The Cleaner [Mr. Kaplan | Susan Blommaert] #10: "Everyone wants me to make things easier for them. Cleaner. That's what I am after all, the Cleaner."
x Mr. "Kate" Kaplan (Kathryn Nemec) 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. Before she started working for Red, she was hired by Katarina Rostova to be Liz's nanny. She became friends with Katarina after discovering she was a Soviet spy and learned that she was having an affair with Reddington. When Katarina was forced to flee and abandon her daughter, Kaplan left Liz with her foster father, Sam. Later, she fell in love with a woman named Annie Kaplan, and assumed her surname after Annie was murdered in front of her. She then joined Reddington's employ to protect Liz, on the understanding that she would always place Liz's interests ahead of his. 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. She later recovers and leaves. She exhumes all the bodies she buried for Reddington over the years, intending to use them to destroy him. She confronts Red, she declares that it is impossible for the two of them to coexist. After that Kaplan attacks the task force, first attempting to steal a copy of Reddington's immunity agreement with the DOJ and give it to Julian Gale. When Reddington foils this plan, Kaplan agrees to testify about Reddington's crimes to a grand jury. Before doing so, she exhumes a suitcase containing the skeleton of an unknown individual. After the grand jury is dissolved through Reddington's machinations, Kaplan is cornered by the FBI and Reddington. The latter refuses to kill her and admits his remorse for trying in the first place, but she tells him that she has arranged for an accomplice to give Liz "the truth" after her death, then she commits suicide.
"Everyone wants me to make things easier for them. Cleaner. That's what I am after all, the cleaner."
Kate and Annie Kaplan ღ "Well, I guess that makes you Mr. Kaplan." x "It's alright dearie. I'm used to cleaning up after you."

Me, too And of what she went through when she was younger. I really feel sorry for what happened to Annie. And I'm wondering if Red knew.

Red knew about Annie. They talked about the night Annie was murdered on one of the episodes. I just can't remember which one.

So totally changing the subject
It made sense for Red not to think that Kaplan betrayed him. He had no reason to think that Liz faked her death. That whole situation and him being surprised made perfect sense. But now, he has every reason to believe liz called in the tip. He knows he was set up. He knows it has to be someone close to him. If he had even suspected Liz faked her death, he would have figured out quickly it was Kaplan. When he did learn about Tom, look how quick he discovered Kaplan lies. __________________

True, she told him that and he was kind of away, right?
Do you think he knew Annie in person? ITA with you, Marilyn It all made sense with Mr. Kaplan. Even we could have believed it (I didn't I want to mention here ). There was no indication on what really happened. But now, it's so different. __________________

Totally agree with you too Marilyn.
And yes I think Red knew Annie in person. But I do think Red and Kaplan became closer after Annie got killed. __________________

You think he knew Annie? Wasn't it afterwards that he contacted Kaplan? Wasn't that how it happened in her memories?

I really had a feeling that he knew her but I could be wrong. Maybe I should re-watch the scene where they are talking about Annie.

You know, when they are talking about Annie, he really seems to know her. Or I at least got the impression he did. But when we got her flashbacks, Red wanted to talk to her after Annie was dead Right? I really need to check on that again.

Yes that is what I thought he knew her as well.
And yes I recall that too, that after Annie died that he wanted to talk to her. And that is when she started working for him right? or was she working for him before that? __________________
