Death is a major part of The Blacklist Season 5 narrative, which is understandable since the show is dealing with some very tough and nasty characters. However, it can be argued that this season seems to be the bloodiest of them all as fans have already seen that the showrunners are willing to sacrifice even the show's major characters just to keep the ball rolling.

For instance, Tom Keen was already killed on the first part of The Blacklist Season 5. Responding to Cinema Blend's question on why the character had to die, executive producer John Eisendrath simply replied that Tom was supposed to die in the pilot in the first place. The fact that he lasted that long may be considered as some form of kindness from their part as they've given the character all the chances they could - such as "opportunities with Liz to love, to hate, to fight, to get divorced, to annul their marriage, to get remarried." It may sound harsh but it works; fans as just as glued to the series today as they were in the past.

Will A Major Character Die Before The Blacklist Season 5 Finale?

Which brings up to mind the rather unsettling possibility that, perhaps, the series might not be done with the killing just yet. Pursuing the thought further down its most disturbing permutation, will a major character die before The Blacklist Season 5 ends?

The answer, of course, is that it is highly possible and that some favourite character might still meet a gruesome end in the remaining episodes of The Blacklist Season 5. In fact, the previous episode has already produced the likely candidate for such fate.

In The Blacklist Season 5 Episode 20, which is titled "Nicholas T. Moore," Samar was abducted while attempting to protect a young girl. While the identity of her abductor remains unknown, the actor who played his role "has played villains on everything from Stranger Things to The X-Files." It is likely he was cast into the role because the EPs want a perfectly evil villain, the type who can kill Samar without giving it much of a thought.

In fact, a recently released The Blacklist Season 5 Episode 21 trailer hinted that Samar just might meet a watery end. In the clip, Samar, who was trapped in a van, desperately tried to contact her team. However, the van appears to be slowly sinking in water and Samar can be seen frantically trying to open the van's windows. Is Samar going to die next episode?

The Blacklist Season 5 Episode 5 will be airing on May 9, Wednesday, at 8 p.m. ET on NBC. Be sure to stay tuned for updates.
