I don't understand what would motivate Zelma to help Parker. More generally, I feel this end credits scene doesn't spur interest.
Additionally, I keep seeing definiteness regarding Riri taking the deal. But if that's the case, why didn't they show her shake Mephisto's hand?
Overall, I think the show didn't meet my expectations. It's just a little better than Secret Invasion. It had its moments.
S1:E1
1: Watched first episode at lunch today. It was alright. Seemed like an implausible situation but sure. The ending had an interesting twist

S1:E2
1b: this meeting of the bad guys is underwhelming. like forced jokes
1b: true. how does she have memories. maybe there was something from first episode I forgot. a power outage or something?
1b: hehe crying
1b: but like... she's just gonna take the stuff? not like pay for it?
1b: how does he afford all this?
1b: That exit was pretty cool but maybe almost too cool. Like the door would be very narrow. But why would the door have been open.
1b: If they infiltrate a place like that... they'll surely be identified though. I feel they could go on the run but they couldn't hide.
1b: I didn't understand and had to rewind. The shot came from the car behind her. [oh, letting it play out we soon see who made the shot]
1b: I thought it would have been more scarring if the security guard died. but he was just wounded
1b: aww... I didn't see that coming. that her mom would like ask an AI of Gary. no feeling of tear rush, maybe like a near feeling. It did remind me of a moment I had yesterday for Encanto

S1:E3
1: She pretty much wants out. But that's typically not how these things work. Wonder how that's gonna play out
1: She's upfront and talking about it
1: He theoretically gives her an out here? Or maybe he knows she wants the money
1: Chuckle. "Thanks for teaching me to stand up for myself"
1: She's talking with Natalie outdoors. Her intentions were good, getting money for the suit. She earlier explicitly said she was an engineer not a criminal. But maybe... she should have applied for funds. Or interestingly... why didn't the Wakandas support her work?
1: Yikes. He went crazy looking to install something in his arm. That cut looks nasty.
1: Haha. Just casually vacuums some of it. Oh. He's dumping the vacuumed ash back
1: Oh, it's revealed how he has money.
1: Huh. This plan to get part of the cloak is crazy
1: Damn. She's still trying to get some cloak.
1: Huh. She left him there.
1: While it is Riri's fault that she triggered the CO2, I don't see how the events between Parker and the owner would have gone differently. The owner refused and I think Parker would have killed him anyways. And maybe... well maybe the crew would have lived. But... his cousin had not wanted to do the job due to exactly the lack of leverage they discovered. So really I think Parker should blame himself [also, she wanted out, but he forced her to stay]
1: Parker is here being mad at the cloak. And blaming himself.
1: Hmm. I liked the first half of the episode but not the second half. Particularly, the crew is kind of cookie cutter. They all seem replaceable.

S1:E4
1: If I were her I would just sleep inside the suit.
1: Smile. She's sleeping in the suit.
1: Chuckle. Busted down the door like the Kool-Aid man
1: hehe parallel plane
1: Hmm... they were just worried about it... but it seems... how strange
1: Smile. "Check the mat Ri"
1: Silly that there's a retinal scanner but also a spare key... cause why. well I guess if the power goes out
1: She's going to go get her brother Xavier?
1: He seems taller than her yet he fit inside the suit.
1: He is taller by like 3 to 4 inches
1: Hmm... Drama. Like for reals. Riri wanted to delete Natalie but Natalie didn't want it
1: Oh no. Change in Admin
1: Oh man... Ezekiel... I didn't expect him to go bad given his principals in the other episode. I suppose Riri could help hack him back.

S1:E5
1: Unbelievable. The two fight club muscleheads of the group are going to have trouble fighting Riri? [A comment on Reddit said similarly: "Very unrealistic that Riri could fight the Blood siblings without her suit."
1: The use of the bubble is pretty cool
1: How is running straight down the street the sensible thing to do?
1: The suit coming out and the reversal is cool
1: Hehe. the remaining letters on the White Castle sign she crashed read "ouch!"
1: Oh wow. Zeke is letting her live
1: Damn... This is episode 5. She has to ditch the suit. What can be left
1: This moment with Riri apologizing to Natalie had me welling up
1: Hmm. Why would Clown have a change of heart here to cover for Zeke?
1: Oh right. Riri told Clown that Parker had the other guy killed
1: Smile. Young Man we think of Xavier but it's the little kid
1: Is she making another suit or like a super car
1: hehe Ezekiel apologizing as he takes people out
1: huh. He's been collecting companies that belong to this guy... why?
1: The reveal.
1: I'm curious. Contracts sign under duress like this can't be legal. [while I'm not a lawyer, a brief Google search suggests that such contracts would be null and void, but typically you'd have to report and perhaps prove the threat]
1: Cool suit. But doubtful such parts can exist in a car. Just like... suspend disbelief
1: hehe. I guess I didn't write it but I guess most people would guess that would be the cost

S1E6
1: Computer 101. Always make a backup
1: Sasha Baron Cohen.
1: Chuckle. "Like a modern day Shakespeare. He was also a twat"
1: Hehe. His dad was right.
1: Huh. that was her plan?
1: Oh sweet
1: I hope Doctor Strange makes an appearance
1: oh no.
1: I feel like Xavier's words would be strong here. But also something about Natalie
1: He calls himself. Mephisto
1: She won't do it. It's a shitty development overall but... she fits the trope of not doing it
1: Hmm. The show left it ambiguous. Lame.
1: Hmm. Lame. Parker and Zelma
