--Ready to go from here--
 * "Fifteen years training an army." Not sure what that means. Is it to do with 9/11?

1st

 * Frank, Maria, Frank Jr., and Lisa Castle go to the Central Park carousel with family friend Billy Russo. Russo begins to joke with the children and tells the story of the outlaw "Billy the Kid", who he claims he was named after. Lisa notes that since he is an orphan, he cannot know who he was named after, and he laughs at his mistake. Maria happily reminds him that they are all his family now.In 3 AM and Two Dead Men, flashbacks are shown of Frank Castle spending time with his children some time before their deaths. As mentioned in Penny and Dime, his family were killed the day after he got back from a rotation, which is said in Home to have been Operation Cerberus in Kandahar. Therefore, these scenes cannot be between his return and their deaths, so must be before Castle left for Kandahar, which is dated to September 14, 2013 (see other references). There is a further scene in Memento Mori with the family spending time with Billy Russo at the Central Park carousel, which does not present clearly whether it is the day of the family's deaths or a previous time. However, Maria and Frank Jr.'s clothes are different in this scene than when they are shown on the day of their death in later flashbacks in Memento Mori, suggesting it is a different day and therefore before Kandahar. As well as this, Russo says in Virtue of the Vicious on December 12, 2016 that he has not seen Castle for a "couple years now". As he wants to cover up the fact that he has recently spoken with Castle, he is saying that the last time that he had seen Castle before the last month is in fact the last time he had seen him, therefore meaning that the last time Castle and Russo saw each other was late 2014, so the Memento Mori scene cannot be in 2015. Finally, in 3 AM, it is shown that Maria Castle woke Frank at 10:30 on the day of their deaths, and in Kinbaku it is said that the massacre was at midday, so there would not be the time for them to get ready, go to Central Park, have Russo join them for a chunk of time, then have Russo leave before midday. So, these three scenes all take place before the Kandahar deployment, which began on September 14, 2013 (see other references). However, both children look the same as they do in April 2015 (due to the scenes being filmed at the same time), so it can be assumed that they took place in the weeks preceding the Kandahar placement, to get them as close as possible to 2015. Castle has a buzz cut in the 3 AM and Two Dead Men scenes but longer hair in the Memento Mori scene. The military buzz cut is likely shortly after or shortly before a deployment, and since, as explained, the scenes should be as late as possible (Summer 2013) and not as far back as 2012 (when Castle got back from his last deployment), the Memento Mori scene should therefore be placed preceding the other two, before Castle shaved his head ahead of his deployment. It can finally be reasoned that the 3 AM and Memento Mori scenes take place around the weekend before September 14, 2013, September 7-8, 2013, and the Memento Mori scene approximated as the weekend before, around September 1, 2013.

14th
--Ready to go up to here--
 * Frank Castle and Billy Russo begin a 15-month deployment in Kandahar, Afghanistan, assigned to a squad known as Operation Cerberus. Unbeknown to Castle, it is a corrupt assassination program funded by illegal heroin operations, and Russo himself, Castle's best friend, is helping the men leading it in secret.In Kandahar, it is shown that on Frank Castle's birthday, November 15th (see 1976 references), there are "29 days" supposed to be remaining of their deployment. Therefore, they are due to finish on December 14th. In Home, when Madani questions Castle about Kandahar, she asks, "You served many years as a Marine Force Recon?" He replies, "I did." She asks, "But that isn't where you served your last mission?", and Castle affirms, "No. I was part of a covert CIA operation. It was called Cerberus." Therefore, Kandahar was Castle's final deployment. However, in Kinbaku, Ellison's statements firmly place the Massacre at Central Park on April 4, 2015 (see 2015 references), and in Penny and Dime, Castle explains that this was the day after he got back from his final deployment. It must therefore be assumed that after Castle attacked William Rawlins on November 16th, similarly to how Russo "requested a transfer back to Force", Castle either requested to move or was forced to for his damaging attack on a superior officer, and had to serve an extra few months before finishing on April 3, 2015. This therefore makes the November that the Kandahar events take place November 2014. In Crosshairs, Frank Castle says "we did 15-month rotations in Afghanistan". Since they were due to finish on December 14, 2014, it can therefore be assumed that the deployment began around September 14, 2013. This also aligns with the fact that Castle says on November 15, 2014, "We have been doing it for a year," as it would have been 14 months. Finally, the assassination of Ahmad Zubair takes place somewhere between the September 14, 2013 start of the operation and the November 15, 2014 abrupt ending, so it can be approximated as roughly halfway between, around the night of April 15-16, 2014.
 * William Rawlins, anonymously going by "Agent Orange", and Ray Schoonover brief the Cerberus Squad on the need to obey them unequivocally in the following year, and Castle and Russo are appointed team leaders.
 * Castle and Russo spend leisure time together and meet a soldier called Gunner Henderson. They talk about the briefing, and Russo points out that Agent Orange did not even give them a name, but when Castle suggests this is suspicious, Russo says that it is not their place to question their leaders.

 * Jessica Jones wakes up at her desk the next morning with Malcolm in her kitchen, who gives her a package from Cheng Consulting. Jones answers a knock at the door, only to find Whizzer, who is spouting more tales about people trying to kill him, and she shuts the door on his face. Jones examines the message from Cheng, which contains all info on him, and reads, "I am an open book." They also find that a potential client has hired Cheng instead enraging Jones.
 * Coulson soon encounters Ivanov, who proceeds to tell him the story of his unit from 2003, and how they were executed for not being able to retrieve the 0-8-4. However, Coulson dismisses Ivanov's speech as irrelevant,since he only cares about finding Mace and May. He then lets Johnson fight Ivanov while he leaves to continue searching.

 * Though Ivanov is a tough opponent, Johnson is able to overpower him with her Inhuman powers, and buries him under a pile of rubble.
 * Meanwhile, Fitz and Simmons learn that Aida is present at the base. Simmons decides to find her with Agent Davis while Fitz remains in the communication room.

Real World

 * While their communications are briefly cut, Simmons figures out that Aida fled with the submarine. The S.H.I.E.L.D. agents finally regather and Coulson orders them to return to the Playground, despite not rescuing Melinda May.
 * Back at base, Simmons struggles to understand the timetable of the mission, feeling that something does not seem right. While sharing these feelings with Fitz, she receives an alert from a Life-Model Decoy detector in the base which indicates that four agents have apparently been replaced by androids while battling the Watchdogs in Russia. Simmons is led to believe that this is Coulson, Mace, Johnson, and Mackenzie.
 * Meanwhile, Aida retrieves Ivanov, who is barely alive following his fight with Quake.
 * Coulson's LMD reactivates May's LMD.
 * Aida proceeds with her plan to have someone protecting the Framework while she tries to make herself human. She cuts Ivanov into pieces, promising the preservation of his mind.
 * Meanwhile at the Playground, Jemma Simmons and "Leo Fitz" try to keep calm after finding out about four LMDs infiltrating the base. Simmons does not know that Johnson is not an LMD, but one of the four LMDs is actually Fitz.
 * Coulson's LMD approaches them and tells them that they need to bring all Inhumans to the base, saying that it is to protect them from the Watchdogs. In reality, he is planning to execute them at the request of the Superior and Aida. Mace's LMD comes along with Daisy Johnson, claiming he is healed and ready for the next mission.
 * Mack's LMD and Johnson contact Yo-Yo Rodriguez and order her to get ready for being collected.
 * Inside the director's office, the recently reactivated May LMD is shocked to find out that Coulson has also been replaced by an LMD copy.
 * Late into the night, Simmons and Fitz walk through the Playground, and a hidden LMD detector is triggered. The two realize that one of them must be an LMD, and Simmons forces Fitz to cut his wrist to prove he does not have a substructure. When blood begins to pour out, she panics as she realizes she has just got her boyfriend to slice an artery. She approaches him to help, only for Fitz to turn around and attack her, knocking her out and revealing himself to have been an LMD all along.
 * Meanwhile, Holden Radcliffe is brought back to the real world by Aida after spending 24 hours in the Framework, and he asks her why there were changes to the reality of the Framework while he was in there.
 * Aida reveals that the changes happened due to the recent uploading of the consciousnesses of Phil Coulson, Jeffrey Mace, Alphonso Mackenzie, and Leo Fitz, and thus the Framework being adapted to accommodate them. Radcliffe is concerned at Aida's actions, saying that she should never have changed the reality of the Framework with him being inside, because it could have caused him severe brain damage. He worries further when she reveals that the four LMDs she sent to infiltrate S.H.I.E.L.D. are ready to kill in order to complete their missions.
 * Siege of the Playground:
 * When Simmons wakes, Fitz's LMD discusses Fitz's desire to marry her and settle down. Simmons is pleased to hear this, but does not fall for the LMD's attempts to bring her over to his side. She manages to escape by destroying his neck and stabbing him several times to incapacitate him.
 * Daisy Johnson accidentally finds several copies of herself in the Containment Modules, to her horror. She realizes that the base has been already infiltrated by some LMDs, but she does not know which of her friends were replaced. Johnson dresses as one of the LMDs and hides herself among the fleet.
 * Alphonso Mackenzie's LMD enters the module with the intention to kill Johnson. He spots an LMD with her clothing imperfect, and believes it to be the real Johnson. As he moves to attack, however, the real Johnson assaults him from behind, defeating him and running away.
 * Simmons Reunites Quake.pngon and Simmons meet, and are terrified that the other is lying and is secretly an LMD. Johnson quakes her, proving that she is not one, as they cannot replicate Inhuman powers, and simultaneously proving Simmons is also real as she feels the vibrations of her bones. The two embrace with huge relief, and decide to fight back against the LMDs and rescue their friends.
 * Aida shows Radcliffe the new body she is building for the Superior, and tells him how she is starting to know the feelings of human behavior, but cannot understand it with logic. She also explains that her two main orders are to protect the Framework, and to protect Radcliffe's life, but that that creates a paradox in her programming. She sees them as a contradiction, because he might become a major threat to the Framework if one day he regrets its creation. Aida kills Radcliffe and submits him into the Framework where his consciousness will be preserved, even if his body has perished, to fix the paradox by keeping him safe in a place where he cannot threaten the Framework.
 * The base is locked down as Mace's LMD and Coulson's LMD make the agents believe that Johnson and Simmons are LMDs that are trying to destroy the Playground.

