Daredevil is working out
in his personal gym when Heather Glenn interrupts him, reminding him that his
best friend is getting married today! Meanwhile, at the Dibney Museum of Human
History, a social worker named Betsy Beatty chaperones a field trip for underprivileged
kids. They move through the exhibit, showcasing the costumes of various
supervillains, when they come to the costume of the Gladiator. The real
Gladiator, Melvin Potter, shows up just then and kills a guard, before donning
his costume once more. Melvin had followed Betsy there, who it turns out is his
social worker. Melvin is convinced that Betsy loves him and nearly kills a man
who tries to run for help.
Meanwhile, Matt helps
Foggy get ready for his wedding, when Foggy’s parents and sister arrive, along
with his old college friend, Porkchop Peterson. Matt points out that they
better get a move on when Foggy realizes that he’s lost the ring! Back at the museum,
the Gladiator demands that a champion be sent to fight him within one hour or
he’ll start killing the child hostages! Melvin forces a kiss on Betsy and she
angrily slaps him away, only further convincing him the he needs to win her
love through gladiatorial combat. Elsewhere, Matt and Porkchop attempt to take
a cab back to search the Nelson and Murdock law offices, to see if the ring is
there. While stuck in a traffic jam, Matt hears about the situation with the
Gladiator on the radio and makes a hasty exit.
Daredevil makes his way
to the museum and uses his senses to surveil the situation. Just as Gladiator
is about to start killing his hostages, Daredevil makes his presence known and
the two begin a brutal battle! When Gladiator gets the upper hand, Daredevil
throws them both backward into the Roman Arena exhibit. Daredevil is able to
knock Gladiator’s helmet off and continuously strikes at his pressure points,
eventually taking his large foe down. Though he put her through a huge ordeal
today, Betsy still wants to help Melvin, and Daredevil promises that he’ll get
the best lawyer possible. Matt hurries back to the church just in time but
admits to Foggy that he still couldn’t find the ring. Foggy then sheepishly
realizes that it was on his pinky finger the whole time! Foggy and Debbie are
then pronounced husband and wife!
