What is ‘The Blacklist’ Season 9 Episode 11 about?

The Blacklist Season 9 Episode 11 is titled “The Conglomerate.” According to epicstream.com, the episode synopsis reads, “An investigation into the Conglomerate, a group of former government-sponsored assassins, becomes complicated when the Task Force learns one of their own may have ties to the group. Red digs deeper into the events leading up to Liz’s death.”

Red is on what feels like a neverending quest for revenge against anyone responsible for Liz Keen’s death. A preview of episode 11 posted by Hollywood Life shows Red questioning a woman who might have answers. Red refers to this woman only as “Helen from apartment 3B.” Helen agrees to give Red information on Vandyke, but she denies that he ever mentioned Liz to her. Red doesn’t seem entirely convinced.

A previous promo clip for an unspecified episode showed a woman being slammed into a glass table. One Reddit user suspects that this clip could be from episode 11. “The scene of a woman being slammed into a glass table seems like Park with her husband tied up on the floor. That goes along with the 9.11 description,” they wrote.
