She-Hulk Episode 6 Although last week’s episode of She-Hulk: Attorney at Law ended on a lingering shot of Daredevil’s new (yellow!) helmet, Matt Murdock is nowhere to be found in this week’s installment.

The following contains spoilers for Resident Alien. Though Resident Alien introduced an alien baby earlier this spring before the series went on its midseason hiatus and dropped an even bigger twist several episodes ago by revealing the child is Harry’s literal offspring (thanks, time travel!), neither our titular alien nor the show he stars in
