The Blacklist: Kick Ass Reddington Quotes - Part ONE / Anslo Garrick

By:  A (slightly) less hysterical than i was last night Baby Z

Ok.  So now that I have my bearings back a bit from last night’s (still!) INDESCRIBABLE Blacklist episode, and I’ve come to terms with the fact that we have 6 more GRUELING days left before part 2 airs on Monday (and is the last episode until 2014 - WTF ARE WE GOING TO DO BLACKLISTERS???) I feel like I can perhaps a little better convey the utter spectacularness (?) of Episode 9 than I was able to last night, which was…not at all.  

I cannot remember another TV show leaving me as breathtaken, heartbroken, almost hyperventilating from the conflicting feelings of the show just plain fucking kicking ass in every imaginable way possible and yet being completely overwhelmed with everything that was packed into 41 minutes last night.  The last 10 minutes?  Ohhhhhhhh my heart….. 

(The only thing I can think of that came close was the True Blood episode when Eric took off flying into the air to locations unknown, leaving Pam devastated, after the vamps were saved from vamp prison….)

Perhaps this will give you an idea of just how incredible Ep 9 was last night:  the quotes listed in this Part ONE edition of “Kick Ass Reddington Quotes” article?  All occurred before the show hit the 10-minute mark!

Without further ado - - this week’s Part ONE “Kick Ass Reddington Quotes - Anslo Garrick:


"Donald! There you are!! I told you I would’ve picked you up at the airport!”
–RR’s unusually overzealous greeting when Ressler surprisingly walked into the bar RR was at in Munich

“The poor fellow has to walk a terrible tight rope every single day - I feel obliged to get him drunk every once in awhile so I invited him down - to celebrate!”
–RR’s toast regarding Ressler  

“My plane’s faster.”
–RR being the BAD ASS THAT HE IS!!

“Why am I in handcuffs Harold, you’re violating our arrangement.”
–RR to Cooper 

“That condition is a constant.”
–RR’s response to Ressler about there being an imminent threat to Red’s life

“With all due respect, if the intel were worth having? Then I would have it.”
–RR to Malik’s offer to show him transcripts regarding Hilton Wells’ association with the Egyptians

“He needs me content. Land-locked. So he fed you phony intel to trigger your security protocol and now you’ve done exactly as he wished.  He got you to bring me here so that he could attack THIS facility.”
–RR once again schooling the clueless FBI and CIA Agents

“He almost exclusively works with a group of heavily armed, highly skilled mercenaries who call themselves ‘The Wild Bunch’ - former flag wavers made over in Frankenstein-like fashion into bloodless, country-less killers.”
–RR to the gang regarding Anslo Garrick’s entourage

–RR describing the seeming invincibility of Garrick

“And they’re in.”
–RR’s extremely irritated reaction when the facility loses power, indicating “The Wild Bunch” was, in fact, there for him
