What To Expect From Daredevil: Born Again Episode 9
Episode 8 showed Matt piecing together that it wasVanessa who arranged for Foggy’s death, not Kingpin. However, his confrontation with the Fisks is cut short as Bullseye escapes prison and attempts to kill Kingpin.Matt ends up taking the bullet meant for Fisk, and although he is guaranteed to survive the encounter since he’ll appear in season 2, episode 9 will follow the aftermath. The season finale may also seal the fate of Matt and Heather’s relationship. He is going to have to come clean about his identity soon if he wants to keep her trust, especially with Heather’s growing distaste for masked vigilantes.
An important character has been notably absent in the most recent episodes. Matt’s previous conversation with Frank Castle was part of what encouraged him to become a vigilante again, sothe show is likely saving Punisher’s ultimate return for a big finale moment. He is confirmed to return inDaredevil: Born Againepisode 9 as Punisher, and he’ll fight side by side with Daredevil, though their opponent still remains to be seen.Daredevil: Born Againneeds to stick the landing with its season finale as it’ll be key in setting up season 2, which shouldn’t be a concern considering season 1’s success.
