Welcome to the Heavy Spoilers show I'm your host Paul and this video we're breaking down
episode 5 of She Hulk.
The new entry is filled with easter eggs, hidden details and a lot of things that let
us know what's gonna be happening in the show.
Throughout this video we're gonna be going through it all.
I am away at the moment which is why this video is a bit later than usual so huge apologies
if you haven't been able to sleep cos you were worried that I'd found something better
to do with my life.
Yaaay still a loser.
With all that out the way, huge thank you for clicking this, now let's get into She
Hulk Episode 5.
-
Now when we last left Jen she was getting served papers in regards to Titania taking
the trademark of her name.
In this entry we see her and Jen going to court against one another which has tie backs
to the comics as they ended up fighting in one during the first major She Hulk Run.
We know from the trailers that Titania will return once more and I think she could be
revealed as being the one who hired the wrecking crew.
We'll talk about Todd more later on but I think that she's going to be set up as the
main villain for a number of reasons.
Firstly she's been all over the social media for the show and she's popped up in several
twitter posts and promo videos.
Secondly her name has been splashed throughout at least one news report ever entry.
Thirdly, her origin story ties into She Hulk and in the original Secret Wars she was created
through Doctor Dooms experiments involving Jen.
Her first fight was also against Jen which started off a major rivalry between the two
similar to what we are gonna be getting here.
Titania is very much an opposite to Jen as she's a superhero with no skill that has a
marketing team behind her so she can secure the fame she craves.
Jen has actual powers and abilities but she wants to be left alone.
-
So though this episode ends with her being defeated I think she'll try every way that
she can to make sure she takes She Hulk down.
Titled Mean, Green and Straight Poured into these Jeans it's the shortest entry we've
had so far clocking in at 30 minutes with the intro and credits.
This title refers to Jens dating profile for She Hulk which is used as a way to prove she
was happy with the name before Titania took it.
Now whereas we normally get news reports opening episodes, this entry begins with an advert
for Titanias She Hulk.
I kinda feel like the entire thing might be a play on Gwyneth Paltrows range of beauty
products Goop and you might remember that there was a bit of a kerfuffle online cos
she was selling a candle that smelt like Tony Starks fingers.
Or at least that's what I told my wife.
Also last week I said as a joke that my wife left me cos I got caught liking pictures of
She Hulk.
Had people going ahhh your wife left you but she hulk doesn't exist mate and if you don't
understand sarcasm then you probably also don't have a wife, so f**k you mate.
Anyway the ad has a similar style to Gwyneths but I'm guessing this is just the usual style
for ads like this so let me know below if you know a one that it's closer to.
The advert boasts about Strength which is of course She Hulks main ability and she's
pretty much stolen her entire image.
I can't...can't get sued for ripping off New Rockstars can I?
Good, phew, yeah make the arrows Yellow and no one will notice.
Titania is everywhere including billboards and ads on podcasts.
We hear Jen Listening to the Pro Say podcast which in real life is a legal one that discusses
the law.
Jens cousin Ched shows up asking for She Hulk to sign some She Hulk products which shows
how Titania has entered every aspect of her life.
Hilariously this includes the title sequence which is a really cool fourth wall breaking
thing in which Titania thanks the audience.
This signing ends up showing up in the credits scene with use getting a quick shot of a titania
card that says signed by she hulk on it which is being sold by Todd.
Titania is a snake oils salesman which incase you don't know was coined during the wild
wild west when con-men would travel from town to town selling tonics that apparently cured
all ailments.
Now the term means someone who sells valueless goods that don't do what they say.
The colour of that is pink representing titania and the rest of the products are Green which
represent She Hulk.
The snake venom one is of course vicious whereas the green ones are connected to beauty symbolicaly
showing how the two differ.
Back at the office Jen shows how attached she actually is to the name and even though
before she'd tried to focus on being Jen.
However being She Hulk has opened a lot of doors for her including the job that she now
works at.
Pugh goes to Nikki to ask if she'll stand in line with him for some Iron Man threes
which are sneakers that we've seen advertised throughout the series.
These pop up in the credits image and we see Pugh buying them.
However there's also lots of different characters here some of which are really interesting.
We get Frogman ones who will be popping up in the series, there are some cyclops one
referring to the X-men, Deadpool, The Thing, Captain America, Spider-man, Captain Marvel
ones and ones that also belong to Storm.
We learn Pugh has a drip broker called Alonso which may be a nod to Marvel Producer Victoria
Alonso.
Also might be a reach but a drip broker could be a play on the power broker aka Sharon Carter.
However I think it's just a nod to the costume creator from the incredibles
and we get the same sort of sassy attitude.
Realising that she can get Jen an info she decides to get her some super hero clothing
which Jen focuses on the Titaniacs.
They travel to Beau-Ba which is a front for super hero clothing and inside we can catch
the QR code and this will get you a free she hulk comic if you scan it.
This is a Boba cafe but the name Beau-Ba is a play on the phrase beau which means boyfriend
or lover.
Though the guy at the front plays it down it's eventually revealed with a bit of racism
that he actually sells Superhero stuff but it's not exactly what they had in mind.
