"Mr. Kaplan is one of the few characters that Red almost, almost relaxes with.
And you feel, almost could say anything to. I think there's, I think it's a feeling they confide in each other.
They know a lot about each other. I think they know a lot of each other's secrets.
And that is a bond. A really close bond I believe" - Susan

Mr. "Kate" Kaplan is a very mysterious woman. She has worked for Raymond Reddington for many years. She is Reddington's personal "cleaner" who comes in to scrub crime scenes. She helps Reddington clean up after he kills Diane Fowler. She also disposed the bodies of Lucy Brooks and the Cowboy after they are found by Reddington's people. Mr. Kaplan faked Liz's death with the knowledge and help of Liz, Tom and Nik to help Liz and her daughter escape Red's lifestyle. Red finds out that Mr. Kaplan faked Liz's death after an associate of him tells him that Mr. Kaplan made arrangements for Tom and Agnes to leave the country. Red demands that Mr. Kaplan tells him where Tom and Agnes are and tells her that Alexander Kirk is after them. Then Mr. Kaplan reveals that Liz is still alive and is with Tom and Agnes. She is shot in the head by Red but survives and is held hostage by an unknown man.

Dang you Photobucket

Thanks for the new one!

Lauren Helen Graham · 07-05-2017, 05:22 AM

Photobucket really is a pain in the a**

And you're welcome. Unbelievable that she's reached her 8th thread already

I'm wondering though if this thread will die down at some point since she's dead now.

I don't believe this. She's not dead for me

I'll keep hoping for her return at least untill the end of 6-th season...

Lauren Helen Graham · 07-05-2017, 12:34 PM

I know she isn't for you. But she is for me

I doubt she is not dead and still I think that whatever she set in motion will follow us a lot longer from now on.

girl under the floor · 07-05-2017, 01:31 PM

I actually think she's dead this time as well

Miranda · 07-06-2017, 05:12 AM

TFTNT! I will fix the character and couple OP's tomorrow. I finally have time then.

I really hope it won't die down. There is still so much to talk about.

nsuzd · 07-06-2017, 07:00 AM

Does anyone think Kate let the key down to the floor in Debt Collector for purpose?
And the whole scene in the school with a gun was just to these kids will remember and told ... To send this information indirectly to the Task Force?
Because after Red shot at her, Kate wasn't worried about anything other than to separate Liz from Red.
And suddenly such a flash of uncontrolled emotions ...
I think Kate did it deliberately and coldblooded to make a trace.
So while Red'd needle about fly and spider - Kate just waiting...

Lauren Helen Graham · 07-06-2017, 11:17 AM

Miranda, you did some things with the OPs already, right?

At least with this one or did I just miss that you added Annie into the OP?

Kate is just gone... And yes, she set up some stuff to make Red's life hell. I think we're all aware of it. It doesn't change the fact though that she died there. Her body was floating there and I'm sure the FBI got her out of the water...

Miranda · 07-08-2017, 03:07 AM

Yes I set this one up almost completely again. I only need one more thing but I need to search for something new and yes I added the gif-set of Kaplan and Annie. I thought it would fit nicely

Fangirl49 · 07-08-2017, 07:16 AM

I love the gif of Kate and Annie

Lauren Helen Graham · 07-08-2017, 12:44 PM

Miranda, the quote of the moment art is still missing

What is it or what was it exactly? That's the one thing you need to look for again, right?

Miranda · 07-09-2017, 02:22 AM

Glad you love the gifs Marilyn.

Yes and I set them up just now Kris.

Lauren Helen Graham · 07-09-2017, 02:36 AM

I just saw it when I was scrolling down

Thanks so much! I love what the OP looks like now.

Miranda · 07-10-2017, 11:32 AM

Thanks. I spiced it up a little with some more gifs.
