Frank Castle: What the hell is this?
Wilson Fisk: I'm in control now. And I've set you free.
Frank Castle: What does that mean, "free"?
[stands up, panting]
Frank Castle: I'll show you.
Wilson Fisk: 'Cause everyone warned me that prison would be an inhumane environment. It is. But I... I find it refreshing. The perfect microcosm of the animal world. When an animal wants something, when it needs something, other things... need to be stepped on.
Frank Castle: You want me on the outside so I can step on every piece of shit I see. That way, nobody gets strong, and we... the city's yours for the taking.
Wilson Fisk: Something like that. Yeah.
Frank Castle: So if you can do that, if you can get me out, why not just do it yourself?
Wilson Fisk: Because I play the long game, Mr. Castle. You see, when I'm finally let out of this cage, it won't be to wage war. It will be to win one.
