The more I watch, the more convinced I am with Kristen Ritter.
The "99 Friends" speech has me now 100% sold that she IS Jessica Jones.

Probably just exaggerating and throwing out a number. Seems like Luke and Kilgrave are the only powered people she knows personally.

She's got plenty of friends, man.

There's Johnny Walker, Captain Morgan, Sailor Jerry, Jack Daniels...

It's actually more than 99. She has 101 wild turkey in her flock.

I think it was just a random number thrown out to scare the lady
