List of episodes

The fourth season of the American crime thriller television series The Blacklist premiered on NBC on September 22, 2016.[1] The season was produced by Davis Entertainment, Universal Television and Sony Pictures Television, and the executive producers are Jon Bokenkamp, John Davis, John Eisendrath, John Fox, and Joe Carnahan. The season contained 22 episodes and concluded on May 18, 2017.[2]

Overview

The fourth season resolves the question of Alexander Kirk's (Ulrich Thomsen) relationship to Elizabeth Keen (Megan Boone). Kirk discovers that Liz is not in fact his daughter and abandons his obsession with winning her trust and loyalty. The focus of the season then shifts to the war between former allies Reddington (James Spader) and his fixer Mr. Kaplan (Susan Blommaert). Red attempts to kill Mr. Kaplan for her efforts to hide Liz and her baby from Red, but Mr. Kaplan survives his attack and begins exposing the trail of dead bodies left by all of Red's criminal activities and systematically attempts to dismantle Red's organization through both overt and covert means. FBI Agent Julian Gale (Enrique Murciano), the former partner of Donald Ressler (Diego Klattenhoff) on the Reddington Task Force, is assigned to the Reddington investigation and Gale tries to use Mr. Kaplan's knowledge to bring down Red. The final episodes reveal the existence of a suitcase containing human bones of unknown origins that figure prominently in the next season's storylines.
