Moon Knight Episode 3 takes us to Egypt, where Marc Spector / Steven is hunting for Ammit’s tomb with Layla. As we dive into the Marvel Cinematic Universe’s Egyptian lore, we see how it connects to Kang, Black Panther, the X-Men, and-of all people-Baron Zemo. The show also references locations from the Falcon and the Winter Soldier, nodding to future MCU team ups between these heroes. We give a full breakdown of the episode, explain the Ennead, and what happened to Ammit and Khonshu all those thousands of years ago.

The episode begins with Layla getting her new fake passport, which helps us get to know the character, and deepens the mystery surrounding Marc’s DID.
We’ve covered this in past videos, but in the comics steam grant is an alternate personality of Marc Spector, who suffers from dissociative identity disorder, DUD for short or more commonly called multiple personality disorder.
She says "new apartment 20 minutes from old place". In this video last week, we guessed that Marc created the Stephen identity because-subconsciously-he needed someone who was an expert in Egyptology. And we pointed out that he transferred his love of Layla to Stephen-they even have the same favorite poem.
Now we see that Steven has also chosen an apartment close to where Marc lived. People who suffer with DID have the ability to transfer skills or even feelings to their identities without them being aware of each other. I think that’s what we’re seeing here.
Marc lived with Layla in London, it's the place that reminds him the most of her. So the apet of himself that still loves her-Steven-turns out to be English.
The candy that she’s eating looks a lot like Turkish delight…something tells me she would get on well with Zemo.
A neat detail that I noticed in this office: the photo lights were teased in the credits, here. I think it’s significant that Layla is beginning the episode by forging a new identity for herself, just as Marc’s DID created new personalities for him.
Turns out Layla likes to reacquire artifacts, like a modern day Indiana Jones, she says "already stolen". Which calls to mind Killmonger’s brilliant opening form black panther.
The Passport woman mentions Layla’s dad. Now she seems to be based on another character, Marlene, from the comics-who is Marc Spector’s girlfriend. Her father was an archaeologist who was executed by a mercenary leader named Raul Bushman-and one of the mercenaries working for him was Marc Spector. Last episode teased that Marc was responsible for an archaeologists' death. And I’ll bet you this is the secret harrow talks about later in the episode [you don't want to tell her].
The woman references her father saying [think of his little scarab]. Which is interesting. I’m wondering if there’s a secret origin here, where Layla’s dad actually discovered the scarab, and Konshu ordered Marc to kill her father, to obtain the scarab for him. Just a thought.
This is a fake passport., so it’s likely that the date is fake too. Things were probably very confusing during the blip, so it's easier to say a fake was issued during that time.
The first shot after the Marvel logo is of real sand, unlike the fake out shit at the start of episode 2. Earlier I mentioned that layla is like Indiana Jones-and there are actually a lot of similarities to this story and raiders of the lost ark.
We have the adventurer who leaves 2 lives, whose romantic interest is a woman from his past, and the adventurer knew her father. This man had an artifact that led to a secret burial place, and the villains get ahold of the artifact and get to the area first. Except in raiders, the heroes get to the real dig site before the villains. [clip, they’re digging in the wrong place]
Except, in raiders the villains were Nazis, and here they seem like exteremely nice people.
Cut to Marc chasing down some of Ammit’s followers on a rooftop chase. Instead Of hitting this kid, he slaps him [clip]. This shows us that Marc has a soft spot for the kid, and later it’ll store even more when he kills himself. Again, Indian Jones.
Marc hesitates when he sees Steven's reflection in the blade [clip]. Marc’s big problem in this episode is that he keeps fighting near reflective services.

I have always wondered how Thor and the Norse gods being real affected how people saw mythology in the MCU.
