Donald Ressler & Elizabeth Keen | Diego Klattenhoff & Megan Boone
THE B OY S C O U T AND THE P R O F I L E R | 5th A P P R E C I A T I O N T H R E A D

banner by Miranda.

A recruit from Quantico, Elizabeth Keen, and a well experienced agent of the FBI, Donald Ressler,
crossing paths, while being in completely different states of their lives.
There is mistrust and what seems like insurmountable deviations at first.
But soon enough the gap is becoming smaller, until one day they find themselves equals, peers.
They respect each other for who they are and what they managed to achieve. Will it at one point turn into love?
Will they move forward from the state of being just colleagues and friends?
We need to be patient and go along with them exploring the other and maybe one day realizing the other being the soulmate.

The first time they met ღ

Ressler: "Listen Keen. Whatever you think this may mean, I admire what you do and standing up for your husband
but I think we both know it's time for you to protect yourself."

Liz: "Listen to me. If you are going to do this you will go to jail for the rest of your life."
Episode 1x16

Liz: "You hungry? Tom's cooking so that means there be tons of extra food."

Episode 2x01

Liz: "You did good."
Ressler: "You're right. I was amazing."
Episode 2x02

Liz: That's a trade-off I'd make."
Ressler: "The fact that you're even thinking about what trade-offs you'd make, what rules you'd ignore.
The Agent Keen I met a year ago would have never done that."
Episode 2x03

Ressler: "What?"
Liz: "Nothing. You are late to work again. You seem a little edgy."
Ressler: "I'm fine. Thanks mom."
Episode 2x06

Liz: "I thought for a second why might lose you back there."
Ressler: "The prospect of having to live without me must have been terrifying."
Liz: "It was."
Episode 2x07

Ressler: "I gotta take him in. Are you hearing me? You had to know when you told me that this is were it was gonna go.
Liz, I can't be part of this."
Liz: "He's an informant. Like Reddington."
Ressler: "The only difference is, you are not in love with Reddington."
Episode 2x08

Liz: "Ressler I think I'm in trouble. I got a call from Metro PD. They got a missing person's case.
The D.C. Harbormaster. He showed up where I was holding Tom."
Ressler: "Whoa whoa, whatever you're about to confess Keen, don't."
Liz: "I didn't kill him. I didn't. It was Tom."
Ressler: "Tom? Why would Tom kill the one person in a position to rescue him?"
Liz: "To protect me. I realize how insane that sounds.
I met the Harbormaster the first time he showed up and gave him my card.
Told him I was there searching for two fugitives."
Ressler: "You lied to him."
Liz: "To explain why I was there. I had no idea Tom would kill him. I tried to stop it."
Ressler: "Was there witnesses? Somebody must have been watching Tom while you weren't there."
Liz: "There was someone."
Episode 2x11

Ressler: "What's going on with you and Reddington? You two having a lovers quarrel?"
Liz: "I don't trust him."
Ressler: "Reddington's untrustworthy?"
Episode 2x11

Liz: "Ressler, talk to me. Are you injured?"
Ressler: "I don't think anything is broken. I'm stuck. I can't budge this thing."
Episde 2x12

Ressler: "Come on Keen, what is it? I know you better than that. Where's your head?"
Liz:"That cop. The one investigating the Harbormaster. He's got evidence.
Ressler: "He found the body."
Liz: "And the witness."
Ressler: "Did he talk?"
Liz: "I think he did, yes."
Ressler: "It's your word against his."
Liz: "I've hidden behind the task force for as long as I can.
Told them I couldn't talk because it was classified but he is taking the case to a federal judge."
Ressler: "Tom is the one who killed this guy."
Liz: "But I was there. I should've.."
Ressler: "What? Stopped him? Liz you tried."
Liz: "They'll have enough to arrest me."
Ressler: "Then go to Cooper ask him to talk to the AUSA. The last he wants is some cop poking around asking questions about what we do.
Liz listen to me. Tom may have killed this guy but "FBI agent goes to prison" is the headline.
All they are gonna care about is taking a bite at of you."
Episode 2x13

