21 Times Matt Murdock Low-Key Knows What's Going On Despite His "Blindness"

    The world on fire can be pretty darn vivid.

    1. When legions of people stare at his "blind" gorgeousness on the street and he just smiles and keeps walking.

    2. Sometimes he likes to freak them out by turning around and winking straight at them, though. Gets him chuckling every time.

    3. Every single time he runs into an ex-girlfriend he has to see the look of relief on her face that he'll "never know" she was there. Whoops.

    4. Every time anyone tries to sneak a fart in front of him, he knows it's coming before the farter even feels it. There's no hiding it from him.

    5. Foggy got in the habit of peeing with the door open in college and now feels really, really weird about it.

    6. Matt had to come up with a hand signal to tell Foggy his fly was unzipped so people wouldn't freak out if he told him outright.

    7. When Matt Murdock was little, none of the kids at school wanted to hang out with him, and it hurt his feelings to see them try and sneak away from the lunch table wherever he sat down.

    8. Matt can hear that the law office has mice and keeps hinting to Karen that she needs to buy traps. She keeps forgetting because she doesn't believe him, and he has no way of proving it to her.

    9. Matt Murdock knows if you're not wearing underwear.

    10. One time in college Foggy made a girl hide under his bed so Matt wouldn't know he had anyone over, and Matt decided to have a little fun by talking loudly about Foggy's "chronic groin sweat condition" before going to sleep.

    11. Matt Murdock wasn't sure he liked Foggy until he "saw" him trying to learn how to read Braille in secret.

    12. When Matt Murdock met James Wesley, he noticed that Wesley's heart rate went up whenever he talked about Fisk. He's still not 100% sure what that means, but he keeps it in mind.

    13. Karen tries to prank Matt by bedazzling his office supplies, but for some reason he always knows to reach for the gray stapler instead of the pink glitzy one. He does use the pens with the puffy feathers on top though. Matt thinks those are neat.

    18. One time Matt wanted to sneak out for a date without his cane and Foggy saw him and freaked out. Matt had to pretend he lost the cane in a cab and Foggy insisted on walking him home. Matt never made it to that date.

    19. Matt Murdock knows who is actually praying in church and who just fell asleep during the catechism.

    20. When Matt Murdoch thinks you look beautiful, he can't tell you without letting you on on his secret. He says something nice about your perfume or cologne instead. He wishes you knew how he felt.
