You know, you're good with people.
Yeah, I'm a real charmer.
I'm serious. The only thing I ever saw stop a thug mid-fight... was a bigger thug.
Yeah, I like to keep it thuggish.

The Irish may not have invented revenge, but we sure as hell took some time perfecting it.
I gotta say, sometimes... sometimes I think you really just might be the Devil.
Sometimes I think I might be, too.
It's... One Batch, Two Batch, Penny and Dime, you know? It was her favorite book. You gotta cross the ocean, and go fight. You see, whole time you're thinking you're gonna be scared, right? But then you're not. See, that part of it was always easy for me. Killing. Even watching my buddies die, it just didn't mean nothing. The first time I got scared was on a plane on the way home. I kept thinking God was gonna pull the rug out from under us, you know? Shit, that's his kind of funny, you know. But the plane landed safe and we were home. Driving through traffic. Yeah, you pass fast food and donut shops and all that greasy shit, the shit you fought to protect, and then the car stops. We were outside her school. I get to her classroom, right? She's in there, but she's got no idea. She's got no idea Daddy's home. I walk in, these kids, they're not even studying, they're-they're doing some kind of yoga. Yeah. You know? She's there. She's doing her poses, you know, she's bending and, you know, she's moving. She looks like a flower. Yeah. And you know, you can't even understand it, you know, how does something like that have... How does something that beautiful have... How does that... how does that come from me, you know? And she looks up and she sees me. I see her. By God, that's real. That's real, Red. Boom. In an instant, she's across that classroom floor, she's in my arms. She's squeezing me so tight, I swear I was gonna bust a rib, you know? We just stayed there like that, we're holding each other. Teacher's filming the whole thing on her phone, you know, she's gonna put it on YouTube or some shit. She can't hold the thing steady, because, you know, she's... she's bawling so hard, and the kids are all wailing, you know, they're screaming. And me? Shit, I'm the worst of all. I'm a... I'm a rubber-faced clown, you know? I cried so hard. But not my baby. Not my girl. You know, she's my girl. She's... she's not crying, she's holding me up. My girl, she's keeping me on my feet. She says, "I knew it, Daddy. I knew it." And then we go home. To the wife, the boy. Place is the exact same, it's like it was just holding its breath waiting for me to get back, you know? Then it hit me. All of it, you know? The first time I felt how tired I was, you know, I was just tired, you know? You ever been tired, Red?
Yeah.
So, you know. It's just, I couldn't do nothing, you know? All the things. I couldn't take my wife to bed. Ball with the boy. Shit... I was too tired, I couldn't even drink a goddamn beer, you know? But not her. My girl was up. See, she wanted to, uh, she wanted me to tuck her in. She... she outgrew it, she knew it, but she didn't care. She wanted it. She had that book. Her favorite book was out on the pillows. One Batch, Two Batch, Penny and Dime, you know? I read her that book every night before this shit. I read it every single night, but, see, that was over now, because Daddy's home now. She looked at me and she begged me, Red. She begged. She begged. I said, "No. Daddy's too tired, see. But I'll... I'll read to you tomorrow night. I promise." Yeah. Never think that for her there was not gonna be any tomorrow, see? The last time I'd see her, I'd be holding her lifeless body in my arms. Meat was spilling out of her, Red. The place where her face used to be. I think I'm done, Red. I think I'm done.
I guess, uh... I guess I was wrong.
About?
About you being a pussy.
Don't get all sweet on me now, Frank.
Careful, Matt.
What's that?
Keep going like this, you just might end up happy. And for a Catholic boy, that's a pretty dangerous thing.
[Foggy has swiped some caviar while he and Matt crash a party]
Are you gonna kick us out, bro?
WWaiter
Depends. Are you pompous jackasses?
Uh, well, we're not... pompous.
A long time ago, before he died, my father did business with the Roxxon Corporation.
Roxxon?
Energy, cleaning supplies, macaroni and cheese. Child labor, slave trade. They have their fingers in everything. I believe it's called diversification.
You're the only person I can trust.
Well, sweetheart, you don't break into my house and then talk to me about trust.
[Blake pays a visit to Nelson & Murdock]
You know it's really not a good idea to piss her off. So, what can I do for the Assistant District Attorney?
BBlake
It's more, "what I can do for you", Mr. Nelson. We need all your files on the Grote case. Notes, interviews, any and all recordings and e-mails.
And in return, we get...
BBlake
I convince District Attorney Reyes to scratch the names of Nelson and Murdock off her shit-list.
Wow. There's an actual list?
BBlake
Mr. Nelson, I-
I'm sorry. Believe me, the sooner this Punisher mess is off our plate, the better. So show me a subpoena and... [Blake appears to be somewhat nervous] Is there a problem?
BBlake
[takes a seat] Are you really gonna make me jump through hoops for this?
Trust me, there's nothing I'd rather do more than cooperate with your office. But a legal firm sharing privileged communications with a client, I mean, even a deceased one, without a court order? I've seen lawyers get disbarred for less. And I don't know about you, but I worked really hard for my law degree. Nights and everything.
BBlake
Reyes... she staked all her political chips on the conviction of this Punisher freak. Now, if things'll go her way, there'll be an opening in the District Attorney's office in the not-so-distant future.
And DA Tower has a nice ring to it.
BBlake
Now, I'd start considering the benefits that could accrue if your firm were more... cooperative.
Like I said. Show me a subpoena, and I'll cooperate like a son of a bitch.
BBlake
Reyes is gonna roll over you like a tank.
You keep saying that. And yet... still kinda here.
I don't drink anything they don't serve at Josie's.
Yeah, well, I don't see swill on the menu.
I wanna know how you found me.
I know who you are because I watch the news. "The successful apprehension of Wilson Fisk."
I wear a mask.
Well, you can't mask that ass. I'd know it anywhere.
I have a rule of my own.
Shoot.
No sex.
Oh, my God. You have a pair on you. This may come as a surprise to you, but I've actually moved on in the ten years since you left. I'm seeing someone now, which is only part of the reason why I have zero interest in ever starting anything up with you ever again.
Of course you do. Check, please.
You're still so arrogant.
Just realistic.
What makes you think every man you meet wants to sleep with you?
Because so far, they have.
Is this your first case?
CRChristopher Roth
Second. I won my first. Domestic violence. I believe in protecting women.
[sarcastically] Thanks, from all of us.
Is this about saving a man or saving a vigilante?
He's a person. Like you, Foggy. Like me. And he shouldn't have to die.
