She-Hulk: Episode 8:- She is Jennifer Walters (Tatiana Maslany) versus Matt Murdock (Charlie Cox) in the penultimate episode of Marvel’s She-Hulk. After the revelation that would-be fiancé Josh stole Jen’s gamma-rayed blood for the intelligence leader, the superheroine’s lawyer deals with a new case: Eugene Patilio (Brandon Stanley), aka Leap Frog. But when a conflict of interest is revealed involving his super suit tailor Luke Jacobson (Griffin Matthews), there’s an even bigger conflict of interest involving Hell’s Kitchen’s horn-headed hero: the vigilante. Daredevil.
On behalf of the Los Angeles-based law firm GLK & H, Jen represents Eugene / Leap Frog when the latter brings a lawsuit against Jacobson for manufacturing defect, negligence, strict liability, and breach of warranty following the malfunction of her custom frog suit. Jacobson hires New York attorney Matt Murdock, who asks the court to reject the request to produce the defendant’s client list as not relevant to the case. (And Matt, being one of Jacobson’s superhero clients, most of all wants to defend himself against this invasion of privacy.)
“The very nature of Mr. Jacobson’s work, which produces clothes exclusively for superheroes, requires anonymity. I remind you that the Sokovia agreements have been repealed, “said the blind lawyer in court. “We are not talking about celebrities, but about superheroes who have enemies who will try to harm them and those close to them. Those who have not asked to be part of this life ”.

And he concludes: “If this information is not protected, it would not only ruin my client’s career, but could endanger many people, and all due to the improper use of a suit by a man”.
Over a drink at the Legal Ease bar, Jen asks Matt why a New York lawyer flew to Los Angeles for a liability case. “Luke Jacobson made me a couple of new suits, so I owed him one,” explains Matt, secretly referring to his new red and yellow Daredevil suit.
Jen is called back for a supposedly urgent meeting with Todd Phelps (Jon Bass). “That disgusting tech brother with the She-Hulk fetish”. That he is facing a conflict with the African nation of Wakanda after purchasing an authentic Wakandian war spear at auction. Jen is recalled again when Leapfrog claims he was attacked on his way to his famous secret lair: The Waterlily.
She-Hulk destroys Daredevil, the costumed vigilante who attacks Leapfrog. She unmasks him as Matt, who explains that there was a misunderstanding. Leapfrog is the villain and Luke Jacobson will die if he doesn’t save Matt’s client from Jen’s. After a She-Hulk / Daredevil team-up complete with a corridor fight sequence. Leapfrog is arrested and Jen destroys Matt (this time, however, it’s another kind of destruction).
After Matt returns home to Hell’s Kitchen (returning to Daredevil: Born Again on Disney +), She-Hulk attends the Southern California Law Awards gala. But moments after receiving the award as the female lawyer of the year, the Intelligencia hijacks the event. By broadcasting her most intimate details about her, and an intimate video with Josh, to attendees, including her family and friends.

“This is the truth presented by Intelligencia,” says a distorted voice. “She-Hulk doesn’t deserve your attention. She doesn’t deserve your praise. She doesn’t deserve the power she stole from the Hulk “.
