Jessica Jones does not want to be a murderer.
Yet here she is, standing over the body of a manshe just blunt-force-trauma-ed to death.
Then, cutting through her clutter, comes one male voice saying: Make it look like a suicide.
Which Jess does, swiftly and convincingly.
Who was the guy telling Jess to stage this little suicide,the J.D.
But David Tennant is just so damn good.
She was built that way.
Shes fighting her nature; shes fighting herself.
Why not just give in to what shes capable of doing?
Meanwhile, Alisa is thrilled to wake up to a warm, reasonable female guard.
Using a blind date as a cover story, Jess confirms what Alisa suspects about Dales untimely demise.
Alisa fights back tears of pride.
Im so proud of you.
Ah, yes, what we all wish our mothers would say to us after we accidentally kill someone.
And Kilgrave isnt going anywhere.
Ill be in your dreams, too.
Kilgrave taunts her, like her insecurities made manifest: You just invite betrayal, dont you?
Jess breaks into Malcolms apartment, but hes not there.
(As we know, hes tied up in Trishs trunk.)
So, deeply flawed and dangerous, basically the opposite of perfect?
Jess arrives on the scene in time for Trish and Karl to tear out of the parking lot.
Malcolm tries to apologize, but Jess surprise, surprise!
is not having it.
Time to go back to where it all began: IGH.
Are you feeling nostalgic?
So many ideas were born here.
), but dont worry, Trish, hes been honing the procedure ever since.
Trishs experience could be totally different.
But Trish doesnt care.
Jessicas Kilgrave hallucination is gleefully telling her that Trish will look better than you in tights!
Her rapist, shouting at her from all sides.
Jess comesthis closeto choking a rando to death, but Malcolm intervenes.
As the police approach, he encourages her to go ahead without him.
As Karl injects these, like, Pop-Tarts of needles into Trishs back, her body convulses.
Blood spills from her mouth.
Kilgrave is so in her head now that Jess is just saying out loud the lines hes feeding her.
But she catches herself before she kills Karl.
She whispers to him, Your life is over, and then steps away, running to rescue Trish.
Karl pulls out the gun from Trishs bag.
His lab, he realizes, is useless as the man who built it.
He says he needs to destroy it.
Tell your mother Im sorry.
Jess runs out, a near-lifeless Trish over her shoulders, and holy shit that is one massive explosion.
Jess gets Trish to the hospital, though I wonder how she could survive any of this.
Wasnt the inhaler alone enough to kill her?
Just in case Jess changes her mind about letting him go, Malcolm assures her that he quits.
Kilgrave is still lurking as Jess sits alone in the waiting room.
Her mother will be heartbroken about Karl, but she still has me.
Kilgrave says what Jess surely fears: Like youre enough.
Im not my mother.
I can control myself.
Which means Im more powerful than you ever were.
Karls death and that mega-explosion has already made the news, which Alisa can see from her cell.
Alisa howls at the ache of her loss.
As I write in my notes, Oh no, oh no, Marilyn, kindly dont die!!
!Marilyn goes into Alisas cell, where she is promptly murdered.
Mrs. Jones is breaking out.
That whole deal with visitation rights is probably off the table, no?
Can this end for her anywhere but the Raft?
Or, if Jessica doesnt get to her first, her death?
