* After the [[spoiler: poisoning of Vanessa]], Fisk is nearly having a heart attack out of sheer nervousness and concern for Vanessa, to the point he completely neglects his affairs just to stay with her. In a similar manner, there's Wesley, Fisk's loyal companion, doing his best to assure him that whatever happened wasn't his fault and doing everything in his power to calm him down. One moment even has Fisk, after Wesley faithfully heeds his every command, struggling (as per his AmbiguousDisorder tendencies) with the words to tell Wesley his appreciation. After stuttering a bit, he gives out a genuine "Thank you", and Wesley grins and nods.

* In "Cut Man", Jack decides to go back on his deal to throw the fight against Crusher Creel because of Matt, especially after what the kid tells him: "We're Murdocks. We get hit a lot. But we get up. Right, Dad? We always get up." This leads Jack to have an epiphany and make two calls: one for his bookie, to bet everything on his victory and put the earnings on a savings fund for Matt; and another one for someone who apparently is his estranged wife, asking to look after Matt and essentially saying goodbye. He ''knows'' the repercussions of what he's about to do, but he ''still'' is determined to go through with it for the sake of his only son.
--> Hey, it's uh... It's me. I'm about to go do something... Well... I'm about to go be ''me''. You know better than anybody that doesn't always go so well. I don't know how this is gonna go, but if I were a betting man... Matty's gonna need you. More than ever. Look after him, okay? I-I know what I'm asking, but he's-he's a good kid. He sure as hell didn't get that from me. So... It's better this way. Just once... I want Matty to hear people cheer for his old man. Just once.
