Daredevil Page #5

That place is gonna be

crawling with rich people.

People who pay legal fees

with money, not with fish.

Or with wheels of cheese.

Or with sports supplies.

I'm gonna fill you in on a secret.

This place doesn't look like a law office.

It looks like the set of Sanford and Son.

I'm waiting for Lamont to walk in.

- Then you go.

- Look at me, Matt. I'm a plus-one.

Plus-ones don't get anywhere alone.

They need somebody to bring them.

Are you finished? We only

have an hour to prepare for court.

What's eating you?

Rough night.

Well, you want to talk about it?

No.

- It's about Elektra, isn't it?

- No.

Natchios owns The Grand Hotel, and

Elektra's the reason you were invited.

She's out of my league,

and I'd rather end it before it starts.

That's gotta be some record. You just

completely bypass the relationship...

...you went right into the breakup.

Trying to save some time?

What happens to that lie detector

of yours when it detects your own bull?

Let's really bury the needle, huh?

Swish.

Look, Matt, seriously,

the ball's in your court.

So does this mean you want a rematch?

I knew I'd find you.

How did you know I wasn't a mugger?

Muggers don't usually wear

rose oil or high heels.

At least this far from Chelsea.

Come here.

There's something I wanna show you.

Wait a second.

Exactly how many women

have you brought up here, anyway?

You're my first.

- Good answer.

- I thought that was the right answer.

Look at this.

It's so beautiful.

I know. This was my favorite view

of the city when I was a kid.

I really wanted you to see this.

What's this?

That's from my mother.

- For good luck.

- It's beautiful.

It's a good-luck charm, huh?

I could use one of those.

Do they make them in Braille?

She gave it to me right before she died.

What happened?

- I should go.

- No. Just wait.

- No, I'm gonna go...

- Wait, wait, wait. It's about to rain.

- No, it's not.

- It is. I'm telling you, it's...

The temperature dropped two or

three degrees. I can smell the moisture.

And when it rains, it's like

there's a rooftop on the world.

Each raindrop makes a sound

the first time it falls on a surface.

Just then, it's like I...

It's like I can see again.

And I just wanna...

I just wanna see you.

Okay.

Look, here it comes.

My God.

You are so beautiful.

Hey, I'm gonna cut you up, man.

- Think Kingpin didn't want his money?

- What?

- That's my car! That's my car!

- Matt, what's wrong?

- Police!

- Shut up!

- Matt?

- I'm sorry.

- I have to go.

- Hey, come back here.

Stay.

Stay with me.

This is what I'm talking about.

Aren't you happy you listened to me?

This is gonna be great for business.

Thank you.
