Rating: 4.5 out of 5 NEXT: 50+ Of The Best & Most Bonkers Marvel’s Moon Knight Quotes Only time will tell, but for now we have to prepare for the epic finale to come next week. Moon Knight episode 5 is the best episode of the show so far - and might even be the best Marvel Disney+ episode ever. This could very well mean that there is a second personality still on the ship. When Steven fell of the ship, there was still two hearts on the scale, and it balanced. While Marc, Steven, and Jake were on the boat the scale wouldn’t balance because there are three people, but only 2 hearts on the scale.

This allows for a super emotional and heartfelt journey through Marc’s past – whether it was Steven accepting that his mother has died, or even him finding out that he was created by Marc, none of this would be possibly if it wasn’t for the story structure of this show thus far.Īfter this extremely emotional scene between Marc and Steven, they come back to Taweret to unfortunately find out they did not balance the scales by finding closure with one another. Since Marc was the one that technically lived through it all, we are discovering these things right alongside Steven, which makes it so much more relatable.


What works so well with Moon Knight episode 5 is that viewers are watching it through Steven’s eyes. It is learned that Steven has been the dominant personality for these last two months, but that Marc is the one that created him in order to suppress the way his mother treated him. Fans are also shown the exact moment when Steven and Marc started to blend together - at his mother’s Shiva.

As Marc looks at each of the bodies, he knows exactly where he killed them - he remembers them all.īushman is mentioned in this episode, and it would have been nice to dive into that relationship a little bit more.
