Sweet mother of God, Elektra is a FCKING PSYCHO.

Officially stanning for Elodie, the woman is AMAZING, her portrayal of Elektra is ABSOLUTE PERFECTION, I CAN'T EVEN FUNCTION AFTER THIS, I JUST WANT TO REWIND EVERYTHING.

And the parallels between M/K and M/E - you have Matt and Karen's relationship developing in such a sweet, natural way, then the flashbacks to the beautiful mess that was (and is) Matt and Elektra's... it's just too perfect.

Speaking of perfection, have I mentioned how fcking AMAZING Elodie is?

And the ending, with Elektra showing the Daredevil costume she took.

"Do I need to push you this time?"

THIS IS TOO MUCH.

Elektra is amazing. Just amazing.

I love what's happening with Matt and Karen.

Matt and Elektra together.

FLASHBACK ALREADY. (On the side, Charlie's wig is a bit annoying, LOL).

Kill me now. I don't think I can survive this ep. This doesn't look like how they met in the comics though. Understandably, Matt is pissed that Elektra just popped up.

Foggy being adorable and just watching MK talk. Karen took Frank Castle's family picture? Aha, the bank. There was a big deposit. This already screams Elektra.

Flashback again, Matt & Elektra breaking in the gym. Is this pretend fight foreplay? The sex scene was done well. Still no nudity this show. I am so excited for the fight scenes already, Elodie already looks like she can bloody fight.

Karen is back at Ben's office and it's great that he was mentioned. Still bitter about him being dead.

Ugh, Foggy's ex is back. Go away girl! Oooooh, Jessica Jones mention! And we finally find out why the DA, in particular Reyes, is hell bent on the Frank Castle/Grotto case.

AAAAAHHH, Matt & Elektra in casual clothes and acting very couple-y in this flashback and talking French. LOL, that was Roscoe Sweeney's house?

I like how the ep is intertwining between Matt's past life with Elektra and his current life now with Karen. Both girls are VERY different but I think Matt prefers his present life now. Whatever he had with Elektra back then was very messy and wild.

LOL, my psycho bitch is happy that Matt is punching Roscoe. I like that they're showing how different they are and how similar they can be at the same time. I think they're perfect IF only their relationship isn't so toxic. Also, love the chemistry between Charlie & Elodie.

LOVE the end part. Obviously Elektra does know Matt and Matt is scared to admit it himself, especially not to her. I'm gonna watch another ep because I can't wait for the fight scene...

I love the contrast between Matt/Elektra and Matt/Karen.

you happy about that?


The Matt/Karen flirting is really cute. I am enjoying them a lot more than I originally thought I would!

Even something seemed off with Elektra in the flashbacks, not really sure why Matt was interested there but I guess he found her intriguing. They were pretty hot in the ring though!

Foggy is so funny. Love his humor. I didn't mind seeing his ex again.

I cant watch more episodes tonight but that ending definitely made me want to!

Me neither, in fact I think Marci was a lot more friendly this season. I enjoyed their little banter.
