The episode was completed with footage recorded by stars James Spader, Meghan Boone, and others at their home. The episode was then animated and edited remotely.
According to the synopsis for episode 19, the Task Force investigates an accountant who serves criminals in search of "violent" and "thuggish" brothers hired for his protection. Meanwhile, Lis is forced to make an important decision.
"The Task Force investigates an accountant who works for lucrative criminals in order to find the violent and thuggish brothers hired for his protection. Liz must make a momentous decision," reads the official synopsis on Spoiler TV.
"It started sort of as a joke, talking about how we should do it (the episode) as an old-school radio broadcast where we put the image of a crackling fire or a radio up on TV and the actors could voice it," executive producers Jon Bokenkamp said as quoted by The Washington Post.
"I was intrigued," Spader said. "I thought that it seemed like the right thing to do, to try and finish the episode in any way that we could, and not only the episode, but to end the season," he added.
Starring James Spader, Megan Boone, Diego Klattenhoff, Amir Arison, Hisham Tawfiq, and Harry Lennix, "The Blacklist" season 7 finale airs Friday, May 15 at 8:00 pm on NBC.
