What If…?: 5 burning questions fans need answered from episode 7
By Mark Lynch
4. Will Howard the Duck and Darcy Lewis’ marriage last?
It wasn’t shocking that Darcy Lewis and Howard the Duck immediately started arguing. If this writer is being honest, it wasn’t surprising when they got married either. Darcy and Howard are both free spirits. Add alcohol, adrenaline, and the lack of inhibition that comes with being in Las Vegas, and it was bound to happen, right?
It’s to be assumed that most shotgun weddings in Las Vegas don’t last. Will this be the case? Not likely. Howard the Duck is adventurous and Darcy loves to learn. He could take her to planets and show her things she’d never see on Earth. Let’s also acknowledge that she wasn’t upset when Howard showed up. Maybe Party Thor created a match made in Valhalla.
3. What were Loki and Thor like as kids?
Odin’s decision to not raise Loki created this new reality. Among the major differences that resulted from that new reality was the fact that Loki and Thor actually became closer than they would have if they were raised together. It was sweet seeing that there’s a reality out there where the two of them actually liked, and maybe even loved, each other without the fights. It makes you wonder what they were like as kids.
What kind of shenanigans did they get up tp? There’s no way that Thor is the party animal he is and didn’t get Loki involved. Did they have sleepovers? Were the two of them a handful as teenagers? Was this a reality where Asgard and Jotunheim weren’t at war? What other things did we miss? This could be the biggest question of them all.
