But Bernthal almost didn't appear at all.Speaking to Entertainment Weekly about the episode, the actor recalled being unimpressed by the original plan for Punisher's return."Ultimately, I didn't see it.

What's more, as Bernthal puts it, Matt is fully aware of this distinction between them, and is bothered by it, while Frank has no issues with letting his instincts run things. And by "run things," I of course mean "shoot everyone's kneecaps and split someone's elbows in half." Frank doesn's fuck around with bendable joints.
