Matt Murdock realizes that Foggy Nelson was killed because he was prematurely celebrating a legal victory that depended on the testimony of a star witness, indicating someone wanted Foggy silenced before that testimony. This leads Matt to suspect that the murder was orchestrated to prevent that testimony from coming forward.

Matt visits Poindexter in prison and aggressively presses him to explain why he killed Foggy Nelson and whether Fisk hired him for the murder. When Poindexter refuses to answer, Matt violently slams his head into a table and then tells the guards that Poindexter attacked himself, playing into Poindexter's plan.

After being sent for medical attention due to injuries from Matt's attack, Poindexter rips out his own tooth and spits it into a guard's eye, unlocking his restraints. He then kills the guard and a nearby doctor by throwing medical equipment at them, dons the guard's uniform, and escapes from prison to attend Fisk's gala seeking revenge.

Vanessa Fisk is revealed to have ordered the hit on Foggy Nelson. Matt overhears her heart racing during a conversation with Fisk, which helps him put together that she was behind the assassination attempt. This revelation is a key plot point in the episode.

Wilson Fisk informs Vanessa that he has nearly secured all the funding for his new redevelopment project, crediting her support. Vanessa expresses confusion over why Fisk abandoned his criminal empire. Fisk then brings her to a secluded brick building for a reason not fully detailed in the summary, indicating ongoing collaboration and tension between them.
