How the hell did DD find Muse's lair? Did I miss something, or did he just Daredevil ex machina his way there?

The girl told him the location when she came to see him earlier in the episode.

Yeah, I caught that in the recap before the most recent episode. Derp. Those things are handy sometimes.

What do you think of the way they're introducing new characters only to kill them off within a couple episodes? The actor who played White Tiger is dead, so it wouldn't make sense to complain about that. Seems like they could have done more with Muse, though. Saved him for a future season, at least.

Muse being a throwaway nobody was a huge disappointment for me. Initially I was hoping it was the psychiatrist girlfriend but it was obvious pretty quickly that it was a dude. The White Tiger apparently died before filming wrapped so who knows if his show demise was planned but it wouldn’t surprise me if he was just a tool to add another teenage girl Avenger to the roster. Just found out that Kingpin’s lackey is Tony Sopranos son though.

Apparently in the comics, Hector's story follows this basic storyline and she takes up the White Tiger mantle later on down the line, so it's not out of the question. I know Marvel is trying to work on a Young Avengers path as well.

Honestly when Muse lifter her sleeve to give the injection, I saw all the bracelets and thought she was using his amulet, and only pretending that she was knocked out. Half expected her to jump up and start fighting. Get her ass kicked and DD saves her, but still fighting like Hit-Girl from Kick-Ass.

Yeah I knew she became White Tiger. I'm not sure if she's earmarked for future use but they're putting together quite the roster of the roster of teen/young women Young Avengers.

“Power Rangers” head writer Tony Oliver admits "it was such a mistake" to cast a Black actor to play the Black Ranger and an Asian actor to play the Yellow Ranger.

Oliver says “none of us [were] thinking stereotypes” when these casting decisions were originally made. The series kicked off in August 1993 with Walter Emanuel Jones as Zack Taylor (the first Black Ranger) and Thuy Trang as Trini Kwan (the first Yellow Ranger). It wasn’t until “my assistant pointed it out in a meeting one day” that Oliver realized these castings were upholding stereotypes. During the show's casting, Oliver said the Black ranger "seemed to have the swagger of the group" and the Yellow Ranger was "the peaceful one, who tends to be the conscience of the group." They were looking for actors who had these qualities.
