Episode 7: “Art for Art’s Sake” Out of 5 When a Muse No Longer Useful Darryl: 4/5 Brian: 4.11/5

Director: David Boyd Writer: Jill Blankenship Air Date: April 1, 2025 Summary: A recuperating Angela tells the police that Daredevil saved her and she directs them to Muse’s lair. Kim reports to Fisk, who is angry that Daredevil has returned, that the primary suspect for Muse is a troubled young man named Bastian Cooper. Luca asks Vanessa to return to her criminal activities behind Fisk’s back. In a session with Glenn, Bastian thanks her for helping him to embrace his true identity. She realizes he is Muse and Bastian knocks her unconscious. Murdock and the AVTF separately find paintings of Glenn in Muse’s lair and go to save her. As Daredevil, Murdock arrives at Glenn’s office first and rescues her. As the AVTF prepares to enter, Glenn fatally shoots Muse before fainting. Murdock stabilizes her before the AVTF arrives. Fisk gives credit for stopping Muse to the AVTF and publicly declares them to be heroes. Blake threatens BB into removing eyewitness mentions of Daredevil’s involvement in the incident from her blog. A recovering Glenn tells Murdock that she heard Daredevil say her name. Vanessa seemingly sends Luca to kill Fisk, but this is a trap and Cashman kills Luca.

Director: Justin Benson & Aaron Moorhead Writer: Jesse Wigutow & Dario Scardapane Air Date: April 8, 2025 Summary: Dex is moved from solitary confinement to gen pop on Fisk’s orders.

Murdock realizes that Fisk is Glenn’s patient, further straining their relationship as he contests her anti-vigilante views. At Josie’s bar, Murdock learns that Nelson was celebrating an impending court win the night he died. Believing Fisk hired Dex to silence Nelson, Murdock interrogates Dex and injures him. Dex later kills his doctor and a guard before escaping prison. At the ball, Fisk privately blackmails Duquesne—who is the sword-wielding vigilante Swordsman—and other socialites into supporting his port project. Gallo speaks against Powell’s torture of an infiltrating reporter. BB, who is aware of Fisk’s involvement in her uncle Ben Urich’s murder, asks Gallo to help bring down Fisk and the AVTF through whatever way possivle. Murdock deduces that Vanessa hired Dex to kill Nelson and confronts her. As Fisk starts to tell Glenn that Murdock is Daredevil, Dex arrives and shoots at Fisk. Murdock jumps in front of the bullet and is critically wounded. The crowd panics as Glenn tends to Murdock.
