Season One

 * 1) "Pilot": Matt Murdock sets up a Law Firm with his best friend and college roommate Foggy Nelson. However, what Foggy doesn't know is that Murdock is working on a secret project, which turns out to be a hero suit that he uses to defend his home town of Hell's Kitchen. On his first night, Matt has a run in with the assassin group known as the Enforcers who where hired to kill a woman named Karen Page for unknown reasons. Murdock manages to fight off the Enforcers, who run off with their tail tucked between their legs. Realizing whoever Karen made angry will most likely send more people after her, Matt shows up to her door and offers her a job as his and Foggy's secretary. She accepts, much to Matt's delight as this means he can keep an eye on her. In a flashback, Matt reveals his origin story.
 * 2) "The Gladiator of Hell's Kitchen": A mysterious man finds out about the vigilante who took down the Enforcers. It's revealed the Enforcers where his men and he hires an assassin named Melvin Potter, AKA Gladiator, to kill the vigilante. Meanwhile, Matt visits Karen as the vigilante and finds out she used to work for a news company and she was hot on the trail on the identity of New York's Kingpin of Crime, but suddenly she was fired and then the Enforcers showed up. This makes Matt connect with Karen more as his father was killed by the Kingpin when he was young. Their conversation ends with Karen suggesting the vigilante put a little more red in his costume. During Matt's later encounter with Gladiator, Melvin is able to see Matt clearly due to the yellow in Matt's costume. This almost costs him his life as he can't blend with the shadows, but Matt manages to come out on top, killing Melvin by knocking him out a window. After this battle, Matt takes Karen's suggestion and decides to make his costume completely red.
