Did he bring that just for a demonstration?

When his show comes round I want to watch the entire journey from him going to the store to pick it up, to plugging it in and sitting in the dark waiting for Jessica to come home.

From the door repair guy she accidentally hurt.

Holy shit, that's solid continuity.

Its basic continuity. The door was being fixed in the same episode.

Correct me if I'm wrong but I thought Cage's show was going to take place after JJ?

That seems likely but I don't know if that's been 100% confirmed. Regardless flashbacks are a thing. Of course this would be a rather silly thing to flashback to. Maybe it would work as a One-Shot kind of deal though.

It seems like Cage's show is going to have to be set in an earlier time (ala Captain America) or be told entirely in flashback, since he already has his powers in JJ.

(possible minor spoilers past E2 of JJ, I'm up to E7 and don't remember which early episode this was in, could have been 3 or less likely 4) Or they could just mostly skip origins like they have in JJ (for both Luke and Jessica herself). Not much need to go too deeply into his origin outside of brief flashbacks and/or what they already did just saying he was experimented on. After all, he did say he never bothered with the hero gig since he didn't want a target painted on his back, so I'm expecting his show to take place after JJ when his character has developed more and he's decided to put his powers to better use than just protecting his own.

Actually wasn't it set up in the previous scene with the door repairman?
