But he said el, didn't he? L maybe? Have I lost my mind?!?

Oh thanks! We call it the el in Chicago (for elevated) so I always get it wrong when I talk about NYC.

To be fair, Malcolm could have given her a little more warning that she was about to see a dead body. Like maybe he could have said, "Don't scream, I'm going to show you a dead body."

Great catch! All those Daredevil cops blended together for me.

But what if I love both Jessica AND Jupiter?!? (I know, I know, I'm the only one who does.)

I would love to learn when Jessica started to think about creatively fulfilling Kilgrave's orders. Because it's a thing she does frequently and easily for other people, as if she's had a lot of practice. If it wasn't while she was under Kilgrave's spell, do you think she sat around contemplating it after the fact?…

At this point I feel like 90% of stuff in the MCU is related to a failed Captain America experiment.

"Coat dude who clings to victim status" is such an amazingly well-observed character. I'm kind of obsessed with him.

Hey, he knows what love is! He's seen it on TV!

Great point! This is a very personal show for both the hero and the villain.

If Ritter has one flaw (and she's really fantastic overall), I think it's fight choreo. They end up shooting around it a lot and it feels off.

The support is much appreciated!

I agree with all of this. There's a runner all season of people who escape their Kilgrave mind control and immediately turn to Jessica to say, "I get it now."

I also think it's really interested in responsibility—there's a big rift between the characters who take responsibility for their actions (even when they weren't really to blame) and the ones who don't.

Thanks faraday!

Plus Jessica Jones just spends less time with its supporting cast than Daredevil did so even the weak characters (I'm looking at you Hogarth) aren't so glaring.

This bothered me SO much! Did they not have one take where he didn't blink?!?! Was that shot so important that they couldn't cut it out when they realized the continuity error?

Kilgrave was SO proud of himself for "Bitches, right?"

Good point!

I took the flashback as confirmation that Jessica broke his command that one time but wasn't sure if that meant she was free forever. But this episode made it seem like she didn't even realize she broke his command at all and thought it was just the bus accident that freed her.
