Moon Knight episode 5 featured a lot of revelations about Marc Spector’s past. But did it also introduce another personality? Spoilers ahead.
Moon Knight fans have been convinced the Marvel show may introduce a third personality for Marc Spector for several episodes now. The big bet is they could bring in Jake Lockley, who is a violent alter-ego for Marc in the comic books that the show is loosely based on.
There have been a few hints already, including Marc and Steven Grant left wondering who killed Arthur Harrow’s men in episode 3. Then there was also the tease in episode 4 that someone was trying to break out of a third sarcophagus.
Now, some eagle-eyed fans think Jake actually made his first appearance on the show. The scene in question comes at the beginning of episode 5 when Marc – or someone who seems to be Marc – wakes up back in Arthur Harrow’s office. Sitting with a mysterious cut on nose, he says: "Thank you, I feel really great, I mean they must pay you a lot of money in this place, you’re really good. I feel like a million dollars, never felt so good, I’m going to see myself out."
However, there seem to be some inconsistencies with this moment compared to the Marc we know well. For those listening carefully, his accent seems to be slightly different from Marc's so far and he’s also acting with different mannerisms as he grabs a shard of glass in the violent display.
In the comic books, Jake is a rough-and-tumble cab driver with connections to New York’s criminal underbelly. He is also known for his violent tendencies and is regarded as one of the most brutal of Marc’s personalities. These elements have led some fans to speculate if this is actually Jake in this scene.
