"Someone missing as long as Antoine usually stays missing. Normally, I don't give a shit. More billable hours for me. But Luke being the client makes this case personal, which is against my policy."
Jessica Jones[src]

The Ambush at the Russian Hideout was an attempt by Jessica Jones and Luke Cage to track down and rescue Antoine Grier.

Background[]

"Kid's name is Antoine Grier. He got in deep to a loan shark. Disappeared a week ago."
Luke Cage to Jessica Jones[src]

Antoine Grier took a loan from Len Sirkes, a loan shark in the area. When his sister Serena discovered his actions, she gave Antoine money to repay Sirkes; however, Antoine, with his friend Victor invested it in illegal drugs. The friends then found an abandoned warehouse and started growing marijuana there. Meanwhile, Antoine, who abandoned his apartment, did not contact Serena about his plans.

"How about a new deal? All this weed is worth three, four times what he owes you. Let me keep Antoine, all of this is yours."

"Luke... That's... It's over. Done. Right?"
Luke Cage and Jessica Jones[src]
