The Punisher (2017)	comment	The Punisher is an original series based on the Marvel Comics character of the same name. It's set in the Marvel Cinematic Universe â€” like most other shows produced by Marvel Television â€” alongside The Defenders, Daredevil, Jessica Jones, Luke Cage, and Iron Fist, spinning off from Daredevil. The series originally premiered on Netflix in 2017.The series follows former United States Marine Corps Lieutenant Frank Castle (Jon Bernthal, reprising his role from Daredevil) who, after his wife, son and daughter are murdered in a shoot-out between rival gangs, decides to wage a one-man war on crime.Haunted by memories of his past and hunted by law enforcement, Frank finds himself drawn back into an all-new war when he learns that what happened to his family may have more to do with his past in the Marine Corps than he thought.Ebon Moss-Bachrach co-stars as Frank's Vitriolic Mission Control David "Micro" Lieberman, as well as Ben Barnes as Billy Russo, Amber Rose Revah as Dinah Madani, Jason R. Moore as Curtis Hoyle, Daniel Webber as Lewis Wilson, Shohreh Aghdashloo as Farah Madani, and Deborah Ann Woll reprises her role as Karen Page from Daredevil (2015) and The Defenders (2017).The show's first season premiered on November 17th, 2017, with a second season released on January 18th, 2019, which added Josh Stewart as John Pilgrim, Floriana Lima as Krista Dumont, Giorgia Whigham as Amy Bendix, and Corbin Benson and Annette O'Toole as Anderson and Eliza Schultz.On February 18, 2019, it was announced the 2nd season was going to be its final one as the series was canceled alongside Jessica Jones (2015), effectively killing off the final original Marvel shows on Netflix. In February 2022, the series, alongside the rest of the Defenders franchise, exited Netflix's platform, moving to Disney+ the next month. In March 2023, it was confirmed that Bernthal would be reprising his role as the Punisher in the Disney Plus series Daredevil: Born Again.

The Punisher (2017) / int_1282bf4f	type	No Celebrities Were Harmed
The Punisher (2017) / int_1282bf4f	comment	No Celebrities Were Harmed: David takes heavy cues from Edward Snowden, as an NSA analyst who was forced to go into hiding because of illegal activities he uncovered. Anvil, Billy Russo's private military contractor firm, is probably meant to be based on Blackwater, given its sketchiness. At one point, when hiring operatives for the SWAT team ambush, Russo tells one operative who says he's had a hard time finding employment, "Listen, there's not much of anything I can do about a YouTube video of you guys opening up on a bunch of Iraqi civilians." Lewis Wilson is a thinly-veiled reincarnate of Oklahoma City bomber Timothy McVeigh. Both are veterans. McVeigh served in the Gulf War and spent his free time reading up on various military topics, including explosives. While no explanation is given to how Lewis became proficient with IEDs, it's implied that he did independent research during his time in the military. Both McVeighnote "His head just disappeared... I saw everything above the shoulders disappear, like in a red mist." and Lewisnote "I once took out a machine gun nest, saw this guy's head explode and all I thought was, 'Good shot.'" specifically recall shooting people in the head during their wars. Both are staunch proponents of the second amendment. Lewis gets arrested while distributing gun rights pamphlets with O'Connor. By comparison, McVeigh quit the NRA because he thought they were too liberal. In a letter to representative John J. LaFalce, McVeigh wrote, "It is a lie if we tell ourselves that the police can protect us everywhere at all times. Firearms restrictions are bad enough, but now a woman can't even carry Mace in her purse?" Lewis says something similar in this show when he and O'Connor are handing out flyers at the courthouse: "Every day they lose more of their liberty. It's being chipped away, in that building, right now, and they don't even know it... No, we are not protesting, we are handing out literature."

Unlike Daredevil (2015) and the rest of The Defenders (2017), the fantastic elements are absent here and the show is much more oriented towards espionage, action, as well as conspiracies that deal with government and corporate corruption. Basically, the series is less MCU and more like 24.

The leader of a group of bounty hunters points out to Castle that there's six of them versus Castle, who promptly kills the other five and kneecaps the leader for interrogation.

