EPISODE 8 - "Shadows in the Glass"
Matt is brought into the plan to take down Fisk by Foggy and Karen, who also introduce him to Ben. Matt advises them to take down Fisk by legal means rather than on the down low. Meanwhile, the vigilante visits Ben and gives him information on Fisk. In a series of flashbacks, Fisk remembers his abusive father, Bill Fisk, who tormented him and his mother. It is eventually revealed that Fisk killed his father after he saw him beating his mother, and that she dismembered the body and disposed of it in a river to hide the crime. Inspired by Vanessa, Fisk goes public with his plans to rebuild Hell's Kitchen, and is hailed as a hero by the media.

episode 8 was a good one, i remember watching it with my brother in law and that what got me interested in the show.

seeing fisk's background makes sense and kinda makes you feel for him just a tiny bit.

I loved this episode, it was really helpful to understand Fisk's character.

(Love your icon, Alex

I also loved this episode for the same reason.

Fisk had such a horrible childhood, not way you don't feel bad for the kid.

One of my favorite episodes for sure. Fisk's background story. Very engaging from start to end. And the end part where Fisk goes public with his plans to rebuild Hell's Kitchen... poor Ben.

With the new season being less than a month away, we've decided to start a little
rewatch to get us even more excited, and to keep things fresh. We'll be doing weekly
rewatches - remember to avoid spoilers/key plot points from future eps
because people who haven't seen Daredevil yet might join us for the rewatch.
Everyone's welcome to join, let's get this going! ♥

It's one of my favorites of the whole season. Fisk is the focal point, with the flashbacks of his childhood... amazing ep.

**fly me to the moon** · 03-08-2016, 05:58 PM
