Punisher 210 Review
Frank (Jon Bernthal) and Curtis (Jason R. Moore) go on a stakeout

Punisher 210 Review Spoiler filled Synopsis

Episode Written by: Steve Lightfoot and Angela LaManna

Episode Directed by: Alex Garcia Lopez

A vicious fight with his former neo-Nazi gang members leaves John Pilgrim (Josh Stewart) with multiple injuries; he’s not just bruised, battered and broken but is dislocated, slashed and has teeth in his forehead! The brutal encounter pushes him back into old habits. As he falls back into drugs, prostitutes and alcohol during his recovery he begins to doubt his divine purpose.

Elsewhere, as Dinah Madani (Amber Rose Revah) and Dr Krista Dumont (Floriana Lima) debate the merits of who’s worth saving over wine, wine and more wine, Frank Castle (Jon Bernthal) along with Curtis Hoyle (Jason R. Moore) stake out and prepare to storm Billy Russo’s base – Valhalla. Little do they know that in turn they are being watched.

Frank and Curtis enact their plan against Billy Russo (Ben Barnes) and blood ensues. In the gun fight as Frank hunts down Russo, he blindly fires on an office in Valhalla killing three innocent woman and Curtis is traumatised by killing one of the former Veterans. As the police arrive, Frank is rocked by guilt and we discover the work of Dr Dumont behind the events that played out. To destroy Frank Castle: destroy his sense of moral superiority!
