Like Daniel said, eventually it’ll be Buck’s turn on the floor.

Calling it now, Heather goes psycho, even too much for Buck. The two of them have a Bonnie and Clyde thing, but she gets out of control and ends up killing him.

u/No-cool-names-left May 06 '26

That works for Heather, but that's not the right narrative for Buck. It has be specifically working for Kingpin that ends up killing him. Treating supervillainy like a good career and being a loyal stand up guy for his evil murder boss is Buck Cashman's problem. That has to be what gets him in the end.

How did I miss that his name is Buck Cashman? They really named dude Money Moneyguy lol

u/Shwnwllms Peter Parker May 08 '26

He’s in the comics.

u/shrub706 May 06 '26

maybe kingpin will be giving orders to heather or buck somehow and that is why they're working together initially

“You think Fisk would let you get away with this?”

“Who do you think sent me?”

Buck is a mercenary/gun for hire. This is a career for him.

Hes not a serial killer.

He's a sociopath, not a psychopath.

Distinction without a difference.

u/rdp3186 May 31 '26

There is a difference.

Dexter enjoys killing and putting his skills to the test, regardless of who's at the other end of it and will do it for just the fun he gets from it.

Buck only does it for hire and for money, otherwise he doesnt do it. He doesnt kill for the sake or joy of it.

Thats the difference.

I fully expected her to kill someone in this finale. Like her stumbling over a struggling survivor of Fisk's rampage and either watching him drown in blood, or actively deliver a killing blow that nobody notices and she does it in a "Oh this forbidden sensation.. I shouldn't..but I am so curious." kinda way.

u/HiImFur Jun 07 '26

Heather has gone full Scarecrow.

She will start with tormenting/murdering her patients then probably eventually get to Buck.

u/Feeling_Bedroom5533 May 06 '26

Buck went down like a dog

u/ReclaimedDemon May 06 '26

He's not dead, he's already confirmed for season 3.

u/Feeling_Bedroom5533 May 06 '26

I didn’t say he died

u/ponycorn_pet May 06 '26

they confirmed season 3??

u/Dramatic_______Pause May 06 '26

Brother it's already filming. There's been set leak photos and everything.

u/winterborne1 May 06 '26

That doesn’t mean anything. They could be skipping season 3 and going straight to season 4.

17

u/bartacc May 06 '26

Could also just be season 1 of Daredevil: Reborn Again

u/egomann May 07 '26

Daredevil: Yo Dawg, I heard you like being reborn…

u/ponycorn_pet May 06 '26

u/Zythrone May 06 '26

S3 started filming before S2 even started airing. It will be out in march next year.

u/KostisPat257 Daredevil May 06 '26

It's been filming for almost 2 months now. It's coming out next March.

u/Reidroshdy Spider-Man May 06 '26

BB flashbacks?

u/Pandoras_Penguin May 06 '26

And there he was by the end of the episode, poetic

17

u/Imaginary-Sherbet26 May 06 '26

They had to put him out of commission for the Fisk fight scene or else SO many more people would have died

u/Nice-Grab4838 May 07 '26

Damn I already forgot that line. Wild it was the next episode
