The dynamic between Fisk and Murdock continues to delight. Before making a last stand, he gives Murdock the name ‘Leland Owlsley.’ Murdock, with the deck stacked against him, has an ace up his sleeve… But can Murdock murder someone? Vladimir questions how Murdock will feel when Fisk attacks Murdock the way he attacked Vladimir. “There’s only one way to stop Fisk,” Vladimir says. His act of heroism was a hope that Murdock will avenge his brother Anatoly’s death, but a good selfish act is still a good act, right? Or is it? Either way, Vladimir had some biting parting words for Murdock. Yes, it was obvious it would happen, but when Vladimir grabs a gun and shouts at Murdock to leave, I smiled! From the depths of a Siberian prison to running drugs in New York, Vladimir hasn’t led the greatest of lives. Vladimir ends up helping Murdock to escape, and having a great moment of redemption. “Whose side is this man on?” the headline screams from the screen. The ‘masked man’ as Murdock is known is held responsible for the shootings and possibly the explosions. Footage is released to the news channel showing Murdock battering the police at the start of the episode. After Murdock refuses to play ball, Fisk gives the go ahead to a sniper, placed high in the rooftops. To counteract the nuisance, Fisk had his contacts call the entire media faction to the scene. He arrived at the warehouse scene after the police arrived. When news broke out about the explosion, Ben Ulrich immediately knew the Russians were the target.

Murdock refuses.įisk’s chess-like thinking appears in full force as a result. Fisk warns that the city will burn the masked man “as effigy, in abhorrence and disgust.” He offers Murdock a way out: kill Vladimir and stop being a hero. Murdock’s ideology is dangerous and needs to be stopped. “We both can’t have what we want,” Fisk sneers. Fisk says that they both want to save the city in different ways. However, Fisk and Murdock have first contact during the warehouse siege in the form of a radio conversation. The police who handcuffed Murdock at the start had orders to murder the surviving Russians. Fisk controls the police operation to surround the warehouse.
The dilemma for Murdock posed by this episode is that murder might be Murdock’s only way to dispose of Fisk. “Problems are just opportunities that haven’t presented themselves” But he cannot cross the line and kill somebody. True, but we know the real reason Murdock is not a murderer. What is the difference between letting someone die and killing someone? Murdock’s excuse for keeping Vladimir alive is that Vladimir has information about Fisk. He couldn’t let Murdock die, and that is where he fails. Vladimir shows his gratitude for saving his life by mocking Murdock. He uses a flare to cauterise Vladmir’s wound. Of course, Murdock cannot let Vladimir die, so he rings up Claire for some medical advice. Murdock struggle to keep Vladimir alive and to find a way out… Fisk is controlling the operation behind the scenes, in the place where we are used to seeing him: the back of his chauffeur-driven expensive car. Their location is found by the police, who eventually surround the warehouse. In and around the warehouse is where we spend much of the episode. Murdock escapes with Vladimir to an abandoned warehouse. He allows the cops to cuff him, but flips all over the place and batters them. The cliffhanger was resolved with ease by Murdock. Fisk is dominating the chess game between him and Murdock… Their part is the only bit that falls flat, but everything else works perfectly.

She even paused to give Murdock advice on how to keep Vladimir alive. Claire actually did some hospital work in the aftermath of the explosions that rocked Hell’s Kitchen. Murdock and Fisk spoke for the first time, outlining their differences (and similarities). Although it mainly took place in one location, the pace and plot never took a turn for the worse. ‘Condemned’ continued Daredevil’s streak of brilliance.
