Matt Murdock is finally back in action after a whole lotta brooding, and let’s just say the Daredevil suit’s not the only thing getting dusted off. The show leans hard into everything fans love, gritty fights, deep moral dilemmas, and Frank Castle doing what Frank Castle does best, throwing truth bombs and bodies around like it’s therapy.
Meanwhile, Fisk is out here playing twisted mind games, keeping Vanessa’s side-dude locked up like some sick love triangle revenge fantasy. The emotional stakes? Sky high. The punches? Heavy. The drama? Chef’s kiss. Whether you’re here for the violence, the vigilante vibes, or the slow unraveling of Matt’s fragile sense of justice, this double feature delivers. Let’s break down those juicy endings before the next twist knocks us out.
Daredevil: Born Again Episode 5 Ending Explained
Matt Murdock just wanted a loan, not a showdown. But life had other plans. Episode 5 ends with a bang, literally, as Matt walks out of a failed bank meeting and right into a full-on robbery orchestrated by Luca’s crime family. Why? Because Vanessa Fisk told Buck to make Luca cough up $1.8 million as “oops money” for messing with Viktor’s trucks. Desperate times, meet desperate criminals. So, what does our ex-vigilante lawyer do? He grabs a red ski mask from one of the robbers and springs into action. Classic Matt.
What looks like a standalone bottle episode actually loops back to the Five Families’ underworld drama. Matt’s unexpected intervention means Luca’s robbery plan flops hard, leaving him broke and probably on Viktor’s hit list. Plus, there’s a blink-and-you-miss-it connection to Ms. Marvel’s world, Matt’s loan rejection was delivered by none other than Yusuf Khan, Kamala’s dad, hinting at some sneaky Young Avengers foreshadowing.
So, by the end of Episode 5, Matt is reluctantly dipping his toe back into Daredevil waters, criminals are getting cranky, and the city’s about to boil over with gang drama and political corruption. It’s not just a red mask, it’s the first step back to red devil mode.
Daredevil: Born Again Episode 6 Ending Explained
Matt Murdock may say he’s not Daredevil anymore, but Episode 6 makes it very clear: once a red-masked vigilante, always a red-masked vigilante. After Angela pleads with him to look into the shady disappearances her uncle Hector (aka White Tiger) was investigating, Matt brushes her off. Classic Matt, all logic, no cape. But when Angela takes matters into her own hands and lands in Muse’s serial killer lair, Matt’s guilt punches him straight back into action.
What follows is a beautifully brutal, emotionally charged fight where Matt channels all his self-blame, grief, and inner chaos into pummeling Muse. But it’s not just about rage, Matt’s faced with a classic superhero choice: save Angela or catch the villain. Spoiler alert, he saves her. Because even after all his denial, Matt is still that hero.
Meanwhile, Fisk is playing 4D chess. Using the Muse chaos as a PR opportunity, he forms his own Anti-Vigilante Task Force, basically the NYPD’s morally bankrupt all-stars, with Officer Powell and Cole North reporting directly to him. So yeah, the Mayor’s cracking down, but he’s also building his own army.
Episode 6 ends with Matt back in the game, the stakes higher than ever, and the city spiraling into chaos. And just like that, the Devil is definitely back, this time with receipts.
