Raymond Reddington discovered that Marvin Gerard betrayed him
In The Blacklist Season 9 Episode 20, Red finally discovered that his long-time associate Marvin Gerard was behind Liz Keen’s death. He is also the person who has been blackmailing Harold Cooper. Marvin explained that he was always loyal to Red, but he couldn’t stand the idea of Liz taking over his empire. He felt that Liz was unqualified, so he organized her murder. Marvin then did everything he could to deter Red from digging into her death.
Red had Marvin seemingly cornered on his plane in episode 20, but Marvin had an escape plan. He showed Red a video of Mierce with a sniper pointed at her and threatened to kill her if Red didn’t let him off the plane. Weecha lunged at Marvin, but suddenly collapsed and Marvin made his escape. Now Red and the task force must hunt him down in the remaining two episodes.