Liz: "I can't do this."
Ressler: "Maybe you need some time. A couple weeks. When's the last time you took a vacation?"
Liz: "You're kidding right? I would have killed her if you hadn't shown up."
Ressler: "You would have done what you had to do to survive."
Liz: "Same as on the boat."
Ressler: "That was different. That was Tom. You tried to stop him."
Liz: "But I didn't. I hesitated. And maybe I thought for just one second it would be better for me if he were dead."
Ressler: "Liz.."
Liz: "No. That man had a family. He had a life. I'm gonna go to Wilcox. I'm gonna tell him everything."
Ressler: "How many people do you think are alive today that wouldn't be if it wasn't for the work we do. Fifty? A hunderd? How many Liz?
How many families haven't buried a mother, a father, brother, sister, childeren."
Liz: "That doesn't make it right."
Ressler: "No. It’s never gonna be right. See, the only question is the body count. So, you go ahead, you nail yourself to a cross.
And while you’re up there feeling sanctified, you consider how many people are gonna die
because this task force gets shut down and the rest of those animals on Reddington’s list are still out there feeding.
Liz: "Ressler.."
Ressler: "No. Don't. Don't ask me to feel your pain Liz. I got more than enough of my own."
Episde 2x13

Ressler: "Hey. Big day. Plans to celebrate?"
Liz: "Oh ah yeah I'm gonna go to Wing Yees with a few friends. It's no big deal."
Ressler: "Wow! Restrain yourself Keen. Cmon, smile, it's your birthday. You got plenty to celebrate."
Liz: "Thanks, you're sweet."
Episde 2x17

Liz: "Hey, what are you still doing here?"
Ressler: "I could ask you the same thing. What happened to dinner?"
Liz: "I just didn't feel like going out."
Ressler: "What's going on Keen?"
Liz: "You said earlier that I had so much to celebrate. You know that isn't true.
I mean I thought by the time I was in my thirties I'd have something to show for it.
I would at least be a prestiges profiler. I mean I was the top of my class.
I thought I'd have a loving relationship with someone. Maybe we would be raising a family together."
Ressler: "At least you got a dog. That's one up on me."
Liz: "I don't know who I am. I don't know if this is my birthday. I don't even know my own name. No, I know who I am.
I am the puppet of some high functioning sociopath. I don't even know what I am doing here."
Ressler: "What you are doing, is celebrating your birthday. With me."
Liz: "What did you.."
Ressler: "See, I called the restaurant. Thought I'd sent you and your friends a bottle of wine.
Turns out there wasn't a reservation. So I figured since you weren't to Wing Yee, I was bringing Wing Yee to you."
Liz: "I've been saving this for a special occasion."
Ressler: "Well, I'm honored."
Episde 2x17

Liz: "Reddington didn't give it to me. I found it in one the places he stays."
Ressler: "And you think this is a photo of your mother?"
Liz: "I don't know. That's what Reddington told me. But that girl, that is definitely me.
The agent back there, the CI he mentioned, that could be my change to find about something about the woman holding me in that photo."
Ressler: "Why would a Russian CI have information about your mother?"
Episde 2x21

Ressler: "Hey, hang on. You okay?"
Liz: "Yeah."
Ressler: "What happened?"
Liz: "He blindsided me."
Ressler: "Where did he go?"
Liz: "I didn't see."
Episde 2x21

Ressler: "Don't do this Keen."
Liz: "They won't listen to me."
Ressler: "We will make them listen."
Liz: "Did you get my blood test back?"
Ressler: "Positive for the virus."
Liz: "You see they can make anything look like the truth."
Ressler: "And if you run? What does that look like? If someone is setting you up, you are giving them exactly what they want.
You can fight this. But you gotta do it from inside the system."
Liz: "In about twenty seconds that camera is going to turn back on.
If you're gonna let me go, you gotta do it now before people see you standing here with me."
Episde 2x22

Liz: "Ressler.."
Ressler: "Where the hell are you?"
Liz: "Listen to me. Harold Cooper, he had nothing to do with this."
Ressler: "You need to turn yourself in."
Liz: "Did you hear me? He is innocent."
Ressler: "You are a wanted fugitive. You murdered the Attorney Gerenal of The United States. You have to come in."
Liz: "I can't."
Ressler: "Damn it Liz. Wake up. If you keep running you will be hunted down."
Liz: "I know."
Ressler: "By me. Don't make me do this."

Miranda, thanks so much for the new thread

I love the way you put the quotes in! I love it even more than before, really awesome

And it's all of them now, isn't it?