Real World

 * Simmons and Johnson use sleeping gas to knock out the human agents and prove that they are not the LMDs, but Mace, Mackenzie, and Coulson are. A battle ensues between Mace's LMD and Johnson, who manages to destroy him. Johnson is then attacked by Coulson and Mackenzie's LMDs. She uses her powers to attack them, shattering Mackenzie's LMD completely, and escaping from Coulson. Simmons reunites with her and convinces Agents Davis, Piper, Fisher, and Prince that she and Johnson are not LMDs. Together, they prepare to use the Zephyr One to escape the compound and rescue their friends.

As Simmons, Johnson, and the other agents start to escape from the base in Zephyr One, Coulson's LMD arrives at the exit in pursuit. May's LMD reveals that she let them go, and as he attempts to move past her, she ignites an explosion to destroy the LMDs and allow the agents to get away. The blast destroys the entire hangar of the Playground, but the Zephyr flies out safely.

She also reveals his real name: Vijay Nadeer. Nadeer starts to panic, and before he can reveal that Ward is the mole, Ward knocks him out.
 * Simmons enters a coffee shop, but on her way out she is stopped by two HYDRA agents due to her rough and questionable appearance. When they discover that she is a S.H.I.E.L.D. agent who died some time ago, they attempt to arrest her, but Simmons manages to defeat them and escape in their car.

=Luke Cage Season Two=

Why it can't be 2016

 * Ronda Rousey's December 2016 loss is mentioned.
 * In the August part of the season, Misty's "9 18" registration is shown. At most, it's a 2-year registration, which would mean it starts in September 2016, so it cannot be August 2016.
 * This Is Us is mentioned in the August part of the season. That show only premiered in September 2016, meaning it can't be August 2016.
 * Game of Thrones: Season 7 is referenced with "Bend the knee", and that wasn't until Summer 2017.
 * Foggy, Thembi, and Turk all appear, having appeared in Jessica Jones: Season 2. While Marvel do release their films out of chronological order, they never follow any characters out of order. When you see a character, it is always, for the character, after the last time we saw them. The only example I can think of where they didn't stick to this is Tony Stark's cameo in The Incredible Hulk, which is set after Iron Man 2, but that film came out literally 6 weeks after Iron Man, so I'm pretty sure they hadn't yet decided exactly how Iron Man 2 was going to work in relation to the cameo. They had to go on to make a whole one-shot just to explain how it slotted in. I thought this rule might break with Ant-Man and/or Wasp and/or Captain Marvel in Infinity War, but no - apart from Hawkeye, the only missing heroes from that film turned out to be the ones with films yet to come out that are set before Infinity War. So, because there's characters that carry over from Jessica Jones: Season 2, I just feel that automatically that means it has to be after Jessica Jones: Season 2. Sure, there's nothing to contradict it being before that season, but it would just be very strange and not conventional.
 * All evidence points to 2017-2018. There is no actual evidence placing it in 2016, so while it might feel like 2016, it would be ignoring all of the evidence.

Why it can't be 2018

 * It's just far too long since Season 1 and since The Defenders: Season 1. There's a feeling of it not being long since Luke Cage: Season 1 with Scarfe's cases only just being kicked and Mariah and Shades having not acted much since Season 1, and a few other things. Almost 3 years is very unlikely. As for The Defenders: Season 1, a bit over a year is already really pushing it, but is necessary - over 2 years is just impossible. Misty's still getting used to her arm being missing, Mariah's not seen Luke since he got out of prison, and all the discussion is as if it were pretty recent.
 * Shades' registration sticker is "1 18", meaning it cannot be later than January 2018.
 * The Jamaicans have a "2 18" registration sticker, meaning it cannot be later than February 2018.
 * Future Netflix seasons will have to be set after this, with this definitely being before Daredevil: Season 3 and Iron Fist: Season 2, and most likely before The Punisher: Season 2. If this is August-September 2018, that pushes those seasons very late, and they will almost certainly have evidence placing themselves earlier than that - especially with it meaning that Matt would have had to be at the convent for over 2 years.
 * Loeb's comment would suggest this is pre-Infinity War. While he only says "for the most part", because Luke Cage: Season 2 being August-September 2018 would put this and Daredevil: Season 3 and Iron Fist: Season 2 and probably The Punisher: Season 2 (all likely releasing before Avengers 4) after Infinity War in the timeline, I don't think that can count as "for the most part".

Evidence for 2016

 * Claire's still studying Misty's arm and Misty's not used to it, suggesting it's not long since Marvel's The Defenders: Season 1.
 * Not much has happened with Mariah and Shades since Season 1, suggesting it hasn't been too long.
 * Mariah speaks like she hasn't seen Luke since he got out of prison, suggesting it's not been long since Marvel's The Defenders: Season 1.
 * Misty is still trying to wrap her head around losing her arm, again suggesting not long since Marvel's The Defenders: Season 1.
 * Shades' car has a "1 18" registration. If this is a 1-year registration, this means it is between January 2017 and January 2018. It's possible that it's a 2-year registration, which would mean it is between January 2016 and January 2018.
 * Foggy says the Destiny's Child bar mitzvah was "a decade ago". It was May 2005, but since this is only 2016, 2017, or 2018, he must be rounding. Still, it would suggest more like 2016 or 2017 than 2018.
 * Jeph Loeb has said on 2 occasions that the seasons of TV released between Avengers: Infinity War and Avengers 4 are set before Avengers: Infinity War, and has explicitly said Luke Cage: Season 2 is set before Avengers: Infinity War. The latest Avengers: Infinity War can take place is June 2018, meaning this season is not 2018, as it would be a few months after Avengers: Infinity War.

Evidence That Doesn't Contradict 2016 but Doesn't Support It That Much
Luke thinks Sugar might have had a prison stint since he last saw him. While it turns out he hasn't, the fact that Luke thinks he could have suggests it's been some time since Season 1.

Evidence Against 2016
Misty's car has a "9 18" sticker. If it's a 1-year sticker, that would make it between September 2017 and September 2018. It could be a 2-year sticker, which would make it between September 2016 and September 2018. Luke Cage: Season 2 seems to take place after Cloak & Dagger: Season 1 (O'Reilly is in New Orleans and she only went to New Orleans just before Cloak & Dagger: Season 1, according to Emma Lahana), but not too long after because of what's going on with O'Reilly. Cloak & Dagger: Season 1 places itself in February-March 2017, so August-September 2017 would be the best August-September.
 * SC6 is on that night, and the show started on February 6, 2017. It also ended February 2, 2018, although that was likely something that couldn't have been predicted during filming, so it's not necessarily the intention that this evidence would place it before February 2, 2018. Still, ideally, it would fall between those dates, and it should be after February 6, 2017.
 * "Alternative facts" are referenced, which became a thing on January 22, 2017, placing this after then.
 * Bad and Boujee is referenced, and it was released October 28, 2016, suggesting we're after that.
 * Amanda Nunes vs. Ronda Rousey has happened, making this later than December 31, 2016.
 * Luke has The Force by Don Winslow, which was only released on June 20, 2017. This would suggest it is after that date.
 * "Next Statement Sept 1, 2018". Statements are usually monthly, suggesting it is currently August 2018.
 * This Is Us is already well-known. It started on September 20, 2016, suggesting this scene is after September 20, 2016, and they act like it has a reputation already so realistically it should be at least October 2016.
 * The Yankees are playing a doubleheader 5 days before the West Indian Parade. The only year this happened was 2017, with August 30th.
 * Shades has a "6 20" sticker. It looks different to normal registrations but assuming it is, that would suggest we're between June 2018 and June 2020.
 * The "bend the knee" phrase from Game of Thrones is used. First mentioned in Season 7, Episode 3 on July 30, 2017.
 * "11 18" registration. This would mean that it is between November 2017 and November 2018 if it is a 1-year sticker, if not after November 2016 if it is a 2-year sticker.
 * "3 19" registration. Would mean between March 2018 and March 2019 if 1-year sticker, if not, March 2017 and March 2019 if 2-year sticker.
 * D.W. says, "Personally I haven't felt this weird since November 9th." This implies that November 9, 2016 (the day Trump was announced as the new president-elect) was the last November 9th, making this September 2017. If not, it could be September 2018, but cannot be 2016.
 * Marvel almost never backtrack on any characters' timelines, despite the films jumping around in the timeline. The fact that Thembi, Foggy, and Turk are present, who were all in Jessica Jones: Season 2, should mean that it is set after Jessica Jones: Season 2 in April-June 2017.

