Synopsis for "Bring Out Your Dead"
After the shootout with Ma Gnucci's men, Frank lay on the ground, bleeding, but got up and walked to the apartment complex. Later, Detective Martin Soap and Lieutenant Molly von Richthofen went to the site of the shootout to find out what happened to the Punisher. At the hospital, Ma Gnucci's men told her about the shootout, and were then ordered to keep looking for the Punisher. When Frank reached his apartment, he fell on the floor and collapsed. Soap and Richthofen went to a church to ask Father Hector Redondo about four murder victims, all of whom attended his church. Father Redondo told the detective and the lieutenant that he regularly took the confessions of the victims, than showed the two officers out. Walking into "Mr. Smith's" apartment to look for him, Joan saw blood stains and a wall of weapons. The Elite bought a hot dog from a vendor on the street, before telling him that he didn't want him there and dropping a grenade in his cart. When Joan called Spacker Dave to help out with "Mr. Smith", Dave realized he was the Punisher. The two picked him up and rested him on his bed, whereupon he woke up. On the news, Robert Leonard, the Chairman of the Wall Street Investors Association, was shot in the head by Mr. Payback while giving an interview. Then, Mr. Payback addressed the viewers by giving a speech, calling for attacks on corporatism. Two Gnucci hitmen watched the news, wondering if Ma Gnucci was going to hire the Russian to kill the Punisher. Posing as police officers, they entered the apartment complex to find the Punisher. A nervous Spacker Dave inadvertently divulged that the Punisher was there.