Thanks so much for all the hard work

I love it, really. I edited some stuff (some little things like adding another indent for one section because it was different to all the others in the OP and so on

Yeah, I'm crazy, right?

Miranda · 06-16-2015, 07:34 AM

You're welcome.

Yes these are all the quotes from S1 and S2.

Glad you like the placement of the quotes. I've been thinking to add something to it but I just don't know what and I don't want it to be too full.

Thanks for editing. Sometimes I don't see it anymore and I am kinda picky on those stuff too. I want it all to be perfect.

I also made some other changes don't you see them?

Lauren Helen Graham · 06-16-2015, 11:11 AM

I think it's really awesome without anything in between the quotes

I love it that way because yes, otherwise I feel it's too full.

And of course I see the other changes. You changed almost every single art and you made two new ones!

The header is new and the art before the previous thread section. I love both of them!

You even changed the color scheme

I like it better than the last one (although the last one was great, too).

Glad to hear that you're as picky as I am. And no worries. I normally look them over again after somebody set the OPs up

Miranda · 06-16-2015, 03:39 PM

So I should just leave this quotes this way?

I love that you see all the changes! I wasn't feel the old color scheme anymore and that's why I decided to change it. This is the only one I changed. I love this coloring so much. It is used a lot for OP's all over

and I felt like changing the header cause we got so many new great scenes between them.

lafcia · 06-16-2015, 11:51 PM

Honestly I don't remember exactly what the OP looked like before but now it looks spectacular!

Awesome job Miranda. One of the best OPs I've ever seen.

***One Thing Remains*** · 06-17-2015, 10:45 PM

tftnt Miranda

The OP is absolutely amazing

I don't think I have really looked at it lately but it is amazing!! I love the color scheme and arts

lafcia · 06-18-2015, 02:57 AM

You never know with tv shows and TPTB these days but do you think there is a piece of paper with show's milestones hidden in the drawer in writers room saying: Donald Ressler + Elisabeth Keen = OTP?

I doubt it.Keen2 is their OTP based on season 2. One of the EPs,John Eisendrath once said it's great if Tom and Liz end up together eventually in a BTS interview of season one.

The creator JB favorited a tweet that it's interesting to see a love triangle among Keens and ressler. I am worried they will use Ressler to go that route and create romantic drama,but he 's the one who still suffers heartbreaking in the end

Let's see how the story arc play out in S3.It's hard to say Keenler is endgame at the moment.

Miranda · 06-18-2015, 10:34 AM

Thank you Nika and Amy.

I would love it if they would have it but I have to agree with Dan, I don't think they do.

I don't know if Keenler will be endgame that can always change. It's not only about what one EP or writer wants they need to see the big picture. I would hate it if they would go for the love triangle between Ressler, Liz and Tom. A love traingle always ends bad.

lafcia · 06-18-2015, 12:27 PM

Well I am an optimist and choose to think that eventually it'll come down to Keenler being this show's OTP and endgame.

Realistically speaking however, anything can happen and they might as well award this disfunctional Keen2 relationship with a happy ending.

because as much as I want Ressler to be happy and preferably with Liz, they might use him a tool in this triangle and I hate that idea.

mycreativityuppedandleft · 06-18-2015, 12:48 PM

I would have said before Liz got trigger happy with Tom Connelly that I would prefer she start something with Ressler but that will be difficult now for obvious reasons. That said she shouldn't be with Tom either, he did kill an innocent man after all, a fact the show and Liz seemed to have forgotten about.

Yeah. That's why I am mad about season two. 180 opposite.The writers forget season one.
Not only EPs. Megan also said Liz and Ressler are just partners.

ChellyChelle · 06-18-2015, 05:25 PM

Is it bad that I wouldn't mind a love triangle (even for just one episode) so I can see a little Liz/Ressler action

That will satisfy my Keenler heart

ETA: And the OP is wonderful Miranda!! I literally read through it all.. love the quotes and images!!

Megan ever mentioned on twitter what happen on the show is on JB,JE and JS's hands.
JE,JB are in charge of the direction of the show and storytelling.they're showrunners.
If they have seen the big picture,they wouldn't drop what they've built up in season one,Tom would've not lose his badassness,but become a different person(a loving puppy poking around Liz,not having his own SL)
