D A R E D E V I L ♢ Episode Discussion {1x05}: World on fire



EPISODE 5 ; "World On Fire"
Fisk explains the situation to his allies, including Chinese leader Madame Gao, of whom he asks a special favor. Elena Cardenas, a renter of powerful businessman Armand Tulley, comes to Nelson and Murdock after Tulley, who wants to convert her apartment building, sends men to wreck her home. Nelson goes to Tulley's lawyers at Landman and Zack (where he and Murdock once interned), represented by Marci Stahl, Nelson's ex-girlfriend. She explains that Cardenas and her neighbors can either take a large settlement or be evicted. While looking for complaints against Tulley at the police station, Murdock realizes Detectives Carl Hoffman and Blake are corrupt when he hears them kill a Russian. Murdock later incapacitates Blake and uses his cell phone to find Vladimir. Fisk pays Turk Barrett to reveal to Vladimir that Fisk killed Anatoly, and as they prepare for a war against Fisk, their forces are destroyed in a suicide attack by one of Gao's workers. Vladimir survives, but Murdock finds him, as they are surrounded by police.

just watched this one...

still am not really warming up the friends, idk they just kind of bore me compared to everything else. foggy especially just isn’t that funny to me even though he is supposed to be. i dont really see chemistry between them either.

i loved the kiss with matt and the dark haired girl (Forgetting her name right now). it felt just a tiny bit rushed to me but it was still cute.

fisk is such a creep. but i felt like id already seen the whole dinner date with the chick and those scenes felt repetitive to me.

the show hasnt picked up for me yet in the way i was hoping but i feel like it could get better so I’m gonna keep watching. the ending of this episode especially made me wanna see the next one to see what happens.

Tbh, I'm going through the ep discussion threads right now and this ep I've completely forgotten. Except for the Matt/Claire scenes, I can't seem to recall any moment that made an impact on me... was this the one where the explosion happened?

Season ONE ● REWATCH



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! ♥


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Episode summary for #05. World on fire:

Fisk explains the situation to his allies, including Chinese leader Madame Gao, of whom he asks a special favor. Elena Cardenas, a renter of
powerful businessman Armand Tulley, comes to Nelson and Murdock after Tulley, who wants to convert her apartment building, sends men
to wreck her home. Nelson goes to Tulley's lawyers at Landman and Zack (where he and Murdock once interned), represented by Marci Stahl,
Nelson's ex-girlfriend. She explains that Cardenas and her neighbors can either take a large settlement or be evicted. While looking for
complaints against Tulley at the police station, Murdock realizes Detectives Carl Hoffman and Blake are corrupt when he hears them kill a Russian.
Murdock later incapacitates Blake and uses his cell phone to find Vladimir. Fisk pays Turk Barrett to reveal to Vladimir that Fisk killed Anatoly,
and as they prepare for a war against Fisk, their forces are destroyed in a suicide attack by one of Gao's workers. Vladimir survives, but Murdock
finds him, as they are surrounded by police.
