    Summary

    Three weeks after Foggy wrote "Nelson, Murdock, and Page" on a new napkin, Matt, Karen, and Foggy are starting the new firm in the upstairs of Nelson's Meats. That means Matt can't put off moving back into his apartment any longer—an apartment that he may or may not have told Karen and Foggy he moved back into weeks ago.

    It turns out, trying to sort out your affairs and come back to your old life after having a building fall on top of you, spending months recovering in a church basement, and being homeless isn't that easy. It's a little harder still when you're mentally unwell, sleep deprived, and blind.

    Also... maybe Matt should have taken the whole hallucination thing more seriously.

    Summary

    The thing about Matt is he’s either going to be Catholic and impossible about utterly everything, or absolutely nothing, which makes it very difficult to predict which way he’s gonna go.

    “Everything comes back to guilt with him,” he tells Karen on a night out while Matt is running on rooftops wearing the superhero equivalent of a gimp suit. “He’s probably guilty about how he ties his shoelaces. Or the type of syrup he puts on his pancakes.”

    “I mean, maple, right?”

    “Matt likes blueberry.”

    Karen clicks her tongue. “Shameful.”

    “It's not that bad.”

    “He should feel guilty for that.”

    “Point is,” Foggy says so he doesn't fall into the trap of defending Matt’s syrup choices. “I think I have to learn how to beat people up.”
