"Whose Show is This?" is the final episode of the first season of the Disney+ streaming television series She-Hulk: Attorney at Law and was released on October 13, 2022. It was written by showrunner Jessica Gao and directed by Kat Coiro.
Synopsis[]
Jen finds herself in trouble with the law and struggles to pick up the pieces of her life.
Plot[]
Walters is released from DODC custody, but is forced to wear an inhibitor to prevent her from transforming, as part of her plea deal. Being unable to be She-Hulk, Jen loses her job at GLK&H and moves back in with her parents.
Jen decides to go to Blonsky's retreat to seek advice, after failing to gather information on Intelligencia and the HulkKing.
Meanwhile, Nikki uses the Intelligencia account she made in Just Jen to upload a video she got from Jennifer's mother of Jennifer from college, which has her receive an invite from the HulkKing to join a private gathering. Realising Intelligencia is expecting a man to be there, Nikki asks Pug to infiltrate the event.
Pug attends the gathering, which also takes place at Blonsky's retreat, and learns that Todd Phelps is the HulkKing. Walters arrives at the retreat and stumbles upon the gathering. Blonsky is also present in his Abomination form, acting as a motivational speaker, though oblivious to Intelligencia's true goals.
Walters confronts Phelps, who injects himself with a substance containing her blood, turning himself into a Hulk. A fight ensues, as Titania and Bruce also join in unexpectedly.
As Jennifer expresses bafflement about what is happening in the episode, the show cuts to the Disney+ menu screen, but Jen is still heard. She takes off her inhibitor and literally breaks the fourth wall, climbing through the Disney+ interface and jumping into Marvel Studios. Upon her arrival, Jen confronts the writers of the show about how the episode is going, but they explain that it's the formula that K.E.V.I.N. wants. After going through security, Jen then meets K.E.V.I.N., an artificial intelligence claiming to be in charge of all Marvel Cinematic Universe storyline decisions. Walters persuades K.E.V.I.N. to rewrite the climax of the episode (while also bringing back Daredevil, and asking when the X-Men will be appearing), to which it reluctantly agrees.
Upon returning to the show, Walters finds that Phelps and Blonsky have been arrested, and Daredevil suddenly appears to help. Walters returns home to celebrate with her family and Matt Murdock, with Bruce returning from Sakaar with his son Skaar. Some time later, having regained her job, Walters attends her court case against Phelps, and vows to continue her work as both a lawyer and a superhero.
In a mid-credit scene, Wong breaks Blonsky out of prison and takes him to Kamar-Taj.

Trivia[]
- The episode opens with a shot-for-shot parody of the intro for the 1977 Incredible Hulk series, with She-Hulk's on-set reference actress, Malia Arrayah, playing the "savage" She-Hulk.
- K.E.V.I.N., the AI running Marvel Studios, is a parody of Marvel Studios producer Kevin Feige.
- Part of K.E.V.I.N. resembles a baseball cap, which Kevin Feige is known to wear.
- Originally, K.E.V.I.N. was planned to be wearing an actual baseball cap, but Kevin Feige questioned why they would be wearing a hat, so the design was changed so that a lens protector and part of the machine's housing evoked the shape of a cap instead.
- Part of K.E.V.I.N. resembles a baseball cap, which Kevin Feige is known to wear.
- At one point, K.E.V.I.N was planned to be an actual person, played by either George Clooney, Jon Hamm, or another traditionally handsome leading male actor.
- Show creator, executive producer, and writer Jessica Gao and writer Cody Ziglar appear in the writers' room; however, they do not play themselves.
- Jen heading to Marvel Studios to talk to the writers is possibly inspired by Issue 51 of The Sensational She-Hulk comic, which features Jennifer going to the Marvel offices to discuss her issue.
- When K.E.V.I.N. says the visual effects team are working on another project, the Black Panther theme can be heard.
- The scene at the end mirrors the finale of The Falcon and The Winter Soldier, where Bucky joined Sam and his family for a picnic.
Errors[]
- Bruce introduces his son, but in Avengers: Age of Ultron, he told Natasha that he couldn't have kids. Granted, that could be due to concern about him transforming into the Hulk while in the middle of coitus, as shown in the 2008 Incredible Hulk film, while Bruce was in Hulk form for most his time on Sakaar.
