In Daredevil S1E5:
In Daredevil S1E5, Wilson Fisk escalates the gang war in Hell’s Kitchen as Matt’s double life gets even more complicated. Foggy & Karen get involved in a housing dispute that leads them to help an elderly woman, Elena Cardenas. Matt identifies several dirty cops that Fisk has on his payroll & elicits a series of addresses from one of them. Meanwhile, Fisk and Vanessa are having a second try at a first date. While those two are getting closer, Matt & Claire go their separate ways. And Matt’s way leads him straight into a trap Fisk has laid to take out the Russians and the masked vigilante making his life difficult. Bombs explode throughout Hell’s Kitchen, with Foggy, Karen, and Mrs. Cardenas caught in the crossfire. A masked Matt ends up surrounded by police, seemingly with no way out.
