Showrunner Cheo Hodari Coker saw Gang Starr not only because of the gangster attitude, but above all because of the intellectual approach as suitable for the series and the opportunity to have hip-hop actively tell this series. The episodes of the second season were named after titles by the US hip-hop duo Pete Rock & CL Smooth .

| In order not to attract attention with his superhuman strength and steely skin, Luke Cage in Harlem , New York is satisfied with two simple jobs, during the day as a cleaner in the hairdressing salon of Pop Hunter and in the evening as a dishwasher in the Club Harlem's Paradise . Its owner, Cornell "Cottonmouth" Stokes, sells weapons from Hammer Industries illegally to gangs in Harlem, which his cousin, City Councilor Mariah Dillard, approves but does not approve. One evening Luke, who is still having to deal with the death of his wife Reva around two years ago, has to help out as a bartender due to the absence of his colleague Dante and he meets Misty Knight, with whom he spends the following night. That same night, an arms deal arranged by Stokes with the gang of Domingo Colon is ambushed by a masked trio, who shoots everyone present and takes the money. When Dante, one of the three, panics and is left shot by his accomplice Shameek, he calls Stokes, lying dying, and betrays Shameek and the third robber, Chico, to him. Stokes is then visited by Shades, the right hand man of his supplier "Diamondback", who assures him that he will help in investigating the incident. Through his extensive contacts, Stokes finds Shameek in a strip club and has his henchmen bring him to the club, where Luke not only recognizes Shameek as a customer from the barber shop, but also Shades as a cellmate from his time in prison. After Shameek refuses to reveal where Chico is, Stokes beats him to death and has his body disposed of on the street. While Knight, who did not tell Luke that she was a police officer, is investigating the case with her partner Rafael Scarfe, Luke sees his landlords being attacked in their restaurant by a gang of African Americans who are demanding a donation from them to Mariah Dillard, and kills the attackers all together. | ||||||

| Since Chico worked for him as a hairdresser, Pop is visited by Stokes in his shop and asked about Chico, whose whereabouts Pop cannot tell him. Since the young Chico Pop is close to his heart, Luke looks for him and finds him by asking passers-by with his picture in his hiding place, where he tries to make it clear to him that he is better protected with Pop. Without Chico, Luke returns to Pop, who tells him about how he was once a criminal gang with Cottonmouth and Chico's father until he was the only one of the three to be caught and ended up in prison for ten years. Chico then sneaks into the shop through the back entrance, where Luke and Pop hide him from the police, who appear shortly afterwards in the form of Misty Knight and Rafael Scarfe. On behalf of Pop, Luke offers Stokes a deal for Chico at Harlem's Paradise to keep Chico alive, whereupon Stokes agrees to drop by Pop again for a conversation. After Stokes 'henchman Tone is contacted by the gangster Turk Barrett, who accidentally saw Chico in Pop's hairdressing salon, he goes to the shop with Shades - regardless of Stokes' command to only turn Chico off when this happens unobtrusively - and takes it with him without further ado two submachine guns under fire, killing Pop and Chico. Luke, who has stood protectively in front of a child, has to let Tone and Shades with Chico's money drawn from the arms deal and watch Pop succumb to his injuries while Chico is later transported away in the ambulance. In front of Stokes, Tone brags about his deed, but because of the uprising and death of his former friend Pop, Stokes is so angry that he throws Tone off the roof of his club, killing him. Luke finally observes how Mariah Dillard brings the money Chico received from Stokes to the " Crispus Attucks Complex", a memorial she built. | ||||||

