The "End Game" for Elektra Natchios is one of predestined tragedy. As she and Matt face Nobu and the Hand on the rooftop, the episode explores the theme of choice versus nature. Matt offers her a future away from the violence—a different kind of "end game" where they run away together. Her death, however, serves a dual purpose: it isolates Matt further into his vigilante role and sets the stage for her rebirth as the Black Sky, proving that in Hell’s Kitchen, the "end" is often just a transition to a darker beginning.

The Season 2 finale of Daredevil , "," serves as a definitive "end game" for the dual lives of Matt Murdock.