Evidence for 2017
SC6 is on that night, and the show started on February 6, 2017. It also ended February 2, 2018, although that was likely something that couldn't have been predicted during filming, so it's not necessarily the intention that this evidence would place it before February 2, 2018. Still, ideally, it would fall between those dates, and it should be after February 6, 2017.
 * Luke thinks Sugar might have had a prison stint since he last saw him. While it turns out he hasn't, the fact that Luke thinks he could have suggests it's been some time since Season 1.
 * "Alternative facts" are referenced, which became a thing on January 22, 2017, placing this after then.
 * Bad and Boujee is referenced, and it was released October 28, 2016, suggesting we're after that.
 * Amanda Nunes vs. Ronda Rousey has happened, making this later than December 31, 2016.
 * Misty's car has a "9 18" sticker. If it's a 1-year sticker, that would make it between September 2017 and September 2018. It could be a 2-year sticker, which would make it between September 2016 and September 2018.
 * Shades' car has a "1 18" registration. If this is a 1-year registration, this means it is between January 2017 and January 2018. It's possible that it's a 2-year registration, which would mean it is between January 2016 and January 2018.
 * Luke has The Force by Don Winslow, which was only released on June 20, 2017. This would suggest it is after that date.
 * Foggy says the Destiny's Child bar mitzvah was "a decade ago". It was May 2005, but since this is only 2016, 2017, or 2018, he must be rounding. Still, it would suggest more like 2016 or 2017 than 2018.
 * This Is Us is already well-known. It started on September 20, 2016, suggesting this scene is after September 20, 2016, and they act like it has a reputation already so realistically it should be at least October 2016.
 * The Yankees are playing a doubleheader 5 days before the West Indian Parade. The only year this happened was 2017, with August 30th.
 * The "bend the knee" phrase from Game of Thrones is used. First mentioned in Season 7, Episode 3 on July 30, 2017.
 * "11 18" registration. This would mean that it is between November 2017 and November 2018 if it is a 1-year sticker, if not after November 2016 if it is a 2-year sticker.

 * Jeph Loeb has said on 2 occasions that the seasons of TV released between Avengers: Infinity War and Avengers 4 are set before Avengers: Infinity War, and has explicitly said Luke Cage: Season 2 is set before Avengers: Infinity War. The latest Avengers: Infinity War can take place is June 2018, meaning this season is not 2018, as it would be a few months after Avengers: Infinity War.
 * Luke Cage: Season 2 seems to take place after Cloak & Dagger: Season 1 (O'Reilly is in New Orleans and she only went to New Orleans just before Cloak & Dagger: Season 1, according to Emma Lahana), but not too long after because of what's going on with O'Reilly. Cloak & Dagger: Season 1 places itself in February-March 2017, so August-September 2017 would be the best August-September.

Evidence That Doesn't Contradict 2016 but Doesn't Support It That Much

 * Claire's still studying Misty's arm and Misty's not used to it, suggesting it's not long since Marvel's The Defenders: Season 1.
 * Not much has happened with Mariah and Shades since Season 1, suggesting it hasn't been too long.
 * Mariah speaks like she hasn't seen Luke since he got out of prison, suggesting it's not been long since Marvel's The Defenders: Season 1.
 * Misty is still trying to wrap her head around losing her arm, again suggesting not long since Marvel's The Defenders: Season 1.

Evidence Against 2017

 * "Next Statement Sept 1, 2018". Statements are usually monthly, suggesting it is currently August 2018.
 * Shades has a "6 20" sticker. It looks different to normal registrations but assuming it is, that would suggest we're between June 2018 and June 2020.

 * The Black Enterprise magazine has a "May/June 201?" date but it could be 6 or 8. If it's 2018, that would suggest it's now at least April 2018. Waiting for a HD screencap, at about (14:21 - 1:00) = 13:21 of about (56:10 - 1:00 - 2:10) = 53:00, so should look about 25.2% through the gallery when it comes out. [Needs to be revisited.]

James Lucas talks about Luke Cage. Footage is shown of Luke getting a smoothie and scaring thugs, Ridenhour pinning up a photo of Luke, and Luke taking a selfie with children. This isn't concurrent though, since either side of this scene is Luke in the AACA hoodie, and there is also Season 1 footage, so it works as just a montage. Misty is shown brushing her hair with one hand, which probably is present. Barack Obama exists in the MCU (has been revealed before). Born August 4, 1961.

Shades picks up Comanche as he is released from prison. - - - -MLC 2,1 e- - - -

Misty tells Luke she is done with getting involved in action. Misty's wearing the same top as earlier (basic clothing only), suggesting it's the same day. This would eliminate MLC 2,1 d and e - 50% eliminated. - - - -MLC 2,1 f- - - -

Luke is discussing the moment he asked the drug dealer "What's my name?" suggesting he and Claire are catching up, and it was the previous night.

Sugar calls Luke to let him know about a shipment Arturo Rey will be involved in. He then calls Rey to let him know that Luke has taken the bait.

It also ended February 2, 2018, although that was likely something that couldn't have been predicted during filming, so it's not necessarily the intention that this evidence would place it before February 2, 2018.

At least next day. - - - -MLC 2,13 n- - - -

Luke walks along the streets. Tilda goes to Harlem's Paradise and plays a song on the keyboard as she comes to terms with her actions. Misty trains. Shades looks at a photo. Only hours after her discussion with her mother. THis eliminates MLC 2,13 n. Luke meets with Mariah to talk. Mariah suddenly splutters and falls, coughing up blood. She dies in his arms, telling him they're not done yet. Next day.

The New York Bulletin reports on Mariah's death on its front page, saying "The Witch Is Dead".

D.W. says it's weird with Mariah gone. Sheldon arrives and D.W. is upset at Luke for becoming what he classifies as a crime boss. He insists Pop's must be Switzerland and tells him he has to leave, but that he will pay the rent and keep it going. They talk about having "heard the news", very much suggesting this is not long after Mariah's death (it's at least a day). This would eliminate MLC 2,13 o, p, and q. MLC 2,13 o 75% further eliminated, MLC 2,13 p and q 75% eliminated.. D.W. says, "Personally I haven't felt this weird since November 9th." This implies that November 9, 2016 (the day Trump was announced as the new president-elect) was the last November 9th, making this September 2017.

Days Put Together [Episode 1 - Soul Brother #1] Day A1 Episode 1 beginning to minute 3ish.

Luke takes down people selling "Luke Cage" heroin. At least next day.

Day A2 Episode 1 minute 4ish to minute 10ish.

James Lucas talks about Luke Cage. Footage is shown of Luke getting a smoothie and scaring thugs, Ridenhour pinning up a photo of Luke, and Luke taking a selfie with children. This isn't concurrent though, since either side of this scene is Luke in the AACA hoodie, and there is also Season 1 footage, so it works as just a montage. Misty is shown brushing her hair with one hand, which probably is present. D.W. talks to Bobby. The press come in to try to see Luke, but they send the man away. Luke comes in from the back. Bobby and Luke talk about the rent problems. Day B1 (Seemingly same day. 25% eliminated.) Episode 1 minute 10ish to minute 12ish.

12:27 - Misty and Claire bounce a ball and discuss her arm. Claire's still studying Misty's arm and Misty's not used to it, suggesting it's not long since Marvel's The Defenders: Season 1. Day C1 (Seemingly same day. 62.5% eliminated.) Episode 1 minute 12ish.

Piranha meets with Mariah and Shades to discuss inside information he has about Atreus Plastics, and how an investment will make them money. Not much has happened with Mariah and Shades since Season 1, suggesting it hasn't been too long. The Black Enterprise magazine has a "May/June 201?" date but it could be 6 or 8. If it's 2018, that would suggest it's now at least April 2018. Waiting for a HD screencap, at about (14:21 - 1:00) = 13:21 of about (56:10 - 1:00 - 2:10) = 53:00, so should look about 25.2% through the gallery when it comes out.

Shades has Comanche beat up the waiter who mistook him for her nephew. Luke and Claire dance. Luke and Claire sleep together. Luke gets up in the night to go and help the streets. Luke comes across Sugar. He claims to be reformed after having a daughter and gives Luke information. Luke knows he's lying about something, so he scratches his car before he goes. Luke thinks Sugar might have had a prison stint since he last saw him. While it turns out he hasn't, the fact that Luke thinks he could have suggests it's been some time since Season 1. Luke sees his father, James, for the first time since he left prison. They are hostile with each other, and part ways. Day F1 (At least next day, seemingly next day. 0% eliminated.) Episode 1 minute 25ish to minute 28ish.

Together with Bobby, the three work out that Luke's El Tercero lead goes back to a man called Arturo Gomez III, now known as Arturo Rey III and running the company "Merlin". It's possible that the Merlin advert has an expiry date or some sort of date. Waiting for HD screencap, at about (29:40 - 1:00) = 28:40 of about (56:10 - 1:00 - 2:10) = 53:00, so should look about 54.1% through the gallery when it comes out. Day I1 (Seemingly same day. 0% eliminated.) Episode 1 minute 30ish to minute 41ish.

Joi performs at Harlem's Paradise. Mariah watches as Mark Higgins gets handsy with Stephanie. Stephanie has begun work at Harlem's Paradise, so this is at least the day after she was hired.

The buyers talk with Mariah. Cockroach says he wants to encourage "black black" over other black residents in Harlem, such as the Jamaicans. Luke arrives at the club. He knocks out Comanche and confronts Mariah. She points out that Claire is in the club, and he should be careful. He is surprised to see her there and worries for her, and chooses to leave. Mariah speaks like she hasn't seen Luke since he got out of prison, suggesting it's not been long since Marvel's The Defenders: Season 1. Joi performs her next song. Luke and Claire walk home and argue about her putting herself in danger for him. They make up and kiss. Day J1 (At least next day, seemingly next day. 0% eliminated.) Episode 1 minute 41ish to minute 42ish.

