10 Greatest Punisher Moments From Daredevil: Season 2

10. Carousel

The first of these entries is all to do with the acting ability of Benthal (well, technically, they all are) but it's in this scene that you see how much pain Frank has gone through. 

Without uttering a word, he sits before the carousel where he was last afforded time as a husband and a father. In a trance, he watches all the normal people and their children, enjoying themselves, unaware that they're just one bad day away from becoming as empty as he is. That emptiness is splayed across Bernthal's face. 

It's heartbreaking.

When the carousel eventually stops and the lights turn off, it's symbolic resonance that Frank's previous life went only so far and that was it. He'll never go back to being the man he once was because other, more evil men stole it from him.

All of this was a ruse to allow himself to be captured by the remnants of the Irish mob (hence why he wasn't armed) in order to gain the information that he needed but it's a quiet, somber scene that reminds you how scarily easy it can be to become a man like Frank.

Who has more to lose, the man who has everything or the man who has nothing?
