‘The Blacklist’ season 2, episode 18 preview: Megan Boone, James Spader, and Fulcrum drama

Where will the story on “The Blacklist” go from here? Let’s just say that you should not forget about the Fulcrum at all going into “Vanessa Cruz,” the all-new episode of the show airing a week from Thursday night. This will be one that gives us a female Blacklister, which is something that you do not get a chance to see very often on the show. Also, you have the story of the Fulcrum becoming even crazier than it has been so far, which we genuinely think is saying something.

For more on this story, including how Tom Keen is involved and how Reddington is starting to put on the pressure-clamp, just take a look at the attached synopsis below:

“The task force tracks a provocative female Blacklister (guest star Ana de la Reguera), a frame-up artist who targets the wealthy elite. Tom (Ryan Eggold) pleads for Liz’s (Megan Boone) help. Red (James Spader) pressures Liz for the Fulcrum, claiming it’s now a matter of life and death.”

What makes the promo below so exciting is fairly simple: Liz is going to have to choose between either Tom, who she once loved, or the man who has been helping her put bad guys away, albeit with rather questionable / ambiguous motives. This is surely going to be an interesting series of episodes, that is for sure!

Ultimately, we’ll be back with some more scoop related the show throughout the week. Stay tuned for more.
