In the next episode of "The Blacklist," Agent Elizabeth Keen (Megan Boone) starts to question her father Raymond Reddington's motives (James Spader) in helping to catch her husband's killers.

The trailer and promotional photos for the upcoming installment, which is titled "Tommy Wattles," were just released recently, and they show Elizabeth and Reddington going after a lead to catch Elizabeth's husband Tom's (Ryan Eggold) killers.

They enter an abandoned warehouse with their guns out as they carefully tread the facility. They are accompanied by Reddington's trusted bodyguard Dembe Zuma (Hisham Tawfiq) who has remained loyal to the criminal mastermind all these years. Elizabeth knows that she can count on her father for help, but now, she is starting to question his motives for coming to her aid every time. She still does not know that her husband died because he was investigating a suitcase of bones that belonged to Reddington.

The bones were stolen by Tom's killers who planned to use it as leverage against Reddington. Elizabeth thinks that Tom got involved in something that was not connected to her father. However, it seems like she may be barking up her father's tree as she becomes more suspicious of his actions. The identity of whom the bones belong to has not been revealed yet. It is speculated that it may have belonged to Elizabeth's mother. It remains to be seen if Elizabeth will be able to put the puzzle pieces together.

In the last episode, Reddington's prized US coin got stolen by Abraham Stern (Nathan Lane). The criminal genius was able to track Stern down and, not only get back his coin but also steal his huge inheritance. Stern was left holding the bag and was sentenced to prison.

"The Blacklist" season 5 episode 12 will hit the airwaves on Wednesday, Jan. 31, at 8 p.m. EST on NBC.
