• Wilson Fisk’s men shoot Moon Knight in the head and dump him in the river.
• Danny Rand meets with Wilson Fisk and tells him that the Knights knew it was Rand who sold them out. In a flashback, Rand relates the events that occurred after Daredevil accused him of treachery. Rand admitted to his treachery and explained that he did it because Fisk had his goons threaten Rand’s daughter. He originally went to Fisk with the intention of killing him and couldn’t do it for fear of going to jail and abandoning his daughter. He gave Fisk the name of Daredevil and all of their plans. Shang-Chi turned his back on Rand and left the meeting.
• Rand reveals that the telling of this story was to distract Fisk. Fisk then runs to the room where his comatose wife is kept and find Daredevil holding her, ready to break her neck. As he threatens to kill her, Spider-Man arrives and talks him out of the proposed murder. Spider-Man negotiates Fisk’s wife’s release in exchange for Fisk leaving the country for good. Spider-Man threatens to direct Nick Fury to Fisk if he does not leave or if anything happens to Daredevil. Fisk agrees to the proposal.
• Moon Knight pulls himself out of the river and makes his way to a police station despite his injuries. He reveals his identity to the police and tells them that Wilson Fisk beat him and had him shot.
• At the airport, as Fisk plans to leave the country, he gives orders to have Matt Murdock killed, Dr. Strange’s hands broken, and Spider-Man’s high school blown up while class is in session. At this moment, cops arrive and arrest Fisk for the attempted murder of Steven Grant, aka Marc Spector (Moon Knight). Kingpin is shocked to realize that Moon Knight is still alive, so much so that he says this aloud.
• A news report then shows that Steven Grant identified Fisk in a police lineup and that Fisk was arrested “on numerous counts, including attempted murder, battery, assault, extortion, and racketeering.” The report continues to say that Fisk is in jail and bail has been denied. The report notes that never before has a costumed hero come forward and given up his identity in the cause of justice.
Notes:
- When Moon Knight is at the police station, figures resembling Cloak and Dagger can be seen in the background, handcuffed. Both members of this super-hero team appear to be female in this universe.
- During the news report the Knights are shown in the aftermath of the event. Dr. Strange is meditating, Danny Rand is reading to his daughter, Shang-Chi is leaving town, Daredevil is on the roof of a Catholic Church in a pose of grief, and Peter Parker is shown walking in the rain in front of a store bearing a large amount of his merchandise, looking ashamed.
