Jessica Jones - 'AKA You're a Winner'

I love these helmets. They're so... WWII.

Jessica's Kilgrave hunt is once more interrupted as Luke hires her to find someone, the brother of a friend, he says, but Jessica suspects something more behind it. This gives us a chance to see Jessica get her PI on, but when it turns out that he's doing this in exchange for information on the death of his wife, whom Jessica murdered on Kilgrave's instruction, she might be wishing she wasn't so good.

Meanwhile, Hope has been beaten up in prison, which she turns out to have paid for in an attempt to miscarry Kilgrave's child. Jessica promises to do a number on Jeri's wife in order to secure the divorce if Jeri will arrange an abortion for Hope. If this wasn't bleak enough, Jeri bribes the prison doctor to have the foetus delivered to a lab for reasons, perhaps trying to recoup some of her costs by flogging super-stem cells to nuHydra (and I find it weird and slightly sad to contemplate that this series exists in the same universe as Grant Ward.)

Jessica tries to get a jump on Luke and secure the information ahead of him, but it turns out to be incriminating evidence against the bus driver. When Luke sets out for revenge, Jessica tries to stop him, eventually confessing her own guilt - that Kilgrave made her dig up something that Luke's wife had buried, then kill her. Luke... takes it better than he might have done, I guess, but not well.

And Kilgrave uses his power to win a million at poker so he can buy a house, peeling back the wallpaper to reveal Jessica's growth chart. It was at this point that I decided when we move we're sanding down the door frame with Arya's growth marks on, just in case.

Jessica Jones continues to be dark and compelling in equal measure. I'm a little disappointed that as well as being unbreakable, Luke is shown to be stronger than Jessica, but it's a minor quibble given that Jessica's powers aren't her defining quality.