Sugar calls Luke to let him know about a shipment Arturo Rey will be involved in. He then calls Rey to let him know that Luke has taken the bait. The book Luke is reading is Charcoal Joe by Walter Mosley, which was released June 16, 2016, so we're after that. Day K1 (Seemingly same day. 75% eliminated.) Episode 1 minute 42ish to minute 43ish.

Luke arrives at the Merlin truck. Rey explodes it, but Luke walks out fine. Rey then shoots him with a Judas bullet, but it barely slows Luke down, to the surprise of both of them. Luke takes out Rey. D.W. reveals himself and tells Luke he's been filming it all. Luke films a video for any people threatening Harlem. Misty goes to Ridenhour to ask for her job back. Luke arrives in his burned hoodie with Rey over his shoulder. Ridenhour tells him he needs to stop getting involved, but Luke asks instead for the police to improve. Nigel returns home to find Bushmaster. Bushmaster is angry that Nigel is doing business with a Stokes and starts a fight, slicing open Nigel's head and taking all the gunfire from Nigel's men, with the bullets only lodging in his skin. He takes them all out. Luke goes to Mariah with the failed Judas bullet and drops it on her table. He tells her never to threaten Claire again, saying that he will kill her if she does, and he leaves. Day M2 Episode 2 beginning to minute 43ish. [Episode 2 - Straighten It Out]

Claire inspects Luke's skin, and comes to the conclusion that the second bath at Dr. Burstein's has made him even more indestructible. Luke arrives at the Harlem Jets training ground to test his physical abilities. Luke performs different sports and exercises and surpasses world records. SC6 is on that night, and the show started on February 6, 2017. It also ended February 2, 2018, although that was likely something that couldn't have been predicted during filming, so it's not necessarily the intention that this evidence would place it before February 2, 2018. Still, ideally, it would fall between those dates, and it should be after February 6, 2017. SC6 is on that night, making it a weekday. Luke takes selfies with kids. Claire smiles, but then becomes concerned. Claire tells Luke that she's worried there could be something worse than a Judas bullet. He insists he'll be fine. 09:25 - Mariah demands to know why the Judas didn't work. "Alternative facts" are referenced, which became a thing on January 22, 2017, placing this after then. Misty reunites with Nandi, but wants her old desk back. She reunites with Bailey as well. Misty is still trying to wrap her head around losing her arm, again suggesting not long since Marvel's The Defenders: Season 1. Bushmaster walks through town. He recently got the bullets out of his chest, but it's edited as if it were a bit earlier. He encounters some children playing like they are Luke Cage, and asks who he is. They show him the video and he tells them that Luke just better not test him. He goes to Gwen's restaurant. James enters Pop's and is still unpleasant with Luke. He leaves and Claire arrives. Luke explains about his father, and Claire thinks he should be more positive, wanting him to be happier about reconnecting with his father. Misty goes to Arturo Rey's interrogation but Nandi tells her to leave. Bailey convinces her to go for it. Misty goes in to interrogate Rey, but Donovan arrives and has him sprung. Ridenhour scolds her. Bailey's ID may have dates on it. Waiting for a HD screencap, at about (13:55 - 1:00) = 12:55 of about (55:01 - 1:00 - 2:10) = 51:51, so should look about 24.9% through the gallery when it comes out. [Needs to be revisited.] Misty calls Luke about Rey being sprung. He goes out "to fumigate". Claire, Bobby, and Luke are all in the same clothes as earlier, meaning this is the same day as when James entered the shop. This eliminates MLC 2,2 h. Luke hangs a man upside down for information. Luke goes to the gym and applies extra mass to a man's weights as well as bending the bar, to pressure him for information as well. He gives the name Drea Powell. Bushmaster talks to Anansi in Gwen's. He says he needs more nightshade. A football ("soccer") game is on in the background, but no idea who is playing. Mariah's lawyer tells her that to regain popularity, she should reconnect with her estranged daughter. Shades and Comanche go after Rey. Shades becomes angry at him and shoots him. Misty stands up in the precinct and tells everyone to stop picking on her about her arm. Rey's murder is reported in. Misty is in the same clothes as earlier, suggesting it's the same day as Rey being sprung. This would eliminate MLC 2,2 i and j. 75% eliminated. There might be some dates on the screens in the precinct. Waiting for a HD screencap, at about (25:06 - 1:00) = 24:06 of about (55:01 - 1:00 - 2:10) = 51:51, so should look about 46.5% through the gallery when it comes out. [Needs to be revisited.] Misty looks at the scene of Rey's murder. She talks to Luke outside and gets an address on Drea Powell. Mariah visits Tilda at Mother's Touch, but Tilda is hesitant to reconnect with her. Luke goes to the Powells' house and talks to the son, but Drea turns him away. An elderly neighbour calls him over to tell him Dontrell spends time at a dice game. Shades tells Mariah that he had to kill Arturo. He promises he'll sort the money for Piranha. Luke goes to Cockroach's warehouse/club. He confronts Cockroach, but Cockroach fires into his shoulder and blasts him out of the window. Bobby talks to Claire about his daughter. Luke calls Claire about his shoulder. Claire fixes Luke's shoulder. They begin to argue, with her saying he is blaming his father too much for the things that go wrong in his life. Bushmaster buys nightshade from Tilda. Day M3 Episode 2 minute 43ish to end. Episode 3 beginning to end. Episode 4 beginning to minute 9ish.

Gary Clark Jr. performs at Harlem's Paradise. Shades promises Mariah he'll make up the rest of the money. Nandi watches within the club. Misty looks at a photo Nandi took.

Claire helps deal with Dontrell and his family. Misty arrives on the scene and says that she just wants to smooth out the situation. Luke tells her he still has to deal with Nigel. Bushmaster wakes with two women in his bed. He talks to Sheldon, who tells him Arturo is dead. Tilda plays on Cornell's keyboard. She sits to eat with Mariah. Shades enters and pulls her aside Mariah and Shades. Luke looks at his charts, then lays down to rest. Misty talks to Cockroach in his hospital bed. He's rude to her again, winding her up, just as Nandi and Bailey enter. Nandi tells her to leave. Bobby finds Luke asleep. He talks about Claire, when Claire enters. She explains that she didn't call the police, but is worried that Luke is becoming too brutal. Ridenhour scolds Misty for letting Luke go. Luke visits Gwen's and asks the Jamaicans about Nigel, but they tell him to go away. Shades goes to visit Nigel but finds Bushmaster and Sheldon. They show him Nigel's severed head, but ask Shades to convince them to join the deal. Luke tails Mouse, following him as he heads back to Bushmaster. Mariah holds a fundraiser and Tilda comes. Misty trains with Colleen, who wants her to stop treating herself like a cripple. They leave to drink. Claire visits James and asks him for advice on how to help Luke, without revealing that she's talking about James' son, although he begins to suspect when she accidentally says "Luke". He tells her she needs to find her purpose if she wants to help her boyfriend find his. Mouse gets back to the warehouse and Luke follows, confronting the Yardies. One-by-one, they attack Luke and fail. Bushmaster watches on, learning his fighting style. At the fundraiser, Mariah gives a speech about her Family First initiative. Misty and Colleen are drinking together when they're approached by a man called Morty, trying to flirt. He becomes hostile when he realises Misty got his brother arrested. A fight breaks out and Misty learns to manage without her right arm. Bushmaster mixes more nightshade while he studies Luke's fighting style. Mariah meets with Mark Higgins and blackmails him with the footage of him with Stephanie/Billie. Tilda arrives, having not said bye after the Family First speech. She tells her mother that she'll give her one more chance. Luke gets home and he and Claire begin to argue. He insists that brutality is necessary, but Claire tells him he's changing because of his violence. He says that he will be feared anyway, buts he tells him to rise above racism. He wants to be able to use his anger to connect with violent people. She feels he's blaming others for his pain, and reveals that she went to see James. He loses control and punches the wall and Claire realises she needs space and time away. As Luke walks following the argument, he is suddenly attacked by Bushmaster. [Episode 4 - I Get Physical]

D.W. goes to Luke as Bushmaster attacks him. Luke loses to him, and D.W. films as Bushmaster announces himself for the citizens of Harlem. D.W. and other citizens help Luke up. Bobby helps Luke as he gets back to the barber shop. Nandi is messing around when Bailey finds the video of Luke. Misty is unimpressed with his excitement. Nandi's ID may have some sort of date. Waiting for a HD screencap, at about (06:44 - 1:00) = 05:44 of about (54:30 - 1:00 - 2:10) = 51:20, so should look about 11.2% through the gallery when it comes out. [Needs to be revisited.] The YouTube video doesn't seem to have a visible date, but will have to check to be sure. Waiting for a HD screencap, at about (06:53 - 1:00) = 05:53 of about (54:30 - 1:00 - 2:10) = 51:20, so should look about 11.5% through the gallery when it comes out. [Needs to be revisited.] Amanda Nunes vs. Ronda Rousey has happened, making this later than December 31, 2016. Day M4 Episode 4 minute 9ish to minute 46ish.

