we'll break it all down if you're brand new to the  channel be sure to subscribe to get all the videos  

i will be doing videos for all the episodes just  like all the other disney plus series we're doing  

a giveaway for disney plus memberships all you  have to do is enter is be a subscriber and just  

leave your favorite moment from the trailer on  the video careful for spoilers if you have not  

seen moon knight episode 1 yet just because we'll  be talking about things that happen during episode  

one because they'll basically be picking up  where episode one left off and steven grant  

is just starting to learn what's actually been  going on like we ended moonite episode one with  

steven grant actually meeting marc spector for the  first time in the personalities within his head  

communicating within his head for the first time  which is a big trope of the moon knight comics  

all of his different personalities have this sort  of tentative balance and truth between them they  

understand each other's importance like they need  each other to do different types of things right  

now the tv show's only kind of showing us two  different personalities marc spector and steven  

grant and when he's in full moon knight regalia  like when his powers activate around him he's in  

marc spector form he has all of his mercenary  abilities based on what layla was telling him  

on the phone about two months ago he died with  her then disappeared but the whole idea is that  

he died at the statue of concho like he dragged  himself to the statue of konju before he died  

made the bargain with khonshu who raised him from  the dead as his avatar so the big thing in episode  

two i think is getting a piece of his backstory we  might not get every single part of his backstory  

and how he became moonlight but we'll get a lot  of his backstory that's the whole idea with marvel  

telling the story rashem on style where you woke  up for the first time but you see steven grant  

before you learn about marc spector big twist  all this time you've been spending with this  

character oscar isaac doing this really weird  british accent is totally fake it's a totally  

fake identity that he slipped into at some point  after he became moonlight thinking that it was  

real for some reason based on some of the trailer  footage that we've seen so far i'm assuming that  

it has something to do with the trauma of dying  and then coming back to life and something that  

ethan hawks arthur harrow character joked about  with him during episode 1 might be a clue to that  

he said that he assumed that the steven grant  persona was just meant to be an alias like oh  

you're doing that weird accent and using this name  in this job here because it's just an alias but  

then once he talks to him he's surprised to find  out that the steven grant persona thinks that he's  

a completely real person so i think the idea is  that steven grant will start learning more about  

marc spector his backstory and learned that he was  actually just an alternate persona created by him  

before he became moon knight and used during  his mercenary missions like marc spector would  

go to different countries as a mercenary and  pretend to be steven grant just to hide his  

true identity but then when he died there was  so much trauma his mind fractured even more  

and he just kind of slipped into the steven  grant persona believing that it was real  

you weren't supposed to see any of this what are  you i'm sure you want to know we've seen a little  

bit of footage of him also going to marc spector's  locker so if you remember when he grabbed the key  

in the cell phone and started learning who marc  spector was and marc spector started speaking  

inside his mind like steven stop poking around  stop trying to figure things out you're going to  

hurt yourself the key that he pulled out of that  special cubby is actually to the locker where he  

keeps all of his weapons and his technology so  what'll probably happen as we saw the time jumps  

during episode one like he would slip between  different personalities and it would feel kind  

of like a time jump like something terrible would  happen to him he'd suffer some sort of head trauma  

or someone would attack him it would trigger a  transformation between different personalities  

he'd slip into marc spector but then he'd wake up  again after he'd done something really wtf as marc  

spector as steven grant not really understanding  what marc spector had done so when marc spector  

took over his body at the end of episode one we  saw the full moon knight costume reveal we saw it  

form around his body for the first time that was  the first time we saw steven grant actively try  

to give over his body give over control to marc  spector previously it had been an unconscious  

thing i think that'll also continue to develop  through the series like steven grant will learn to  

have this tend to balance with marc spector even  though marc spector is the original personality  

they'll figure out a better easier way to  give each other control of their body during  

different times the big question right now  is why would marc spector need steven grant  

and my assumption right now is that something with  the resurrection something with the trauma of him  

coming back to life made it so that his mind only  has access to really critical information when the  

steven grant personality is in command like steven  grant is learning all these new things about the  

india the pantheon of egyptian gods that khonshu  belongs to all of his sisters and brothers  

remember i said that boss the panther goddess  who black panther gets all of his powers from  

she's also conscious sister she's supposed to show  up during thor love and thunder during gore of the  

god butcher's mission to go around killing all the  gods so we will eventually meet boss the panther  

goddess their father atom is the egyptian god of  the sun he was featured at the end of episode one  

when steven grant was walking through that egypt  exhibit he was in the background here that's his  

