John Healy murders a man at a bowling alley and waits for the police to arrest him. James Wesley then approaches Nelson and Murdock with an offer to pay for his defence. Foggy welcomes a paying client, but Wesley's knowledge of Karen's case and his refusal to identify his employer trouble Matt. Matt agrees to represent Healy while investigating the organisation that is protecting him, using the case to reach beyond the man in custody.
During the trial, Matt notices a juror's fear when Wesley enters the courtroom. That night, he discovers the woman is being blackmailed and forces her intimidator to arrange her removal from the jury. It does not solve the problem: another juror is under pressure too. Matt delivers his closing argument about judging the evidence, but the trial ends with a divided jury and Healy walks free.
Karen faces an offer of money in exchange for silence about Union Allied. Daniel Fisher's widow has already accepted a settlement and urges her to move on, but Karen instead approaches reporter Ben Urich. Matt confronts Healy after the trial and demands his employer's name. Healy identifies Wilson Fisk, then kills himself rather than face punishment for talking. Fisk, meanwhile, visits an art gallery and tells its curator that a white painting makes him feel alone.
