‘Ms Marvel’ Episode 6: How Kamala Khan Gets Her Ms. Marvel Suit In Season Finale Is So Wholesome!

SPOILER ALERT. We brown people have one big problem, hoarding. We legit hold onto all little things that we can including all old packaging material and whatnot, hai na? Now as funny (and sometimes annoying) as that is, it has its own perks. We’ve all seen our moms holding onto khaali dabbas, cartons, and of course, packets, growing up. And they do come in handy every now and then. Our new favourite Marvel series Ms Marvel has time and again given us a glimpse of brown culture including all the little funny habits that we all have including hoarding. In episode 5 we saw how Kamala Khan aka Ms Marvel’s grandma Sana has been hoarding milk toffees for her daughter Muneeba. But episode 6, the finale shows us how wholesome hoarding can sometimes feel. In the finale, Kamala’s mom Muneeba gives her, her iconic Ms Marvel costume and I must say, it’s got a very desi touch to it.

In the episode when Kamala Khan is ready to step out to save Kamran and Bruno after she finds out about the blast at Circle Q, her mom walks in and tells her that she cannot leave the house dressed like that and then goes on to present her, her Ms Marvel suit. Now, here’s what’s cute about this entire situation. Muneeba packs Kamala’s Ms Marvel suit in a box of, ICYMI, milk toffees. In short, not only did Muneeba carry an empty carton of milk toffees from Pakistan to the US but she also put it to some good use to pack Kamala’s Ms Marvel suit in it and gift it to her. Yepp! Isn’t that adorbs? And wholesome? Our moms have been doing this for ages and it’s always useful! GTG, have to keep that box that my parcel came in, in a safe place. Never know when I might need it to pack a gift!

Having said that, I’ll take a moment to also speak about the significance of Kamala Khan’s Ms Marvel suit. Every piece in Kamala’s costume has a meaning to it and that’s what makes this suit a little more special than the outfits of all other superheroes. In episode 3, Bruno made the mask for Kamala’s Ms Marvel suit and the Red Dagger aka Kareem gave Kamala the red scarf. The iconic lightning bolt on Kamala’s suit comes from her necklace (that spelt her name) that broke during her fight with the Djinn. And her suit which was a gift from her mother Muneeba is as cute as it can get. It’s not actually the same old tight-fitted spandex suit but instead, it’s a kurti with legging gifted by her oh-so-desi mom!
