Daredevil: Semper Fidelis (2016)
Season 2, Episode 7
8/10
Two plots at once are one too much

Warning: Spoilers
The main problem I have with Matt's 'sidequests' in this and the previous episodes is that I don't get why he has to help Elektra. It doesn't look like she couldn't do it alone. So why does he help her? He knows the trial is the most important thing right now. Considering that the whole plot is based on the premise that Matt can't deal with those two things at once, this is a very loose ground.

The two plots feel kind of forced to me because of that. Why don't have Elektra go on those adventures alone and have Matt find out about them later? Same conflict, works better imo. And Matt could do his own thing as Daredevil at night to find out more about the case and not really be ready for the legal defense this way. That would be much smoother.

Besides this kind of big issue: Foggy and the trial have been amazing and are saving the episodes right now.
