Line #21 Recap/EchoEpisode3Tuklo


1	Maya is forced to deal with Fisk's men after she is sold out.
2	----
3	!!Tropes
4	* ActionGirl: Tuklo manages to shoot most of the criminals who were threatening her tribe.
5	* TheAllegedCar:
6	** Chula's truck is revealed to have taken quite a beating after the train job in the previous episode, with the windshield being cracked and the front bumper hanging on by a thread.
7	** Chula gets a temporary vehicle that has a backfiring engine and can only move forward in short bursts.
8	* AmicableExes: Some brief SnarkToSnarkCombat aside, Chula and Skully get along well enough despite the tragedy that split them apart.
9	* BadassInDistress: Maya is held captive by Vickie and two accomplices. She manages to escape and turn the tables on her captives via a hidden blade in one of her boots and some quick thinking.
10	* BigDamnHeroes: After Tuklo is rejected for a place among the Lighthorsemen, she signals her defiance by braiding her hair and singlehandedly bailing her father and his squad out of an ambush, with just one repeater and some cast iron guts.
11	* BigNo: Bonnie lets one out when Zane is about to kill Henry.
12	* BraidsBeadsAndBuckskins: Tuklo's father actually tells her that "braids are for warriors" - the first thing she does before joining him on the field of battle is braid her hair.
13	* ChekhovsSkill: Henry discreetly uses sign language to warn Bonnie and to tell her to leave.
14	* ComicallyMissingThePoint: Vickie yells for Maya even though she can't hear.
15	* DeliberateValuesDissonance: Tuklo's father forbade her from engaging in combat at an early age because he believed that women should be "life-givers" rather than "life-takers" like men traditionally are. He soon changes his mind when she rescues him from the enemy.
16	* DiesWideOpen: After some BloodFromTheMouth, Vickie dies staring wide-eyed at the bound Henry and Bonnie.
17	* DirtyCoward: Vickie tries to turn and run from Zane and his underlings, who promptly help him "go out" by giving him a MultipleGunshotDeath.
18	* FatBastard: Brigitte, Vickie's plus-sized accomplice, certainly isn't a nice lady.
19	* {{Hypocrite}}: Maya complains about her grandmother refusing to reach out to her during the years she was away in New York, even though Maya herself never responded to Bonnie's ''many'' attempts to reach out and stay connected with her.
20	* ImprovisedWeapon: [[CombatPragmatist Maya]] weaponizes the skating rink's various games against her foes, from using a light rail shooter arcade machine's guns as makeshift whips to beaning them in the face with skeeballs.
21	* KarmaHoudini: Vickie's accomplice Grace [[ScrewThisImOuttaHere runs for the parking lot]] when she finds out Maya has escaped. Zane lets her go.
22	* KidnappedFromBehind: Maya and Bonnie are both kidnapped from behind by Vickie and his accomplices.
23	* LockingMacGyverInTheStoreCupboard: Literal example when Maya is locked by Zane's people in the workshop for the skating rink. And she somehow has enough time to put together a pretty complicated thing that's essentially a flywheel gun that shoots ball bearings. It even has a laser sight!
24	* LoudOfWar: Before confronting Zane and his men, Maya turns on the music in the skating rink at maximum volume, which for her makes no difference as she's deaf but hinders her opponents.
25	* OhCrap: Maya is understandably unnerved when confronted by a very-much alive Kingpin.
26	* PapaWolf: Kingpin calls off Zane and his thugs just as they were about to execute Maya.
27	* PetTheDog: Though Zane is a smug and ruthless enforcer of Fisk's who murders Vickie instead of paying him, he allows Grace to escape from the skating rink.
28	* RewardedAsATraitorDeserves: Vickie is killed by Zane instead of being paid for his information on and capture of Maya, just as Henry predicted.
29	* ScrewThisImOuttaHere: Grace manages to leave Vickie with Zane and his men, which allows her to avoid getting shot.
30	* ShoutOut: Maya leaving Vickie's henchwoman Brigitte out cold with a taunting message brings to mind John [=McClane=]'s "I have a machine gun" moment in the first ''Film/DieHard''. Eventually the episode mutates into a DieHardOnAnX, with "X" being a roller skating rink.
31	* VillainousRescue: Kingpin calls off Zane and his lackeys just when he’s about to kill Henry, then has them leave the group alone long enough for Kingpin to encounter Maya the next day.
32	* WhamShot: [[BigBad Kingpin]] himself appears at the episode's conclusion to personally confront Maya.
33	* WrestlerInAllOfUs: Maya suplexes one of Zane's mooks through the skating rink's pinball machine during the episode's climactic brawl.
