Daredevil Season 3: 18 WTF Moments

13. Karen Vs. The Punk Kids (Episode 4, "Blindsided")

Karen Page (Deborah Ann Woll) got the strongest material of her Daredevil tenure this season, contuining her transformation from a victim to a strong, confident aggressor as she demonstrated more courage than ever.

An early scene indicating this change occurs when her path ends up blocked by a gang of obnoxious, sexist douchebags, prompting her to pull a gun and tell them to step aside.

All but one of the gangsters immediately flees, but once Karen gives the remaining goon a "friendly reminder" that she could blow his head off, he runs away with his tail between his legs.

Woll's nuanced performance ensures that Karen isn't merely envisioned as a gun-totting bada** out of nowhere, and you can feel the deep trauma that has brought her to this point. Bravo.
