You can't do epic shit with basic people.

I might be crazy, but I am seeing a resemblance here between the Baltic Sea and the symbol on Tom’s Box and Liz’s scar:

Feel free to tell me I’m crazy.  In searching Blacklist transcripts for the transcripts for KGB references to Liz’s mom (post here), I came across the dialogue in Episode 2x08 (the Decembrist) between Red and Berlin:

Red: Your daughter told me your name is Milosz Kirchhoff. All these years, Mr. Kirchhoff, you’ve believed with the blackest of hearts that I murdered your daughter. And yet here she is. The story was wrong, Milosz. Please enlighten me. What were you told and who did the telling? Berlin/Kirchhoff: It was in ’91. The Soviet union was falling apart. A small group of us. Members of the Politburo, the military, KGB, Stasi. Had a plan to push back the progressives, to stem the tide. We were meeting and discussing strategy when a bomb. Red: The Kursk Bombing

And it struck me that his last name, Kirchhoff, sounded more German than Russian.  So I looked up the origin of the name and found a famous Kirchhoff named Gustav who happened to hail from the city of Königsberg (formerly the coronation city of the Prussian monarchy  - though the capital was moved to Berlin in 1701 - and the easternmost large city in Germany until it was captured by the Soviet Union near the end of World War II).  Now known as Kaliningrad.  And the Wikipedia page for that city pulled up this map image of the Baltic Sea.  And the image looked awfully similar to Liz’s scar, the symbols on Tom and Gina’s boxes, and the blood stain?  (I’ve rotated the images to allow better comparison).

I was right! 

Holy crap!

I screamed out loud! My original post that I am reblogging is from five years ago! All these years and finally some payoff.
