The defining episode of Moon Knight and one of the best Marvel TV episodes to date. Tom has some high praise for the fifth episode of the show that offered a lot of background for Marc and Steven and some connections to the comics and the MCU.

In this week's Watcher Tom goes into what he loved about the depressing episode, Asylum. Why it worked so well and how it probably means the finale is set to disappoint even though there are still some tantalising questions to be answered.
