'The Blacklist' Season 2 News: First Episode Title Revealed, Krysten Ritter and Mary Louise Parker to Guest Star
"The Blacklist" promises an explosive first episode when it comes back for its second season. The season premiere is less than two weeks away, and several spoilers have started coming in, to the delight of fans of the show.
It has been reported that the title of the first episode is called "Lord Baltimore." According to TVLine, it's a reference to Red Reddington's (James Spader) latest threat to his life. Lord Baltimore could either be an asset to Berlin or just the villain of the week.
"Red continues to battle Berlin (guest star Peter Stormare) and faces a new threat from a man named Lord Baltmore. An important person comes back from the past into Red's world. Meanwhile, Liz (Megan Boone) tries to move forward with her life after her showdown with Tom (Ryan Eggold)," the synopsis reads.
Recently, NBC has released some official photos of the show's season premiere, and it looks like Red and Liz are working together again. It can be recalled that Liz began to avoid Red when she learned that he was using her, but eventually she went back to working with him when she learned the truth about her husband. In one photo, Liz is seen looking at some papers, and in another she appears to be keeping a low profile as she's dressed in a grey hoodie and pants.
The episode will feature guest stars such as Krysten Ritter of "Don't Trust the B----- in Apartment 23," and Mary-Louise Parker of "Weeds." Parker will be playing the role of Naomi, who is said to have a connection to Red.
"The Blacklist" Season 2 will premiere on Sept. 22 on NBC.
