Luke Cage Season 2 Episode 7 Review

Luke Cage Season 2 Episode 7 Review Podcast “On and On” Spoiler filled Synopsis

Directed by Rashaad Ernesto Green

Written by Nicole Mirante-Matthews

A bruised Luke Cage (Mike Colter) manages to escape his watery end, but still reeling from the showdown on the bridge with Bushmaster (Mustafa Shakir), finds that Piranha (Chaz Lamar Shepherd) has gone missing from his father’s church. Luke teams up with Misty Knight (Simone Missick) to look for him, only to find a gruesome scene with Piranha decapitated and his head left in a piranha infested fish tank. He had been captured by Bushmaster who used him to strip Mariah Stokes/Dillard (Alfre Woodard) of all her money and assets. Elsewhere the hunt for the snitch heats up after Mariah realises that Captain Ridenhour (Peter Jay Fernandez) has an informant. As Comanche (Thomas Q. Jones) and Ridenhour meet, they are confronted by Shades (Theo Rossi) who regretfully removes the police informant from the board.  Despite this victory for Miriah, she flees the club with Tilda (Gabrielle Dennis) after Bushmaster reveals his endgame. As he corners Mariah and her daughter in her house he leaves it burning with them in it as revenge for the Stokes family burning his mother alive. As he claims Harlem’s Paradise an unexpected saviour arrives to rescue Mariah and Tilda from the ashes.

  1. Chemise

    Hello. Chemise here from Savannah, Georgia (Luke’s birthplace. Yay me) . I’ve been listening to your podcast for quite a few seasons but I’ve never left a message for some reason. Anywho, just writing in to let you know that I really enjoy your podcast. It’s one of the podcasts that keep me going while at work. I’m a marathoner when it comes to these shows, so it tickles me to hear all the theories y’all come up with.

    I feel as if this episode does a good job of both building up the antagonists and creating pathways for them to evolve.
    Mariah has hit rock bottom, so now we wait to see if she will rise to the occasion, or if she will wallow. Bushmaster, has become extremely overconfident. Perhaps he feels that he has earned it, but as you all noted he keeps making mistakes. Keeping Piranha as a hostage would have made more sense legally. I do suppose he expected Mariah to die in the fire, leaving no one to contest his newly gained riches. Too bad for him he didn’t finish off Luke properly. I’d say he has now become the man on the hill. He really should look out for the people aiming for his crown. And poor Shades…It’s odd for me because Shades is very sinister. I don’t like him very much as a person, but he is a villain, so good job writers. Still, out of all the antagonists in this show (first season included) he is the biggest bastard by far, very serpent like despite not getting a snake name. I get the impression that he’s always plotting while waiting for an opportunity to strike. I’d say that extra gunshot was about all one could expect from Shades in the moment. I’d dare to say that it was all he could do to keep it together and that shot was him losing his cool. But I’ll stop now before I enter spoiler town.

    Absolutely adored seeing Misty fight with her new arm. She’s one of my favorite marvel characters, and I’ve always felt the comics never did her justice. I’m dying for a Daughters of the Dragon tv show. Marvel’s done a bit better greenlighting projects featuring underrepresented groups in recent years. Maybe if ratings stay decent for the Netflix shows they will take a chance on Misty and Colleen. (with some Claire Temple as White Tiger on the side?)
