What can you expect from Episodes 1 and 2?

The official synopsis of Episode 1 reads as follows:

Longtime rivals Matt Murdock and Wilson Fisk attempt to move past their darker personas to serve New York, but their pasts resurface, reintroducing the world of Daredevil.

The synopsis for Episode 2 states:

Matt Murdock gets a new client who's more than he claims to be. Fisk learns the power of optics.

Matt's Daredevil persona will be forced out of the shadows after a harrowing event, where he will fight against Wilson Fisk again.

In an interview with Screen Rant, Cox explains their rivalry with each other and how audiences will be submerged in it in the premiere:

"I think that they both hold power over one another, and that power, on both sides, is undeniable. One of the things that Wilson has over Matt is he knows his identity and he can put [out] his life in a whole new way."
