Go To

Directed by Steven A Adelson

Written by Daniel Voll

Red leads the team to their next criminal, assassination mastermind Milton Bobbit, or as he's known to the list, "The Undertaker".

Milton Bobbit (No. 135) provides examples of:


  • Asshole Victim: Milton Bobbit's final victims are personal hits on the people responsible for testing a flawed drug.
  • Chekhov's Gun: The recordings made by the “Man with the Apple” make a reappearance. Reddington gives them to Liz who’s investigating her husband.
  • Murder, Inc.: The titular Milton Bobbit runs this out of his insurance work, offering terminally ill people financial security for their families in exchange for committing assassinations, then killing themselves to let the trail go cold.
  • Murder-Suicide: The Undertaker hires terminally ill people as hit people, so they have fewer qualms against killing themselves after killing their marks.
  • Terminally-Ill Criminal: Milton uses his insurance work to find terminally ill people that he can use as assassins, taking care of their families financially in exchange.
