Luke isnt the only hero were shadowing in the premiere.

We also check in with Misty Knight.

Even if she thinks shes 100 percent, the people around her dont share that same mindset.

They are really,reallyintimate together!

Who gives a shit what anybody thinks?

He looks on with an expression that isnt entirely clear just yet.

Luke still cant acknowledge the fact that hes different from the Harlemites around them.

You would think hed listen to the one person in Netflixs Marvel enterprise who knows.

Turns out their relationship is complicated, at best.

His main antagonist, on the other hand, is running a few games of her own.

But it remains to be seen whether Mariahs juggling the moving parts as well as shell need to.

For starters, the Jamaican gang(s) in Brooklyn seem to be setting their sights on Harlem.

Also, shes in the middle of negotiating an arms deal between three different gangs.

She wants out of that life.

But one avenue shes taken full control of is Luke Cage.

Because of course this is the evening that Claire decided to trail her partner.

It puts Luke in a bad spot.

He has no choice but to turn tail.

And Mariah waves him away, taking solace in at least one victory for the evening.

Once theyve left the club, Claire and Luke have another big row.

She followed him so you can provide an assistance.

That gives her access.

Im your backup, not just your woman, she tells Luke, you dont just leave me behind.

If anything, the pressure between them has only increased.

But, for the time being, Luke can return to playing hero.

Shes thankful for the assist, but her boss a guy named Captain Ridenhour isnt.

Make me believe again.

He leaves after telling Misty, Its good to see you back where you belong.
