This episode we meet Stick (Scott Glenn) in flashback–he’s the man who taught Matt Murdock/Daredevil his formidable fighting skills–and in the modern day.  He’s in New York to attempt to enlist Matt’s aid in stopping Nobu (Peter Shinkoda), the right hand of Madame Gao (Wai Ching Ho) from bringing a mysterious shipment, known only as Black Sky, into the city.

While Karen Page (Deborah Ann Woll) and Ben Urich (Vondie Curtis-Hall) work together to connect various shell companies and the violence that’s wracking the city to one mysterious source.
