Moon Knight Series Plot
Moon Knight is a Marvel Studios series that centers around Marc Spector, a man with dissociative identity disorder (DID) who operates under several different personas , including Moon Knight, Mr. Knight, and Steven Grant. The series follows Marc as he balances his personal life and mental health struggles with his duties as a superhero, fighting crime and supernatural forces in New York City. The show's story arc involves a mystery surrounding an archaeological dig in Egypt, which leads to the awakening of an ancient deity named Khonshu. As the series progresses, Marc is drawn deeper into the mystery and involved in an escalating conflict with antagonistic forces who seek to harness Khonshu's power for their own gain. Along the way, Marc partners with other characters, including the archaeologist Layla, to solve the mystery and save the day.
Moon Knight Ending Explained
The ending of Moon Knight involves the defeat of Arthur Harrow, the main antagonist, and the formation of a new superhero team. Marc Spector, the titular character, along with Steven Grant and Layla, work together to defeat Harrow and his army of mercenaries. They are able to defeat Harrow by combining their unique abilities - Moon Knight's strength and agility, Mr. Knight's expertise in technology and espionage, and Layla's new powers as the avatar of the goddess Taweret. After the battle, Marc and Layla seal Harrow away in a tomb to prevent him from causing any more harm. The ending sets up the possibility of a sequel or a spin-off series, as the trio hints that they will continue to work together as a team, with the third alter-ego (Jedidiah) suggesting that audiences have not seen the last of him.
Moon Knight Post Credit Scene
There are actually two post-credit scenes in Moon Knight, one at the end of episode 6 and another at the end of episode 7. The post-credit scene in episode 6 shows Arthur Harrow in a mental facility, only to be brought out to a limousine where Khonshu is waiting. Khonshu reveals to Harrow that they are going to help each other, suggesting that Harrow may still have a role to play in future storylines.
The post-credit scene in episode 7 takes viewers to a different, more realistic psychiatric hospital than the one seen in Marc Spector's visions. Here we see a very Oscar Isaac-sounding man in black leather entering the hospital and asking for Jake. It is implied that this is a reference to another alter-ego of Moon Knight and may hint at future storylines involving that character.

In the comics, Moon Knight's costume is all white because it serves as a visual symbol of his connection to the Egyptian god Khonshu, who he believes gave him his power. Additionally, the white costume helps him blend into the shadows and gives him an element of surprise in his tactics.
