[Richard Turpin]

VERY MINOR SPOILERS AHEAD

.....MikeS, the whole segment was superbly done. From the moment Matt Murdock was first attacked with the needle until he emerged into the daylight, via a brief interlude with the Albanians I was on the edge of my seat. Murdock just got the shit kicked out of him with loving attention to detail, that scene where he is down on the floor and someone runs in from off-camera and just knees him in the fucking face! Then to watch him wander further down the corridor, breathing heavy, sounding like he's gonna have a heart attack and then more bad guys come into frame! The red lights, alarms and rioting inmates in the background all added to the intensity and surrealism.

I can't rate the fight scenes from all 3 seasons highly enough. Even though we know Daredevil is taking impossible hits to the face, the makers manage to maintain an aura of bone-crunching plausibility throughout.

I hope the rest of the season is as good, but even if it's not, this classic scene is worth this months Netflix subscription on its own.
