    Good

    It was a great episode. The contrast between Kornel and Luke is beautiful. Luke's power seems greater. But I do not like to show a superhero immortal, even Wolverine dies, but not Luke Cage!

      The video of the new military tech features Polish. Roughly translated, the man says, "Don't worry, you will be safe. Everything will work. Stand there a bit longer. Stand...good, yes."

      At the beginning, Jidenna is performing "Long Live the Chief", which shouldn't exist, or at least shouldn't mention Barrack Obama, as in the Marvel Cinematic Universe Obama was never president. Instead, the president at the time of Obama's presidency is Matthew Ellis, played by William Sadler in Iron Man 3 (2013) as well as in a few episodes of Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. (2013).
