What If…?: 5 burning questions fans need answered from episode 7
By Mark Lynch
What If…? debuted the anticipated Party Thor! After this entertaining episode, we’re still left with five questions we need answered.
After so many sad episodes of Marvel’s What If…?, fans needed a break. Something a little light-hearted after all the death and zombies that the Disney Plus show has given audiences in recent weeks. When you need entertainment and a boost of serotonin, who better to call on than Party Thor? And his arrival gave us all the episode we desired.
“What If… Thor Were An Only Child” showed us a world where Thor and Loki weren’t raised together. It’s funny seeing how much Thor actually needed Loki. Without the God of Mischief to humanize him, Thor parties a lot more and cares less about being king.
Although, Thor did seem to be more humble in this reality (even if that didn’t always come across). He didn’t need Odin to take away Mjolnir and his powers. Why was that? What made him more cooperative and understanding? That’s not all we need to know. Here are five other things to ponder.
What If…? Asgardians don’t get hangovers?
Admittedly, this is a very silly question. Nonetheless, this writer wants to know. After all the drinking, sweating from dancing, and surely lack of water, Thor, Sif, and the Warriors Three woke up seemingly fine. Thor even woke up ready to hit the next scene. All they needed was some food.
Is it the way they heal or their godly DNA that makes them impervious to hangovers? Or, are they so used to it that it doesn’t affect them anymore?