The Punisher (2017) / int_1616e13	type	Ripped from the Headlines
The Punisher (2017) / int_1616e13	comment	Ripped from the Headlines: Frank Castle has always been a controversial character â€” a Shell-Shocked Veteran/Vigilante Man/Superhero Packing Heat who is openly critical of corruption in the military and law enforcement â€” especially in The New '10s. Netflix has not hesitated to confront any of those controversies head-on. The Lewis Wilson "gun control" arc references the ongoing debate in American politics over gun legislation in the face of a spate of a recent mass shooting. The show takes no overt side in the debate and presents multiple viewpoints, none of which are shown as heroic, morally righteous, or completely honest, with every extreme presented by Strawman Politicals just as bad as each other; no side is presented as wholly right or wrong: O'Connor is the most vocally racist far-right character in the show and is presented as a hypocritical liar who pretends to be a Vietnam veteran while actually never having seen combat at all. Conversely, gun control advocate Senator Stan Ori is shown blatantly manipulating information if not outright lying to the public to forward his agenda. Lewis is a domestic terrorist, and is shown not as a deranged fanatic, but a Tragic Shell-Shocked Veteran who never really came back from his time overseas and was corrupted by O'Connor's influence. Karen Page is presented as the middle ground, believing that guns aren't the problem, but the people abusing them arenote Karen actually points out to Senator Ori that most of Lewis's victims were killed not with guns, but with IEDs made from common household objects you find in hardware stores. Thing is, Karen killed James Wesley, has a shady past, and she's a gun-owner who's frequently been tangled up with the vigilantism of Matt and Frank, so even she's not wholly non-biased in this regard. Frank's views on the subject are left unstated (of course, he's a gun-toting vigilante), but most of the people Frank is fighting throughout the season are in league with corrupt members of the government and got their guns through perfectly legal channels. The show delves deep into issues surrounding US veterans from the ongoing War on Terror. From PTSD to feelings of abandonment and betrayal by the country they swore to serve, not one of the former soldiers shown is without issues; ones that Private Military Contractors like Anvil are quick to take advantage of. As one might expect, Russo is the Dragon Ascendant. One element of the source material that caused endless criticism when it was first published was military and intelligence agencies using the War on Terror to smuggle heroin out of Afghanistan â€” just as they did during The Vietnam War. In the series, it's not even questioned that the US government made millions in heroin — the conspiracy is that the profits acted as untraceable funding for war crimes such as torture and death squadsâ€¦ just like in Vietnam and Nicaragua. Which is lampshaded during the initial Cerberus debriefing when Billy Russo says the mission sounds a lot like the Phoenix program that was conducted in Vietnam.

The Punisher (2017) / int_1c445e86	comment	Poor Communication Kills: The Operation Cerberus members have kidnapped and tied up Ahmed Zubair. Frank has no idea that Zubair is an innocent cop because he doesn't speak Pashtu, and Rawlins' questions to Zubair about him being a cop are only asked in that language. Rawlins and Schoonover have gotten wind of a potential target and lay out a plan of attack. Frank and Russo look at the attack plans and realize that this is an ambush, as Frank thinks it's suspicious that an elusive target would wait out in the open in a place where the terrain makes egress difficult. Despite Russo taking Frank's side, Rawlins overrules the two Lieutenants, stating that his intelligence trumps the war whisperer's reservations. Sure enough, it is an ambush. Many of Frank and Russo's men are killed, and Schoonover loses his right arm to a mortar blast. When the survivors return to the compound after the mission, Frank expresses how angry he is at Rawlins for not caring about the men, by punching him in the face hard enough to knock the sight out of his left eye.

The Punisher (2017) / int_222dc873	comment	Black Comedy: In keeping with the tone of a show about a former force recon marine having his family murdered and then taking brutal revenge on those responsible, the humor is absolutely pitch black. In Episode 7 - "Crosshairs" when Frank enters Colonel Bennett's headquarters while Morty is in the midst of BDSM. Then Frank takes his ski mask off, showing Bennet his face. In Episode 8 - "Cold Steel": There's a brief moment during a serious discussion where David is worried that they may have traced them by David accessing Rawlin's file. Frank assures him that it is most likely that they didn't, given that the recent incidents with Gunner's murder and Frank's attack on Bennett's army base went unreported. This segues into a quick mood shift that's absolute hilarity, made all the sweeter by the absolutely calm and matter-of-fact way Frank delivers the line before continuing their serious discussion. In Episode 9 - "Front Toward Enemy", when Karen debates Senator Ori on the radio, Ori points out that she had sympathy for Frank Castle, and Frank killed thirty-seven people.

