However, Cooper's health will undoubtedly take a backseat to the Fulcrum storyline. The mysterious organization/object was first mentioned in "The Decembrist," and it looks like Finch's final confession will become Red (James Spader) and Liz's (Megan Boone) new Berlin. Set to play a major role in Feb. 1's "Robert Grady" and Feb. 5's "Luther Braxton," the mystery of the Fulcrum will be uncovered by at least one character by the end of the Thursday episode, according to Spoiler TV.
