^ that was so bittersweet poor thing was slowly getting her memories back. I just wish they'd crossed paths with Matt there, that would've been interesting but he arrived too late

I thought this episode was good.

I love the Defenders fighting against the Hand. Alexandra arrived in that restaurant rather quickly and screamed when Matt decided to fight Elektra instead. THAT SCENE IN THE PARKING LOT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It was also nice to see the rest of the secondary characters in this episode as the 4 leads realized that The Hand will target their loved ones next. Matt gets Karen & Foggy, Jessica gets Trish ( ) & Malcolm, Luke gets Claire & Danny gets Colleen. They're all together at the police station with Misty Knight and my brain just exploded.

I think this is the ep where we find out the 5 leaders of The Hand so it looks like both Gao & Alexandra share the same power as Bakuto. The other 2 members are new, I don't think we've met them on the other shows.

It was also nice to see Daredevil fighting it out with Jessica. This is the scene where Jessica rescued Trish and I thought for a while Trish will turn Hellcat. Damn.

i thought she did something with her hand and said "no way" right before DD showed up. i thought she thought then she might have superpowers but then it was never mentioned again after that

nah, it's just that the guy was about to stab Jess and Trish reached out in fear of losing her but there was nothing she could've done

But she knows Krav Maga so I was hoping she'd throw in a few punches at least. But yeah, that SL will have to wait. I'm excited for that though.

I'm glad Trish didn't get involved in the fight cause I'd lose it if she got hurt

And I guess we'll have to wait for her storyline in JJ S2.

I keep talking about ME in all the discussion threads. I need to stop. But that scene in the parking lot. When Matt said "Elektra?" and then Elektra stopped and her whole face changed. OMG. Then Matt tried to caress her face (CAUSE THAT'S THEIR THING) and then that Japanese guy came and she hit him instead of Matt. *cries again*

no, you don't my main focus on the show was on M/E as well and that scene had me on the floor and I loved that later in the episode the Japanese guy said that "he's the one she loved" and that she tried to protect Matt from him and that's what they were afraid of, cause they were able to erase memories and such but not true love

I'm kind of relieved that The Hand was not able to erase all of Elektra's memories.

I can't believe I forgot to mention in my short review about the end part of this episode.
