Jessica finds a rather destructive way of coping.
Who doesnt love a love triangle?
Meanwhile, Jessica is busy getting thrown out of a bar, drunk.

Im a piece of sh, and sh stinks, she tells a very rude homeless man.
Shes drunk and violent, as we see in the subway when Jessica directly approaches Wendy and grabs her.
Do you know what shame feels like, Wendy?
she asks, holding her over tracks.
Especially after she accidentally drops Wendy onto the tracks and the train barely misses her.
Hes turned a new leaf, dressed for Jazzercise.
In reality, hes running to help beat the addiction.
Jessica knows immediately what happened, and its too much.
I cant do this, she says.
No, she needs to end it herself, and she has a plan.
Shes going to get herself locked up in supermax.
Theres no way that Kilgrave could come after her without his powers being caught on film.
But she has some things to take care of before heading behind bars.
They are, and its intense.
Too intense to take calls from Jessica.
Anyway, shes not ready to talk to Jessica yet.
Shes found the psychos new security team.
The plan is to use them to get to him and then get him into the hermetically sealed room.
Simpson sees a simpler option: kill him.
But they cant do that.
I want Kilgrave to live long and alone and despised until he wants to die but cant.
Jessica needs a lawyer, but her fetus-seeking friend is a little busy with another case.
Hogarths schedule opens up, however, once she hears that Wendy is likely to sign the divorce papers.
Its going to take something truly heinous.
I know that Robyn just lost her twin brother, but she is absolutely the worst.
She catches Malcolm coming out of Jessicas apartment and just wont let it go.
NEXT: To swim or fly…
The next stop on Jessicas Im Going to Prison Tonight world tour is Lukes bar, but hes gone.
Hes taken some time off, robbing Jessica of her healing moment.
You know what happens when you burn a bridge?
Youve got to learn to swim or fly.
Funny he should say that!
Because Jessica can kinda-sorta do at least one of those things.
Maybe means that she needs to embrace the hero inside her.
Hes just a barkeep.
Because as Wendy proves, there are other ways to get back.
In her case, she offers up some old emails that prove Hogarth bribes jury members.
Her demands are simple: 75 percent of Hogarths assets.
I said simple, not generous.
A minor mystery thats been chilling in the background of Trishs story is Whats the deal with her mom?
The answer to that question is less over-the-top than we might have imagined, but nonetheless evil.
Taking you in was the worst decision of my life, Mrs. Walker tells Jessica as shes leaving.
Man, I almost miss Robyn at this point.
The final stop is the tip-top of the Manhattan Bridge.
There hasnt been the overt this is my neighborhood stumping asDaredevil, and I appreciate that.
Jessicas love of New York City is more realistic, even in its small moments.
When Jessica returns to the office, she finds her plan lovingly foiled.
But are you sure, Jessica?
Because heroes say that No one else will die bit a lot.
While Trish and Jessica are catching up and talking about hiding bodies, Malcolm is out disposing Rubens.
A beautiful funeral doesnt guarantee heaven, he says to his body.
Yeah, shes hardcore like that.
Ive done something terrible, Jessica announces to the police precinct, before presenting Rubens head to Detective Clemons.
Mostly, because thats not how it works.
Hogarth isnt making things any easier for her.
Kilgrave has come to Jessica out of desperation and much sooner than he had intended.
He has some things to explain to her.
The first is that he has no intention of using his powers on her anymore.
This possibly ties back to his recent home purchase, which he conducted almost entirely above board.
Controlling her and then losing her taught him something: He loves her.
He hasnt won if it isnt Jessicas decision.
What he doesnt realize is that Jessicas choice is still an illusion.
Its the kind of power that we see in abuse cycles.
With Kilgrave still in her life, Jessica has no choice to make.
