#MoonKnight #Finale #EasterEggs

Well the people who wanted more Moon Knight in the show got their wish, as this episode featured a giant action set piece with 2 Moon Knights, gods, layla [cats and dogs, living together, mass hysteria]. I want to know your thoughts on the finale down in the comments. Personally, I thought it was a great ending to Marc and Stevens arcs, and didn;t try to cram in too much or outside MCU references.

And I loved the post credits scene, which we’re going to talk about a little later on, believe me.

One thing the show has been great at is their music choices. The song at the beginning of this episode is appropriately titled “The end” by Earl Grant. It’s got this kind of dreamy quality that suits the afterlife elements of the show. But the lyrics are spot on for this show, talking about how quests and stories end; eventually you find a pot of gold at the end of a rainbow, etc. But our love is a story that never ends. But this isn;t talking about marc and layla, it’s talking about the love shared between marc and steven. Two broken halves who need each other to be whole.

After two episodes we’re back in the real world, as we return to Marc’s body in Alexander’s tomb. Harrow drops thai line [whoever else might be in there] one of many bits of foreshadowing of the twist ending.

Afterwards layla cries over his body and takes the scarab–foreshadowing that she’s going to be a superhero by the end of this episode.

Doug: How is that foreshadowing?

I’ll explain later.

Doug: Okay then.

Check out this mural, with two deities with wings–but the way they have their wings open looks like crocodile mouths being served. Then Harrow's can of judgment morphs into an ax, representing that Ammit it about to become not only the judge, but the executioner of the dead. I mean, she kind of always was because it’s Anubis who weighs the souls of the afterlife, but whatever.

Taweret reanimates the dead to speak to Layla, and I liked the detail that even the dead’s eyes roll up in their heads, just like when avatars take control of them. Coincidentally, this is also what happens to Marc when he switches personalities, which is a real life symptom of DID.

Or maybe it’s not a coincidence, and the show is trying to imply that the alters are actually like new souls people create. Actually, this makes sense because Steven and Marc both appear as separate people in the realm of the dead. Implying that they are two souls living in one body.

Harrow storms the temple, conveniently doesn't notice Layla, and frees Ammit. So immediately Ammit notices that harrow is umpire. Like wicked impure

But, it surprises Harrow to learn that she’s not looking for a perfect man, she wants a bad boy [clip]. This is Ammit already comprising the pure vision that Harrow was following. He thought that she would be the final say in cleansing the world, that ONLY the good people would live. But her wanting to spare harrow shows that she is already making compromises to benefit her own power.

Layla has to find Khonshu’s ushbati–and in a show that’s file with Indiana Jones references, this felt like a nod to this.

I thought it was very interesting that suddenly she is able to see Khonshu. I’m guessing that this is either because Khonshu’s avatar is dead, so he’s not tied to the physical plane-or because he is appealing to her to be his avatar. He calls her [little bug]. Which is a play on her father’s nickname for her.

Now for a few weeks fans have been speculating that this detail–along with the scarab on her band aid in the hospital–meant that she would be getting super powers. And, congrats, you were right. People theorized that she would be the MCU’s version of the villain the scarlet scarab. And her costume does end up with a scarab on the chest, but her costume is green. I think. I’m colorblind. Is it green?

The scarab has major significance in Egyptian mythology. It’s the representation of the god Kepri, who is the god of rebirth. The Egyptians believed that every morning, when the son reappeared, it was reborn as a beetle. Just as Layla is reborn as an avatar in his episode.
