Re: Bad writing in the Defenders

[(Anonymous)]

To me that looked like it was going to be his intention, as he put his hand on his sword when they were discussing how the Hand needed the Iron Fist for something. But then the others spoke up about keeping Danny there and he stayed quiet. I was surprised until he made his move later, but it makes sense in retrospect. He was probably expecting to have to fight the others in order to kill Danny, but when he realized they were going to incapacitate Danny in some way themselves and hold him there, he took the opportunity to wait until he had fewer of them to deal with before making his move.

If there's bad writing to complain about in that situation, I would say it's the others thinking it'd be a good idea to incapacitate Danny and leave him vulnerable to an attack. XD But it gave us that great Luke and Danny scene afterwards so I'm not going to complain TOO much. (I'm a big Heroes for Hire fan and seeing them together on screen is giving me life. XD)
