Episode 3’s final scene is a gut-punching one that involves Hector Ayala/White Tiger
Hey, very few people survive a point-blank gunshot to the head.
It’s an awful moment for three big reasons.

Ayala’s death hits harder because it’s the final performance given by de los Reyes before he passed away in December 2023
Indeed, we saw that incident play out in theDisney+show’s second episode.
Or so it seemed.
Well, until Ayala’s death, anyway.

You see, a target is painted on Ayala’s back when Murdock reveals he’s the White Tiger.
Okay, maybe I’m doing Murdock a disservice by saying it’s his fault that Ayala is dead.
In my view, though, Murdock is partly to blame because he publicly revealed Ayala’s secret identity.
