According J.D. Prewitt in the movie 'Zoolander', models (especially male models) have a long history of assassinating people.  :)

How could Aram's techie self not realize there would be a microphone embedded in the model to listen in on conversations? 

The guy was in love with the robot?  Whatever.

I have no idea where they're going with all this.

Still a few mentions of Liz. Few too many! Let her go writers!!!! 

The Chrissy robot choking the ambassador to death reminded me of what NBC is doing to the viewers by renewing for a season 10.

And what was the benefit to Red putting the agents on this case? Save the "well respected/honorable" Madam's business from losing to those nasty Toasters?! 

Why is Genuine Models No. 176 on the list!!?? The CEO is clean! The robots were hacked and just killed two people recently.

To keep customers from leaving, Frederica the Madam should just put word out her competition "Genuine Models, Inc. are really killing their customers (and not with good sex). Stay with us! We'll give you a 10% discount for loyalty".

The madam must be desperate to have to hit on Ressler. 

When Red told Cooper he is going to a funeral, Cooper should have followed with "Did you kill him?"!

Red is slipping, he could have sent Weecha to Matilda's house and steal the necklace when she wasn't home and not waste time with her and Cassandra!

Is it worth $250,000 purchasing Chrissy when a client has to clean her up every time after a "session"? Ewwww!

And at the end, Graham's motivation was because clients were using the Chrissy models for sex??? Huh! Seriously writers!??!! You can do better than this! Or maybe they can't!

After the models killed their clients, they got dressed, just walked away and got picked up by Graham. No cameras at the hotel/building for MPD to get a picture of them and make a connection? The police just gave BS stories to the press? Maybe the MPD police chief has a model of his own at home and didn't want to start trouble! 

After the crash, Chrissy walked out of the car and said "Fuck that guy! He tried to kill me driving off the cliff!"

At least Park admitted the Chrissy model was like looking at herself in the mirror. She might be a little hurt to know the model has a better personality than her!

In the season's finale we'll hear " All Along the Watchtower", then Red, Cooper, Aram, Park and Dembe will be revealed to be the other models!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! And Liz will return in a Viper!

What the artificial fuck, Blacklist? What even is this show now?

At least now someone can program the killer robots to go after people who neglect their pets!

I feel like we really got cheated by this show's low budget. I wanted to see Chrissy climb out of the rubble and sneak away. Let's get some Age of Ultron up in this bitch. Secret FBI hideout under siege by killer sex robots and Ressler is the one who let them in. Cooper and Dembe bond while fighting the robots, Aram tries to figure out how to disable them with salvaged electronics from around the office and Park tries to keep an eye on them by being mistaken for one. Red watches remotely and has a good laugh. Everyone dies. Red replaces them with identical robots he's had stored away for just such a day.

This episode was missing voice-overs by Harrison Ford 

Congressman Not!Gaetz getting choked out could only have been better if Chrissy was dressed as a high school sophomore...

Killer Robots... that are also sex slaves... never been done...

I rewatched the part where Barney's wife mentions Peter by name, and Red has a very clear moment there where he realizes something is amiss.  And also a look of genuine shock and surprise just a bit earlier when she announced her presence while standing behind him.

They had to cut short the scene at Burton's house because once Aram realized it was a anthropomorphic robot, he started salivating and gasping.

So, Red is rhapsodizing over his companion.  Is it Wichi, or did he buy a Chrissy doll?

The actress interviews to play the dolls must have been interesting.  "Just move your head around, but keep a dull, lifeless look on your face.  You don't have any lines, sorry."

The scripts cost Writers Guild minimum....

And clearly they are getting the minimum in return.

I just realized that the scariest part of this episode is that they just backdoored Robo-Lizzie. The only question is who is going to build her. Will it be Aram, on the borderline between curiosity and obsession? Will it be Ressler, for lack of a rasslin' partner? Will it be Cooper, to bring Agnes' mother back? Will it be Red, finally realizing he can pass his criminal empire along provided he programs her with the "competency" upgrade that Liz 1.0 never had? Or will it be the villain, defeating the team by recreating their greatest weakness? Damn, how do I become a writer on this stupid show? I can't make it any worse.

Since we've already had Zombie Lizzie and we could have Robo-Lizzie, are we going to get Alien Lizzie next season?

Producers:  "We need an actress who can actually play the part of Robo-Lizzie.  Completely expressionless, minimal acting, willing to do any ridiculous thing that's asked of her.  Any ideas on who we could get?"

All I got from this was it was nice to see Joely Richardson and Patricia Richardson.

I was sort of going along until idiot in love with his machine said he was killing these guys for violating her like model replicas.  Complete waste of time.  And yes, Red was doing this to protect the Madam's interests??

Still dragging the Liz thing out.

Cooper and his friend find the witness they're looking for and so does the detective investing the case against Cooper.  So how did the detective show up at the same time?  Also, the only clue they got was NY policeman.  Sure show.

My guess is Danny Reagan.  Oops wrong show.

I literally yelled "Oh My God!" when I read this. Please don't go there, show. Buffy already did this anyway.

What I want out of next season is a lot of crossovers between this show and Endgame, with Red passing the baton to Elena at the end as he goes off to live with Mercy and Weechie, or whatever their names are.

Maybe she is prepping an IPO and Red is on the hook if it flops

Why was Genuine Models Inc. the Blacklister O' the Week when it should have been Gordon Graham ?

No reason, but perhaps you could argue that Red believed that they WERE behind the killings and so had them on the Blacklist that way, but in retrospect, he would likely remove them altogether knowing it was just a rogue actor.
