Arthur and Ammit's "Purification of Humanity" Plan

Having obtained Ammit's ushabti, Arthur transforms the scales staff into its significant power, and its effects now extend to cover over a large area.

Arthur goes to the Great Pyramids of Giza and kill the Avatars of the gods residing here, then resurrects Ammit in her original form and strength after more than 2,000 years later bond with the stone.

In fact, Arthur's scale is unbalanced, theoretically he should have been put to death; but Ammit spares Arthur and even chooses him as her Avatar for freeing her.

Their plan is that Arthur uses the Scepter to judge, purge and purify the people in Cairo, then expand to the whole world. Ammit will eat the souls of those whose scales are off balance.

The Help of Goddess Taweret

Taweret warns Marc that even if Marc-Steven's souls returned to the living world, the Marc's body remained dead with bullets inside; there would be no way out for them. The only solution is to free Konshu from the ushabti before their souls return.

Taweret enters a dead human in Cairo to inform Layla of the possibility that Marc/Steven will resurrect and that she needs to free Konshu first.

Later, Taweret also chooses Layla as her temporary) Avatar to support Konshu – Marc – Steven in the fight against Arthur – Ammit. Layla could become the first Egyptian Superhero in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.

Jake Lockley – Marc's Third Personality

Some previous episodes of Moon Knight have implicitly confirmed the existence of another Marc personality, Jake Lockley: Moon Knight murdered several people, but both Marc and Steven confirmed that it was not by themselves; in episode 5, there was another coffin with people inside - it was probably Jake.

In the course of the battle with Arthur, Moon Knight would have probably lost and had to accept death if Jake's personality did not rise and take over to change the situation.

Jake is an assassinating, cold, ruthless and more combative version of Marc.

At the end of the episode, Steven wakes up in bed, also with his legs tied to prevent sleepwalking; In the aquarium there are now two goldfish, one fin and two fins. He had known about Marc and found harmony with Marc, but he has not yet known Jake Lockley.

Marc and Steven broke off with Konshu, and refused to kill Arthur (who carries Ammit's soul now) because they didn't want their hands to get more blood. In the episode credits, it's Jake who in-hesitantly does it, with Konshu beside ... encouraging him.
