The Watcher is the pivotal character of Marvel Animation’s What If…? bound by a strict non-interference policy in the alternate universes and the multiverse. However, Uatu has repeatedly defied this rule, and the consequences of his actions have finally caught up with him in Season 3, setting the stage for a dramatic reckoning.

The events of Episode 6, where Uatu intervened in a Wild West team-up between Shang-Chi and Kate Bishop, proved to be the final straw. This pivotal moment sets the stage for Episode 7, the penultimate installment of Season 3.

Captain Carter Attempts to Save Uatu

Champion of Hydra is invading Xandar in the opening scene of What If…? Season 3 Episode 7, and we witness Korg, Nebula, and Groot together, who decide it would be best if they evacuate the planet.

However, before they can make any move, Captain Carter, Kahhori, Byrdie, and Storm show up, in the most badass manner possible, especially Storm who wields Thor’s hammer in this universe. We were just as confused as Korg.

As Peggy prepares to greet her allies, she notices shards from the Observational Plane, indicating that The Watcher, Uatu, is in trouble. In a departure from the norm, The Eminence takes over the narration, revealing how The Watcher’s misguided intervention transformed her into a formidable threat after he enlisted her help in meddling with the Multiverse.

Uatu is finally revealed, shackled and facing the judgmental gaze of The Watchers. They condemn him for repeatedly intervening in the Multiverse, posing a threat to their own world. The Watchers issue a stern warning: if Peggy and her allies attempt to rescue Uatu, he will bear the consequences of his actions, as well as theirs.