10:00 - Piranha visits Mariah to talk about their success with Mark Higgins. Comanche walks in and plays the video of Luke being taken down. Luke is also watching the ESPN video at the barber shop. First Take is on, meaning it is a weekday. Luke finds D.W. selling DVDs of his beatdown. He tells him he saw Claire leaving. Shades takes Mariah aside to talk, realising she recognised the Bushmaster name when he mentioned it. Luke goes to Claire's apartment after what D.W. said, only to find it is being sublet. Shades tells Comanche to guard Harlem's Paradise. Comanche taunts him about Mariah's control over him. Misty picks up Luke as he leaves Claire's apartment, wanting to go after Nigel. They arrive at the location given for the Yardies and Misty gears up. Misty's car has a "9 18" sticker. If it's a 1-year sticker, that would make it between September 2017 and September 2018. It could be a 2-year sticker, which would make it between September 2016 and September 2018. On entering the warehouse, Misty and Luke find herbs from "Mother's Touch" and then Nigel's headless body. They realise Misty has to report it in. 18:25 - Comanche tells Mariah he learned about stocks during his imprisonment, and that Piranha might be scamming her. They're both in the same clothes and this is while he's guarding Harlem's Paradise, so no gap. Misty and Luke talk to Tomas. He tells them about the Yardies and Nigel, and how the new group known as the Stylers are bigger. Misty heads to Jersey with Tomas to interrogate Shaw. Christone "Kingfish" Ingram soundchecks at Harlem's Paradise. Mariah looks at an old Bulletin clipping about Harlem's Paradise. Luke sits sadly on a train and someone takes a photo of him. Tilda checks the ingredients she sold to Bushmaster. Mariah and Luke are in the same clothes and Luke has still only just taken the picture of the Mother's Touch bag, there's no gap. An advert says "-SH. August 24th. Appearing only at Harlem's Paradise". It's unclear who the advert is promoting, it could be Christone "Kingfish" Ingram, especially considering the "-SH", but it could be someone else. However, this suggests it is coming up to August 24th or is August 24th. Possibly, it's just after August 24th and they haven't taken the advert down yet. Luke asks Tilda about whether she helped Bushmaster, but she pretends to not be sure. However, she asks him about the experiment that gave him his strength and then helps him with his concussion, giving him a herbal remedy. They're both still in the same clothes and he wouldn't have waited to follow up on the Mother's Touch lead, no gap. Misty questions Gideon Shaw. He tells her about the story Anansi told about the people at the top of the hill, and how John has come to end their time. Christone "Kingfish" Ingram performs at Harlem's Paradise. Mariah gets out some bushmaster rum, and Bushmaster arrives. He tells her Harlem is beginning to feel like home. He asks her how much she knows about the history of Harlem's Paradise, and she intentionally doesn't mention Quincy McIver, his grandfather. He calls her Mariah Stokes to aggravate her, and leaves. Shades asks Ray Ray to guard Harlem's Paradise, and he says Comanche left after his mother called. Follow-up on soundcheck, no gap. Bushmaster goes back to Gwen's and greets his friends and family, who are impressed with his takedown of Cage. Anansi is a little more reserved, but John tells him about how he has now seen his kingdom, and with Luke taken down, the guard dog is out of the way. Shades waits outside in a car, having followed Bushmaster back to the restaurant. Shades' car has a "1 18" registration. If this is a 1-year registration, this means it is between January 2017 and January 2018. It's possible that it's a 2-year registration, which would mean it is between January 2016 and January 2018. Comanche goes to see Ridenhour, who is the person he was really going to visit. Ridenhour has him as an insider at Harlem's Paradise. Comanche doesn't want to push for more information in fear that he'll give himself away. Day N1 (Seemingly same day. 75% eliminated.) Episode 4 minute 46ish to minute 47ish.

Misty finds a Rand Enterprises envelope on her desk. Opening it, she finds it's a note from Danny and Colleen along with a blueprint for a prosthetic arm they've made her. Possible dates on the files on the table. Waiting for a HD screencap, at about (46:13 - 1:00) = 45:13 of about (54:30 - 1:00 - 2:10) = 51:20, so should look about 88.1% through the gallery when it comes out.

Bobby tells Luke his daughter needs a liver transplant, and that he's a donor match and will fly out tomorrow. A man enters the shop and tells Luke he's being legally served. Day P1 (At least next day. 0% eliminated.) Episode 5 beginning to minute 6ish. [Episode 5 - All Souled Out]

Ben Donovan represents Cockroach while Foggy represents Luke. Cockroach accuses Luke of abusing him. Luke accidentally breaks the table. Foggy tells Luke the money that will be needed for Dontrell: $100,000. Luke has 72 hours to pay, which may be significant for the day-to-day breakdown. Day Q1 (Seemingly same day. 93.75% eliminated.) Episode 5 minute 6ish to end. Episode 6 beginning to minute 41ish.

Mariah has Tilda come to the clinic to ask her to be her medical director. Mariah has an event at the clinic "this evening", which may be significant. Atreus sold "just a few days ago". The merger was "tomorrow" when Mariah blackmailed Mark Higgins, and the scene where she and Piranha celebrate is definitely the next morning, so yes, the merger was that morning. This means it has been a few days since that scene. Misty tries her new arm at Rand Enterprises, lifting a mug. Foggy calls to tell Luke about the possibility of being paid to attend a party event, but he turns him down. Misty visits and they discuss the problem with Cockroach. Luke has The Force by Don Winslow, which was only released on June 20, 2017. This would suggest it is after that date. Luke has some other books, which deserve a placement on the timeline, and could, like The Force, be relevant to the placement. Waiting for a HD screencap, at about (10:19 - 1:00) = 9:19 of about (57:35 - 1:00 - 2:10) = 54:25, so should look about 17.1% through the gallery when it comes out. [Needs to be revisited.] Foggy says the Destiny's Child bar mitzvah was "a decade ago". It was May 2005, but since this is only 2016, 2017, or 2018, he must be rounding. Still, it would suggest more like 2016 or 2017 than 2018. Luke says they have a few weeks left on the lease. This could become relevant. Luke calls people about other options, but doesn't like them, and eventually calls Foggy back. Mariah readies for the clinic opening. Tilda says she's finding it hard to trust Mariah. Nandi and Bailey show up asking where Mark Higgins is. Jimmy Kimmel Live! is on that night, meaning it is a weekday. No one has seen Higgins in a few days. The earliest that he could have last been seen is when he approved the merger, the same morning that Mariah and Piranha then celebrated the merger going through. So it's at least a few days since that day, which matches what Mariah said about the merger going through "a few days ago". Comanche says they couldn't find Bushmaster. Shades asks where Ray Ray is, and they don't know. Mariah shows up, excited, but Shades is nervous. He suggests that he buys Harlem's Paradise from Mariah to solve their money problem, but she refuses. He expresses concern at Piranha getting drunk and potentially slipping up, but Mariah shows no worry. Immediately after last scene (same clothes, still getting ready, Nandi and Bailey "rolled up this morning"). Piranha's holding a party "tonight", which may become relevant. Mariah's phone could have a date. Waiting for a HD screencap, at about (19:58 - 1:00) = 18:58 of about (57:35 - 1:00 - 2:10) = 54:25, so should look about 34.9% through the gallery when it comes out.

He's rude to her and about Scarfe and the other police, driving her out of the room. 15:30 - Luke and Foggy arrive at Uptown Investments and is taken to Piranha's office. Piranha has a collection. Luke is given an outfit to wear for the party that night. 16:07 - Shades asks Comanche about Ray Ray, but there's still no word. Shades has to leave for Piranha's party. Comanche gets a text from Ridenhour asking to meet. Ridenhour asks to meet "tonight", which could become relevant. Misty looks through Cockroach's folder. Might be some dates in the folder. Waiting for a HD screencap, at about (28:31 - 1:00) = 27:31 of about (57:35 - 1:00 - 2:10) = 54:25, so should look about 50.6% through the gallery when it comes out. [Needs to be revisited.] Ridenhour talks to Misty about Scarfe's corruption. Luke puts on the hoodie for the party, calling it cosplay. Luke arrives at the party and Ghostface Killah is performing. Piranha greets him and takes him around. Someone asks Luke if he's tougher than Hulk. Misty visits Drea to talk about Dontrell. Piranha shows off to women about knowing Luke. Tilda tells Mariah that she cannot trust her, and that she knows she's lying. Mariah tells her about Higgins and about them selling guns, saying the only line they refuse to cross is selling drugs. Tilda leaves, not happy with her. Mariah says she was told about Mark Higgins (the first scene with Piranha) "a few weeks ago". The Black Enterprise magazine is shown again, with the May 2016 or 2018 date. Waiting for a HD screencap, at about (39:37 - 1:00) = 38:37 of about (57:35 - 1:00 - 2:10) = 54:25, so should look about 71.0% through the gallery when it comes out. [Needs to be revisited.] Luke is asked for a selfie. A man in the crowd looks over at him, then disappears, and Luke goes to find him. Misty finds a file she needs from her old desk (now Nandi's). She also comes across Scarfe's old bottle. Misty takes evidence, deciding to plant it on Cockroach. Comanche meets with Ridenhour, who tells him his time is running out. Ridenhour says he gave Comanche a week, and the clock is ticking. This would likely be referring to the time since he was released from prison, suggesting it was about 6 days ago. However, Mariah just referred to events after Comanche's release from prison as "a few weeks ago", so this is more likely since Comanche got to Harlem's Paradise, but it still suggests he was released from prison not much more than a week ago. Misty enters Cockroach's apartment to plant the evidence. Misty is shocked to find Cockroach's headless body. Mariah is opening her clinic. She opens the door and everyone is shocked when inside there are three severed heads - Mark Higgins, Cockroach, and Ray Ray. Luke sees Shades and they come face-to-face.