The Punisher (2017) / int_26ac510e	comment	Mythology Gag: At the end of the first episode, Micro sees Frank operating and says, "Welcome back, Frank." "Welcome Back, Frank" is the title of Garth Ennis' first Punisher story. In "The Dark Hearts of Men", Russo tricking Frank into thinking he accidentally killed innocent women is lifted from the MAX arc "Girls in White Dresses". In season 2, Frank tussles with a large Russian gangster who takes quite a beating before finally going down and who winds up with severe facial injuries, a possible reference to The Russian from the comics.

The Punisher (2017) / int_3322dd48	comment	Hollywood Law: In episode 5, Madani questions Karen Page about Frank's trial. Several issues are present: First off, Madaniâ€™s questioning about a former client of Nelson & Murdock is highly problematic, because Karen easily could have disclosed confidential information learned from her work on the Castle case. New York attorneys have a duty to protect the confidential information of former clients, and Karen worked as a legal assistant for Nelson & Murdock. The law recognizes those who work for attorneys as â€œprivileged agents"note United States v. Kovel, 296 F.2d 918, 921-22 (2d Cir. 1961), so Matt and Foggy's duty to protect confidential information would apply to Karen, as she was their agent. That said, back in Daredevil, Karen had questioned Frank during the trial about his past, which is generally accepted for a paralegal or legal assistant to do in a case. But Karen also gave Frank advice on what she thought Frank should do for his defense, which crosses the line into Karen giving legal advice, which is something only lawyers are allowed to do. What does this mean for Madaniâ€™s questioning of Karen? Well, three things: 1) Karen has a duty to not disclose confidential information about Frank Castle, unless that information specifically could be used to prevent a crime, death, or substantial bodily harm. 2) The legal advice that Karen gave to Frank is not protected, because Karen is not a lawyer and cannot give legal advice. And 3) Karen is also flirting with aiding and abetting Frank in committing crimes by providing him information after her employment at Nelson & Murdocknote For example, Frank tracks down and kills Carson Wolf using information that Karen provided him, something that is not protected by any privilege. In other words, Karen should not have agreed to sit down with Madani without bringing along Foggy to help her navigate what was confidential and what she could disclose. (Presumably the only reason Karen does not bring Foggy is because they haven't spoken to each other since losing Matt.) The CIA conduct unauthorized wiretaps to find information on the â€œPunisher tip line.â€� This information is then used to kidnap Sarah and Zach. Wiretapping anyone in the United States without a warrant is a violation of the 4th Amendment of the United States. Spy agencies kidnapping US citizens is also clearly illegal, as the CIA is not permitted to operate on American soil under any circumstances. Justified since these actions are comitted by corrupt members involved with the heroin trade. David, by faking his own death, technically is committing fraud, and if there were any pending federal charges against him, faking oneâ€™s own death would be a â€œsubstantial interference with the administration of justiceâ€� that would warrant a sentence enhancement. Though since Wolf was trying to kill him for doing his job of reporting illegal activity, David has a pretty solid legal defense if charges are ever pressed.

He had also managed to put an end to Testament, killing both the Schultzes while letting Pilgrim live to drop out and watch over his two children. However, Frank has shunned all chances of living a civilian life again as a result of becoming a full-time vigilante, even declining Dinah's offer to let him work for the C.I.A. He also had to cut ties with Amy to keep her safe, giving her the cash to move far away. Now with his family and brother figure dead, and all ties with all surviving allies severed, Frank is truly alone, and yet at peace with himself.

However, she is only in four out of 13 episodes, and her only contributions are to help bring Frank and David together, as well as later show up so Frank can save her when she gets targeted by Lewis. This is a somewhat justified case, given that Karen's home show is Daredevil (2015), she never even crossed paths with Frank in the comics, and Deborah Ann Woll's schedule was tight since she was also filming The Defenders (2017). She also wasn't a part of Steve Lightfoot's story plan at all to start, until he decided to find a place for her after being impressed with her acting alongside Bernthal in Daredevil.

It also says that after his assignment in Iraq, he was promoted to the rank of Chief Petty Officer. However, Chief Petty Officer is a Navy enlisted rank. The equivalent Marine Corps rank to a Chief Petty Officer is Gunnery Sergeant. Frank looks ludicrously old to be a Lieutenant, even if he was prior enlisted. Promoting him just to Captain would have been much less jarring. Similarly, Colonel Schoonover must have some extreme combat stress-related aging; otherwise, he's much too old for his rank, let alone going out and leading elite troops in the field.

He helps Leo with the garbage disposal and encourages her efforts, and later steps in at Sarah's request to help get Zach out of his bullying ways. This is likely due to him missing his own children.