| At the undertaker, Luke meets Stokes, who pays for Pop's funeral, but has to listen to Luke's allegation that he was responsible for his death. Together with Pop's friend and former accountant Bobby Fish, Luke decides to rebuild the devastated hair salon and plans to get the money from Stokes to do it. After Detectives Knight and Scarfe at the Chico hospital unsuccessfully ask for cooperation, Luke questions him alone and learns from him that the money Stokes made from arms sales is kept in hiding places all over the city and ends up in the heavily guarded Crispus Attucks Complex . With a plan to get Stokes to get all of his money to the complex, Luke raids several of his hiding spots and leaves the money to the police, which Stokes initially believes is an act of revenge by Domingo Colon. He then looks for him in his club and denies this, but with the demand that he return his money for the weapons that are in the police force, which Stokes does not want to comply with. As hoped, Luke sees the delivery of Stokes' remaining money in the complex and then storms it, clearing all the guards aside and then taking the money he needs to renovate the barber shop. On a phone call from Chico, Detective Scarfe meets with him, and after Chico reveals that Luke Cage has questioned him about Stokes, Scarfe strangles him with his tie. Scarfe then seeks up Stokes, angry about his missing money, who secretly pays him, and tells him that he killed Chico and that Luke Cage was behind the robberies. Since Scarfe also knows that Knight slept with Luke, he can use her cell phone GPS to find his place of residence. When Luke finally brought some of the money to his landlady, Stokes fired a bazooka at the restaurant from a building opposite. | ||||||

| Buried under the rubble of the collapsed building, the unconscious Luke remembers his time as a prisoner on the Seagate prison island in Georgia : At that time, under his real name "Carl Lucas", as a former police officer, he initially had difficulty getting used to his new surroundings . This is made more difficult by the ruthless prison guard Rackham, who lets two inmates, Shades and Comanche, attack Carl to put him to the test. After Carl can fight off the two attackers, Rackham offers him better terms if he fights for him, which Carl refuses. Carl regularly attends the sessions of the psychologist Reva Connors, who realizes in a personal conversation with him that he was wrongly convicted. In order to persuade Carl to participate in the illegal wrestling matches in the prison underground, Rackham has an inmate friend of Carl beat down until he agrees. After a short time, Carl becomes the strongest fighter in the ring, but his psyche also suffers from it. When asked by Reva, he informs her about the wrestling matches and decides to end them. When Rackham finds out, he sends Shades and Comanche again, who this time seriously injure Carl with striking weapons. In the infirmary, the doctor predicts an imminent death due to internal bleeding and, at Reva's urging, subjects him to a healing experiment. Rackham notices this and sabotages the facility, whereupon it explodes and brings Carl not only cured, but also with impenetrable skin and increased muscle strength. With the help of this he escapes from Seagate and looks for Reva, who has also left the island in the meantime. The two become a couple and Carl adopts the name "Luke Cage". In the present, Luke wakes up again and uses his strength to free himself and his landlady from the rubble before he reveals his name to the onrushing media reporters. | ||||||

| To get his money back and discredit Luke, Stokes sends his thugs out on the streets, steals people and cites Luke Cage as the reason. After helping to clean up the ruins of the collapsed building, Luke, whose deed in the Crispus Attucks Complex is now known, is besieged by passers-by, all of whom were victims of Stokes' attacks and ask him for help. Luke also grants this to the humans, but is ultimately confronted by Knight and Scarfe, who accuse him of constantly being involved in criminal scenes. Stokes is starting to get money back, but Shades advises him to sell his club instead, believing the current method of making money to be inefficient and amateurish. Stokes refuses and is thereupon visited by Luke, who under fire from a henchman demonstrates his resilience to projectiles and announces that he will put an end to Stokes' actions. Shades recognizes Luke as Carl Lucas from Seagate and then shows Stokes a video of special Hammer Industries ammunition, called "Judas ball", which causes massive damage through Kevlar vests . Since Diamondback has access to this ammunition, Shades offers Stokes to use it to kill Luke, but Stokes decides to buy the ammunition himself. He hopes the money will come from the sale of the weapons intended for Domingo Colon, which Scarfe is now supposed to get from the police station. As Knight learns from her colleagues, Scarfe is suspected of corruption, to which she reacts with skepticism. This is followed by Pop's funeral service, which is attended by a large number of people in Harlem due to its popularity. So did Stokes, who described Pop's positive influence on Harlem in an address. Luke also gives a speech in which he says that Pop has always encouraged him to help people and fight back against tyrants, for which he received a lot of applause. | ||||||