343RD COMMENT I'M EARLY ASFLIP AGAIN 👊❤️. MOON KNIGHT IS BEST MCU SHOW OUTSIDE OF DAREDEVIL 👊. Jake Lockley is the taxi driver that's DOPE. Konshu's a Jaded elder god but not a villain especially since he cares about human life and Justice just on a different realm of perspective then we do. I wonder if Steven would be a repressed personality that Marc has made to cope with losing Layla that's why Steven has so many similarities with her interest and knowledge. I really enjoyed this 3rd episode of Moon Knight it was great seeing the dynamic between Steve and Marc as personalities but they both can agree to disagree while Steve is still horrified by Marc's violent actions in seeing that Justice is done. Steve clearly sees through the Amitt Egyptian cult BS 💯 😂. The first, second and third episodes of Moon Knight were great as I expected and I can't wait until DR STRANGE MULTIVERSE OF MADNESS AND THOR LOVE AND THUNDER IS GOING TO BE EPIC ⛈️⚡ 😎. I've always wanted to see a horror mental illness martial arts movie or show about how Konshu turns Marc Spector into BADASS MOON KNIGHT I knew this would be DOPE 😎👊. It's cool to see Oscar Isaac getting a second chance to shine in a Disney film because he was wasted in The Sequel Trilogy of Star Wars but he pulls off the British accent so well I can't distinguish it from his real voice and he really KILLED IT WITH THAT MULTIPLE PERSONALITY THING. Seeing Dr Strange teaching Wanda to control her Scarlet Witch magical abilities and facing cosmic Multiversal level threats is awesome 😎. This has nothing to do with the video but please listen if you want to otherwise leave it alone and ignore it. Hello my name is Justin and I'm a Christian and Apologist but I'm also a college student. I'm not a closed minded Theist as I have nothing against Atheists or unbelievers as I speak to them often to understand their reasons for unbelief but we as Christians are convinced of God's Existence due to many real factors). I'm not trying to convert anyone or convince anyone to become Christians as that's The Holy Spirit's job to help people believe but only explain why I believe in Jesus Christ. There's actually evidence of God's Existence in Christianity. First of all there's proof that Jesus of Nazareth existed in history since the writings of Tacitus, Josephus Flavius, Pliny the younger and other historical documents prove that He was living two thousand years ago that even scholars both religious and Atheists agree with historically speaking but not that He's The Divine Son of God because obviously they don't.
I'm going to give you historical and archeological evidence for God's Existence as The Scriptures have prophecies that predate the events recorded in them by several millennia including Matthew, Hosea and Zechariah which prophesy accurately of the people of Israel becoming a nation again after over 1900 years of being scattered around the nations since the destruction of the Temple in Jerusalem in 70 A.D. spoken of by Christ in Matthew 23:29-24:3 and returning to their homeland after The Holocaust with Jerusalem as their capital in 1948 exactly as Jesus The Christ said. The prophets including Daniel spoke of the time where several world empires would arise and fall including the Babylonian kingdom, Medes and Persians, Roman Empire, and Saladin and the Muslims which went in consecutive order for the past few millennia. The people of Israel becoming a nation after The Holocaust in 1948 (ironically the melting point of gold as God compares Israel to gold that's tested in fire in Zechariah 13:8 and Jeremiah 16:15) exactly how Jesus The Christ said would happen since God us everything to come in The Scriptures and not just because people were working towards as Atheists claim which are impossible for any regular man to predict.
Just before anyone says Christianity is a white man's religion made to oppress blacks during slavery you obviously aren't aware that the first Christians were Jews in The Middle East and that Christianity just like any religion can be used by evil and corrupt people to oppress others but you forget that the first Abolitionists/Civil Rights activists were Christians who sought to abolish slavery, racism, segregation, injustice and prejudice throughout American history. Jesus The Christ loves you enough not to give you what we all deserve which is God's Wrath by His Own Blood. Charles Darwin didn't originally come up with The Theory of Evolution over 200 years ago as it is mentioned in the writings of Ancient Greeks who believed in Demons that gave knowledge to philosophers.
Evolution makes no sense when nothing has evolved after thousands of years of human history and supposedly the first creature came from primordial sludge several millions of years
ago funny how they won't believe that God an Eternal Almighty Spirit Being created us from the Earth) which came from a supermassive expansion of matter at high temperature that inexplicably created everything in the known universe that supposedly came from nothing billions of years ago. How did the organs evolve before there were bones, skin, substance and how did any creatures see before eyes evolved? I've studied evolution and abiogenesis in the past and read Darwin's " Origin of The Species" I've studied evolution and abiogenesis in the past and read Darwin's " Origin of The Species" and I'm not convinced of but not macro or micro Evolution because there's no evidence of it nor clear observable examples of it where living creatures evolve into other kinds of species plus the fact that fossils don't show evidence of evolution and genetic entropy rules out evolution. The question begs how did two genders evolve from a common ancestor with a perfectly hospitable and sustainable environment with breathable oxygen and resources to survive on inexplicably? Atheists have the burden of proof to explain how everything came to be and why our existence is possible without the Existence of God from an godless perspective just as Christians have to provide evidence of God's Existence and the validity of His Word.
