I was really entertained all the way through, it's smart and balanced. Delightfully written and very interesting stories, exactly what the second half of the season needed. It also sets up a lot of very important stuff, the characters it introduces and grows are essential to the larger story. Really like the Blair Foster character, she's a great adversary and a lot of fun to watch (just like Reddington) If you ask me this season is wonderful so far, can't wait to see how it concludes. Some episodes have been a little boring according to other reviews but I personally didn't notice. This one's definitely the best since the start of the second half of the season.

Our congressman is going ahead with his efforts to get at the task force. Why he is so adamant is up in the air. It will feather his nest, certainly. Enter Senator Dorf who knows things that could be damaging; however, Reddington always knows something else. He has a huge playbook. Blair Foster is a formidable crime-master, able to sic her minions on anyone that crosses her. Unlike Reddington, she will kill children if it serves her purposes. On goes the task force and for a moment they seem to be OK, but we will be seeing more of Ms. Foster, I'm sure. In a separate story, Red heads down to Cuba where he meets someone that was extremely important to him at one time. Good setup going into the end of the final season.
