They found the secret.
What secret?
Immortality. Bringing the dead back to life.
Come on, Stick.
I thought you were a Catholic, Matty. Doesn't your whole belief system hinge on one guy pulling that off?

All right, Frank. You don't want to tell us? I'll tell you. I'm gonna tell you exactly what kind of man you are. You're the kind of man this city needs. Because, ladies and gentlemen of the jury, we all know this city needs help. Needs it now. Not tomorrow, not next week, not when the day comes, when the corruption that Wilson Fisk left in his wake is flushed out for good, and the police force is finally back on its feet. We need it now. 'Cause this city's been sick. And the cops, they can't fix it alone, they need... we all need men and women who are willing to take the fight themselves. The kind of people who risk their lives so that we can walk safe at night in our own neighborhoods. The ones our esteemed District Attorney here is trying so hard to destroy. New York needs these people. We need... heroes.
Why are you so good?
I'm not.
Yes. There's a light inside you. I tried to snuff it out in college. I'm so lucky I failed.
You have a gift, Mr. Castle. I assumed that the stories I read in the paper about your attacks on the criminal world were apocryphal. How could one man be capable of such... violence? But then I saw it, with my own two eyes. And when one comes across someone with such talent -- with such a gift, well... You don't let that go to waste.
[Fisk has arranged for Castle to take out Dutton, the prison kingpin]
The hell is this?
I'm in control now. And I've set you free.
What does that mean, "free"? [stands up, panting] I'll show you.
'Cause everyone warned me that prison would be an inhumane environment. It is. But I... I find it refreshing. The perfect microcosm of the animal world. When an animal wants something, when it needs something, other things... need to be stepped on.
You want me on the outside so I can step on every piece of shit I see. That way, nobody gets strong, and we... the city's yours for the taking.
Something like that.
Yeah. So if you can do that, if you can get me out, why not just do it yourself?
Because I play the long game, Mr. Castle. You see, when I'm finally let out of this cage, it won't be to wage war. It will be to win one. You, sir... You need to focus on "now". I've given you a chance to walk free, to put that gift of yours to work, to find... What does Dutton call him? The Blacksmith. If I were in your shoes... I would use this opportunity to find your justice, to kill your way to justice. And not for me. Of course not. Not for yourself. For your family. For them.
You don't get to create danger, and then protect us from that danger. That's not heroic. That's insane.
DDutton
I just wanna make that clear... in case you get any ideas about stepping up.
I have no intentions of doing that.
DDutton
Cut the shit, fat man. I've known guys like you my whole life. I killed most of 'em. You ain't never seen a throne you didn't wanna sit in.
[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.
Wait... You're dead.
There is no such thing.
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.

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.
