"The Blacklist" season 4, episode 9 preview revealed already that someone in Red's elite team is hiding a secret identity being a mole. Latest spoilers hint that the mole's identity could be Samar. Why could he be the undercover agent?
Samar Could Be The Mole
"The Blacklist" season 4's fall finale ended with a cliffhanger that a mole has been working inside Red's (James Spader) team. A string of reports has persistently pinned down the name of Samar (Mozhan Marno) to be the undercover agent.
Why Samar Could Be The Mole
What are the chances that Samar could be the mole? "The Blacklist" season 4, episode 9 promo teaser reveals that Red discovers that someone from the FBI task force is hiding as a secret agent. Apparently, this puts the entire country in danger. Red informs Harold (Henry Lennix) about this imminent threat and immediately conducts a probe about the matter. After Red tells Harold, four faces appear on screen that include Ressler (Diego Klattenhoff), Liz (Megan Boone), Aram (Amir Arison) and Samar. One of them should be the spy. Later on, their faces come out one by one and Samar is the last to be seen.
Samar's Past
Before the clip comes to an end, Harold talks to someone ambiguously shown about his/her allegiance. Based on the hair shown, Samar is the perfect fit to the description. However, it remains a complete puzzle as to how Samar became involved with the terrorist group. To recall though back in season 2, Harold introduced Samar to the FBI task force following her successful extraction of Red from hotel in an attack helicopter. So far, the only thing revealed about Samar's background is that she is an Iranian-born Baloch who entered the Mossad after her parents were maltreated and killed by the Iranian government.
