The way things are going around here, I'm thinking about taking an early pension. Move my mom somewhere warm.
Be a shame. The only cop on the force we know for sure is honest.
Never see Serpico? Honest cops are usually the ones get shot in the face.

I wanted to make this city... something better than it is. Something beautiful. YOU TOOK THAT AWAY FROM ME! YOU TOOK EVERYTHING! I'M GONNA KILL YOU!
Take your shot.
[as he thrashes Daredevil] This city doesn't deserve a better tomorrow! It deserves to drown in its filth! It deserves people like my father! People like you!
[suddenly blocking his attack] This is my city! My family!
[defeated; laughs at Daredevil] You really think... this will change anything? You think one man in a silly little costume will make a difference…? [Daredevil knocks him down]
You ever wake up in the morning... from the second you get out of bed, it's like... every molecule in your body hurts?
No, never.
I'm in agony, dude.
What, did you go back to the gym?
Hell, no! Do I look capable of making healthy life choices? I went out, Matthew. Went out dancing.
I'm choosing not to believe that.
And yet, it's true.
You know what my problem is?
Well, it ain't the moves.
You know I got the moves. That's the tragedy of you being blind, you've never seen me dance.
Yeah, but I can cite the legends I heard in law school.
Well, uh, Mr. Marino's dog was viciously beaten by his neighbor after the dog, um... defiled the neighbor's statue of Saint Francis.
"Defiled"?
Um... humped repeatedly until completion.
That's a dog I want to defend.
You can't drink the water here. Josie's pipes have issues.
Rust, mold.
I think I can actually see the bacteria floating in there.
Oh, ew, ew.
See, that... that's why we, uh, keep our cocktails neat.
Pretend you're abroad. On vacation someplace exotic, but no mojitos. Josie just throws mint in the beer.
[Matt seems to have Castle cornered]
[pulls a pistol] Bang. [shoots Daredevil in the head]
Hey, Foggy, can I get some aspirin?
You sure you don't want an x-ray? Maybe a psych eval?
An aspirin's fine, buddy.
It's an ongoing investigation. But our intelligence people are close to completing a profile.
A profile?
Even got a code name.
Like what? "Killdozer," or "Dumbass With A Gun"?
Not quite. They're calling this one "The Punisher".
[Castle walks into a pawn shop. He approaches the owner, who nervously grabs the handle of the double barreled gun under his desk]
Do I know you?
I need an NYPD mobile communications rig. One that gets encrypted tactical frequencies.
[scoffs] What do I look like, RadioShack? Anyway, dealing in this shit is illegal. [Castle puts a couple $100 bills down on the counter] You sure you're not a cop? 'Cause that's trouble I don't need. [Castle moves to pick up his money] Whoa, whoa, whoa! I gotta ask, right? Just hold on. [The owner unlocks a cabinet in the back and removes a heavy satchel containing a communications rig] Yep. Straight out of Officer McDipshit's dashboard. Gets you tactical bands, surveillance feeds. Hell, it'll probably pick up the mayor banging his boyfriend. [Castle scoffs] It's a grand. We're talking about a one-of-a-kind item. [Castle counts out a few more $100s and plants them on the counter. Castle notices the surveillance camera watching the counter]
Video tape.
Sure. What the hell. [He removes the tape from the system]
What about the double-barrel under the counter? [Castle deposits a few more $100s. The owner takes out his double-barrel and empties the shells. Castle pockets the shells, then picks up the communications rig and begins walking towards the door]
[clears throat] Hey, man, hold on. Sure I can't get you anything else? You know, I got it all, man. Yeah, bondage... back-door, grannies. Or maybe you're in the market for something younger? She's barely 12. Guaranteed! [Castle stops and drops his satchel] Haha, you like that, huh? For a 100$, she's all yours. [Castle flips the sign in the door from "Open" to "Closed", then turns around and begins walking back towards the counter] That's my man. [As he strides towards the counter, Castle picks up a baseball bat] What the hell are you doin'? Hey, man, just take it easy. [stammering] I'm just trying to make a buck! [Castle swings the bat at the owner's head]
[Karen and Foggy are at the office]
Anything else we've been ignoring?
Uh, yeah. Um... There you go. [hands Foggy a bunch of envelopes]
Thank you. [flips through the mail] "Overdue." "Past Due." "Final Notice." Hey! "First Notice." That's a win.
You think, uh you think he's crazy? Uh, the Punisher?
No. I think he was inevitable.
Inevitable? How so?
Maybe maybe we created him. All of us. The moment that we let Daredevil, or the Devil of Hell's Kitchen, or whatever it is...
There's there's no connection.
Well, actually, I think it's a pretty straight line, Matt. Daredevil practiced vigilante justice in our backyard and we applauded him for it. I know that I did. And we never stopped to think that maybe his actions could open the door for men like this. Men men with guns. Men who think that the law belongs to them.
There's a difference.
Well, I don't see it. Not anymore.
I'm just saying, I know it can be hard.
Do you? You know it can be hard? You run around this city in a pair of little boy's pajamas and a mask. You go home at night, right? Take that mask off, maybe you think…it wasn't you who did those things, maybe it was somebody else. Well, see, soldiers... we don't wear masks, yeah? We don't get that privilege.
