The Blacklist season 9: Fans 'rumble' identity of Cape May hallucination woman

The episode ended after she walked back into the waters and this is where fans were made aware, they had watched Red’s hallucination.

“When he runs again after her trying to stop her from going in the water for the second time, he hallucinates again with a Katarina, but this time, he recognizes who she is,” they stated

The hallucination told him: “You had no choice, it was me or Masha,” to which he apologised before she continued, “Raymond, you did save me. Through her. It was the only way. You chose well.”

The very observant viewer noticed: “but THIS hallucination uses her LEFT hand to touch his cheek. This hallucination is not about Russian Katarina, it is about American Katarina, telling him that by saving Masha, he saved her.”

The Blacklist season 9 premieres on Thursday, October 21 on NBC. A UK release date is yet to be announced.
