• Frank Castle : It's... One Batch, Two Batch, Penny and Dime, you know? It was her favorite book. You gotta cross the ocean, and go fight. You see, whole time you're thinking you're gonna be scared, right? But then you're not. See, that part of it was always easy for me. Killing. Even watching my buddies die, it just didn't mean nothing. The first time I got scared was on a plane on the way home. I kept thinking God was gonna pull the rug out from under us, you know? Shit, that's his kind of funny, you know. But the plane landed safe and we were home. Driving through traffic. Yeah, you pass fast food and donut shops and all that greasy shit, the shit you fought to protect, and then the car stops. We were outside her school. I get to her classroom, right? She's in there, but she's got no idea. She's got no idea Daddy's home. I walk in, these kids, they're not even studying, they're-they're doing some kind of yoga. Yeah. You know? She's there. She's doing her poses, you know, she's bending and, you know, she's moving. She looks like a flower. Yeah. And you know, you can't even understand it, you know, how does something like that have... How does something that beautiful have... How does that... how does that come from me, you know? And she looks up and she sees me. I see her. By God, that's real. That's real, Red. Boom. In an instant, she's across that classroom floor, she's in my arms. She's squeezing me so tight, I swear I was gonna bust a rib, you know? We just stayed there like that, we're holding each other. Teacher's filming the whole thing on her phone, you know, she's gonna put it on YouTube or some shit. She can't hold the thing steady, because, you know, she's... she's bawling so hard, and the kids are all wailing, you know, they're screaming. And me? Shit, I'm the worst of all. I'm a... I'm a rubber-faced clown, you know? I cried so hard. But not my baby. Not my girl. You know, she's my girl. She's... she's not crying, she's holding me up. My girl, she's keeping me on my feet. She says, "I knew it, Daddy. I knew it." And then we go home. To the wife, the boy. Place is the exact same, it's like it was just holding its breath waiting for me to get back, you know? Then it hit me. All of it, you know? The first time I felt how tired I was, you know, I was just tired, you know? You ever been tired, Red?

  Daredevil : Yeah.

  Frank Castle : So, you know. It's just, I couldn't do nothing, you know? All the things. I couldn't take my wife to bed. Ball with the boy. Shit... I was too tired, I couldn't even drink a goddamn beer, you know? But not her. My girl was up. See, she wanted to, uh, she wanted me to tuck her in. She... she outgrew it, she knew it, but she didn't care. She wanted it. She had that book. Her favorite book was out on the pillows. One Batch, Two Batch, Penny and Dime, you know? I read her that book every night before this shit. I read it every single night, but, see, that was over now, because Daddy's home now. She looked at me and she begged me, Red. She begged. She begged. I said, "No. Daddy's too tired, see. But I'll... I'll read to you tomorrow night. I promise." Yeah. Never think that for her there was not gonna be any tomorrow, see? The last time I'd see her, I'd be holding her lifeless body in my arms. Meat was spilling out of her, Red. The place where her face used to be. I think I'm done, Red. I think I'm done.

• Frank Castle : I guess, uh... I guess I was wrong.

  Daredevil : About?

  Frank Castle : About you being a pussy.

  Daredevil : Don't get all sweet on me now, Frank.

• Frank Castle : I gotta say, sometimes... sometimes I think you really just might be the Devil.

  Daredevil : Sometimes I think I might be, too.

• [Matt joins Foggy on the sidewalk outside Josie's. Foggy glances inside, where Karen is paying their tab] 

  Foggy Nelson : Careful, Matt.

  Matt Murdock : What's that?

  Foggy Nelson : Keep going like this, you just might end up happy. And for a Catholic boy, that's a pretty dangerous thing.

  Matt Murdock : I don't know what you're talking about.

  [Foggy pats him on the shoulder] 

  Foggy Nelson : Godspeed, Matt Murdock.

  [Karen comes out] 

  Karen Page : Hey! Where next?

  Foggy Nelson : Home. I'm gonna sleep for a week. Someone had the awful idea of doing shots!

  [Karen giggles as Foggy removes his newspaper from his satchel to use as an umbrella] 

  Foggy Nelson : I think I've had enough excitement for one evening.

  Karen Page : 'Kay...

  Foggy Nelson : See you two in the morning!

  [dashes off into the rain] 

  Matt Murdock : See ya, Fog.

  Karen Page : Bye!

  [Karen smiles at Matt. She looks up at the sky, and then sticks her left hand out to get a feeling of how hard the rain is coming down] 

  Karen Page : Do you mind the rain?

  Matt Murdock : No.

  [Karen takes him by his left hand] 

  Karen Page : Then I'll walk you home.

  [Karen giggles as she leads Matt away] 

• [Matt, Foggy and Karen are at Josie's, watching the evening newscast report on Frank Castle's arrest] 

  Foggy Nelson : Gotta hand it to Brett.

  Matt Murdock : I'm glad people like him are looking out for Hell's Kitchen.

  Foggy Nelson : Yeah. And I'm glad someone was looking out for him.

  Karen Page : Press are calling Castle a "cold-blooded psychopath." The D.A.'s going to have a helluva time using his prosecution to turn herself into a hero. It's all working out perfectly.

  [Karen sips her beer] 

  Matt Murdock : Wow. Way to bring us down...

  Karen Page : [laughs]  I'm...!

  Matt Murdock : Hey Josie, would you mind turning the TV off? It's upsetting some of the regulars.

  [to Foggy and Karen] 

  Matt Murdock : I think we've had enough Punisher for one evening.

  Karen Page : Okay.

  Matt Murdock : All right?

  Karen Page : I'll drink to that.

  Matt Murdock : To Brett. And to a safe Hell's Kitchen.

  Foggy Nelson : Here-here.

  [They clink their bottles and drink] 

  Foggy Nelson : I'm gonna get us another round. I hope you two saved room for shots.

  [Foggy gets up from the table] 

  Karen Page : Oh, no-no...

  Matt Murdock : Thanks, Fog.

  [Karen takes another sip from her beer and anxiously runs her left hand through her hair] 

  Matt Murdock : Hey. You okay?

  Karen Page : [smiles]  Yeah.

  [Matt raises his eyebrows and smirks] 

  Karen Page : Okay, that wasn't convincing, was it?

  [laughs nervously] 

  Karen Page : Umm... I don't know. I just, uh... Days like today remind me how precious life can be, you know?

  [Matt puts his left hand on her right arm] 

  Matt Murdock : What's your brother like?

  Karen Page : Um... he's sweet. He's a... good brother.
