    • Trivia
      While talking with Jessica, the car mechanic says "Dobre dziewczynki," which means "Good girls" in Polish.
    • Goofs
      There's an establishing shot of Manhattan (after Jessica walks away from her neighbor watching the ambulance) that shows the MetLife Building prominently in the skyline. Since this series takes place in the Marvel Cinematic Universe the Stark/Avengers Tower should be located where the MetLife Building is.

    Weaker than the first episode
    This episode was quite slow and didn't seem to accomplish much, considering it was almost an hour long. There was a lot of character development surrounding Jessica Jones and Luke Cage, and in particular their relationship in the show. It was very slowly building on the case surrounding Hope, but even though that was the focus of the episode, it didn't really go very far. I'm starting to wonder if 55 minutes is slightly to long for this series, as this episode was full of scenes (mostly involving Jessica's neighbours) that held no point and felt very forced.

    The slightly disconcerting attempts at humour continued in this episode, thoroughly convincing me that humour in this series isn't a good idea - at least, if it doesn't get better.

    Kilgrave continued to be teased, and honestly he looks utterly terrifying. He is mostly the only reason I'm continuing this show (aside from general curiosity for the intriguing plot), and this episode had a very convincing, if brief, tease of his character.
