Fish in the Jailhouse
Matt, Jessica, and Luke are taken to a police station. The police question them but don't get much out of them. Luke is unconscious but eventually comes out of it.
Elektra has a chat with the three remaining fingers of the Hand. They don't trust her. They question her motivations but ultimately they follow her lead.
Matt, Jessica, and Luke break out of the police station and make their way to the Midland Buiilding. They are confronted by Madame Gao, Murakami, and Bakuto. They fight but in the end bad guys create a distration and then vanish.
Elektra fights Iron Fist in the pit below the Midland Building. She opens by trying to talk him into opening the gate but he doesn't want to be a party to anything that the Hand is interested in doing. She claims that she isn't with the Hand but he isn't listening. They fight. She tricks him into punching the wall which opens the gate which is where the episode ends.
Misty Knight is severly underused or misused in this series. She seems to spend all of her time as the representative of the NYPD. All of her lines seem to be variations on: "What is going on? You have to tell me what you know." I thought she was an integral part of season 1 of Luke Cage but so far I feel as though she could be replaced with any generic police detective.
On the whole not a great episode. There were just a few too many plot holes and a little too much fast forwarding to satisfy me. Hopefully the last episode of this season will be better than this one.