We didn't even see any heavy machinery, no helicopters, fighter planes, tanks. Imagine what the writers could have written had they not needed to jump through hoops and been limited by the budget.

Lewis Wilson loses his chance to work for Anvil because Curtis sees all of the red flags for severe PTSD and warns Russo of it. Curtis's group runs the gammut, from decent guys with good lives holding things together reasonably well (Curtis) to people scraping by and having a hard time (most of the others in the support group, it seems) to ones who are just angry, unable to move on, and letting their mental health deteriorate to dangerous levels (Lewis), and outright frauds (O'Connor).

Karen's version of the events: Ori cried and begged for his life, then threw Karen to the assassin to save himself.

The Punisher (2017) / int_987be393	comment	Gambit Roulette: The reasons and circumstances of Castle's tragedy are ultimately revealed to be the result of a confluence of disparate gambits: Russo refused to kill Frank himself, forcing Schoonover to do the job â€” and he chose to arrange a meeting between numerous gangs during which Frank would be killed in the crossfire. Schoonover was unable to make the meeting because he was being investigated by the DA. DA Samantha Reyes had the crime families under surveillance, but decided not to follow procedure and evacuate the civilians. As a result, all of them died and Frank took a bullet to the head. Reyes sent the hospital a "Do Not Resuscitate" order, hoping Frank would die on the table.

The Punisher (2017) / int_9d12bbc1	comment	Foreshadowing: Someone mentions "putting the pieces together" to catch Billy Russo. You know, like a jigsaw puzzle. In the first episode, Curtis jokingly threatens to beat Frank to death with his prosthetic leg. Lewis later subdues Curtis with it before strapping him to a claymore mine. When Frank is commenting about Zach's KABAR knife, he says that the knife is much easier to use against a man with a gun at close quarters. This takes place minutes before Russo kills Sam in this exact way. When Curtis is telling Russo why he shouldn't hire Lewis to work at Anvil, he tells Russo about Lewis nearly shooting his father, to which Russo replies, "God, I've always wanted to do that." He then laughs awkwardly when Curtis gives him a cold look. We later learn that Russo's mom was a prostitute and Russo himself spent his childhood in group homes. In Kandahar, Billy Russo is reading The Picture of Dorian Gray, about another man whose beautiful face hides an evil core, who was also played by Ben Barnes in a live-action adaptation, and whose face becomes unrecognizable in the end.

The Punisher (2017) / int_9dab0a6e	comment	Continuity Nod: The show opens with a montage of Frank tracking down the last members of the various gangs that were at the Central Park shootout. Karen is one of people Dinah questions when she gets wind that Frank is in New York City, given she was the one he interacted with most throughout his trial and following his escape. During the questioning, Dinah also recites Karen's history, with Nelson & Murdock's taking down of Wilson Fisk and later her involvement in the first investigation of Frank. During their radio debate, Karen asks Senator Ori if heâ€™s ever felt afraid for his life or been in a situation where a gun can mean the difference between life and death, the exact situation she faced when she killed James Wesley. Dinah's file on Frank includes the ceremonial photograph of Frank receiving the Navy Cross award that Karen saw in his house in "Penny and Dime". Karen and Senator Ori have a debate about gun control on a WNEX radio show, the same station that hosts Trish Talk. If you look closely at Frank, you can pinpoint scars he received in Daredevil season 2, like the stab wound from his fight with Fisk and the other prisoners in the cell block, or the sewed up bullet wound he took to the right arm from a police sniper during his second fight with Matt. The operation where Major Schoonover lost his arm (which he testified about at Frank's trial) is shown in a flashback sequence here. But now there's more context to the situation: Schoonover and Agent Orange refused to listen to Frank's warnings that the mission was a set-up. Even Russo had backed up Frank during the discussion.

The Punisher (2017) / int_9f62dda7	comment	Comicbook Movies Dont Use Codenames: Frank never really calls himself the Punisher, but it's still a nickname the media and authorities give him. A Justified Trope, since even back in Daredevil season 2, the "Punisher" was simply the nickname given to him by the NYPD, barring the occasional times Frank has used it to deride the word. In fact, prior to episode 9, the name isn't used even once outside of a single usage by Sam. David Lieberman uses the name "Micro" as an online alias when delivering secrets. But outside of that intro episode, he's only ever referred to by his legal name. Billy Russo references a jigsaw as part of his therapy in season two, and one character refers to him as being "jigsaw-faced," but this never becomes his codename. There is a devoutly religious, Made of Iron Determinator hitman with a dying wife in the Max continuity simply called The Mennonite, who is never actually named, but an identical character in the series is called John Pilgrim.

