What to Expect in the Season 2 Finale
Warning: Light spoilers for the setup of Episode 8 below.
The penultimate episode left the story in a chaotic state. Wilson Fisk is facing a major downfall following the shocking death of his wife, Vanessa Fisk, and the return of Bullseye (Wilson Bethel) has thrown Hell’s Kitchen into further disarray.
Episode 8 is set to focus heavily on the consequences of these actions. The episode title, “The Southern Cross,” refers to a constellation, which often symbolizes navigation and hope, but in the context of this show, it likely points to a final, bloody reckoning between Matt Murdock and the Kingpin.
