The other thing that feels compelling about this plotline is that there really isnt an answer to Alisas problems.

Her life was ruined by a car crash but she didnt much like her life before the crash.

Nevertheless, her life has become a tornado of pain and death.

How to fix it?

She ends up arriving (through a window) at the exact same time as her daughter.

Jessica had warned the police to stay back, saying that only she could talk her mother down.

At first, it seems like shes right.

When Alisa says that Trish ruined her family, Jessica begs her not to ruin hers.

Alisa finally starts to chill out, just as Detectives Costa and Sunday barge in.

Costa trusts Jessica, but they cant take any chances.

Sunday begs Costa to take the shot, regardless of her.

He doesnt, which allows Alisa to take herself and her hostage backwards through the hospital window.

When Jessica and Costa looks down, they see Sundays bloody body sprawled on the pavement.

Alisa has already vanished.

(Recap continues on page 2)

Is Jessica Jones a superhero?

She certainly doesnt want to be.

How would getting powers change that?

Perhaps Jessica should just accept her helplessness, then.

Thats certainly what Costa advises.

He tells Jessica to stop interfering in this case and notes that heroism really isnt her style anyway.

So Jessica decides to go for the anti-hero tack.

Holding Alisa at gunpoint, Jessica demands that she go to the Raft or be killed.

I dont know about you guys, but Im fascinated to see what the finale holds!

Case notes:

-Im serious about that comparison between the behaviors of Jessica and Jeri this episode.