Evolution requires life to already exist in order to take any effect in living organisms so it doesn't account for the existence of Life and reality. Also evolution is impossible because it goes against The Law of entropy and the second Law of thermodynamics because evolution makes things better whereas nothing continues to get better but decays and turns to absolute destruction in the end. Mark Ridley an Evolutionist said "No evolutionist whether gradualist or punctuationist uses the fossil record as evidence in favor of The Theory of Darwinian Evolution as opposed to special Creation". God's Existence is made perfectly known and observable in the universe as demonstrated in His Handiwork in the intelligently designed manner that Creation was made, human consciences and consciousness historical and archaeological evidence of God's Word being valid history, fulfillment of Bible Prophecies God in His Holiness and Righteousness could give us what we deserve in Hell for our since but He's merciful to give us free will to choose to accept or reject His gift of salvation by grace through faith in His Son Jesus. I don't mean this is any condescending manner but if you'd like to discuss The Scriptures with me or have me listen to your view on anything my instagram account is Savage Christian Kombatant.
The scene where we actually see Oscar transition from Mark to Steven is an absolute master class In acting. Not to mention him channeling Konshu to the other gods. Give my man his Emmy!!!
him shaking and shit, and a voice over yelling from his body was cringe asf lol
@@whatcomesafter9389 sounds like a you problem
@@whatcomesafter9389 only you mate
if you don’t like the show or the acting, you can happily not watch anymore.
since you know, it’s too cringe for you
Yea when he changed from Marc to Steven it actually felt like this was someone else just from the facial expressions
Hats off to Oscar Isaac
I know right
I liked that Khonshu eventually comes to need Steven's skills. He's not the loser his former co-workers pegged him as.
reluctantly, after he interfered so much
@@johnsechrist1602 and a good thing at that!
My only complaint is that there is open source software call “stellarium” that can tell you what the stars look like at any time in the future or the past. Install that on her tablet and done! Also you need more exact GPS then 29 degrees. You need at least 4 or 5 decimal points, since one degree of latitude is 69 miles (nice).
i had a stroke reading this
@@AstroStrongBox Imagine how hilariously mundane it would be if they went this route.
"I CAN TURN THE NIGHT SKY BACK-"
"Oh, that won't be necessary, mate. Got Stellarium, see?"
"Oh. I almost got myself imprisoned in stone. Could you imagine?"
Cute little detail in the credits: three sets of footprints in the sand that all merge together into one set of tracks. Another clue about the third personality? :)
There is also 3 separate Moon Knight identities shown, Mr Knight, Moon Knight and one other.
@@djanks13 what's the other
@@prodmxllo jake lockey

@@netflixandchilwell. 🗿
In the last scene , during Harrow’s monologue you can hear the glass in his sandal as he talks about his pain and sin
Even when he came walking into the Great Pyramid to meet with the other avatars. The attention to the small details... LOVE IT!! 😍
That was not a small enough detail to be considered an easter egg.
Honestly, that was the ONE detail I figured Ryan would mention lol...solid easter egg recap as always though
I actually laughed out loud when Steven gets impaled and just lets Marc go deal with it. The humor moments are surprising here but remind you this is an MCU project. It’s really a different tone than anything else.
So Jake, if exists, is a more brutal personality comparing to Marc, who was already a mercenary.
My guess is while Steven is the personality that Marc created as he desires peace from his usual work, Jake is the personality that Marc created to shoulder the guilt of killing people.
Marc seemed surprised though of what happened and thought it was Steven maybe Jake was make by accident and sort of balances the personality that he made when he made Steven
It annoys the hell out of me they changed the archetypes from the comics... Marc Spector was the amoral mercenary who had no problems with killing, Steven Grant was a suave billionaire that funded their escapades, Jake Lochley is a seedy low level criminal type character, that is plugged into the criminal underworld and used to gather intel, Mr. Knight is used by Steven (like in the show) BUT, the big difference, is the point of Mr. Knight, is to allow Steven to remain in some degree of control, AND also allow him to communicate with his personalities and utilize all of their skills/knowledge as one persona.
@@usuallydopesvsc I know how dare they change the comics!! The nerve.
@@usuallydopesvsc
Meh. I love the comics, but Moon Knight has been so many different things in different hands, I'm enjoying their deviations. They're creating an internally consistent world, and they're doing it well. I'm here for it. Don't hold on so tight; you'll have more fun. These characters are mythic and historically, mythic characters are portrayed radically differently from year to year.
@@usuallydopesvsc Even Moon knight himself is a different persona in the comics and it wouldn't make sense if only Mr. Knight was given his own persona in the TV show. Steven is shown to be intelligent so its kinda redundant to have a fourth persona. Its already enough on screen with marc, steven and jake. I thinks its a great call to condense their unique traits otherwise it can get overwhelming.
