Daredevil S01e10 Gr — Watch

"Nelson v. Murdock" is a rare superhero episode that prioritizes dialogue over combat. By the time the credits roll, the physical threats of Hell’s Kitchen seem secondary to the psychological wreckage of the protagonists. It is a testament to the show’s writing that the most painful blow Matt Murdock takes in the entire season isn't a punch from a criminal, but the look of disappointment on his best friend's face.