This includes a Hulk towel with the character wearing a borat thong.
Some avngers...sorry avingers boxers and mugs, a toy thor hammer that I own...I mean...I
mean my kid owns and some captain america sheilds.
We can see aren't official due to the colours of the rings being wrong.
This is why the guy was worried they were cops because he's actually selling counterfiet
goods.
You might have seen one of this avongers merch before and in the credits images we caught
Jen holding up one of the mugs as evidence.
Now quick segue to let you know that if you wanna support the channel we have a merch
store over at zero edition which is linked as the pinned comment..
We've got a better call paul t-shirt on there now so if She Hulk is giving you lots of lawyer
vibes or you just like Better Call Saul then definitely head over there.
We also have a See Ya chump one so you can make sure damn punks know you won't put up
with their crap and huge thank you to everyone who's got one so far.
Cut to the secret door to see them rocking that sweet Avongers merch and you know Marvel
just ran people out of town who make this stuff.
Gonna get to a point where im willing to pay $200 just to get an avongers t shirt with
a purple hulk and yellow iron man cos it showed up for three minutes in this show.
Get me them Iron Man threes you f**k.
Anyway Pugh is going full Captain America in Endgame as he's carrying not only the sheild
but also the hammer as well.
Nice just getting some focus on the side characters and this was one of the mosst fun parts of
the season so far for me.
Elsewhere Jen is called in By Holliway to ask why his new staff member is out advertising
booty boosters.
Similar to a couple of things we've mentioned so far, these end up showing up in the credits
with Holliway even drinking one.
He seems a bit annoyed but if you think thats bad then you should see the meltodwn the internet
had over She Hulk shaking hers with megan thee stallion.
Ruined, the you bloody ruined the mcu and my life you f**k.
She Hulk is given a lawyer to handle the lawsuit and this is where her side of the episode
really gets going.
Now Mallory Book is a really interesting character in the show to take focus on.
Though Marvel never fully leans into everything from the comics there's a lot of things that
they could be doing with her if we look at the source material.
In the comics Mallory was a next level lawyer that was nicknamed the face that never lost
a case.
She was extremely formidabble but due to all the chaos that Jen brought into her life she
ended up starting to hate her.
She ended up becoming the Chair of Fourth Wall Enterprises which....bit on the nose
but they had a sinister plan.
Book and the group wanted to create their own version of She Hulk that they could control.
Again this could tie into the DNA plot and she might end up working with Titania to try
and secure this.
This could tie in with the wrecking crew and bring together all of the plot lines instead
of us just having fractured ones on the show.
She does tell Jen she can do better and the pair drink together eventually but I feel
like there is a rivalry that's gonna build between the pair.
Anyway Jen brings up both Doctor Strange and Thor who both use their real names which is
why they can't be copied.
I'm sure Hulk probably has the name locked by now but either way She Hulk hasn't been
trademarked which has allowed Titania to take it.
There's lots of hilarious cases of this in real life with a guy in the UK taking the
name Singhsburys to play on Sainsbury before he got sued and changed it to Morrisinghs
instead of Morrissons.
There's also about a million different plays on KFC but Titania has straight up jacked
the name making it a different story.
They connect the A and B storylines after Mallory suggest she get some proper clothing
and Titania calls her Shrek.
I feel like she's more of a fiona but I digress.
At this point Mallory ends up arguing her case to the judge and she goes through how
She Hulk was first mentioned by the public which we saw in the news report that opened
episode 2.
Mallory wants to put these into the record tying back to this moment.
-
Now Titania argues that she's not the sham hulk and she talks about how she has tonnes
of testimonials from bots like my subscribers.
Titanias side argues that She Hulk was only interested in the name once it became successful
and we see footage of her leaving court saying that she doesn't want it.
However Mallory plays the news interview from episode 3 that was advised by Blonsky.
At the drip broker we get a nice little line on the blood which of ccourse is how She Hulk
was able to be born.
Initially ma man drip doesn't wanna do it but he realises that theres a challenge in
it having to fit both her and Jen.
Back at the office Shee Hulk gets a bit of a surprise with a returning character.
Now if you checked out our last breakdown then you'll know how we talked about Todd
who will be played by Jon Bass.
We said that he sounded very similar to the member of the wrecking crew from Episode 3.
-
I didn't see anyone else mention it but the fact that he was the only person in a mask
made me think that they hid his identity for a reason.
He of course also broke up penetrating her skin and it was a weird thing to drop in conversation.
Since then lots of other info has come out for the character including his name in the
credits before Disney changed it up.
Originally he was listed as Todd/Todd-Hulk making me think he's gonna tie massively into
the blood plot and potentially even get some of the dna for himself.
Jon Bass' character was also discussed heavily by the creative team in the build up to the
series and they said that he's gonna be a sleezier version of Tony Stark who's a rich
guy that keeps popping up everywhere.
Therefore I'm kinda expecting him to appear in a number of episodes going forward and
for this amazing twist to be revealed.
If not it's another fan theory for the trash heap but ey, my stuffs not been too off the
mark recently.