I absolutely loved the detail that when Marc switched to Steven to put the map together, it wasn’t the eyes roll back cut to time later. Showing when they work together it’s not as jarring for them. Oscar Issac is 10/10
Agreed💚🇬🇧🌱
One possible Easter egg:
When the guy licked the knife to try to intimidate Marc, Marc punched him in the face before the guy could end his theatrics.
It reminded me of Indiana Jones shooting the swordsman in Raiders while he was using his sword for theatrics trying to intimidate Indy.
My thought exactly. Funnily enough apparently Harrison Ford improvised this because he couldn't be bothered with an elaborate fight sequence due to his diarrhea xd
I was thinking more along the lines of it foreshadowing the theatrics of khonshu- where khonshu was then trapped in the stone not allowing him to further his revelations on ammit
@@jacekswobodzinski6774 oh thats hilarious xD
@@jacekswobodzinski6774 it wasn't really improvised, more like Ford saying to Spielberg "what if I just shoot him?" a few minutes before they started filming the scene, since half the crew had food poisoning. Not improvised on set, but yea it definitely wasn't in the script haha
@@merijn4440 well yeah, otherwise the other performers and crew wouldn't know what's going on and the scene would not play out
I can't get enough of this show. I knew nothing of this character. And this show is making me a fan.
I really enjoyed this episode, the cinematography was insane, the scene in the desert where we see Konshu's shadow rising behind Steven was sublime. I also loved the way they tease Jake Lockley but haven't revealed him yet, this is the best disney+ marvel show so far imo. Oh and Oscar Isaac's acting was really insane this episode, this man is a genius
The SUBTLE change from Marc to Steven when unraveling the star map in the desert is amazingly acted, absolute _chef's kiss_
@@merijn4440 it was! I had to replay this part a few times I was so amazed by that performance!
After watching this episode made me realize that it wasn't Marc who killed those guys in Germany because he was only in control until he jumped off the window and knocked himself out which leaves Steven in control. All of those fighting sequences where it got skipped were actually Jake and I believe we'll get to see those when he reveals himself in the future episodes (Or not).
You can see that in episode 1, Steven only loses control when he was hopelessly about to get himself killed until someone took over at the last minute. When he wakes up again, they were brutally murdered and Steven was left with blood all over his hands in a similar way like Marc woke up to in episode 3.
I initially thought that it was Marc who killed them, but since even he was disgusted by the way those guys were killed made me realize that it wasn't him who killed those guys in Germany. I just remembered that the reason why Steven was even in control in the first place in Germany was because Marc was unconscious at the time, and if he was awake, he would've tried his best to knock his enemies out (rooftop knife fight) or even if it was in a gunfight, he'll still try to disarm them and get into close range so he could beat them up with his fists without killing them. Jake on the other hand, shows no mercy and just ruthlessly murders them without holding back.
It also doesn't makes sense why Marc would just hand over to Steven as soon as those guys were killed while still being chased by them and holding the scarab in the middle of the most important mission. Plus, I don't think Steven was even trying to take control of the body to begin with
If Marc was awake, we would've heard him asking Steven to hand the body over to him but he didn't and we know that even Marc himself couldn't just take control of the body whenever he wants to and so does Steven, but Jake absolutely can and he only takes over to save them when they're completely about to get killed. Once the enemies are dead, he passes them back, and forth but he never cares to stay in control.
Thank you for your essay.
@@SoberAddiction You're very welcome haha
12:37 Oscar has a slightly different accent (Bronx?) while in the car with Layla so could be Jake here
Yeah same thought, and maybe Marc is telling the truth to Layla. That he's not responsible for her fathers demise, but it's Jake all along. And even maybe the fake cops are telling the truth also, that that very body of a mercenary made execution style to his comrade. Yes it's higly unlikey since it occurred long before, but if the cops were not faking their infos and their telling the truth. Then there is no way it's going to be Marc nor Steven.
Hence why Marc is having issues in this episode. There's no way Steven handled those knife guys and got away, and then he even says later he didn't kill them.
3 episodes in and Moon Knight is already my favorite MCU series. It looks Marc and Steven aren't alone and there's 3rd identity. This has to be Jake Lockley. Ethan Hawke and Oscar Isaac have been amazing so far and I really don't want this series to end.
This show is sooooo good. One of the best Marvel Studios productions.
Debatable
@@louwie9687 everything about it fucking great bro no goofy jokes for no reason, not really any ties to past mcu films, literally everything about it is new and fresh
@@DatBoiChris420 no goofy jokes? That is like stevens whole thing!
@@gen1136 But it's very little though.
