You know that would make this story better - Danny's money remains up in the air but he needs to prove his ID just to not get deported

If I were to rewrite the version of the story I'd extend Danny's time spent homeless and make it a big part of his character

Have Danny be established as having lived as a homeless do-gooder with no ID and no money for quite some time

And he's still clinging to the moral code of K'un-Lun despite it all because it's his way of asserting that no, he isn't crazy

Think about if someone like Matt or Jessica actually KNOWS Danny as "that crazy homeless guy from the park"

Note: none of this directly has to do with whitewashing but you'll note the stakes get a lot higher if Danny is visibly "foreign"

Imagine a critical scene with the cops dragging away an Asian guy with a stilted accent who insists that in his youth he lived on Park Ave
