Notes & Trivia[]

  • This episode is rated TV-MA. It contains strong language and scenes of graphic violence. Viewer discretion is advised.
  • Behind-the-scenes appearance of Elliot Grote. His funeral service is held in this episode.
  • Matt Murdock receives his new carbon-reinforced helmet in this episode.
  • This is the first and only appearance to date of Rory of the Kitchen Irish. It is unknown whether or not he survives his encounter with Frank Castle at Central Park. When apprehended by Daredevil, he was still alive, but may have succumbed to his injuries after being arrested.

Allusions[]

  • The title of this episode, "Penny and Dime", is taken from a children's book found in Lisa Castle's bedroom. Karen Page comes upon the book. Frank Castle recites a rhyme from the book just before he opens fire on the Irish mobsters.
  • Reference is made to the Dogs of Hell. This was a biker and criminal cartel who ran into a spot of trouble in the previous episode.
  • Finn Cooley refers to the Punisher's handgun as an "iron". This is actually an old school term, used often in stories of the old American Southwest.
  • In Melvin Potter's workshop, there is a pair of metal telescoping tubes that bear a strong resemblance to the Stilt Man's stilts.
  • Reference is made to Samantha Reyes in this episode. She is the New York district attorney.
  • Reference is made to Blake Tower in this episode. He is the assistant district attorney.

Bloopers[]

  • When Karen Page suddenly leaves the Nelson & Murdock office with the John Doe file, Matt Murdock seems unaware that she has gone. His enhanced hearing should have alerted him to her absence immediately.
  • Another "sensory deprivation" moment occurs when Matt Murdock is at the Carousel in Central Park. He is unaware of Rory's presence until he hears him grunting. Matt should've heard the man's heartbeat and breathing first as soon as he arrived on the scene.

Quotes[]

  • Father Lantom: In each of us there is a world, webbing out, reaching others. Creating reactions. Sometimes equal, sometimes opposite.

....

....

  • Father Lantom: We rush to say, one life gone... but each of us is a world. And today, a world has been lost...

....

  • Frank Castle: I gotta say, sometimes... sometimes I think you really just might be the Devil.
  • Daredevil: Sometimes I think I might be, too.

....

  • Karen Page: Press are calling Castle a "cold-blooded psychopath." The D.A.'s going to have a helluva time using his prosecution to turn herself into a hero. It's all working out perfectly.
  • Daredevil: Wow. Way to bring us down...

....

  • Frank Castle: Never think that for her there was not gonna be any tomorrow, see? The last time I'd see her, I'd be holding her lifeless body in my arms. Meat was spilling out of her, Red. The place where her face used to be. I think I'm done, Red. I think I'm done.

....

  • Seamus: May your neighbors respect you... trouble neglect you... the angels protect you... and heaven accept you.