His operation is getting, at best, millions of dollars from these drug transactions which risk putting him in jail, but getting that kind of appropriation legitimately should be child's play for him. At the end of Season 2, Castle is offered a job as an assassin, which would presumably come with protection by the government and a steady paycheck. He turns it down without a second thought because he prefers hunting criminals on his own and dealing with the consequences himself.

Frank and Russo look at the attack plans and realize that this is an ambush, as Frank thinks it's suspicious that an elusive target would wait out in the open in a place where the terrain makes egress difficult. Despite Russo taking Frank's side, Rawlins overrules the two Lieutenants, stating that his intelligence trumps the war whisperer's reservations. Sure enough, it is an ambush. Many of Frank and Russo's men are killed, and Schoonover loses his right arm to a mortar blast. When the survivors return to the compound after the mission, Frank expresses how angry he is at Rawlins for not caring about the men, by punching him in the face hard enough to knock the sight out of his left eye.

The Punisher (2017) / int_a3eea2ea	comment	Cop Killer: Frank's family was killed because Frank executed Madani's partner Ahmed Zubair on the orders of William Rawlins. Because he didn't speak Pashto/Dari, he had no idea that Zubair was an Afghan National Police officer who discovered that fellow members of Operation Cerberus were moving heroin inside the corpses of KIAs, and using the profits to finance assassination squads. Rawlins and Schoonover then ordered Frank be assassinated because they were led to believe Frank was the one who sent David the videotape of the Zubair assassination, as opposed to Gunner Henderson, the one who actually made the recording. Once Frank is drawn back in to hunting down the people who ordered the death of his family, his first victim is Carson Wolf, the Special Agent in Charge of the DHS's New York City field office. After torturing him to get information on David, Frank kills Wolf by breaking his neck. Billy Russo and several Private Military Contractors on his payroll ambush Dinah Madani and her SWAT team when Dinah feeds them false information leading them to a warehouse where they think Frank will be making a gun buy. Most of Dinah's SWAT team is killed, as are all of Russo's men. Russo himself stabs Sam to death with a retractable blade concealed under his right sleeve. Also, in the season 1 finale, Russo nonchalantly guns down DHS agents sent to arrest him at his pad.

They evidently donâ€™t know how to check corners, and the team enters a room, tosses a training grenade, and looks right at it when it blows. If it was meant to simulate a flash-bang, then they just practiced deafening and disorienting themselves, giving their opponents a great opportunity to shoot them. If it was standing in for a frag, then they learned how to commit suicide. Afterwards, they are only criticized for Sam accidentally shooting a hostage. At least they managed to not point their weapons at each other. A Kandahar flashback shows the Cerberus team conducting a night operation. . . without night-vision goggles.

The Punisher (2017) / int_beb9a361	comment	The end of Season 2 sees Madani leave Homeland in favour of the CIA, with it being implied that this was a better fit for her after turning more morally grey over the course of the series. Combined with the spoilered information above, this might be taken as the CIA being not necessarily villainous, but definitely at the shadier end of heroism.

Frank also reads The Crack Up by F. Scott Fitzgerald. The fact that it is 3:00 a.m. when he reads it references a line from the book. Billy Russo is seen reading The Picture of Dorian Gray, about another man whose beautiful face hides an evil core. Ben Barnes also portrayed Dorian Gray in the 2009 film adaptation. The chase scene between Madani and Frank after the arms deal has echoes to the memorable chase in Bullitt, right down to the main sounds during the chase being the engine noise of two extremely powerful muscle cars, and both are in Mustangs. It's even lampshaded when Rafi accuses Madani of "going all Steve McQueen." David calls Frank a "one man Wild Bunch" at one point.

Both Frank and Sarah admit she really shouldn't trust a man she barely knows, especially not when that man is, y'know, Frank Castle. Madani is bedridden for several days following Sam's death at Billy Russo's hands. In Season 2, Frank describes her as being just as "batshit and lost" as he is. Karen is in the midst of mourning Matt and can't stop thinking about losing him. She keeps a photo of her with Matt and Foggy placed on a tabletop by the TV, her new apartment looks very similar in appearance to Matt's loft apartment, and she implies during a conversation with Frank about not wanting to be alone that she hasn't even spoken to Foggy much (if at all) since Midland Circle.

