Darned if I'm not finding those two crazy kids to be quite cute together these days, especially during the hair and the bug scenes.

It's so hilarious that Khalil would rather risk being burned/shocked than have Jen come near him with a knife.

As much as I like this show, the inconsistency with powers during fights always irks me when I notice it. Like Khalil is supposedly super strong, and took out that whole crew of 100's like nothing in hand-to-hand. But is Cutter also just as strong or just really good with knifes? A couple of times I thought for sure Khalil knocked her out but she just got right back to throwing knives at him. And with his strength he should've been able to pull the knives pinning him down right out of the table, without even needing Jen to get them off. Anyway, that's trivial enough considering how well everything else worked.

About time somebody else noticed that Black Lightning and the Pierce family is definitely connected.
