It was also said during the Season 3 finale that Kirk had an agreement with Mr. Kaplan, played by Susan Blommaert, to set up a meeting with Liz so they could have that father-daughter heart-to-heart talk.

Liz Keen may have faked her death to get away from Red, but he’ll be the one to come to her rescue when The Blacklist returns.
It has been said in the series that Liz shot her father dead while defending her domestically-abused mother. But in “The Blacklist” Season 4, she will be thrown in his company unexpectedly.
As for Kirk’s unnerving claim, show makers Jon Bokenkamp and John Eisendrath had earlier said that there was no reason for not believing it, as Kirk has arrived with his claim at a time when Liz already knows that Red is not her father. They are also wondering what will happen when Red finds out that Liz deliberately faked her death to get away from him. This left viewers with a ton of questions: could Kirk be telling the truth? It is not yet sure, however, if his intentions are really good or wants to take revenge on Liz for putting one over him.
As Game & Guide recalls, Kirk revealed that he was her father last season. These questions may finally be getting answers, going by the new exclusive Blacklist 4 trailer.
“It’s time to uncover Liz’s twisted past”, the trailer teases, hinting that the next season of the NBC series will reveal more of her backstory and perhaps explain why Kirk chose to find Liz and introduce himself as her father.
In addition to the father-daughter relationship of Kirk and Liz, Season 4 of “The Blacklist” shall also zero in on various other plotlines as well as several shocking revelations. “I also think they understand why she did what she did on a certain level”. This man shows up in her life and says he’s her father.
“The Blacklist” Season 4, according to Bokenkamp, will feature turns, surprises, identity and secrets, Entertainment Weekly reported. Hopefully, they see we’re not going to abandon that relationship, no matter how strained it becomes.

“We can not unpack a story point like she thinks she shot her father and then introduce a new element that completely negates it, because that would damage our relationship with the audience and their trust in the story that we’re telling. But that relationship is everything”, he told Deadline.