I agree so far
In regards to the other gods and avatars. They mention they have imprisoned other gods and you see a number of ushabti in the end credits. This would explain why Ammit was now doing the work of Anubis.
Specifically the three in the center on the credits appear to be Anubis, Sekhmet, and Heith. Sekhmet was, to me, at first glance potentially Ra, but that one definitely was depicting Sekhmet upon further examination.
That raises the question though: if Ra is not among the 5 left alive, and he's not an ushabti, where the heck is he???
@@ElffieElix perhaps he simply has no avatar, as he has no more interest in the affairs of men after the rift
@@ElffieElix Baffling to me as well.
In mythology ,ammit would eat you in the afterlife, after anubis(or osiris) gave judgement with the scales, osiris also became the leader of the ennead
@@brods73 Exactly AFTER Anubis judged. Not doing the judging and eating all by their lonesome. Thats like a dad judging candy safety on Halloween. "Nope that looks daaaangerous gotta eat it to be sure..."
That moment where he suddenly changed to Steven to do the puzzle is really awesome and the change of the body language of the actor is so sudden and i love it
"Harrow is trying to summon Ammit"
"Is this true?"
"Nope, I was just hanging out in the desert, just ignore the fact that I'm carrying Ammit's cane thing that is clearly pulsating with magic"
"Good enough for us!"
This was the only part that really pushed the suspension of disbelief, although if it turns out that some know and secretly want him to succeed I guess it'll make sense.
I think the God/guy who was talking to Harrow is conspiring with him or something. Like how Goddes of music helped Marc.
@@mjsupport78 yeah, I was thinking the same after he allowed him a private audience to gloat.
You'd think in the last few thousands of years Khonshu would have caught at least a couple episodes of Law & Order to know how to better present a case. ;)
Agreed. Something didn't sit right with Osiris NOT bringing up the cane, or he was just tired of khonshu's antics and wanted him imprisoned.
Same. I thought surely you can make a better case than this or it is just poor writing. The scene is stupid unless they want Konshu removed or Harrow is in cohoots with one of them, Osiris was quick to point out he had done nothing wrong. And again seriously? Steve couldn't say well what is he doing with the cane and digging up Ammits tomb!
the writing is cringe, i thought the gods were siding with him, but no their actually stupid lmaoo
I’m in love with this show. But khonshu does sound really sad and almost comes off as caring and genuinely worried for the safety of Marc. Like he’s a good guy after all. He cares for humanity
Hot take: Kang (Jonathan Majors) was Ammets avatar that betrayed her. Either that or it was your mom.
Also, end credits. Moon is half full at half way through the season. I love that little detail, like we’ll finally understand the big picture when the moon is full. Maybe all his personalities will merge for a brief period or at least work together at the same time?
I've noticed what's happening with the moon as well. It's definitely waxing and headed to a full moon. A curious but fantastic bit of detail.
I laughed out loud for a minute straight when Doug started singing "It's Magic". Good boy, Doug! :-)
The tiny statues in the corner of the chamber is most likely other gods jailed in stone that have probably gone against the Ennead over the centuries.
What if the premise of the three personalities in this series (regardless of what's in the comics) is that the superior personality is aware of the other? E.g. Jake > Marc > Steven. This will explain why Marc is aware of Steven but Steven does not know Marc. But because Jake is superior, he knows both but both does not know him 🤷♀️
This comment needs more upvotes as this fits well with Jake being the overarching protector.
Great point!
Steven does know marc wym.
@@aliakram6675 Steven only knew now but Marc stated that he had always managed to keep a wall between them before. What if Jake's the same? Being the superior personality, he's managed to keep a wall between him and the other two. That would explain why Oscar Isaac had a different accent while asking the juice merchant for Senfu but still knew who Layla is. I suspect that version of Oscar Isaac with a cap was Jake. He had a different American accent.
Marc ,and Steven building up their relationship further only for Jake to throw a spanner in the works is such a great set up for moving forward. I wonder if khonshu is aware of them at all.
I think he is , he knows marc and steven as a worm, but don't try to bring up jake ,cause he also scared by his brutality lol.
Marc had handed over the body to Steven without blinking so Steven could put together the star, it’s probably because they both did it voluntarily/ they weren’t fighting for the body like they have been
I love that, grudgingly, Marc and Steven are finally learning to work WITH each other. This sells the revelation that there's a possible third personality in play more effectively.
Steven is just the sweetest mark is just broken and Jake is... well... deadly
Thank you Marvel for finding a new hero in a new culture and uniting us around the concept of good and evil wrapped in different cultures.
