During their conversation at the bar, Rhodey calls Nick Fury, Nick, which in Captain Marvel, as he clearly stated, nobody calls him.

[@drewalvarez8461]

yeah, I was getting Skrull vibes from the very particular wording of Rhodey. I don't think the Nick thing is anything because in the years after Captain Marvel we've seen Maria Hill and others call him Nick as well

Tell me something I don't know? I think what Telos did not tell Fury is the Skulls is a very warlike race that most likely started the conflict with the Kree and lost.

[@ObsessiveGeek]

Surrounded by green, but none on him. Suggestion of a deep undercover agent? Firing Fury definitely feels like a move by the renegade Skrulls to weaken their strongest opponent. I seriously doubt Rhodey has been captured for long though if it does turn out to be true.

[@time2rowco999]

Rhodey actually gave away that he was a skrull in that awesome conversation. He called him "Nick". Remember nobody calls him anything other than Fury, including his own mama.

[@midago7332]

I think Rhodes firing fury was his way of freeing fury up to work incognito, not directly an attack. He knows that fury will do what it takes but working outside of official Chanel’s is also safer for all.

I love how in that one scene that shows the 4 different dnas it takes from all corners of the mcu. It takes from recently both groot from earth and obsidians hand which was cut off. Then it goes further back into Ironman 3 in which extremus is being pulled back in. Really cool to see that they still can use old marvel content to really make the universe feel more connected by adding something that was used in 1 movie and not rementioned until now. Also the frost beast from Thor the dark world was an out of left field pick but amazing that they once again took something that was thrown away after a couple of movies and brought it back into the fold to make the universe feel bigger. Makes you think that each marvel movie is important and can be reference way later on and be put into the fold again.

[@Native_Creation]

Great scenes, the comment about not enough room for another species, really drives the point that Thanos made about limited resources, especially in the MCU where it seems Earth is always in some cosmic danger. Seems like it will continue to be an issue that reinforces Thano's point, of course they will have to find an alternative solution than wiping out half the universe. .

[@thekueken]

Fury said this after referring to his own experiences with segregations (riding the train in the color wagon as a kid). No, the not enough room isn't physical.

[@bshaddo]

Looks like the Skrulls learned how to replicate my mom’s station wagon from the ‘80s. I learned how to drive in a completely identical car.

I think Gaia might be working with Falsworth. Gaia takes off around back at the same time Falsworth goes into the tunnel and you don't see what happens right after that... Gravik also doesn't know how they knew about their safehouse the only person that could have been would be Gaia. So I think the might be working together either directly or through a third party.

Great job on the video Erik! Thanks for making it. I loved this episode. It was written so well.

[@M.Evra91]

Side note: if they cut their hair, does it revert to Skrull skin? Maybe that will be how they tell who's who in a later episode

[@rhodrage]

Same with clothes. Some skrulls seem to change clothes when they transform, so would their clothes revert if you took them off?

[@nathanfisher9794]

Presumably they wouldn't need hair cuts, they would just choose to keep their hair the same length

[@M.Evra91]

@@rhodrage I am guessing that the clothes can't be taken off. If its part of the transformation, it's probably attached to their body.

[@M.Evra91]

@@nathanfisher9794 I am saying, if you want to know if someone is a skrull, wouldn't you just ask them to cut a piece of their hair to see if it changes?

[@kramermariav]

​@@M.Evra91I was thinking about that too. Or like, a blood sample would revert to skrull blood

[@madnessarcade7447]

Tahiti was likely shut down after coulson and they no longer had the stuff to revive it and it’s been decades and they have moved on so it does make sense Also cobie wanted to leave clark gregg didn’t

[@ColorMeConfused29]

That's not what I read. Cobie knew of Maria's fate long ago, so it was pre-planned by Marvel.

[@madnessarcade7447]

@@ColorMeConfused29 maybe who knows

[@Retro_Red]

Didn't they destroy the remaining traces of Tahiti in AoS?

[@1eyeddevil929]

Do we need faith and money

[@domblue]

What a great episode. Erik, I think Fury mentioned that his wife kicked him out in Captain America winter soldier. It was a scene where he’s in Caps apartment. Of course it made it seem like he was just saying it because he knew the room was bugged. But I think he does mention a wife in that scene. Great job keep up the good work.