| Scarfe meets with Stokes to hand him over the weapons from the evidence room, but asks for $ 100,000. With the claim that nobody is afraid of him anymore, Scarfe provokes Stokes in such a way that the latter attacks him, grabs his weapon and shoots him. In a café, Luke meets former nurse Claire Temple, who once treated him in Hell's Kitchen after being shot in the head by a shotgun. Claire accompanies Luke to the hair salon, where the seriously wounded Scarfe is hiding, who is being treated by Claire. The police find Scarfes vehicle and Knight and her corrupt colleague Perez are set to track down Scarfe, whereupon they observe his apartment. Out of necessity, Scarfe, who does not want to be hospitalized, reveals to Luke his collaboration with Stokes and the murder of Chico. He also informs Luke that there are notes in his apartment about a fake homicide investigation that could lead to Stokes in jail. Luke manages to sneak inconspicuously into Scarfe's apartment, get the records and flee through the window without Knight and Perez getting to him. Luke wants to deliver Scarfe to the police station, for which they get a van from Claire's mother, the café owner. Knight and Perez receive information about the van from witnesses, which Perez passes on to Stokes, who puts a bounty on the van. After the three are followed by a vehicle, Luke confronts its armed occupants and turns them off. The shooting is reported to Knight and Perez, but when he tries to prevent them from going, Knight exposes him and arrests him. Luke finally saves Claire and Scarfe from a car that comes racing towards them by getting in the way before Knight appears and has to watch Scarfe die. Based on his information, Stokes is then arrested. | ||||||

| Since Scarfe cannot testify against Stokes, his records are insufficient for a charge, so Stokes is released. Although the latter has enough money again through the sale of his weapons to Domingo, Diamondback refuses him the Judas ball because, according to Shades, Stokes is currently attracting too much attention. With a phone call, Stokes makes an appointment with Luke at his club and gives him to understand that he will make his prison history known if he continues to fight him. Mariah Dillard, meanwhile, has to worry about her image as a city councilor, not only because of the arrest of her cousin, but also because of a television interview in which the police discovered the money in the Crispus Attucks Complex. Dillard is then visited by Shades, who calls on her to act more mercilessly, like "Mama Mabel", the dreaded founder of the Stokes' criminal family business, earlier. Luke wants to get out of Harlem, but Claire stops him and convinces him that his background wouldn't bother people. Encouraged by this, he visits Domingo in his boxing club, kills his men and takes his weapons. Dillard is eventually forced out of office by her party and blames Stokes for it. He replies that Mama Mabel always kept her away from crime while he was forced to, even though he would have preferred a career as a musician. Stokes' allegation to Dillard that she encouraged the sexual harassment of her uncle with her own demeanor, puts her in such a rage that she pushes Stokes down the gallery through a glass window and then kills him with a microphone stand. Shades sees this and approves of Dillard's determination. After Luke hands over Domingo's weapons to Knight, Diamondback shoots him in the stomach with a Judas bullet while walking with Claire and collapses. | ||||||

| An ambulance friend of mine drives Claire and the injured Luke away, but Diamondback chases the ambulance and kills it with his guns. When he hears the approaching police, however, he disappears while Claire takes Luke to a nearby clinic. At Harlem's Paradise, Shades and Dillard make arrangements to pin the murder of Stokes Luke, for which they bring in the waitress Candace, who, when questioned, tells Knight that she saw Luke do the crime. Knight doubts this and accuses Dillard of manipulating Candace, which she rejects. During an ultrasound scan of Luke's wound, Claire discovers that the projectile not only penetrated Luke's steel skin, but also exploded afterwards, so that she could not remove the fragments that had formed. Through a phone call from Knight, Luke and Claire learn that Stokes was murdered and that Luke is the prime suspect. A colleague from Knight locates Luke's cell phone, whereupon Knight visits the two in the clinic to arrest Luke. At that moment they are attacked by Diamondback, who grinds Knight and threatens to shoot them. Luke recognizes Diamondback as his former companion Willis Stryker, for whom he ended up in jail. Stryker beats Knight Ko and gains entry to an empty opera house, where he wants revenge on Luke for letting him "rot". Claire is then interrogated at the Knight Police Department and assures her that Luke has been by her side the entire time and that she cannot be Stokes' killer. After Claire refuses to give Knight personal information about Luke for this reason, she becomes violent and has to be reined in by her manager. The fight between Luke and Stryker eventually shifts to the street, where Stryker shoots Luke with another Judas ball and Luke falls unconscious into the back of a garbage truck. | ||||||