Ok but when Doug started singing…highlight of my day

I luv Doug's singing!
Also after Mark had struck Mogart while he was on his horse, you start hearing a bell ringing, like one from a clock tower, reminding us that Anton Mogart is Midnight Man.
RIP Gaspard Ulliel, thank you for that last performance.
I liked the part when Layla is looking at Steven fixing the star map. I think she's starting to like Steven rather than Mark.
I liked that part as well & thought the same thing. I also thought that Steven purposely has all the qualities Layla likes, that maybe Marc doesn’t or hasn’t exhibited. Marc had to of passed the feeling of his love onto Steven or maybe Steven can just sense it, who knows.
@@mr781mass9 it's complicated but i still love it 😂😂.
I’m so happy Doug has more lines. He makes these videos so much better.
If khonshu was rewinding space that would have messed with so many aliens 😂🤣
The flashing eyes could be a subtle reference to Stargate, where the Goa'uld impersonated the Egyptian (and other) gods, and switching between Host and Goa'uld was symbolized by their eyes flashing gold.
Mr Night doesn't just get stabbed by 5 spears, the imagery is explicitly very similar to the Five of Wands Tarot Card. The meaning of the Five of Wands is "Challenges, Obstacles, Fights, Disagreements, Resistance, and Conflict"
Ammit's name historically may have ties back to the Hebrew word Em-ett, meaning truth, which ties back to Mark's origins as a jew.
Related to that, the name Layla may be derived from the hebrew word Lie-lah, meaning night, which may be relevant given Konshu's threats to take her as his next host and the fact that he's tied so closely to Night.
In the ending credits it's interesting that they show several OTHER Egyptian deities apparently locked in stone, front and center is a Jackal headed god, possibly Anubis.
You missed the Indy reference with him punching the guy when he licked the blade. A nod to Indy shooting the sword guy.
The little dog is adorable ☺️☺️☺️" oh oh it's magic"☺️
I think in this series Jake might actually be the original. When you think about it, why would Mark make Steven to be an expert on Egypt just to refuse to let him do anything? I think Jake is the original, but all he really knows how to do well is fight so he created Mark as a more capable and personable persona and Steven as the intelligent expert. But when both falter it's up to Jake to come out and clean up their messes which neither are conscious for. For example in this episode we saw both Mark and Steven argue during the street fight only for both to blackout and blame each other for the bodies. And again during the fight with the guards I think Jake might have been in control because Mark was taking too long to jump into the fight, Mark doesn't take over again until Leila was being attacked and he takes off the mask for a moment, up until then he wasn't talking. Thinking back to the first episode when Steven was being attacked in the street and again in the cupcake van I think it might have been Jake taking over even though we were lead to believe it was Mark. I hope when they finally do reveal Jake they tell us which past moments were him.
you clearly do not know how DID works
@@nicholasfactor tbh shows like this tend not to follow the logic and science behind did and tend to make up things anyway
I regretted the moment I tapped Read more!
The basic fact that Marc is married makes me believe he is the real personality
In the first episode Khonshu says give the body to MARC so it was clearly not Jake
I found it odd they said "the night sky 2,000 years ago was different" when Ammit was buried as 2,000 years ago, Egypt was well under Roman rule and the gold age of the Pharohs was already hundreds of years in the past.
Ot bothered me too. They are usually better in details.
When all of the other spoiler channels are mentioning your name, you know you were doing something right! Great job Ryan!
The term “multiple personality disorder” was stopped being used in the 90’s and is no longer accurate. DID and OSDD are the proper terms when referring to this disorder. Love the content and sending you good vibes ❤️
In every fight sceneSteven is likeDisney putting PG 13 rating by interrupting in every fight scene😂.
I think the plot for layla's father seems like an important subplot for further episode. By the time she knows the whole story from harrow, she might succumb to anger and madness to Marc. She might also become ammit's next avatar. Well that's just my theory
omg. being imprisoned in stone was foreshadowed by the woman getting a picture taken? wow I have no words.
Love the little handwritten video cassettes! Great touch!
The English threats to the hound were everything! 😂
The treat in the jar.
Ancient Egyptians were the first to enjoy a gooey treat now called marshmallow as early as 2000 BC. The treat was considered very special and it was reserved for gods and royalty. Marshmallow was made from the mallow plant (Athaea officinalis) that grows wild in marshes.
