Disney+'s 'She-Hulk: Attorney At Law' Episode 1 Breakdown

Off to a flying start already (hehe Titania), Disney+’s She-Hulk: Attorney At Law has managed to gain a fandom based on its impeccable humor and incredible storyline. So much so, that while people haven’t forgotten about the bad CGI, they’re more excited for what the show can bring this season. However, it cannot be a Marvel project without already teasing some things about the future of the MCU, ScreenRant reported.

The Opening

We see our protagonist Jennifer Walters (Tatiana Maslany) deliver a killer closing argument in the practice she was doing for court that day and by the end, her best friend Nikki (Ginger Gonzaga) teases that she could just hulk out in the courtroom as a distraction. Walters realizes that there should probably be an explanation for this Hulk situation, which is when she breaks the fourth wall (a current trend with Deadpool and Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness) and starts telling the audience about how she turned into the She-Hulk.

The Road Trip

In this flashback, we see Walters and her cousin Bruce Banner aka The Hulk (Mark Ruffalo) go on a road trip where they are just catching up when we see Bruce explain how he keeps his normal human form instead of the large ‘Smart Hulk’ form. They are just eating Cheetos with chopsticks (a la Oscar Isaac) when they come across a Sakaaran spaceship (possible tease to more Bruce Banner content?) that causes Walters to swerve hard and crash on the ground. As they both bleed, Bruce’s blood gets into Walter’s veins turning her into She-Hulk.

She is overwhelmed with her appearance and her power. So when he des get angry she loses control however that lack of control is unlike anything Bruce has ever seen. She passes out multiple times waking up only in her human form. 

Mexico

When she wakes up she finds that she’s in Mexico in the lab Tony Stark (Robert Downey Jr.) built for Bruce. This is what we hear of in Avengers: Endgame when Bruce talks about merging his two forms. The lab is also built as an homage to Tony Stark, with their names carved out in the wood of the Bar. 

This is the place where Walters starts to get some bearing on her situation and starts training with her cousin to understand her powers better. She is not convinced of saving the world through her powers, even though the parallel between the speech at the beginning and her decision to not help people seem contradictory. 

Titania

Our first look at Titania (Jameela Jamil) comes when she barrages into the courtroom just in time for Jessica Walter’s killer closing argument. However, Nikki coaxes Walters to Hulk out and defeat Titania which does happen. Titania is seemingly taken by the cops while Walters prepares to give her closing argument. Titania probably did this on purpose to reveal Walters’ She-Hulk identity to the real world inviting some devastating consequences. The episode ends here with so much more in store for the character.

But Wait! Captain America

Yes, the infamous story that Captain America (Chris Evans) never lost his virginity and therefore died a virgin. While Walters may not have liked that element, commenting especially on his “ass”, a continuation from Ant-Man’s declaration in Avengers: Endgame, Bruce reveals that Steve Rogers did lose his virginity on the USO tour in 1943 before he went on the front lines. This piece of information was so thrilling to Jennifer Walters that she declares that “Captain America f-” before the camera cuts her off. 

Even Chris Evans decided to get in on the joke and tweet with the hashtag #SheHulk.

She-Hulk is now streaming on Disney+.
