.....Mozhan Marnò.....Samar.......her choice to leave....my guess is they never really gave her a real good storyline.......
The Blacklist: Mozhan Marnò to Exit
......The Blacklist‘s task force is officially down one crucial member: Mozhan Marnò, who has played Agent Samar Navabi since Season 2, is leaving the NBC drama, TVLine has learned. Friday’s two-hour episode served as Marnò’s final installment with the series.
The fate of Marnò’s character has been uncertain since the start of Season 6, when it was revealed that Samar never fully recovered from a car accident that left her underwater (and left her brain without oxygen) for several minutes. In Friday’s episode, Samar learned she has been suffering from vascular dementia, a condition that has been prompting a series of mini-strokes that continuously worsen her brain.
Samar’s handlers at Mossad eventually learned of her declining health and, fearing that Samar’s fuzzy memory would eventually become a liability for the agency, put a hit out on her. She became the target of a mercenary group called the Osterman Umbrella Company — and after realizing the assassins would stop at nothing to kill her, Samar decided to leave town.
Aram initially planned to come with Samar, following her to whichever corner of the world would let them safely assume new identities. But Samar, unwilling to let Aram’s life be ruined by her own problems, opted to make her escape alone, and she enlisted Red’s help to do so. (“I will never forgive you for this,” Aram spat at Red — after punching him in the face! — upon learning that he’d conspired with Samar.)
“I love you, Aram,” Samar told her fiancé on her flight out of the country. “I won’t let you slip away.”
Series creator Jon Bokenkamp had warned viewers about Samar’s complicated storyline back in January, when it was first suggested that Samar’s health issues were not resolved just yet.
“This is The Blacklist, so weddings don’t typically go great. Romances are often rocky,” Bokenkamp said of Samar and Aram’s engagement, adding that Samar’s medical woes would be “a real doozy. It will change the landscape of the show in a great way.”
one less character...........?!