| At Harlem's Paradise, Diamondback laments the loss of his best salesman, Stokes, to Shades and sends his remaining henchman to search for Luke. In the meantime, he has got out of the garbage truck and is now being stopped by two patrol officers who want to arrest him. Luke struggles and throws one of the two on the windshield of the police car, which is recorded by its dashcam . Then Luke drags himself to Claire in the café, who is checking a data carrier that Luke had given her for safekeeping. Originally from Reva, it contains information about Seagate, including the leader of the experiment, Dr. Noah Burstein, whom Claire wants to visit in view of Luke's deteriorating health. After her attack on Claire, Knight is questioned by a police psychologist, but initially feels uncomfortable revealing confidential information. Only after some time does she admit that she wanted to make up for the loss of control that she had felt immediately before (through Diamondback's threat) during interrogation with Claire. Her inspector then gives her permission to track down Luke. Inspired by Shades, Dillard has Domingo arrange a meeting with Stokes' former business associate, at which Diamondback unexpectedly turns up. When the latter kills four gang leaders, Dillard is not intimidated and suggests killing Luke with a Judas ball in order to meet a demand in the legal area, such as B. the police to create. At Dr. When Burstein arrives in Georgia, he is surprised by Carl Lucas' survival and uses the laboratory equipment he brought from Seagate to construct a boiling acid bath to soften Luke's skin and thus allow the splinters to be removed. Luke endures the bath in extreme pain, but after the first attempt fails, he suffers cardiac arrest the second. | ||||||

| By throwing an electric generator into the pool, simulating defibrillation , Claire succeeds in resuscitating Luke and using a saline solution and elevated temperature to soften Luke's skin so that she can remove the splinters. Diamondback implements Dillard's proposal for the mass production of Judas weapons and uses a glove made of the same material to kill a police officer disguised as Luke Cage. This murder causes a lot of anger among Harlem's police officers, who use a lot of harshness in the search for Luke. Meanwhile, he takes the opportunity to talk to Dr. Burstein sees decrypted video files on Reva's disk and realizes that Reva lied to him when she claimed she knew nothing about the prison fights and experiments. Burstein confirms to Luke that Reva's sessions were used to evaluate inmates according to their psychological suitability for the experiment, whereupon Luke destroys his barn. Through a surveillance camera, Knight identifies the cop killer as Willis Stryker, her attacker, and through research in old files finds out that he was once friends with Carl Lucas. Luke attends church with Claire in his hometown of Savannah , where his father was a pastor. In doing so, he remembers his father having an affair with Stryker's mother, and concludes that Stryker's statement that they were brothers was true. The two return to Harlem and attend a Dillard event at Harlem's Paradise, where Dillard gives a speech calling for police officers to be heavily armed in order to contain the danger posed by people with special powers like Luke Cage. Luke sees Knight, who is about to arrest Diamondback on the dais, and comes to her aid when he shoots at her. Panic ensues, in the course of which Luke has to shield the injured Knight from being shot at by Diamondback's guards and takes her to shelter behind the bar. | ||||||

