Aside from a SHAZAM!-ish montage of Kamala Khan (Iman Vellani) testing out her powers and the mixed results of a late save attempt, the second episode of Ms. Marvel continues to keep the focus on , her friends, and her family. Kamala convinces Nakia (Yasmeen Fletcher) to run for an election at the temple and, in her attempt to earn the vote of Kamal’s father (Mohan Kapur) we discover why you don’t want to get on her bad side. We get a potential love interest with a new boy at school (Rish Shah), although there are plenty of hints throughout there is more to him than what he seems which will confirmed in the cliffhanger ending as he saves Kamala from the creepy government agency who attacks her for daring to attempt to save a young boy in trouble (did Captain America have to put up with this?).

While Kwan discovers she can’t really go home again and the revolution she hoped to rejoin is dead, John makes some discoveries in returning to his childhood home as he leads Dr. Halsey (Natascha McElhone) to the larger artifact. While the artifact is the big find, John’s discovery of meeting Halsey before his parents’ death, something the doctor inelegantly sidesteps when it’s brought up, suggests there is much more hidden about John’s past than has so far been revealed. As for Kwan, that storyline continues to spin its wheels, although hopefully Makee‘s (Charlie Murphy) eventual arrival on Madrigal might help.