If Jake is the 3rd personality then it nearly confirms that Marc is the main avatar
Jake and Steven are his 2 extremes
Steven is the peaceful one and Jake is an all out killer
While Marc himself is a lethal fighter but he holds back his punches
If they are bringing out jake, i hope they gave him his own suit as well. Since they made Mr. Knight an extension of Steven and Moon Knight of Marc, i'd love it if they have Detective/Inspector Knight for Jake. Since Jake works by gathering intel in the streets, giving him the suit as a detective is perfect. It may have same character design like Noir Spider-man in the Spiderverse but white. Also, giving Steven the formal suit of Mr. Knight kinda make sense, setting him up as a billionaire businessman in the future. I hope each suit receives a different power-set from Khonshu as well.
7:27 okay this made me laugh out loud WAY too hard hahaha
I know it’s not a spoiler, but I’m absolutely loving the music in this show.
Egyptian here, The kid who kills himself is called Ahmed Dash and he's a rising star in the Egyptian Scene, very pleased with this episode and Mohamed Diab's Direction. Couldn't be prouder of Egyptian talent showcasing the greatness of Egyptian History.
It's magic you know 😂...your dog has great vocal
the lyric of both ep2 ep3 ending songs after translation fit the episode so perfect wow
Love the little singing adorable thing
I also believe Khonshu is the one taking over Marc’s body. In the beginning of the episode, the introduction talked about Marc having 3 voices in his head. The 3rd one being Khonshu, not Jake. Plus Khonshu seems to have the power to do something like that.
Nah Khonshu going back in his statue. They’re going to fuck up.
If he had that power he would've killed harrow instead of begging Steven to "crush his wind pipe"
@@danielhughes5932 I don’t think he can do it al the time. Maybe it’s a limited use thing and it only happens when he’s confused with who’s body he’s in.
Dumb theory
@@thehoundgamer4602 khonshu should've been able to do that from before is he could just posses marc like that instead of telling steven to kill harrow in ep 2. Plus, in ep 1, Khonshu reacts in two ways when steven takes the body back in ep , he says "surrender the body to Marc" and "oh, it's the stupid one" meaning that he had expected that another alter already knew of marc and could transfer control back to him unlike steven who had no idea that he was an alter.
SPOILER
comics: Jake Lockley is already an existing character/alter of Marc and his only other (main focus) alter besides Steven, Moon Knight, and later on Mr. Knight
I just wanted to say thank you to the amazing and creative team at Screencrush. I also wanted to say a little theory I think also implies the existence of Jake. Basically the "Mr. Knight" mask has a crack in it, which could be linked to Moonknight's fractured psyche, but I don't think so. Considering the fact that Steven doesn't know how Knoshu's magic works, it could be said that this suit was made by Jake; who is a violent based off episode 3, which could mean that this fracture on the mask was made by one of Jake's "excursions".
I just realized when Harrow says “we aspire to learn 3 languages” could be a wink at the 3rd (Jake Lache) persona! I can’t believe I missed it lol
Osiris's Avatar says towards the end of the episode why there are only five god's there. Others, like Khonshu, have been encased in stone. Secondly, their eyes aren't rolling up in their heads, they're flashing white like Marc's does when he's in his moon knight persona.
The end credits show a bunch of stone statuettes, which might be a clue to that.
Thank you for always putting the connections on screen
Damn dude, hands down THE BEST NordVPN advert. You had me going there for a second.
Absolutely incredible channel. All the things I miss are always picked up on by Ryan. Its lead me to be more aware of the things I watch myself!
5:42 thanks for the Venture Brothers pull!!! My favorite show!
Another "Lost Ark" comparison is the swordsman swinging his blade and being interrupted by the gunshot is like the guy licking the blade and getting punched in the teeth mid-way.
I just noticed a scene in Episode 3, wherein in the latter part of the episode, when Steven Grant and Layla are walking upwards the dune to go to Khonshu and seek the constellation, the moon shown there is a Half Moon, representing that we are now down to the half part of the Moon Knight series, which are listed with six episodes.
Idk how anyone would not binge the screeners! I would
Great video, thanks!
Thanks Ryan!
Khonshu calls the Ennead to accuse Harrow but Marc doesn't mention the people Harrow has killed, his tattoo, the cane, the jackals or the scarab compass.
Maybe this shoulda been ep 2 but that'd feel rushed.
I also was a bit irritated that Konshu or Marc did not bring up all of this. Makes you wonder if Konshu/Marc detected something and it would be worthless to state everything they knew Harrow was up to.
@@yarnman7 my guess is that the ep was written with limited consultation with the previous eps writers.
@@MrVxBojanglesxv except that Mohamed Diab has his hands on all aspects of the show including directing 5 of the 6 episodes. He should be very able to ensure continuity. What if it wasn't Marc the last time Konshu released him, and it was Steven? Steven would admit to being not right, but would probably stop there.