I kinda think that this rich thing might all be a front and that he could be being bankrolled
by either titania or the leaked villains that I'll talk about at the end of the video.
I don't wanna drop that yet as it's a potential spoiler but make sure you stick around until
the end if you don't mind em.
Though Jen regrets going on that date she realises that because her dating profile had
her name on that she can use those she met as witnesses.
One of the things shes looking for is a sturdy king size bed and she of course broke the
one in episode 1.
This was a callback to the comics in which she also broke one in the opening of the dan
slott run after transforming into her bigger self to not scare off her date.
We once more get the return of the dates including David Otunga who incasae you don't know was
a wrestler that used to be a lawyer.
He used this as part of his character and we hear the other go through their experiences.
The guy she hooked up with belittles her and says that he wouldn't date Jen which knocks
her confidence a bit and in the comics this got to the point that she used to prefer to
remain in the she hulk persona.
Back with the Drip Broker she gets given a suit along with something else which will
likely be her comic book accurate costume.
The episode ends with the drip broker putting away a special costume and this of course
belongs to none other than Daredevil.
Now Daredevil coming back is probably the aspect of the show that I was looking forward
to the most cos I hate women and I f**king hate jokes as weelllllll-
Anyway he of course came back for Far From Home in his Matt Murdock persona and we now
have him in a new costume that's slightly more inline with the comics.
It's sort of a best of both worlds where he gets the yellow that was originally part of
the boxing leotard that he wore but it's infused with the Netflix design.
Matt's father was a boxer which spawned that original look and it then evolved over time.
Obviously he's very much gonna be an example of how Jen can live both a life of crime fighting
whilst still being a lawyer and he's more of a role model to her.
Interestingly the show has flipped things up from the comics.
In those she was happier in her She Hulk persona, preferring that over accepting who she viewed
as being plain and uninteresting.
Here though Jen is more interested in being herself and the She Hulk stuff is an after
thought.
Over time I think she'll learn to accept both sides similar to how Bruce did and though
his advice was initially ignored in episode 1 I can see it coming back around.
Daredevil will of course be popping up in Echo before going onto his main show in Born
Again.
This is of course based on the Frank Miller graphic novel but it's also very much a meta
joke on how he's now back with Marvel and going in a new direction.
From here we roll into the credits and this is the first episode where we don't get a
post credits scene.
Now though this was super short I actually enjoyed it the most out of the episodes so
far.
I do want more from the series at the moment but I think this was short and sweet and it
had some cool little moments in it.
Obviously the big thing everyone is gonna be talking about is the last few seconds of
the entry but I think what came before that was pretty fun.
I think this was put there so everyone comes back next week and though I'm not completely
gripped by the series I will indeed be back for that.
Now for the next part of the video I wanna talk
about the leaks on the show about who the big bad actually is.
These aren't confirmed but Super Duper Scooper Daniel RPK has put a post out on his patreon
discussing who the true villains are.
If you don't want to know that then I suggest that you turn off now and huge thank you for
sticking with me until the end.
Cheers.
Stupid c**ts turning off my f**king video.
F**ks I'll kill, I'll kill em all.
Anyway you guys get to live cos you kept watching but according to the Daniel it will be revealed
that the villains are the Intelligencia.
This is a group made up of the worlds smartest supervillains and we've seen a number of different
members over the years.
This includes Modok who we know will be popping up in Ant-Man Quantumania and it could end
up laying the foundation for what's coming in that movie next year.
However I also think that it might feature the leader who we saw the origins of all the
way back in the Incredible Hulk.
Now D23 confirmed that he will be coming back to the MCU and that the villain will appear
in the upcoming Captain America movie.
Titled New World Order this will see Sam Wilson facing off against some greater threats that
have arisen in the wake of the snap.
Tim Blake will reprise the role of the leader and he's a bit of a strange villain to have
Cap face off against.
Typically in comics he's a Hulk villain and I'm guessing that he will pop up too.
I think that this series will be the perfect place to have him pop up in and perhaps we
will get a post credits scene that teases his arrival before he shows up in the movie.
Abomination of course also popped up in the incredible hulk and he got brought back for
this so it makes sense to have the villain that was teased in that turn up for this.
Now we also have leaks that the rumoured World War Hulk film will feature lots of different
versions of Hulk characters.
Therefore I think it's gonna be more like World War Hulks with an S on the end.
This is a really underrated sequel that's looked over quite a lot and I think the graphic
novel for it might even be out of print now.
Pick it up digitally if you can but it basically centres around the Red Hulk and a new character
in the Red She Hulk.
The Leader is one of the main villains too and he's responsible for the creation of Red
She Hulk which would be a good advisery to have Jen face off against in the future.
This is eventually revealed to be Betty Ross and it would be awesome if they brought back
Liv Tyler too.
Unfortunately William Hurt passed away so we can't really get his Red Hulk unless they
fully CGI him and remove that but I dunno whether they would be willing to do it due
to showing respect to the dead actor.
Either way that's what the leaks are saying and let me know below what you wanna see in
the show.
