Moon Knight’s first two episodes have introduced us to two of the hero’s alternate personalities: soft-spoken gift shoppist Steven Grant and hard edged mercenary Marc Spector. But if you pay attention, there are actually three identities in the show. Marc would not have gotten a date with Steven’s co-worker, or killed his fish. So who is the third alter? We think it’s straight form the comics–cab driver Jake Lockley. Except, Jake may be far more violent and dangerous than anyone ever dreamed.

The first two episodes of moon knight have introduced us to two alter egos for the hero: lovable civilian Steven Grant [clip] And the other dark, brooding, assassin Marc Spector.

But, if you look closer at n the first 2 episodes, there’s numerous hints that we have actually been seeing 3 personalities, not 2. That’s right, there’s a hidden character and you missed all the clues. You know Marc and Steven, but we’ve already been introduced to Jake Lockley without knowing it.

So we’re going to break down all of the clues that you missed so far. First, there are a lot of symbols all having to do with the number three. Pyramids and triangles are a huge motif in this show.

Sure–but even the secret cut-out in Steven’s apartment wall was a triangle, with three sides. Every scene where Steven’s next to a mirror, he is surrounded by 3- The elevator, dressing for a date, and the museum bathroom. When Steven walks through the gallery, we have the trailer shot where he walks off and the reflections stay – but instead of one, there are 2 other reflections. Finally in the credits, Oscar Isaac has not two but three faces cut out.

But these aren’t the only hints. We’re just getting started.

First let’s go over what we know about Steven’s day to day life.

He starts off as our protagonist. He’s a sweet, quirky, caring awkward British guy fascinated with Egyptology, and wants to be a Museum tour guide.

He’s meant to lead a happy quiet life with his daily routine- feeding his fish, calling his mom, and going to work. But through his day, a lot of things just don’t add up.

Steven wakes up confused, feeds his lucky-finned fish Gus, and pins postcards sent by his mom. He tells her voicemail, indicating he hasn’t actually spoken to his mom recently.

While he’s at work as a Museum gift shop cashier, his tour guide coworker reminds himSteven has no memory of making a date–and even sounds surprised at the CHANCE to date her. Apparently he’s taking her to the best steak in town, but as his supervisor Donna asks [what’s a vegan gonna eat].

When doing inventory Donna mentions which seems a bit strange to me. If this is his daily routine to work, he should know the bus schedule by now. Donna calls him lazy–but he doesn’t really seem the type to slack off, considering he’s vying for the tour guide position. He’s friendly with the entire staff but the security guard keeps calling him Scotty.

After work, he mentions to the living statue that when sleeping, [body wants to move, wake up wherever] which could explain why he feels like he got hit by a bus when he wakes up in the morning. When he leaves, he says [see you on the flip flop] a clear nod to his switching identities.

We enter his dream in Germany which obviously shows the audience that Steven’s identity is only one facet of his being, especially when he hears Khonshu’s voice in his head saying [hand the body to Marc]–who is a more experienced fighter.

Steven wakes up in relief because, [alas twas only a dream]. Everything’s normal, until he sees Gus. [yesterday 1 fin, today 2 fins]. The clerk says he was there yesterday, which he wasn’t, and then–greatest tragedy of all he loses his weekend.

He comes home, finds a secret phone and keys hidden in his walls, and a man in the mirror saying. After getting chased by a demonic bird man, he just suddenly wakes up on a bus.

By the beginning of the second episode, Steven becomes aware that there is another identity inhabiting his body – Marc Spector. He sees a different version of his face in the security cameras and is willing to seek out help for his Dissociative Identity Disorder. So let’s talk about DID, so we can understand this hidden identity that we’ve been missing all along. [clip]
