An assassin chases Liz Keen while a Congressional hearing comes down on Agent Ressler. Liz is a target on an internet death list, and Raymond Reddington is trying to find out who's behind that as well as what's happened to his friend Dembe. 'Arioch Cain' is the new name on THE BLACKLIST, but who is he?
