Quotes 

• Marc Spector : What the hell are you?

  Khonshu : I am the god Khonshu, in search of a warrior.

  Marc Spector : A warrior. Well, good luck with that.

  Khonshu : To be my hands, my eyes, my vengeance. To be my final words against the evildoers. To bind your very being to me and eradicate only the worst, those who deserve it. Do you want death or do you want life?

  Marc Spector : I don't know.

  Khonshu : Your mind, I feel it. Fractured. Broken. Most fascinating. You are a worthy candidate to serve me during this time. In exchange for your life, do you swear to protect the travelers of the night and bring my vengeance to those who would do them harm?

  Marc Spector : ...Yes.

  Khonshu : Then rise. Rise, and live again! As my fist of vengeance! As my Moon Knight!

• Tawaret : I actually... I have... Hold on a sec. It's been a minute since we've had a soul pass through here.

  [retrieves and unfurls a scroll] 

  Tawaret : Bit distracted... Excuse me. A-ha! Okay, here we go.

  [reading from scroll] 

  Tawaret : Welcome, gentle traveler... Travelers, to the realm of the Duat.

  Steven Grant : Duat? The Egyptian underworld. This is Taweret, goddess of women and children...

  Marc Spector : Uh-huh.

  Steven Grant : ...and she's guiding us through our journey to the afterlife. Wow.

  Marc Spector : Okay. Right. So, this... this is the afterlife? THE afterlife?

  Tawaret : AN afterlife, not the afterlife. You'd be surprised how many intersectional planes of untethered consciousness exist.

  Marc Spector : Yeah.

  Tawaret : [gasps]  Like the Ancestral Plane! Oh, just gorgeous! Anyway.

  [Marc buries his face in his hands] 

  Tawaret : I do actually do have cards for all this if you just wait, and... I'm sorry.

  [sifts through the cards, tossing many away] 

  Tawaret : Wait... Bye.

  [gasps softly] 

  Tawaret : Okay, so... Because the Duat's true nature is impossible for the human mind to comprehend...

  Steven Grant : Right.

  Tawaret : You may perceive this realm as something more easily recognizable to you.

  Marc Spector : Uh-huh.

  Tawaret : A psych ward's a first for me, but, hey, we can roll with it, right?

  Steven Grant : Um, why would we imagine this realm to be a psychiatric hospital?

  Marc Spector : Because we're insane. We're insane, Steven.

  [begins walking away in exasperation] 

  Marc Spector : This talking hippo, talking dead bird, you're outside of my body now. And now the afterlife, right? That's the reality and this...

  Steven Grant : But Marc, Marc.

  Marc Spector : The hospital. That's the... imagination.

  Marc Spector : [to Taweret]  Sorry, he's...

  Marc Spector : Oh. man. Dr. Harrow's right.

  Steven Grant : Dr. Harrow?

  Marc Spector : This is an organizing principle.

  Steven Grant : Is he a doctor now?

  Marc Spector : I'll prove it to you. So, like, right through these doors, for example, we go through here, there's gonna be a bunch of patients...

  Steven Grant : Marc?

  Marc Spector : ...and there's Crawley probably about to yell bingooooo-oh, my God!

  [Marc has opened the door to reveal that the hospital is on a boat sailing through the sands of the Duat] 

  Marc Spector : Oh, my God!

• Steven Grant : Taweret, what's happening?

  Tawaret : I've never seen the gates to the world above so close.

  Marc Spector : How do we open them?

  Tawaret : I'm so sorry. Your Scales never balanced. Our journey's come to an end. I cannot stop the inevitable. I was really rooting for you guys, but the unbalanced souls of the Duat now must claim yours.

• Steven Grant : Whenever danger is near, Steven Grant has no fear.

• Marc Spector : You're not a doctor.

  Arthur Harrow : I--I feel real. I feel like a real doctor.