Sheldon calls and John has them roam the streets. Football/soccer game on, not sure who's playing. Sheldon stops Lonnie on the street, asking about Luke. Car might have a registration date. Waiting for a HD screencap, at about (7:40 - 1:00) = 6:40 of about (64:10 - 1:00 - 2:10) = 61:00, so should look about 10.9% through the gallery when it comes out. [Needs to be revisited.] Connie is putting bins out when she sees the commotion on the streets. Luke and Piranha go to an old cinema/theater owned by Uptown. Some Jamaicans drive past, looking in. Luke decides to splint Piranha's leg, but tells Piranha he will have to tell him everything about what's going on. Shades talks to Comanche and is surprised Comanche doesn't know what's happening. Comanche suggests cutting loose from Mariah. Shades decides to get weapons and go after Luke themselves. Mariah sits in interrogation. Ridenhour talks to Misty, asking how she found Cockroach's body and berating her for contaminating the crime scene. Misty gets angry but discovers her new arm is powerful. Still the same night, heads incident referred to as "tonight". Arturo and Nigel's murders are said to have been "last week". They have 48 hours to sort it or ICE will come in. Could become relevant.

D.W. calls, telling him he saw two people entering the barber shop from the back. Shades and Comanche sneak into Pop's Barber Shop and sit to wait. Misty meets with Gabe Krasner to eat, knowing he will give the good, tough advice she needs. Anansi berates John for his terrorist actions, calling it too far, and disrespectful. As they wait in the barber shop, Comanche brings up the relationship he and Shades had in prison. Shades passes it off as a product of their circumstances, but Comanche tells him that he feels like it was more. Comanche decides they are wasting their time and he leaves. Getting back to the Paradise, Mariah becomes angry, feeling that everyone has betrayed her. Alex joins her and she drinks and complains. Clearly a continuation of the same night, Mariah's reacting to the events and is in the same coat. Day Q2 Episode 6 minute 41ish to end. Episode 7 beginning to end.

Luke boards up a hole as the morning comes. Jamaicans outside wonder if Luke and Piranha could be inside. Piranha discusses his father, and how he left him, and then when he had come to him for help, he turned him away. Misty calls Luke from the precinct and he tells her about the Jamaicans' cars. Misty notices one and it drives away, but she clocks the plate. Schedules on the noticeboard could give evidence. Waiting for a HD screencap, at about (45:18 - 1:00) = 44:18 of about (64:10 - 1:00 - 2:10) = 61:00, so should look about 72.6% through the gallery when it comes out. [Needs to be revisited.] Luke comes back to find that Piranha has been taken again. He tracks down the Jamaicans and attacks them, taking Piranha back. Shades goes back to Mariah and they embrace. He tells her about Gwen's. She asks if anyone else knew about Tone, having noticed that Ridenhour had knowledge about it that he shouldn't. Misty confesses to wanting to plant evidence.

Statements are usually monthly, suggesting it is currently August 2018. Shades and Comanche talk about who the snitch might be, and Comanche suggests Ray Ray. Shades gets a text from Mariah about Piranha's death. This Is Us is already well-known. It started on September 20, 2016, suggesting this scene is after September 20, 2016, and they act like it has a reputation already so realistically it should be at least October 2016. Again Ridenhour asks to meet "tonight", which could become relevant. Bushmaster has a suit fitted. He talks to Anansi about his mother. Luke talks to James about his mother's death. Misty goes into a bar and sees a guy looking at her. Comanche goes to see Ridenhour, but Shades followed. Comanche then pretends to have been threatening Ridenhour and pulls a gun on him. He is forced to shoot Ridenhour. Realising Comanche is the snitch, Shades works out his alibi as he shoots his friend. The Empire State Building is green/white. Mariah is scared in her brownstone with Tilda. Bushmaster arrives and her bullet does nothing. He calls her a Stokes and advances. Misty kisses the man but gets a call about Ridenhour and has to leave in shock. Bushmaster has Mariah and Tilda tied to chairs and tells them how his family were disrespected.

Waiting for a HD screencap, at about (23:34 - 1:00) = 22:34 of about (55:13 - 1:00 - 2:10) = 52:03, so should look about 43.4% through the gallery when it comes out.

[Needs to be revisited.] As Mariah leaves the precinct, there is a shooting from the Jamaicans, but Luke protects her and Tilda. Misty continues to interrogate Shades on her own, and he tells her about his friendship with Darius. File shown could potentially have a date.

Luke warns his father that someone could come and attack him to get to Luke. Banners on the side of the church could have a date. Waiting for a HD screencap, at about (35:19 - 1:00) = 34:19 of about (55:13 - 1:00 - 2:10) = 52:03, so should look about 65.9% through the gallery when it comes out.

Mariah visits Tilda at her shop to talk about how much she was scared she would lose her. Anansi angrily leaves Bushmaster. Shades waits outside for him. Shades has a "6 20" sticker.

Misty gives the papers over for Mariah's deal. Priscilla and the police enter Harlem's Paradise with an arrest warrant for Bushmaster, only to find the Jamaicans are gone. The Jamaicans arrive at the Rand facility. "8 18" registration. This means it should be between August 2017 and August 2018 if it is a 1-year sticker, if not between August 2016 and August 2018 if it is a 2-year sticker.

Luke is walking along when he is confronted by people on the street asking what he's going to do about Bushmaster. Asked about what he'll do. The "bend the knee" phrase from Game of Thrones is used. First mentioned in Season 7, Episode 3 on July 30, 2017. In Pop's, news reports on Bushmaster's escape. D.W. shows Luke his new merchandise. Danny arrives and introduces himself to D.W.. Bushmaster escaped the van "3 days ago". Since that was late at night and this seems like morning, it could be that this is the 4th morning after, about 76 hours or so later. It could, however, be afternoon and the capture was 3 calendar days ago, making it about 60 hours or so ago. Misty checks Nandi's social media, wondering where she has been for the last few days. Mariah wants Harlem's Paradise all cleared up. She is annoyed at Ben Donovan for changing sides. He shows her that the money's been restored, but she is still controlling with him, grabbing him by the crotch. Meditation. Danny goes through the Bushmaster fight with Luke.

Danny tells Luke how he has become more settled. 08:53 - Misty asks Bailey if Nandi's in. They take him to interrogation. Bailey's watch appears to say it's 8:53, which would mean it's morning, thus suggesting the more-like-76 hours option for the "3 days". Bailey's ID might have dates.

He says they need a rat, and Luke knows where to go. Misty interrogates Nandi, who is horrible to her. Mariah sits to talk with Anansi. She says she knew their history and lied before. Anansi says he was foolish to pity her. Luke and Danny visit Turk's shop. Turk says he has done nothing crooked in months. At the earliest, the last crooked thing he did was his deal with Jeri in Jessica Jones: Season 2, which would mean it has been at least "months" since that season. Though he could have done deals later than that, making it more than "months" since that season. But also, he could just be lying. He's not the most reliable source. Luke and Danny wait outside the nightshade farm. The duo attack the farm and take down the workers with their combined powers. They break into the main room where they are growing the nightshade. The pair burn down the building, which Danny has bought with Rand. Nandi is taken out of the precinct in shame. ID could have a date.

Luke asks questions about Mariah in Queens. Misty has sent Luke a video of Ingrid around the corner from Gwen's last night. Luke hangs up on Misty to look for her. West Indian Parade is today. In 2017, this was September 4, 2017. In 2018, this was September 3, 2018. So this season is August-September. If it's 2017, that would make Episode 10 September 3, 2017 and if the "3 days" is taken as 76ish hours, then Episodes 8 and 9 would be August 30, 2017, matching with the Yankees double header on August 30, 2017. So this would add evidence to 2017. Ridley talks to Misty about finding Ingrid. Misty has to answer interview questions about the "Rum Punch Massacre", including press asking about Karen Page's source. Luke, meanwhile, is at the hospital looking for Ingrid.

Episode 13 beginning to minute 4ish. [Episode 13 - They Reminisce Over You]

Mariah is addressed in court. Rosalie Carbone arrives. A Jamaican stands up in court and shouts that Mariah murdered her children. There is chaos on the streets. Day S1 (Seemingly same day. 0% eliminated.) Episode 13 minute 4ish to minute 7ish.

Misty gets in a gun fight with a criminal. Themi reports on WJBP that violent crime has increased 75% since the arraignment. "11 18" registration. This would mean that it is between November 2017 and November 2018 if it is a 1-year sticker, if not after November 2016 if it is a 2-year sticker. D.W. is packaging up items from the shop as he watches the news report Old ladies in Sunday hats are being attacked. Not sure that this actually means it has to be Sunday. Day T1 (Seemingly same day. 0% eliminated.) Episode 13 minute 7ish to minute 12ish.

Misty accuses Tilda of helping Bushmaster. Tilda says she needs a warrant. Once she's gone, Sheldon comes out with a feverish Bushmaster. Seemingly not long since the last episode considering Bushmaster is still at Mother's Touch. Day U1 (Seemingly same day. 50% eliminated.) Episode 13 minute 12ish to minute 16ish.

Shades comes to the barber shop. He tells Luke that he needs to go after Rosalie Carbone. The robbery was "the other day" and was after Mariah was arrested. If I had to guess, that was 2 days ago and the arrest was 3. Day V1 (Seemingly same day. 75% eliminated.) Episode 13 minute 16ish to minute 19ish.

Mariah is met by Kalinda in prison. She tricks her into giving her a knife then slits her throat. Day W1 (Seemingly same day. 75% eliminated.) Episode 13 minute 19ish to minute 24ish.

Luke goes to meet with Carbone. She has him attacked but he holds her men off and they discuss business. Day X1 (Seemingly same day. 50% eliminated.) Episode 13 minute 24ish to minute 25ish.

