to the nth degree. She is willing to continue to help that jackal, Alexander, even though every sign points to his being no relation to her. Of course, we all know this. She has her baby back. She has that husband (whatever he is), and a life, and yet she is manipulated again and again. She is apparently a psychologist. She should diagnose herself as having a mental illness. I know this is fiction, but she is also responsible for the deaths of numerous people.

And I ask again, though I know the answer..

Why did Keen never just do a DNA test with Red before or Kirk now?

Yes, I know that would spoil the story arcs, but it's always annoyed me.

Kirk says "you picked Reddington" Maybe because Red didn't kidnap her/her child, and then threaten to jump off a building with it in his arms.... And then finally we find out she ain't his kid anyway!

frustrating lack of common sense

Warning: Spoilers
I've been watching this series, and it started out well. It was interesting and moved forward nicely. But now, everyone's lack of common sense is getting irritating. These people are supposed to be highly intelligent agents and yet they are all gullible to accept everything told to them at face value without demanding proof. Best example from this episode is the DNA 'proof' that Kirk is her father. Liz is so indignant that Red lied to her about Kirk. But it's so obvious that it's not true. Her fickleness regarding Red is growing tedious. She runs to him when she wants something. Then gets pissed when he doesn't tell her every single detail of every situation. Liz's character is not a sympathetic one. The writers have really dropped the ball with her. She just comes across like a petulant, spoiled child. And why in the world would she agree to save Kirk's life. He stole her baby, kidnapped her and threatened their lives. Let him die.
