Luke Cage Season 1: 13 Best Moments
11. Scarfe Is Dirty (Episode 3: Who's Gonna Take The Weight?)
One of the most shocking moments early on the season occurs when Chico goes to meet with Misty's detective partner Rafael Scarfe.
Chico tells Scarfe that he's going to come clean to the cops with everything he knows about Cottonmouth, at which point Scarfe strangles him to death with his tie, revealing himself to be under Cottonmouth's employ.
Though Scarfe had shown himself to be a rough-around-the-edges wise-cracker from the outset, this was still hugely surprising... even if he eventually gets his comeuppance when he crosses Cottonmouth, gets shot, and later succumbs to his wounds.
Above all else, killing someone with a tie is just straight-up impressive. That's some impressively tensile fabric right there.
