The story here is great; the transition from season 3 to season 4 has been packed with action, plot hooks and twists and what have ya to make it extremely exciting. It has picked up the pace again after revealing that Elizabeth was still alive.
I am however extremely conflicted about one thing; the shooting of Mr. Kaplan. Reddington's behavior has changed a few times over the course of the past 10 episodes, and while fitting in most cases, I think his response to Kate's action is too much. The saving grace for his actions here is that Kate's plan backfired and as such he has a reason to be mad, but surely he must understand her rationale.
Shooting her was an extreme I did not expect. I did not like the fact that he did, and would rather have seen him let her live out her days in peace as he told in his monologue. I get that she knows everything about him, but I think killing her was not needed as she was clearly not on the wrong foot with him personally, and still acted in Liz' best interest.
On the other hand, it did bring us an amazing season worth of interesting conflict between the two, as she is shown to be alive (and will come back as antagonist in this season). Something good comes from it after all, but I liked Mr. Kaplan and will miss her as Raymond's right hand.