I'm pretty sure we saw Bast's avatar in the trial. There was a woman with a Wakandan accent and when they focused on her, there was a panther statue in front of her.
that was Tefnut, she has a lion head. Hayley Konadu is the actress.
@@yanamei111 Ah, thanks for the correction. I watched the show when it first aired at 2 AM and incredibly tired, lol.
6:00 the slapping the kid instead of hurting them also happened in Extraction (2020).
Holy crap I just realized……. Oscar Isaac played apocalypse in X-men apocypse, an Egyptian pharaoh almost diety like mutant 😭😭 and now he’s messing around with Egypt and Egyptian gods. I know that’s kinda obvious but I found that interesting
Your vids are always very very awesome man :D
Can we talk about how super cool khonshu looks and sound in this?
That was the best sales pitch for a VPN I've ever seen. I'm genuinely impressed.
during the market chase scene - the amount of bananas represent every Marvel episode on Disney+
Moon Knight having an healing factor is not taken from the comics but from Egyptian mythology in which the Moon, as the second eye of Ra, has healing powers. Hathor and Khonshu having a friendly relationship is justified by the fact they're both gods linked to maternity. Khonshu name's in some transcription is "Pharaoh's placenta". Osiris on the other hand, just like Ammit, is one of the gods of the underworld.
Nice catch👌
The moon has a lot of conections with healing. Konsu and Tot bota have this elements as moon gods.
But in The comics The suit heal mark and Konshu always ressurect him, healing and not living him die
@@EligorArgentum the suit in the comics doesn't heal him. It's just an armor basically. It's bulletproof but It's not magic
I think Marc is telling his truth. If something, I think Jake is responsible for what ever Harrow is talking about.
Such a great episode! The right scene was pretty badass and I can't wait to see the way they show off the third personality!
Orion is also my favorite constellation :D
This episode is amazing
Loving the new VHS pop-ups!
This episode was gripping, had me on the edge of the Bat Cave seat
I feel the comment made about him getting the first 4 episodes ahead of time was directed at me lol
But no. You're just amazing at these breakdowns every week
wow i finished the episode right on time this morning.
Pretty sure Jake is the one who got Steven the date he missed in Episode 1. It obviously wasn't Steven and having found out about Layla afterwards, it is also unlikely that Marc would've been the one to hit on Steven's coworker and ask her out on the date to the steakhouse.
Jake seems to be the real one. In the last episode, Khonshu reminded Mark that he was not the owner of the body. Probably refering to jake as the main character.
No he said that because HE is the one who owns Marc's body since he is the one that revived him. So what it meant was Khonshu is the owner of the body.
@@jojo-nr5ir no it meant Marc is. You both are wrong. You both missed the part where it was Marc who got shot in the back of the head. Because he was the original. And why Kanshu brought him back and where the alters began using Marc’s body. Without Steven / jake Marc is back to being dead. Marc is the original
@@natechenry Without Steven/Jake Marc is NOT back to being dead how does that make any sense?
Crazy breakdown..
when marc was wearing that baseball cap and talking to the beverage vendor, he has a different american accent. i was thinking that was his 3rd personality in action
Yeah it’s definitely a New York accent.
I like how khonshu sacrifice himself getting himself imprisoned so that steve can get his goal accomplished
The scene where the avatars' eyes glowed and their repected gods spoke through them reminded me of the Goa'uld from Stargate SG- 1. Which also dabbled in ancient mythology such as Egyptian.
More like the Tok'ra who shared the body with their host and were more symbiotic in nature. The Goa'uld completely dominated their hosts and literally enslaved their minds.
@@MrLee-cy1pw That would be a better comparison, but the reason I referenced the Goa'uld was because Osiris, Isis, and Hathor were in fact Goa'ulds in the series.
Dude, you're the only comic book guy I watch.
It's my favorite episode so far!!! Just hope it involved more blood
Him channeling Konshu sounded like Broken Matt Hardy lol
The presenter’s use of the “Family Matters” intro is also a sly nod to the influence of Robert Kirk-man in geek culture. The use of the black on black cubs cap was influenced by the Nas scene in the first act of Martin Scorsese’s “The Departed”
Fun video!
The music is very cinematic and follows musical phrases from Raiders.
Brahhh you covered everything dang
I love the part in the episode where Mark WillSmiths the kid
What other heroes do you want to see Moon Knight team up with?
Hulk and the space cat
Definitely spiderman
Spider-man , rocket and Groot 🤣
BLADE
Daredevil or blade