Sheldon takes Bushmaster away in a car. "3 19" registration. Would mean between March 2018 and March 2019 if 1-year sticker, if not, March 2017 and March 2019 if 2-year sticker. Day Y1 (Seemingly same day. 0% eliminated.) Episode 13 minute 25ish to minute 28ish.

Mariah says to Donovan that they could play it like Shades was manipulative with her. Day Z1 (Seemingly same day. 0% eliminated.) Episode 13 minute 28ish to minute 29ish.

Misty analyses all the crime scenes. She realises Mariah is cleaning house. Victims 6 and 7 tonight. This would suggest roughly 2 victims per night, so Victims 4 and 5 the night before, 2 and 3 the night before that, and 1 the night before that. If 1 was the night of the arrest, then this makes it about 3 days since her arrest. Day AA1 (Seemingly same day. 0% eliminated.) Episode 13 minute 29ish to minute 44ish.

Alex goes to Tilda for help, but she refuses. Luke and Sugar talk at sunset. One of Mariah's men tries to kill Shades, but he shoots the man before he can attack. He calls Mariah to meet. Alex's mother screams over her son's dead body. Shades meets with Mariah in prison. He tells her that they could've been out there at the top of the game if she'd just listened to him. Donovan tells her Tilda just called. Alex's body is bagged up. Luke decides that he needs to meet with Mariah. Tilda and Mariah excuses her actions as being caused by her rape. She says Harlem loves her, and that her motherhood was a gift to Tilda, because she'll never experience worse. Tilda is disgusted. She mysteriously kisses her mother on the lips and wishes her well before leaving. Mariah realises Tilda doesn't care for her. Donovan tells her Luke called. Day AA2 Episode 13 minute 44ish to minute 51ish.

Luke walks along the streets. Tilda goes to Harlem's Paradise and plays a song on the keyboard as she comes to terms with her actions. Misty trains. Shades looks at a photo. Luke meets with Mariah to talk. Mariah suddenly splutters and falls, coughing up blood. She dies in his arms, telling him they're not done yet. Day AA3 Episode 13 minute 51ish.

The New York Bulletin reports on Mariah's death on its front page, saying "The Witch Is Dead". Waiting for a HD screencap, at about (48:11 - 1:00) = 47:11 of about (69:20 - 1:00 - 2:10) = 66:10, so should look about 71.3% through the gallery when it comes out. [Needs to be revisited.] Day AB1 (Seemingly same day. 93.75% eliminated.) Episode 13 minute 51ish to minute 53ish.

Misty arrests Shades, now that his deal no longer counts with Mariah dead. Day AC1 (Seemingly same day. 75% eliminated.) Episode 13 minute 53ish to minute 54ish.

Tilda talks to Spurlock, and says to merely cremate Mariah with no fanfare. She decides she is Tilda Johnson, and there are no more Stokes family members. Day AD1 (Seemingly same day. 75% eliminated.) Episode 13 minute 54ish to minute 60ish.

D.W. says it's weird with Mariah gone. Sheldon arrives and D.W. is upset at Luke for becoming what he classifies as a crime boss. He insists Pop's must be Switzerland and tells him he has to leave, but that he will pay the rent and keep it going. D.W. says, "Personally I haven't felt this weird since November 9th." This implies that November 9, 2016 (the day Trump was announced as the new president-elect) was the last November 9th, making this September 2017. The lease is running out, suggesting the "few weeks" are nearly up. The will is read. Tilda is gifted Cornell's keyboard. Luke is given Harlem's Paradise. Luke says they should probably burn it to the ground. Day AE1 (At least next day, seemingly several days later. 0% eliminated.) Episode 13 minute 60ish to end.

Luke takes on Harlem's Paradise. Misty tells him not to become a fool. She's worried for him as he talks to Sugar about a meeting with Rosalie Carbone and Anibal Izqueda. Luke has the Biggie photo replaced with Ali. Rakim performs a song about Luke as Luke watches on. D.W. reopens the shop, with a help needed sign. Sugar tells Luke Claire has arrived, but he has her sent away. He is conflicted about his new position, but tries to remember his father's words. Assigning the Dates Observations There is no reason why Day A2, Day B1, Day C1, Day D1, and Day E1 should have to be separate, when they are seemingly the same day. They can simply be grouped as Day A2/B1/C1/D1/E1. There is no reason why Day J1, Day K1, Day L1, and Day M1 should have to be separate when they are seemingly the same day, the day after Day I1. They can simply be grouped as Day (I2/)J1/K1/L1/M1. There is no reason why Day M4, Day N1, and Day O1 should have to be separate when they are seemingly the same day. They can simply be grouped as Day M4/N1/O1. There is no reason why Day P1 and Q1 should have to be separate when they are seemingly the same day. They can simply be grouped as Day P1/Q1. There is no reason why Day R1, Day S1, Day T1, Day U1, Day V1, Day W1, Day X1, Day Y1, and Day Z1 should have to be separate when they are seemingly the same day. They can simply be grouped as Day R1/S1/T1/U1/V1/W1/X1/Y1/Z1. First Pass All the reasons it's 2017, which I've already explained and will copy here later.

New Observations So, Q8 is Monday, September 4, 2017. Therefore, P1/Q1 is Monday, August 28, 2017. P1/Q1 = Monday, August 28, 2017. Q2 = Tuesday, August 29, 2017. Q3 = Wednesday, August 30, 2017. Q4 = Thursday, August 31, 2017. Q7 = Sunday, September 3, 2017. Q8 = Monday, September 4, 2017. Q9 = Tuesday, September 5, 2017. M2 is a weekday, meaning it is Monday-Friday. M4/N1/O1 is a weekday, meaning it is Monday-Friday. Working back, that would mean M2 is Saturday-Wednesday. Overall, M2 is a Monday-Wednesday and M4/N1/O1 is a Wednesday-Friday. Therefore, (I2/)J1/K1/L1/M1 is a Sunday-Tuesday. However, on Q1, (I2/)J1/K1/L1/M1 and M2 are referred to as "last week". This means they took place in the same week, meaning (I2/)J1/K1/L1/M1 cannot be Sunday. So (I2/)J1/K1/L1/M1 is a Monday or Tuesday, M2 is a Tuesday or Wednesday, M3 is a Wednesday or Thursday, and M4/N1/O1 is a Thursday or Friday. And because, as is about to be explained, M1 = I2, this means that I1 is a Sunday or a Monday. On Q1, it is said that I1 was "less than a week ago". However, the events of (I2/)J1/K1/L1/M1 and M2 on Monday and Tuesday or Tuesday and Wednesday are "last week", meaning this is at least Monday, and it's a weekday, as is evident by it being a Jimmy Kimmel Live! night, so again, at least Monday. However, the events of I1 are referred to as "less than a week ago". Since they are Sunday or Monday, they have to therefore be Monday, and this means that Q1 has to be no later than the following Monday (just hours short of a week). So since Q1 has to be no earlier or later than Monday, it has to be Monday. Luckily, this matches with the Monday, August 28, 2017 date (and adds to the 2017 evidence). And therefore, I1 is Monday, August 21, 2017, (I2/)J1/K1/L1/M1 is Tuesday, August 22, 2017, M2 is Wednesday, August 23, 2017, M3 is Thursday, August 24, 2017, and M4/N1/O1 is Friday, August 25, 2017. This pretty much matches with the August 24th advert on M4, if you assume they just haven't taken it down yet and the 24th was the night before that scene. I1 = Monday, August 21, 2017. (I2/)J1/K1/L1/M1 = Tuesday, August 22, 2017. M2 = Wednesday, August 23, 2017. M3 = Thursday, August 24, 2017. M4/N1/O1 = Friday, August 25, 2017. If Ridenhour on Q1 is referring to Comanche's time at Harlem's Paradise as the beginning of his "week" to get him information, then this just about works, as Q1 would be exactly a week after I1. It cannot be less, as demonstrated. Nevertheless, the time between Day A2/B1/C1/D1/E1 and Day I1 should still be minimised (it's at least 2 days). Day U1 places itself 3 or more days after Day Q9. Day Z1 places itself about 3 days after Day Q9. This is why Day U1, Day V1, Day X1, Day Y1, and Day Z1 are all placed as the same day, 3 days after Day Q9. Day T1 places itself as the same day as Day X1 ideally, and not long after Day Q9. 3 days qualifies well enough as not long, allowing Day T1 to be on the same day as Day X1. Day R1 is implied to be a few days since Day Q9 because of Mariah's hearing being assembled, so there is no reason to put it earlier than that same day. So all in all, no reason to separate them. They are all Day (Q12/)R1/S1/T1/U1/V1/W1/X1/Y1/Z1. This makes them Friday, September 8, 2017. Day (Q12/)R1/S1/T1/U1/V1/W1/X1/Y1/Z1 = Friday, September 8, 2017. This is then followed by Day AA1, seemingly the same day. After that is Day AA2, then Day AA3, which is seemingly the same day as Day AB1, Day AC1, and Day AD1. On Day AD1, they are coming up on the deadline for the lease. However, this is very lenient - they could still have a while left and they're just preparing. If all the gaps are their ideal lengths, that would make AA1 Friday, September 8, 2017, AA2 Saturday, September 9, 2017, and AA3, AB1, AC1, and AD1 Sunday, September 10, 2017. On Day Q1, Luke says they have a few weeks left on the lease. That is Monday, August 28, 2017, so this would be 13 days later. That works reasonably, assuming they have several days left on the lease still. So that can be dismissed, and the days can be grouped as Day (Q12/)R1/S1/T1/U1/V1/W1/X1/Y1/Z1/AA1, Day AA2, and Day AA3/AB1/AC1/AD1. This makes them Friday, September 8, 2017, Saturday, September 9, 2017, and Sunday, September 10, 2017 respectively. Day (Q12/)R1/S1/T1/U1/V1/W1/X1/Y1/Z1/AA1 = Friday, September 8, 2017. Day AA2 = Saturday, September 9, 2017. Day AA3/AB1/AC1/AD1 = Sunday, September 10, 2017. Day AE1 can only really be placed on a guess. Are we going to say a week since Day AA3/AB1/AC1/AD1? Which would place it around Sunday, September 17, 2017. Day AA3/AB1/AC1/AD1 = Sunday, September 17, 2017. New Breakdown A2/B1/C1/D1/E1 is the point of reference.

