unless they plan on bringing in and developing another significant character it won't tied together. A completely unknown character being her father won't mean much to the audience.
I suppose Alan Alda could be her father and that is what Red is holding against him. lol [Reply]

Red could be the dissident that Berlin's daughter fell in love with...however I'm thinking maybe he is the handler (from his Navy Intelligence days) working with the dissident in the USSR. Red has guilt when that family (except Lizzy) is wiped out. As for the other internationals he has something on...maybe it's proof they had a role in the fall of the USSR, or tired to stop it.

It could be anything at this point. I imagine just about everything we see now is misdirection.
Just have to hope that the writers have a plan and do an interesting job. [Reply]

Red being Keen's father would explain Red's motivation. Berlin being Red's father would not really explain his actions regarding either. That's what I meant by convenient - seems like an 'oh shit' kind of swerve that wouldn't stand up too well logically. [Reply]

Nice touch at the end. Guess we can officially call him Dad now.
Not so fast. Could be the show telling us yes, its true what we have led you to believe or suppose to think.
This is smartly done show that doesn't make everything black and white tied up in a neat bow at the end. That makes them showing us the burns at the end not necessarily a tell. [Reply]
