Yelena clearly went out of her way to not kill Kate, she attached a line before throwing her off the roof. So I think Kate, whilst also listening to Clint’s ‘Shot he never took’ moment, was also giving Yelena a chance because she was spared seconds earlier. Yelena knows if she went after Clint in that moment Kate would shoot her.

[@Gzilla313]

Thank you. Not sure why other breakdowns seem to miss the part where Yelena took Kate out of the fight without killing her, so Kate returned the favor.

Also, I really liked that after the fight he was like "someone hired a black widow assassin". I feel like in a different show(especially CW) they would have been like "who is that?" Despite working alongside a black widow for 20 years. Even if he doesn't know exactly who it is. Also... they really seem to be playing up Jack's quirky side and also what seems like borderline hero worship. I do wonder if he will end up in the team as ronin alongside US agent and yelena.

She probably spoke German so her kids, who were right next to her, wouldn’t know what she was saying. Plus, the person the watch belongs to has a secret identity. The only person in the MCU who really had a secret identity is Spider-Man. Or they could be using this to set up Daredevil. I can see Matt Murdock having a Rolex maybe?

[@gamecrusade4783]

I think the reason Yelena didn’t just kill Clint while she had the drop on him was because she wanted to fight him and see if he would actually be capable of killing Natasha. She probably doesn’t believe the intel she got at the end of Blackwidow and wanted to confirm it in her own way.

[@k1llertoad]

I think next episode we will see kate finding out about her mom and jack, she will try to runaway to alert Clint, but will get captured by Yelena to be used as bait. While that's happening Echo will find and confront Clint, they will fight a little bit, she will find out that he's the ronin, but somehow it will also be revealed that it wasn't Clint who killed her dad it was Jack following orders from Kingpin. Episode 5 ends with Clint and Echo joining forced to go after Kate's mom, Jack and Yelena to save Kate. In the final episode Clint shows up wearing his costume to save Kate, he fights Yelena, Echo fights Jack and Kate fights her mom. In the end Clint will probably have a moment where he can kill Yelena but choses not to, and Yelena uses that to try and strike him down, but Kate's saves him by telling Yelena that story of how the most important arrow is the one he didn't shoot.

Maya had a lower coefficient of resistance when she crossed on the zip line.

13:57 robbin hooding an arrow is actually preatty easy. Most archers have to specifically aim in a different spot so they dont ruin their expensive ass arrows.

[@timogul]

Ok, now I'm REALLY hoping for the reveal that Jack is one of the founders of the NYC LARPers club.

[@Thedarkknight2244]

That wedding vows bit was a real good burn

[@QuintDunaway]

If Wilson Fisk shows up next week and Matt Murdock shows up in Spider-Man: No Way Home that means both Kingpin and Daredevil will return to the MCU in the same week. Is this why the first two episodes premiered on the same day? Either that or they wanted all the episodes out before Christmas. Probably the latter but I want to believe this.

[@djBlindFaith]

The week after Hawkeye finishes Book if Boba Fett starts… keeping people subbed to D+.

[@ragexriot9099]

If ur in the U.K. daredevil and Kingpin might return on the same day

[@ewanreilly2988]

I think it's more likely they want to keep a constant supply of Marvel and Star Wars shows running without having them running at the same time.

[@doctaflo]

12:02 - “i think they did it on a real New York tenement building” they did! can’t speak to the Florence Pugh shot in particular, but a friend of mine lives on the block where the rooftop scene was shot. think i remember him saying they put the tenants up in a hotel to keep them out of the way

[@deykuzor]

Wasn't the premise of the Flag Smashers in the MCU kinda in line with "Thanos was right" too?

[@djBlindFaith]

Kate’s Aunt is a flag smasher? 🤔

[@raviamodernepic]

I too loved the fox Maid Marian at one point

[@dumbedits1760]

Jack is a pawn here, but will go on to be the MCU Zorro and join the Avengers. Next week will be separate adventures: uncover madam mask / explain Nat death In the finale Hawkeye will face Echo and Kate will face her mom. Yelena will help. Fisk is mostly set up as powerful untouchable.

[@AqwDragulum]

Can't wait for Jack to use Santoryu techniques

[@billyberry8954]

I'll never get tired of the ongoing Maid Marian feud between James and Mason

[@theMylo]

I think kingpin will show up in the end credits of the final episode

[@RyBull]

More Mr. Sunday! (I saw the title when it still said Episode 3 instead of 4)

[@bigverb8744]

I was expecting to see corn of coblin… I’ve been disappointed for months!! Hopefully he’ll make his appearance in no way home.

[@JediFlip66]

BACK TO COBULA

[@jaustill237]

I saw it and he does.

[@vodkavecz]

I really liked Kate's and Clint's christmas bonding montage.

[@nova2512]

*Wasnt Laura speaking German not Russian?*

[@MatiProbably]

Came here to say this. 100% German.

[@swmark78]

They are Australian. They barely speak English. Give them a break for not knowing some foreign lingo.

[@philipculturesfilm5344]

Yelena shouting "VENOM, VENOM, VENOM, VENOMMMMMMMMM" whilst Tom Hardy farted (in character as Al Capone?) was actually quite overwhelming

[@yellowfamilyfunny3065]

I think that everyone is being fooled and its a misdirect, Maya's Uncle is Clint

[@Red_Oliver]

2:44 I am still assuming it is a key of some kind to unlocking the secrets of Iron Man tech and will be the McGuffin that starts Iron Wars.

[@RavenTheVelociraptor]

It was a good episode I recon. I like it quite a bit.

[@andersonwhite2539]

Another delightful day for a couple of big boys and their big boy big theories

[@jasethomas5198]

I like the theory that Laura Barton is actually Mockingbird, Hawkeye's wife from the comics. It also adds context to how Clint married her

[@markwicks7022]

For the record, in Canada we spell it "mom" but say it "mum." That said, love the videos!

[@AronGIsMe]

I might be an idiot, but I assumed that the Rolex was Tony's and it has some Iron Man tech in it (like in Civil War or What If Ep 5).

[@luhedi6303]

It was a safe assumption, I wouldn’t think that it was stupid to think that.

[@TopTwom]

Hawkeye seemed concerned that the owner's identity was tied to the watch. Everyone knows Stark is Iron Man and he's dead anyway. The assumption I have is that whoever the watch belongs to is someone who wishes to remain either unknown or at least out of a spotlight. Fisk or Murdock maybe?

[@k1llertoad]

I think Echo is probably going to change sides next episode or on the finale and help clint and kate, making it a 3 vs 3 fight (Clint, Kate, Echo vs Yelena, Swordsman and Kate's mom)

[@blaze556922]

I love Pugh but she looks nothing like the stunt doubles doing her moves physically. The person jumping and flipping through the air is very lean and Florence is staacked

[@markallen6284]

Also, about Kate's mom. In her standalone series from 2016-18, her mother is a major antagonist, works almost as Masque's lieutenant. Could do something clever there

[@ProffesorBleak]

Will Matt Murdock shows up next week to help Kate deal with the police? It would be pretty cool for him to pop up on TV and then in a couple of days, when Spider-man comes out, he could possibly makes the move to the BIG screen. Of course, this is not going to happen... but it would be cool if it did.

[@scottking8189]

Wow I haven’t heart the maid marriene (or however it’s spelt) bit in a while, a welcome return
