Ben Urich Matt, it's Ben Urich.
I know who it is. What do you want?
Urich I got a lead on my story. I think that Natchios was set up by the real Kingpin.
Why are you telling me this?
Urich They say the Kingpin doesn't just kill you. He kills your whole family. I think your girl's in trouble. I thought you might know somebody that could protect her.
Fisk was right about you. He said you wouldn't go easy.
Fisk? Fisk is the Kingpin?
Yeah. That whole red rose thing? He loves that shit. It's not my style. He hired me to kill Natchios, and to gut your pretty girlfriend too. But me, I'm going for the hat-trick. I told him I'd do you for free.
Good. Then, this will be quick.
(Elektra breaks free from Daredevil)
Stay, stay with me.
(Elektra dies)
Oh-oh-oh! Look at that! Wilson Fisk is in the hizzie! Come on, we might never get a chance like this again. Come on, let's go! (to Fisk) Mister Fisk? Mister Fisk, it's Franklin Nelson from Nelson and Murdock --
Excuse me. You want to talk to Mister Fisk, you make an appointment. Okay?
It's all right, Wesley. (to Nelson) I know who you are. You're the blind lawyers from Hell's Kitchen.
Actually, actually he's the blind one. I'm deaf.
I'm sorry, Mister Fisk, my partner's a little overzealous. We can't represent you.
Why's that?
Yes, why is that, Mister Murdock?
Because we only handle clients who are innocent.
"Innocent", he says. That's pretty funny. You know, I've learned one thing in all my years in this business.
What's that?
Nobody's innocent. Nobody. Have a great time at the party. (Fisk and Wesley exit.)
I just... Matt, for one night I just wish, I just... (he spots Elektra, in an evening gown, on the balcony.) Matt, I just wish I could give you my eyes for one night.
Your client, Mister Lee, he made his first payment today.
That's great. You should be very happy.
Yeah, it's fantastic. He paid in fluke. Fluke is a fish, Matt. Did you know that? Because I sure as hell didn't.
Mister Lee is a good man, and he-he doesn't have a lot of money, and he goes fishing on the weekends.
Yeah, well, I go salsa dancing on the weekends, but I don't shake my ass to pay my phone bill, you know what I'm sayin'?
...
We need some better clients. I'm tired of these pro bono cases.
What is your problem with our clients? We have good, honorable clients, decent people. What's your idea of better? Define "better". Huh? What would be a "better" client?
"Better" means rich and guilty, okay? Remember how they taught us in law school how to create a moral vacuum, so you can represent people who aren't all necessarily innocent?
That was your best course, as I recall.
Yeah, well, you don't have a moral vacuum, Matt. You're completely vacuumless.
What's wrong, Wesley?
Have you seen the papers today? Somebody's been talking.
Somebody always does.
I said I was sorry. What do you want?
Details. You owe me that.
Her name's Elektra Natchios.
She sounds like a Mexican appetizer.
It's Greek, genius. Her father's Nikolas Natchios.
The billionaire?
Yeah, see? Yes, the billionaire.
Well, then, as your attorney in this matter, I advise you to marry the woman immediately.
I'll take it under consideration.
Uh, I was just looking for some honey. Could you help me out?
Elektra (without looking up): Right in front of you.
Well... could you be a little more specific?
What, are you --
Blind? Yeah.
Oh, I am so sorry!
It's okay. (extends a hand) Matt Murdock.
'Elektra: (shakes hands) Nice to meet you, Matt Murdock.
Nice to meet you, uh... I didn't get your name.
I didn't give it. (she exits the coffee shop.)
...
I just wanted to get your name. I didn't want any trouble.
Look -- I don't like being followed. So don't. (She turns to storm off.)
Uh, wait a minute, wait a minute. Wait a second, take it easy! (He catches Elektra's hand.)
And I don't like being touched! (She throws a punch; Matt counters and pins her arms.)
What don't you tell me what you do like, and we'll start there. Okay?
You sure you're blind?
Sure you don't wanna tell me your name?
...
Does every guy have to go through all this just to find out your name?
Try asking for my number.
Where'd you learn how to fight like that?
My father. He had me study with a different sensei every year since I was five years old.
Sounds like he wanted to turn you into some kind of a warrior.
No. Just not a victim.
You killed the only two people I ever loved. Why?
Business. That's all it ever is, is business. I was working for Fallon at the time. Your father was supposed to throw a fight. And your girl was in the wrong family at the wrong time. It's all business. (long pause) And you've been in my business for too long!
...
You hear that, blind man? Sirens. They're coming for you.
For me? Didn't you hear? The word's out on the Kingpin. They're coming for you. I can hear the police radios from here.
No, no. I swear, I'll tell 'em who you are.
Yeah? Go ahead. Tell 'em. Tell all the guys at Ryker's all about how you got beat by a blind man. It'll be like blood in the water.
There's been a problem.
Bullseye failed.
Correct.
Send the guards home.
B-but sir --
I was raised in the Bronx, Wesley. This is something you wouldn't understand.
Bless me, Father, for I have sinned. It's been a week since my last --
Father Everett What the hell are playing at, Matt? You didn't come here for forgiveness. You came for permission, and I can't give you that.
Justice isn't a sin, Father.
Father Everett No, but vengeance is. You see it every day on the street: violence begets more violence. Is that how you want to live your life? A lawyer during the day, and then judge and jury at night. Is that what you want?
Somebody has to do something.
Father Everett But why you?
Because I can. Because I'm not afraid.
Father Everett Well, I'm afraid for you, Matthew. Look, a man without fear is a man without hope. May God have mercy on you for your sins and grant you Everlasting Life, Amen. (sighs) I'm not too crazy about the outfit, either.
You don't know how I feel. I want revenge.
Revenge won't make the pain go away. Trust me. I know.
There's no place for me now.
Yes, there is. Stay. Stay with me. Please.
Stop! It wasn't me! It was a hitman named Bullseye. I didn't kill your father!
Liar.
