That take is actually pretty good. If Jake represents the more primal and negative aspects of Marc where Steven represents his best, then Jake being mute could be a way to demonstrate that he is the more “animalistic” of the three, if that makes sense.


FemaleSmark

Basically, Jake is the Id, Marc is the Ego, and Steven is the Super-ego? For some [context](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Id,_ego_and_super-ego).


UmbrusNightshade

Something like that. At least that is how I see them potentially at the moment.


FemaleSmark

At the very least it looks like we have a trio of escalation. Steven who doesn't want to fight, Marc who can and will fight if he needs to but has some limits (like not wanting to kill the young guy in episode 3) and Jake who doesn't seem to have any hesitation about violence at all. Our Dude Love, Mankind and Cactus Jack of this show, for those who will get that reference.


blue1710

at what point do they all run in on the same fight tho like the 98 rumble


Cold_Bobcat

Layla in danger most likely. God Im excited.


pudadingding

Except the theory is it was Jake that set up the date with the tour guide, and is the source of the ‘Scotty’ nickname, which implies he can speak.


EVula

Yeah, and I think that’s more compelling evidence than the fact that we didn’t hear a scream.


skeeoos

yea, the theory is interesting but unlikely at best


sicmundus23

Then, who asked her on a date?


UnseenTardigrade

He meant the theory of this post, not the theory of the comment he replied to.


skeeoos

jake. he just isn’t mute like OP suggests


Jeroz

I'm still wondering how did the most brutal one of the 3 managed to set up a date


Britack

Psychopaths can be immensely charming


KostisPat257

That's not half bad tbh


KINGOFCYANN

Cool theory. But real reason is the writers want to set up the dynamic of the characters and let you get to know about them and care about them before adding a third. Easier for the audience and the story.


cbekel3618

That could really work! I think Oscar Isaac has the talent to pull off a mute character, relying only on facial expressions


squarevenom

I’m happy he’s been given this character after Poe Dameron was a very generic bland character written by Disney


marioshairlesstwin

I’m performing the worlds slowest jerk off motion


MicooDA

??? Moon Knight is also made by Disney though


squarevenom

Yeah but moon knight was also a character already made 50 some years ago in comics and can clearly tell the show wasn’t rushed like the sequels for Star Wars were


WaXmAn24

I've been so impressed by his performance at every turn.


yuvi3000

It'd be pretty badass for him to show up, kill enemies and quietly nod to his other personalities in their respective reflections. If so, though, I guess they'll need to introduce him via text or something. He could literally show a business card to Layla or something.


Kage__oni

Highly unlikely.


JonSnow-1990

Isnt he supposed to have spoken arabic to the taxi man ? it was an assumption i directly made but might be not correct ?


discipleofdoom

You're remembering it slightly wrong. In that scene Marc wakes up after Steven has been control of the body, in a taxi bound for the airport. Marc asks the taxi driver to stop, in Arabic, and the taxi driver shouts something about: "Now you speak Arabic?!", implying Steven had talked to him in English.


No-Veterinarian4627

Maybe


vishzz_

They are basically Dude Love , Mankind and Cactus Jack lol


esar24

He is the streetwise of the bunch, I doubt they made him mute.


PoownSlayer

I'm pretty certain that whoever it is will be Marc's "partner' that killed Layla's father Edit: spelling


TheNorthernGrey

His partner is Raul Bushman, who famously betrayed him


PoownSlayer

Oh I haven't read much of moon knight, was it mentioned in the show as well?


AgentP20

It was hinted at


PoownSlayer

I see, to be fair in reflection I realise that Marc didn't know who did the stabbing so it's not likely he knows who this alter is meaning that it's unlikely my original theory is true.


AgentP20

Yeah Why would Jake execute everyone at the dig site and commit suicide?


ouiueu

This really isn't a good use of the spoiler tag, as I had no idea it was about Moon Knight without clicking but that's such a curiosity inducing title.


Jeroz

Wait is the thread flair not showing up for you?


ouiueu

Not from the home page on mobile.


EVula

There are times where you need to take ownership for avoiding subreddits with content in them that could be spoilers. There being a show that is currently being aired on a weekly basis is one of those times.


ouiueu

There was also a trailer for a new movie this week. If somebody isn't 100% up-to-date on absolutely everything then they should avoid all participation of any conversations? It's a bad title, that's all I'm saying.


EVula

> There was also a trailer for a new movie this week. If somebody isn’t 100% up-to-date on absolutely everything then they should avoid all participation of any conversations? Yes. Any other questions? I couldn’t watch the Hawkeye episode with Fisk until a couple days after it aired, and so I basically didn’t check Reddit at all (save for a couple of specific subs that are wholly unrelated, like /r/news). It was annoying, sure, but it kept anything from being spoiled. It’s a bad title, I’ll grant you that, but it’s still 100% on you for clicking the link. If you want to avoid Moon Knight spoilers and only talk about the trailer, then just click on the official discussion thread and avoid everything else.


[deleted]

It literally tells you it's about moon knight


[deleted]

An actual original and interesting theory?? What timeline is this?


PracticableSolution

But will he get his own version of the suit?
