I think Daredevil: Born Again Episode 9 will unwrap with a Punisher Daredevil team-up

Daredevil: Born Again will stream its ninth and final episode of the first season on Tuesday, April 15, 2025. The eighth episode ended on a shocking note as Matt took the bullet fired by Benjamin Poindexter to kill Wilson Fisk. It also set up a lot of interesting plotlines that have the potential for intriguing storylines for the season finale.

One of the major revelations of the eighth Daredevil: Born Again episode will probably play a role in the upcoming one, causing Frank Castle to come to Daredevil's rescue. That major revelation is the identity of the mastermind of Foggy's death.

"At his inaugural Black and White Ball, Mayor Fisk tightens his grip on New York City. Matt Murdock learns shocking information when an old enemy reaches out."

We learn who put the hit on Foggy Nelson in the eighth Daredevil: Born Again episode:

Matt realizes that Foggy's client, Dumb Benny, would've come across something in Red Hook. We don't know yet what it is as of now in Daredevil: Born Again. But it should've been something major that Foggy was confident enough to celebrate the impending night before the hearing of that case. However, given how the prologue of the first episode played out, we know that the case never went to court.

Matt puts together that the mastermind who sent Benjamin Poindexter after Foggy was none other than Vanessa Fisk, who was in charge of the Kingpin's empire. What Benny had on, either she her one of the five crime families would've directly tied to her. Therefore, Vanessa hired Bullseye to kill Foggy in the first episode.

However, it seems that Wilson is unaware of her role in Foggy's death in "Heaven's Half Hour", the first episode of Daredevil: Born Again. He may learn this in the next episode and take steps to protect his wife from Daredevil, setting the stage for a high-stakes epic finale.

Speculating what will happen in Daredevil: Born Again Episode 9:

Two weeks ago, Marvel released a new trailer featuring scenes from the fifth to ninth episodes. Therefore, based on this trailer, we can theorize that these are some of the major moments from the ninth episode of Daredevil: Born Again.

Matt reveals his secret to Heather

The midseason trailer above features a moment explaining to an unseen character his reasoning behind putting on the mask. Based on how the latest episode played out, Matt will recover from the bullet wound and come clean to Heather about his vigilante alter ego.

Wilson Fisk will protect Vanessa at all costs

Vanessa tries to inform Wilson about her role in Foggy's death right before Matt confronts her under the guise of a dance. But Wilson may learn about this and send the anti-vigilante task force after Daredevil to protect Vanessa from his wrath. While he won't publicly save the man who took a bullet for him, Wilson might reveal Matt's secret to the anti-vigilante task force.

This leads to the action scene between the force and Daredevil at Matt Murdock's new apartment. Even if Daredevil is a skilled fighter, the force may completely overwhelm him. But that's where Daredevil gets help from an unexpected source.

Frank Castle Returns

The midseason trailer for Daredevil: Born Again also teases the return of Frank Castle. A lot of the police in the anti-vigilante task force are fans of The Punisher and bear his tattoo. This is in reference to the use of the character's skull by the police in the real world. Thus, Frank Castle finally confronts the people corrupting his symbol and helps a fellow vigilante who is nothing like him.
