Episode Summary & Review
Summary
A woman, Audrey Freeman, hires Jessica to get photos of her cheating husband. Jessica suspects that it’s another of Kilgrave’s traps and follows Audrey to confirm that she’s legit. Meanwhile, Trish’s radio show brings in a number of Kilgrave’s victims, and Jessica finds a clue to Kilgrave’s spy.
Our Take
A slower, more paranoid hour that works better than it should. The case of the week is thin, but it doubles as a tense test of Jessica’s sanity, and the victims calling into Trish’s show give the Kilgrave fallout a weight the show needed. Some stretches feel padded, yet the ending lands a genuinely unsettling gut punch. Worth it for that alone.
