The Punisher Season 2 Episode 9

Frank returns to the trailer on The Punisher season 2 episode 9. He tells the group that he thought that he had changed after his family was killed, that he had become something vicious. After spending the night at the graves of his wife and kids, he realized that he has always been what he is now. He doesn’t have any answers for them. All he asks is that they let him be what he was born to be… let him finish the jobs.

“I Have to Know Why Frank Wants Me Dead”

The Punisher Season 2 Episode 9

Billy and his crew have grown in size. The whole outfit wears customized masks now. Their hideout is full of weapons, alcohol, drugs, and women. They think they’re really living, but it’s not enough for Billy. Even the pain-fueled sex with Dumont isn’t enough. Dumont suggests that she and Billy start thinking about what comes after, about taking the money and disappearing someplace where they can be whoever and whatever they want to be. Billy says that sounds fine, but he’s not going anywhere until he knows why Frank wants him dead.

Misplaced Faith

The Punisher Season 2 Episode 9

Schultz meets with Pilgrim. Schultz does not like that Pilgrim still hasn’t finished his job yet. Instead of giving Pilgrim more time to do this quietly, Schultz tells Pilgrim to place a $5 million bounty on Frank and Amy. Schultz later meets with his son, David, and tells him to get out of the city for a couple of weeks.

Pilgrim places the bounty in an old bar he used to frequent. He wants either Frank and Amy captured alive or information on where he can find them. The bartender makes a phone call, both to put out the word about the bounty and to let the bar’s owner know that Pilgrim is in town. Later, Pilgrim is called back to the bar, but instead of information on Frank and Amy, he’s confronted with his old boss, who wants the money Pilgrim disappeared with 12 years ago. Pilgrim says that man doesn’t exist anymore, that he was lost but was rescued and put on the righteous path. The former boss tells Pilgrim that it’s time to pay for all of his sins.

Amy tries to get out of the building, but guys come in to collect her and the reward money. Frank arrives and kills most of them, but one has Amy trapped. While the guy’s distracted, Amy uses the move Frank taught her to disarm and shoot him. Frank promises her that he’s going to kill Billy then take care of the guys after them.