[@clarissar1528]

Yes, he does!!

[@Kiera_Spooky]

Oh, wow. That scene is 1000000x better now 🤯🤯🤯

[@ObsessiveGeek]

He’s talking in code. His “wife” is in reference to SHEILD. 🙄

[@ryanRosenblatt]

20:36 I think it was when Groot was wrapping Thanos in branches in Infinity Wars

[@aap112]

Really enjoying this so far, it's so refreshing compared what marvel have released lately. Obviously everyone on social media is quiet because this is actually good

[@jacobsims8307]

Agreed. I loved moon knight though.

[@newokstudios]

Eric! Are you serious?? RHODEY CALLED HIM NICK!! NOBODY CALLS HIM NICK!! NOT EVEN HIS MAMA!! C’MON SON!!

[@newokstudios]

@@Babylonian-Cowboy or, hear me out…OR! They were ALL SKRULLS !

[@iamalwayscheckedinchess2206]

"Gravik is the SENATE!" cracked me up good. F*cking Erik nailed it. 🤣

[@queensensitivity1]

Thank you! This was amazing

[@Estorius]

19:55 - that might be Boris Yeltsin on the wall

[@RirtyDascal]

09:57 How can you not mention Eric Cartman being a damned Skrull?! He's probably the most dangerous one.

[@user-ob2pz5co6h]

Thanks for this I was a bit confused and overwhelm after episode 2 and resorted to here to fill in the gaps

[@samuelbasco8115]

I’m bout to start taking my wedding ring off so my enemies don’t go out looking for my wife😂

[@hqi4741]

19:55 you guys don’t know Boris Yeltsin?

[@cmorris9494]

He might be too young

[@Anonymous2.2]

Who?

[@ColorMeConfused29]

Sometimes I think they try too hard to be clever. Like, digging deep to find some semi-obscure Russian that the portrait could be instead of the obvious Yeltsin.

[@gazwilliams-nc7jp]

Who's to say Rhodey was only recently replaced with a scrull? He doesn't have to have been a scrull the whole time for him to be a scrull

[@christinlawrence1903]

Good point I didn’t think of that

[@THELIFEOFVIEWS1]

The acting is phenomenal

[@Anonymous2.2]

Rhodey seemed off but that’s just me

[@rjohn171987]

So after Endgame Rhodie was captured by Gravik. It does make sense, the Rhodie in Falcon and Winter Soldier is a Skrull till now..hmmm..

[@outletboy]

Watching it right now, I'll come back to this review shortly 😂

[@conniedickman498]

you are amazing for having this up literally JUST watched the episode and i GOTSTA KNOW THE DEETS

[@whothehale378]

the bread crumb for roadie in the scene where him and fury are talking is that exit sign in the background when it pans out looks like its pointing too him plus its green could be a skrull!

[@vuxluongw]

Rhodes could have been kidnapped post Falcon and the Winter Soldier, or even post Endgame. still a lot of possibilities, one does not have to be a Skrull THE ENTIRE TIME

[@ObsessiveGeek]

Exactly

[@child_warlord]

I took the last scene as; he's married to a skrull and doesnt even know it

[@BretMuckdogs]

Thank you Erik!

[@riqqskii]

Lol @23:53 you can see E Voss in the house window😂

[@nicholasgarrick8855]

Fury knows how to use skrulls best way possible 😂😂😂.

[@CJ-hg2yh]

Rhodey and agent Ross both could have just recently been captured. Their characters are slightly off and it could be that the scrulls just recently kidnap them. Gravik or Giah Said that the scrulls stay in human form to better assimilate to being human so maybe they just haven't been those 2 very long.

[@manstersays]

"I am Nick Fury. Even when I'm out, I'm in" - Probably one of the coldest lines in the MCU!🥶 Fu*kin' loved it.

[@relld05]

Yea that conversation between Rhodey and Fury was one of my favorite scenes in the MCU

[@DaveMaguire]

Samuel L Jackson had me in awe. His acting is on another level in this series.

[@FibonacciMan42]

That might not be him acting though... he could be a Skrull
