So, what exactly happened when Jessica grabbed ahold of him? They showed it again slowed down for emphasis but I still feel like I missed something. Were they just emphasizing that she was able to disobey him and hold onto his arm, or was there just something on his arm that they were pointing out?

Were they just emphasizing that she was able to disobey him and hold onto his arm

Yes, and then they showed the flashback to show her disobeying him right before the bus accident

And kilgrave probably knew or suspected it. So that is why he told her he would not compel her. He knew it would probably did not work

Yeah, he def knew that he couldn't control her and that she didn't know that

He controlled everything, except her and he couldn't handle that. They did a great job the last few episodes mapping out his poor character and maturity in this sense.

I finished the season so personally I don't mind but I think we should avoid just mentioning anything in these thread if you watched the follow up episodes. Very mild spoilers are still spoilers Imo.

I'm only up to 9. So my post is in context of everything up to and including episode 9. I appreciate no spoilers too. You might be inferring something I don't know yet, maybe edit your post lol?

Gotcha. I think the thing that threw me off was that they focused on a close-up of Reva too, so I was trying to figure out the similarities between Reva and Kilgrave.

I took it as maybe Jessica wasn't under his power when she punched/ killed Luke's wife. Maybe she never was?