idol concho's relationship with the other gods  isn't super antagonistic but he doesn't exactly  

like all of them like they're not buddy buddy  khonshu was meant to be the egyptian god of the  

moon traditionally but he's also the egyptian god  of vengeance so part of the idea too in the future  

episodes is we'll learn more about the truth of  the history of the egyptian gods remember they  

are legit gods and they're just one pantheon of  gods like they're not the only gods that exist in  

the mcu we'll meet a bunch of lesser gods during  thor love and thunder like legit gods and people  

that call themselves gods some of them are just  cosmic beings some of them are legit gods though  

not all legit gods of the mcu are as powerful as  cosmic beings like you can have vastly different  

power levels the only difference between legit  gods and cosmic beings is that legit gods get most  

of their power from the faith of their followers  in addition to some cosmic powers really powerful  

cosmic beings like the celestials who are more  powerful than almost everybody not everybody but  

almost everybody in the mcu get most of their  power from a really scientific source so it  

doesn't matter if people believe in the celestials  they would still exist if nobody knew that they  

existed it's also why you don't see khonshu going  to try and fight the celestials or anything like  

that like one he doesn't really care about them  because he's really selfish and the celestials  

aren't trying to kill him because he lives in an  alternate dimension he doesn't live inside the  

main mcu but also two he's not nearly as powerful  as the celestials we learned during episode one  

that ethan hawk's character arthur harrow is the  avatar of omit who technically isn't really part  

of their pantheon she's just a lesser god who's  part of their pantheon who did what they wanted  

to do like the original boogeyman who served a  purpose but it sounds like a long time ago like  

in ancient history she went rogue and tried to  physically enter the main mcu dimension and gain  

way more power in the process and judge everyone  instantly on the spot going full minority report  

killing anyone who would ever do evil things and  even though khonshu for instance doesn't really  

care about humanity he's a very selfish god like  i said even he would balk at something like that  

like if you killed half of the people that would  kill half of our followers we would get way more  

weak as a result that's bad for us but also too  that's just a really shady thing to do of all  

the shady things you could do there's also a bit  of a slight wink at khonshu vs marc spector so  

when marc spector becomes the avatar of khonshu.  Khonshu gains a special connection with him and he  

gains control over his body like a limited ability  to control his body so a lot of times you'll see  

marc spector fighting khonshu for control of his  body when khonshu asks him to do something that's  

really shady or that he doesn't want to do that's  why when he tried to give him the scarab beetle as  

steven grant khonshu closed his fist like it  was khonshu controlling his body keeping him  

from doing that also the different personalities  can have a sort of war with each other so each  

different personality in his head can fight each  other for control of the body but the whole idea  

with the layla character like you see the footage  from episode two where she's talking to him about  

remembering their adventures together is layla  figuring out who steven grant is and steven grant  

learning more about his history all this footage  of him visiting egyptian monuments then falling  

into the water like arthur harrow's men shooting  him trying to kill him is probably something that  

happened in flashbacks when he was becoming moon  knight for the first time all the footage of him  

in london coming into costume and layla seeing  him as moon knight for the first time like wow  

marc you look a little bit different is probably  her eventually coming to where he is in london  

in present day and just figuring out what's been  going on with him this whole time like oh you've  

been here for the last two months all while author  harrow's coming for him in present day and she's  

just there for a lot of that just witnessing it  happen like wait a minute you died and became this  

mass vigilante avatar of one of the real gods of  the mcu the egyptian pantheon and you're talking  

to this mysterious khonshu god figure that only  you can see remember any time that khonshu was  

speaking to him he's speaking inside his head  so arthur harrow even though he has this special  

connection he's the avatar of amit and has godly  power can't hear khonshu when khonshu was speaking  

to marc spector but if it wasn't clear where all  of his power comes from the special crocodile  

head kane in the bands the tattoo that shifts on  his arm when he's grabbing people all that power  

comes from a myth the same way that marc spector  is the avatar of concho and gets all these moon  

knight powers from him and the whole idea is that  arthur harrow says during episode one when he's  

using his power judging someone having their soul  sucked out of them you're only getting a fraction  

of emits power it's the same idea with khonshu  like khonshu only has a fraction of his power  

in the mcu while he's trapped in this alternate  dimension but the idea during season one with the  

special scarab beetle is trying to use it to find  a way to bring all the egyptian gods or at least  

amit into the mcu where she'll gain way more power  gods can go between different dimensions like any  

other god but their most powerful in the dimension  where their followers originally came from but