The Punisher (2017) / int_de306ba6	comment	Worst Aid: David's attempts to keep Frank stabilized after he gets shot by a Friendly Fire arrow from Gunner. He tries pumping Frank with antibiotics and fluids, which won't do shit while the arrow is lodged in Frank and infested with bacteria. Except that fluids and antibiotics are exactly what David should have done as fluid resuscitation is helpful for both the hypovolemia from blood loss and fluid problems from infection, and the antibiotics would help Frank's immune system fight the infection, even with the arrow still in him, especially since David is not qualified to do surgery to remove the arrow on his own. Also from this scene: David quite rightly sanitizes his hands before treating Frank... and proceeds to rub them dry on his pants. Frank forces Amy to sew up the bullet wound just above his ass. She can barely sew to begin with, has no experience in first aid, and is extremely awkward about the placement of the wound.

The Punisher (2017) / int_e154ff08	comment	Jack Bauer Interrogation Technique: Subverted throughout the season. Frank has Carson Wolf tied to a chair and is beating him. Wolf says he has some training at Guantanamo, so he knows that intel from tortured prisoners isn't reliable, as they'll eventually start telling you whatever they think you want to hear. Hell, he even comments that Frank is answering his own damn questions while beating him. What Wolf doesn't realize is that the torture part is just a Failure Gambit on Frank's part, as he lets Wolf "disarm" him and then gloat while pointing what he thinks is a loaded gun at Frank. Frank never expected to get any info from the torture. After a team of Russo's men attacks him at David's lair, Frank takes out a gun and gives an ultimatum to one of the survivors of the firefight to give him info on where Sarah and Zach are being held. The PMC reveals he doesn't know anything, as it was obviously "need to know"; Frank doesn't bother any further, and just shoots the man in the head as he threatened. In episode 12, Rawlins' attempts to torture information out of Frank just allows Frank to send recordings of it to Dinah and David. Russo gets sickened eventually once he realizes Rawlins is just indulging in his own sadism to get petty revenge on Frank for taking his left eye from him, and eventually weakens Frank's bonds so that Frank can get his own back at Rawlins. Played straight in episode one, as Lance talks when Frank beat him with a sledgehammer. Justified, too, as Lance, unlike the other examples here, is not someone with the military training to resist torture.

While she's nearly catatonic, her reaction to him shows she's terrified. Russo himself is the only member of the conspiracy Frank spares, after brutally beating and disfiguring him to the point his begging to die. The reason is whenever he wakes up, Frank has a moment where he realizes his wife and children are dead, experiencing it every day. Russo will get a chance to think of that every time he sees a mirror now. Deconstructed in Season 2, where Frank learns that by sparing Russo to force him to live with his crimes, all he's done is leave him alive to cause even more trouble. Even more ironic, Frank's horrifying beatdown was so severe that Russo lost all memory of the event itself.

Frank doesn't try to pull the arrow out, instead snapping off the shaft close to the point of entry in order to have more freedom of movement, since him and his buddy are about to be attacked by a Spec Ops team. Later, when his medic buddy is treating him, the medic says trying to pull the arrow out would only cause more damage. Therefore, he has to make an incision in Frank's back and push the arrow all the way through. This treatment method is not necessarily true. In an operating room with a trained team of surgeons, the arrowhead would have been painstakingly extracted back through the existing wound with as little additional tissue damage as possible. Frank's buddy, however, didn't have the time or tools to do all of that.

The Punisher (2017) / int_fdc1e848	type	Will They or Won't They?
The Punisher (2017) / int_fdc1e848	comment	Will They or Won't They?: Season one's marketing campaign gets a lot of mileage out of Frank's connection with Karen but Frankâ€™s conversations with David and Curtis make clear that he still considers himself married to Maria. Likewise, Karen is still mourning Matt following his "death" in The Defenders. Season two continues with a heated and subtext-laden conversation between Frank and Karen in the hospital, where Karen urgently begs Frank to allow himself to love...someone. Frank, for his part, asks some pretty pointed questions about Matt Murdock. Again, the world holds its breath as the two close in...and again, the show avoids going through or committing to closing that door; they are interrupted by Amy and must immediately escape the hospital.

The Punisher (2017) / int_ff7f34c5	comment	Pet the Dog: After killing Isaac for his uniform, Lewis tries to free Isaac's pet birds rather than doom them to neglect. The birds ignore his helping hand, and stay in their cage. Frank is actually able to convince Lewis to tell him which wire to cut so he can save Curtis' and his own life.
