[Fisk visits Dutton in the prison infirmary after Castle's attack]

The physician says that your condition is grave, that your lungs are filling with liquid. In a few hours, you're likely to suffocate in your own blood. But you won't suffer alone. I'll be here. Because you were right. In prison, there's only room for one kingpin.

Always the last place you look. But you knew I was coming, huh?

I heard you. Three stories down.

You do know that sounds creepy, right?

Yeah, I've been told.

I brought you coffee.

No, thanks.

Right. Forgot, you like to suffer. Well, the joke's on you... 'cause our vending machine coffee really sucks.

I know where to start.

You always know where to start. You just never know when to stop, Matt.

[Matt is interviewing Wilson Fisk in prison]

Sometimes I'm glad I'm in here. The fate of New York City is out of my hands, for once.

[slams his hand on the table] That's bullshit!

I don't know what you expect from me. But we're finished here. Mr. Donovan? [Donovan clicks off the tape recorder]

Vanessa. [This gets Fisk's attention] You asked me if I remembered the art gallery. I do. I remember her very well. She's out of the country; she....wants to come back.

[to Donovan] Leave us. [Donovan steps out]

So listen to me very closely: I will use every legal loophole and footnote to make certain that never happens. You see, unlike your other adversaries, Mr. Fisk, I can break you without breaking a single law. You may have expensive lawyers, but with one envelope and $6 postage, I can make sure Vanessa never sets foot on American soil again. One letter to the right office, and I get her visa pulled. I can prove she was an accomplice to every one of your crimes. And now you're thinking you can serve your sentence, hop on a jet, go to her whenever you like. Live somewhere like Monaco, or…I don't know, wherever the hell you fat cats go to sun yourselves. But you can't. You can visit her, but you'll never live with her. Because this is New York, Wilson. You live here. This is your jungle. This is your blood, like it is mine. She will never come... and you'll never leave. You screw with me now, just a little bit…and you'll never really be with your one and only Vanessa ever again.

[Fisk snaps, breaks his handcuffs, lunges over the table, and pounds Matt's head repeatedly against the table]

SPEAK HER NAME AGAIN! GO AHEAD! [Matt punches him, and Fisk slams him into the table again] Yes, the son of a boxer!

You... You are running this place! Yeah, you did set him free...

You ask such small questions, Mr. Murdock.

I know you're regaining power in here-

Yes, ask my lawyer. He'll deny it. Ask the guards, they'll deny it! Ask the inmates here. They'll cut their tongues out before they talk! But I have something to say to you: When I finally get out of this cage, I will dismantle the lives of the two amateurs THAT PUT ME IN HERE!! You, Mr. Murdock, and Franklin Percy Nelson!

No, I-- I put you here! Not Nelson! I did!

The two of you took the laurels. You'll both take the blame. I'll chop both the heads off that snake, and I'll spend more than $6 on postage to bring you down! You see, I've had a lot of time to reflect on my journey here, Mr. Murdock! My mistakes, everything I took for granted. While I try and sleep in this bleak place, the one thing that keeps me warm is the thought that I will look down upon this city, the city that birthed me, with the woman that I love, whom I love with everything that I am! If you're worried that Frank Castle will wreak havoc on Hell's Kitchen, [throws Matt back into his seat]...just wait.

JDJacques Duchamps

I know what you've done, and who you have killed. The list is long. The pilot in Buenos Aires, the lawyer in Berlin... and that very messy episode in Morocco. I'm still trying to understand how one woman can fit six bodies in the trunk of a Maserati.

Are you gonna try to kill me?

JJacques

Something like that.

Well, you ought to know... it's rude to keep a girl waiting.

You would never have pulled this patriarchal shit with Ben. I can take care of myself.

EEllison

You're right. And I'll never make that mistake again. Not about someone I care about.

Now you need to go in the back and get the waitress. You tell the cook and anyone else who's back there to find the biggest piece of stainless steel and you get under it. Go now.

Wait a minute, wh-what's happening?

The Buick. It drove around the block three times before it pulled up.

Who are they?

Just some guys who are about to walk into a diner for the last time.

You-you wanted them here. You parked me outside like...bait.

You need to go.

You're such an asshole.

Yeah. You got that right.

Look, I might generally be considered out of my skull, so this might not mean much, but this could be the craziest, most batshit thing I've ever heard in my life. People that can hurt you, the ones that can really hurt you, are the ones that are close enough to do it. People that get inside you and... and... and tear you apart, and make you feel like you're never gonna recover. shit. I'd... I... I would chop my arm off right here, in this restaurant, just to feel that one more time for my wife. My old lady, she didn't just break my heart. She... She'd rip it out, she'd tear it apart, she'd step on that shit, feed it to a dog. I mean, she was ruthless. She brought the pain. But she'll never hurt me again. You see, I'll never feel that. You sit here and you're all confused about this thing, but you have it. You have everything. So, hold on to it. Use two hands and never let go. You got it?

I can't let you start a war for the wrong reasons.

Maybe a war is what I need. Maybe I need that. These people, they took my children from me! They killed my kids! Don't you get that?!

We do right by them! Help me. Work with me to find the men who gave the order!

And then what, Red? We gonna-- We gonna bring 'em in for justice, is that what we're gonna do? Your way's bullshit, Red, it doesn't work! I need 'em... I need 'em gone, it's gotta be permanent, it's gotta be finished!

I-- I understand. You're right; my way isn't working. So maybe just this once... Maybe... Y'know... Your way's what it's gonna take.

Wait, "just this once". No, no, no, Red, that's... that's not how it works. It's just... You cross over on my side of the line, you don't get to come back from that. Not ever.

That candle that you're burning at both ends? Sooner or later, it's gonna fizzle out.

I'm fine. Really.

You know the problem with martyrs? The good ones end up dead.

I see from the uniform you've taken the Devil's name to heart.

Yeah, I had to... 'cause of people like you.

You said we're going to war.

We are. And there'll be a time and place for you to turn yourself loose. But right now, the last thing you want is for everybody here to be scared shitless of you. Tame that fire... or they'll tame it for you.