| Luke carries the wounded Knight into the kitchen and takes her to the basement through a hidden hatch in the floor. Shades joins Diamondback and warns him of the approaching police, but Diamondback decides to take the remaining guests, including Claire and Councilor Damon Boone, hostage. He lets the latter call the police and forces him to name Luke Cage as a hostage taker. Claire is able to persuade the guards to let them treat the injured Candace, and learns from her that the lounge is right next to the secret cellar. Under the pretext of getting medicine, Claire goes there, knocks out her guard and draws Luke's attention on the opposite side of the wall. This breaks through the wall so that Claire can get to him and take care of Knight, who threatens to bleed to death from her gunshot wound. In the club's office, Diamondback Boone explains his hatred of Carl with his father's discrimination, which culminated in the fact that he was held responsible for a car theft carried out with Carl and was the only one of the two to end up in juvenile prison. Shortly afterwards, he was transferred to a regular prison for a murder, while his mother, left alone by his father, died of cancer. Diamondback lets Luke overhear over the public address system and announces that he will kill hostages if he does not turn himself in. He then beats Boone to death with his Judas glove and has Shades bring the body to the exit. Shades then discovers the secret access to the basement in the kitchen and meets Knight and Claire, who overpower him and handcuff him. Meanwhile, Luke frees the hostages and has to catch Candace when Diamondback pushes them from the gallery in order to escape undisturbed. A special police unit equipped with Judas ammunition at the behest of the mayor of Dillard finally storms the club and arrests Luke (and Shades). | ||||||

| Luke is evacuated by the police, but manages to break free and flees. At the police station, Knight explains to her inspector that Luke saved her and that he was framed for the murders and hostage-taking. Despite his best efforts to remain undetected, Luke prevents a robbery on a music store where rapper Method Man is staying. Because of her guilty conscience, Candace makes an appointment with Knight and reveals to her that she watched Stokes' murder by Dillard and that she then gave her a lot of money for the false testimony against Luke. Thanks to a radio show in which Method Man tells of Luke's heroic deed, Luke receives a lot of support, especially from the Afro-American population, many of whom wear a perforated hoodie like Luke as a sign of solidarity. Diamondback pays Shades' bail so that he can be released, but sends three of his henchmen to kill him. However, Shades fights back and kills all three. After Diamondback hired Turk Barrett as a middleman for the buyers of his weapons, Luke visits the latter and learns from him where Diamondback's warehouse is. There Diamondback is confronted by Domingo, who tries to shut him down with his gang and starts a shootout. In their mutual resentment against Diamondback, Shades and Dillard team up and decide to team up with Luke. In the meantime, he arrives at the warehouse and finds several corpses as well as the seriously injured Domingo, who warns him shortly before his death about Diamondback's new weapon that he has used against them. Luke returns to the hair salon, where Dillard and Shades visit him and, in exchange for working together, offer him a file that proves he was wrongly convicted at the time. After Knight surprisingly appears to arrest Dillard, Diamondback shows up in a bulletproof suit and attacks Cage. | ||||||

| With his armor developed by Hammer Industries, Diamondback is equal to Luke and the two fight a long duel that shifts from the barber shop to the street. There a pack of onlookers forms, cheering on Luke, who, however, has to take a few blows from Diamondback with his reinforced gloves. By taking advantage of the exhaustion that arises, Luke Diamondback can ultimately knock out and seriously injure him. After Diamondback is taken into custody, Dillard and Luke are taken away because of his still valid arrest warrant. When questioned by Knight at the police station, Luke explains his point of view and justifies his acts of vigilante justice with the insufficient work of the police. In Dillard's interrogation, she pretends that Diamondback killed Stokes and forced her to name Luke Cage as the perpetrator. Knight counters this statement with clues that speak for her as the perpetrator, such as the recorded confession by Candace or the head injuries by Stokes, which match the violence with a microphone stand. In the middle of the interrogation, Knight is informed by a colleague that Candace was shot, and it turns out that Shades Knights picked up a lost cell phone at the hair salon and used it to lure Candace to him. Due to their death, the records are no longer useful as evidence and Dillard is dismissed, whereby she gives Luke clueless about the file she promised. When federal agents appear to transfer Luke to Georgia after his identification as Carl Lucas, Luke lets himself be arrested without resistance and says goodbye to Claire with a kiss. While Bobby Fish finds Shades and Dillard's files with the evidence of Luke's innocence in the once again destroyed hairdressing salon, Dillard continues to run Harlem's Paradise with Shades at her side; it also shows that Dr. Burstein is treated. | ||||||
