There’s a new Iron Fist in town, and he’s itching to make his presence felt. Meanwhile, Ward calls in a favor, and Joy considers her options.

So, with Davos now in control of the Iron Fist, what’s he planning on doing? The episode has a few different parts but the majority of it is Davos deciding he’s going to do what Danny didn’t which is take the war to crime and bring peace and stability.

While this might seem like a silly way to take the character it actually makes a lot of sense based on some of the background we’ve learned about the character this season. He obviously wanted to be Iron Fist to start but he feels like a failure and this is a way he’s convinced himself he can succeed and restore honor to his family. It’s a motivation and an action that we’ve seen many times before but here it’s working in its own way.

The episode also circles around the rest of the characters.

Joy is convinced that Davos is dangerous… Mary gets tied into it.

Danny and Ward have a bonding moment as Danny recovers from getting the crap beat out of him. It’s actually a touching moment and humanizing for both of them. While not perfect, it adds a bit to each character.

And the bigger thing is Misty and Colleen teaming up to find Danny and then attempt to find Davos through Joy. Seeing Misty and Colleen team up is fantastic and only makes me want a “Daughters of the Dragon” spin-off series even more. Both give us some solid action and they play off of each other quite well.

And while this is what I’d call a bridge episode it dovetails into the next one quite nicely ending on an creepy note and making it clear it’s only going to get more difficult for Danny.

Overall Rating: 7.40
