A homeless man finds and
is killed by Kirigi, still with his sword through his abdomen. He stumbles
through the streets, coming upon an abandoned church, where he stays to
meditate and heal. A few days later, Heather finds a depressed Daredevil
sitting in the rain. Feeling useless without his radar, he determines to get it
back somehow. He mentions his old mentor named Stick, the man who originally
taught him to cope with his blindness and heightened other senses, and sets out
to find him, nearly slipping and falling right away. This recklessness sends
Heather into a spiral, worrying that Matt’s going to get himself killed and
leave her all alone. Ultimately though, she determines she has to help him find
Stick.
Heather sets out,
unknowingly being watched by Elektra, who in turn is being stalked by Kirigi.
Daredevil finds Turk at Josie’s to ask him about Stick. Without his radar,
Daredevil is hit from behind but before Turk can kill him, Josie tells him to
do it outside. They take Daredevil outside, where he gets a second wind and
takes out Turk and the others, the rain acting as a subpar substitute for his
radar. Daredevil heads out but Turk noticed that something seemed up with him
and plans to track Stick down as well to find him. Meanwhile, at a pool hall,
Heather pays a guy to take her to Stick, even pulling a gun on him when he
tries getting fresh with her. Elsewhere yet again, Turk breaks into the Cord
Conglomerate in order to steal one of the Mauler armors, figuring it’ll give
him the edge he needs against Daredevil.
Meanwhile, Daredevil
interrogates two guys and finds out that Wall-Eyed Pike might know where Stick
is. The two guys notice Daredevil almost slip when he heads off and figure they
can take the opportunity to shoot him. Elektra kills the two guys before they
can shoot Matt, as Kirigi continues to hunt her, deciding the time is not yet
right to strike. We then find Wall-Eyed Pike at his apartment, complaining
about how Stick swindled him out of money. Elektra comes through the window and
persuades Pike to tell her where Stick is. He tells her Stick is at a pool hall
called Duke’s. No later has Elektra left than Turk, in the Mauler armor, breaks
down Pike’s wall asking about Stick as well. Immediately after Turk leaves,
Daredevil comes through another window, and Pike once again tells that Stick is
at Duke’s. Frustrated, Pike packs up to leave town, when he finds Heather at
his door, preemptively telling her about Duke’s, while breaking down in
frustration.
At Duke’s, we find the
very man everyone has been looking for, a blind old man named Stick. He hustles
some guys out of some money, but before they can do anything, Heather and
Daredevil simultaneously arrive from opposite directions. Daredevil takes down
the guys who were planning to attack Stick, who says he could’ve handled them
just fine himself. Before Daredevil can tell Stick why he needs his help, Turk
breaks down the wall. The Mauler armor does him no good, and Daredevil
effortlessly takes him out anyway. Elektra watches from outside and Kirigi has
decided the time is now right to attack. The two engage in yet another epic
fight, with Elektra doing all she can to fend him off. She ducks into a
warehouse, and runs Kirigi over with a truck, knocking the both of them off the
pier and into the water. She crawls out and Kirigi does as well not long after,
engulfed in flames. She takes his sword and decapitates him, ending the fight
for good. Elektra then muses what she’ll do if she’s forced to kill Daredevil
to protect herself, and a chill runs through her, colder than the wind.
