Daredevil Born Again Episode 5 "With Interest" Synopsis

On Saint Patrick's Day 2027, Matt Murdock goes to New York Mutual bank to discuss a loan for his law firm Murdock and McDuffie.

But his application is denied by assistant bank manager Yusuf Khan due to Matt's penchant for taking on clients who cannot afford to pay. 

After Matt Murdock leaves the bank, a group of criminals led by Northern Irishman Devlin enter the bank and take everyone hostage.

They work for Luca and are attempting to steal the $1.8 million he needs to pay to the tariff imposed on them by Vanessa Fisk. 

But Matt hears them and tells Kirstin McDuffie to call the police while he returns to the bank. 

When the police arrive, Devlin talks with hostage negotiator Detective Angie Kim. Inside the bank, the would-be robbers use Yusuf Khan to access the bank vault.

While Yusuf stalls for time at the vault Matt takes out two of the robbers and uses his abilities to open the vault. Inside they find a rare diamond which the robbers are targeting. 

Matt pretends to give the diamond to Devlin as the police enter the bank. Devlin passes it along to an accomplice among the hostages, who later realizes that she does not have the diamond. 

Trying to escape, Devlin disguises himself as a police officer and leaves, but is caught and beaten by a masked Matt Murdock. 

Later, Matt secretly returns the real diamond and accepts an offer to have dinner with Yusuf's family including his marvelous daughter Kamala.

Daredevil Born Again Episode 6 "Excessive Force" Synopsis

After the foiled bank robbery, the leader of the tracksuit mafia, Luca, visits Mayor Fisk and refuses to pay the $1.8 million to Viktor. 

Fisk raises the amount to $2.8 million and gives Luca to the end of the week to pay it. 

He then learns from the city's sanitation department that the murals painted across the city by street artist Muse are painted using human blood. They believe he's a serial killer with more than 60 victims.

When Muse is confronted by two women in the street he kills them and leaves their bodies next to a new mural as public confirmation of his actions. 

Mayor Fisk learns of this during a fundraiser with the city's elites, including socialite Jack Duquesne, who are against his port rebuild plans. 

To deal with Muse, Fisk establishes an Anti-Vigilante Task Force (AVTF) with additional powers and he recruits notorious police officers such as Powell and former detective Cole North. 

Meanwhile Angela Del Toro believes her uncle Hector was investigating Muse before he was murdered and asks Matt Murdock to continue the work of the White Tiger. 

When Matt refuses, she goes herself and is abducted by Muse. 

Alerted to her disappearance by Angela's mother, Matt finally decides to suit up as Daredevil. He finds Muse's lair and rescues Angela, but Muse gets away. 

Meanwhile, Fisk gives Adam an axe and challenges him to a fight in which Fisk beats him and drags him back to his cell.
