Misty Knight

decides to seek his help! But wait, the dirty cop is badly wounded and must be kept alive so he can testify? No problem! Luke just so happened to be hanging out with an over-qualified nurse who can keep a secret. I will admit, I wouldn’t have predicted that Scarfe would be shot or that Cornell would end up arrested this early in the season, but the majority of what happened in between these incidents was handled a little too clumsily for me. Another example of this was in keeping Misty and Scarfe apart for the entire episode, just to utilize the worn out trope of having two characters finally reunite as one of them speaks their final words. Had their relationship been a little more fleshed out, it would almost be forgivable. Aside from their cute office banter and Misty’s rationalization of why she owes Scarfe the opportunity to explain himself, their friendship remained too underdeveloped for his death to pack the proper emotional punch. Thankfully, the episode did offer at least one good moment for Misty. I was happy to see her character being given more to do than just stare into the distance, or obsess over the reason for Luke’s involvement in everything. The way she duped Perez into exposing his true allegiance proved just how clever and quick on her feet she can be. While I hope her power is further explored in the future, I’m content for now with her display of resourcefulness. Alfre Woodard’s Mariah is another character who could benefit from further development.…

It is subtly telling us that the readers will read about Gollum soon.

Their military involvement and prowess are both praised, but the knight’s career was given much greater detail than the squire’s. Over half of description of the knight is about his prowess in battle and where he has fought. The squire, in comparison, has only two lines dedicated to his military actions. The squire’s masculinity is an extension of his father’s, but while the son was still focused on battle prowess, he goes past the expectation of the being a good knight towards the pursuit of…