A2/B1/C1/D1/E1 is finishes at roughly 23:55 (it might actually be after midnight but for the sake of ease). At least 45 hours pass between the two, because F1 is at least the morning after A2/B1/C1/D1/E1, and I1 is at least the day after that. I1 is Monday, August 21, 2017, starts at roughly 21:00. Second Pass List of Evidence A2/B1/C1/D1/E1 RIDENHOUR, A WEEK

Q1 is Monday, August 28, 2017. On Q1, Ridenhour says that he gave Ridenhour a week to get him information, and that the clock is ticking. While this "week" has to refer to the time since we first see him in Harlem's Paradise on Day I1, because there is no way that any less than 9 days have passed from A2/B1/C1/D1/E1 to Q1. Still, it shouldn't be much more. How important/reliable is this piece of evidence?: Non-contradictory indirect dialogue. Value: 500. Absolute longest interpretation: Technically, if need be, it could be a long time between Comanche's release and starting work. So using the Mariah evidence's absolute earliest, Monday, June 19, 2017 23:55. Earliest possible interpretation: Technically, if need be, it could be a long time between Comanche's release and starting work. So using the Mariah evidence's earliest possible, Saturday, July 1, 2017 23:55. Earliest realistic interpretation: The longest time realistically between Comanche's release and him starting work at Harlem's Paradise is about a week, so with that on Monday, August 21, 2017, the latest this can be is Monday, August 14, 2017 23:55. Latest realistic interpretation: The latest realistic is 9 days before, which gives Saturday, August 19, 2017 23:55. Latest possible interpretation: The latest possible is 9 days before, so again, Saturday, August 19, 2017 23:55. Absolute latest interpretation: The absolute latest is 9 days before, so again, Saturday, August 19, 2017 23:55. When does this evidence place it, ideally?: As short as possible between Comanche being freed and Ridenhour's comment, so 9 days, Saturday, August 19, 2017 23:55. (([June 19, 2017 23:55] × 1 + [July 1, 2017 23:55] × 2 + [August 14, 2017 23:55] × 4) ÷ 7)-(([August 19, 2017 23:55] × 4 + [August 19, 2017 23:55] × 2 + [August 19, 2017 23:55] × 1) ÷ 7) = July 24, 2017 19:51.14280-August 19, 2017 23:55 = 26.16935 days of leniency. Saturday, August 19, 2017 23:55, weight 500 ÷ 26.16935 = 19.10632. MARIAH, A FEW WEEKS AGO

Q1 is Monday, August 28, 2017. On Q1, Mariah says she learned about the Atreus Plastics deal "a few weeks ago", referring to Day E1. How important/reliable is this piece of evidence?: Non-contradictory direct dialogue. Value: 1000. Absolute earliest interpretation: The absolute longest for "a few weeks" is about 10 weeks, so 70 days. 70 days prior to Monday, August 28, 2017 is Monday, June 19, 2017 23:55. Earliest possible interpretation: The longest possible for "a few weeks" is just before the likely point of calling it "2 months". Working back, the first date at which people would most likely call it "2 months", is June 30, 2017. Therefore, Saturday, July 1, 2017 23:55. Earliest realistic interpretation: The longest time realistically is just under 1 month. 1 month would be July 28, 2017, so the earliest realistic is Saturday, July 29, 2017 23:55. Latest realistic interpretation: The minimum realistic for "a few weeks" is 3 weeks. With this being a Monday, the shortest would be 3 calendar weeks, so the Sunday 15 days prior. However, this falls short of the rule that a realistic interpretation should not be less than ¾ (75%) of the full length, and 15 days is 71%. So 16 days minimum (76%), which gives Saturday, August 12, 2017 23:55. Latest possible interpretation: The minimum possible for "a few weeks" is 2 full weeks, so Monday, August 14, 2017 23:55. Absolute latest interpretation: The absolute minimum is 2 weeks, and the absolute minimum for 2 weeks, with this being a Monday, is 2 calendar weeks back, so the Sunday 8 days prior, Sunday, August 20, 2017. We know, however, that the latest this can possibly be is Saturday, so Saturday, August 19, 2017 23:55. When does this evidence place it, ideally?: A few weeks is usually about 3½ weeks, so about 24.5 days, 25 days. This gives Thursday, August 3, 2017 23:55. (([June 19, 2017 23:55] × 1 + [July 1, 2017 23:55] × 2 + [July 29, 2017 23:55] × 4) ÷ 7)-(([August 12, 2017 23:55] × 4 + [August 14, 2017 23:55] × 2 + [August 19, 2017 23:55] × 1) ÷ 7) = July 16, 2017 06:46.42862-August 13, 2017 23:16.85717 = 28.68780 days of leniency. Thursday, August 3, 2017 23:55. weight 1000 ÷ 28.68780 = 34.85801. Maths Collected Evidece A2/B1/C1/D1/E1 August 19, 2017 23:55 N.Y.. Weight 19.10632. August 3, 2017 23:55 N.Y.. Weight 34.85801. Equations A2/B1/C1/D1/E1 (i)

August 19, 2017 23:55 N.Y.. Weight 19.10632. August 3, 2017 23:55 N.Y.. Weight 34.85801. With August 1, 2017 as "1", August 2, 2017 as "2", etc.: i = (19.99653 × 19.10632 + 3.99653 × 34.85801) ÷ (19.10632 + 34.85801) = i = 521.37118 ÷ 53.96433 = i = 9.66140 So:

i = 9.66140 Results A2/B1/C1/D1/E1 (i) = 9.66140. August 9, 2017 15:52.41600. New Observations The closest 23:55 to August 9, 2017 15:52.41600 is Wednesday, August 9, 2017 23:55. Therefore A1 is Tuesday, August 8, 2017. A1 = Tuesday, August 8, 2017. A2/B1/C1/D1/E1 = Wednesday, August 9, 2017. F1, G1, and H1 need to finally be placed between August 9, 2017 and August 21, 2017. They can be distributed at 3-day intervals, August 12, 2017, August 15, 2017, and August 18, 2017 respectively. F1 = Saturday, August 12, 2017. G1 = Tuesday, August 15, 2017.

=The Punisher: Season 2=

1976
''Check 1976 is still the best year for Frank's date of birth. It should be.''

c. 1981

 * Billy Russo is born.
 * Season 1 (needs updating): Ben Barnes' age during filming would put Billy's date of birth around July 1981.

c. 1983

 * Dinah Madani is born.<Ep 9/>
 * Season 1 (needs updating): Graduated in May 2005, meaning likely turned 22 September 2004-August 2005 so born September 1982-August 1983 - around March 1.5, 1983. Weight 2000/364 = 5.49451. Amber Rose Revah's age would put Dinah's date of birth at May 13, 1986, weight 4/(11,155/365.25) = 0.13097. ([March 1.5, 1983]*5.49451+[May 13, 1986]*0.13097)/(5.49451+0.13097) = March 29, 1983.

c. 1992

 * Billy fights with a man who calls him pretty.<Ep 8/>
 * 10-11, so approximately 11.0.

1st

 * Rafi Hernandez hires Dinah Madani, aged 18.<Ep 4/>
 * 15 years before November 16, 2016.

c. 2002
Frank and Maria get together.<Ep 8/>
 * Frank Castle meets a woman named Maria while he plays guitar. The two would fell in love.
 * Frank and Maria get engaged.<Ep 8/>

2003

 * Lisa Castle is born.<Ep 8/>

2004

 * Dinah Madani receives a car from her father for her 21st birthday present.

January

 * Frank goes on a deployment with Curtis.
 * Left somewhere between Maria becoming pregnant in September 2003 and Curtis' leg being blown off in April-May.

April-May

 * Curtis' leg.<Ep 9/>
 * Frank's wife is roughly at the same stage of pregnancy as the woman who is 7-8 months pregnant. Could be Spring 2003 or Spring 2004 depending on if it's Lisa or Frank Jr.. Frank implies that he left while his wife was pregnant with his son (not daghter), and he came back after he was born, so that works better. So a month or two before Frank Jr. is born, Spring 2004.

June

 * Frank Castle, Jr. is born.<Ep 5/>
 * Frank Jr. is "barely 8" when Frank returns from a deployment. November 2010 is the midpoint between returning home from Afghanistan around January 2008 and him leaving for Afghanistan in September 2013. This deployment finished early, so maybe 14 months instead of the usual 15. 7 months either way from November 2010, April 2010-June 2011. That would mean Frank Jr. was born May-June 2003. However, he should really be born at least a year after Lisa, who was born June 2003. So this should be at least June 2004. Going with that, Frank's deployment between January 2008 and September 2013 should be shifted to April 2011-June 2012.

April

 * Frank gets back after 15 months and meets his son.

April

 * Frank is sent on another deployment.<Ep 5/>
