Synopsis for "Blackout"
Loot walked into Frank's weapons cache wearing a tracking device while Electro started using his powers to cause a blackout. Frank entered Tuggs' house and found him tied to a chair before untying him. Tuggs told Frank that he didn't know who attacked him, moments before the power went out. In El Segundo, Sammy encountered two looters wearing gas masks who shot her vest before she shot one in the leg and beat him to death. Del Sol and two gunmen wearing gas masks entered the L.A.P.D. headquarters and gave the signal to send in their people and gave an order to attack the police and let him know when all of the canisters were placed.
While Dos Soles began killing police officers, the Howling Commandos were able to find the Punisher's position from the tracker they placed on Loot's ear. Sidewinder considered the blackout a distraction for the Punisher but not for them. Del Sol planned to bring the city to its knees by releasing the gas and have every cartel and gang follow him and his brother, giving them an army. A masked Punisher stood in the street, in the way of Del Sol's car before destroying it with a grenade. Then, Del Sol ordered all of his men to kill the Punisher. The vigilante opened fire on the drug lord's men and shot him in the leg when he attempted to escape with a case.
Domino dropped down from a helicopter and entered a building that was behind the Punisher, who was prepared to execute Del Sol before Electro intervened, zapping him and causing him to crash into a window. While Del Sol escaped, the Punisher revealed his face and told Electro that he was not afraid of death.
