+ Liz/Aram were adorable all episode. I love them together so much and it was really nice to get so much of them interacting. I loved their exchange in the car. Aram being rather snarky with her and her smiling about it and trying to give him some better advice. It was sweet. I also love that there was no chance of Aram not helping Liz despite not being pleased about breaking the law with her and that she isn't worried at all about him not having her back.
+ My favourite scene of the episode was Liz convincing Aram about her plan and just how blasé she was about it in contrast to Aram freaking out. Her amused eye-rolling at him, the way she said "Which you won't be" (hee), her promise to feel bad if he died and just how much she clearly thought he was being an over-reacting drama queen about getting (fake) hit by a car to steal from IA, was hilarious.
+ Also getting a laugh from me was Red's "Oh my god, you had the same idea!" to Ressler's skepticism.
+ I loved Dembe saving the security personnel from the elevator. Of course he would. Also his cheese platter.
+ "You didn't let him go, you put him in Reddington's debt. A place I wouldn't wish on my worst enemy." - Cooper. I found the Cooper vs Panabaker back-and-forth fun.
+ Lillian is Jennifer! That end reveal was pretty interesting. It is a little weird how easy it was for Liz to find her considering that Red never did manage it but I'm glad the show finally brought up this dangling thread. I do wish we had seen Lillian's reaction to Liz's revelation.
