DAUGHTER of KINGPIN??? And I'm low-key rooting for her??? | Hawkeye REACTION | Monica Catapusan 

Fun Fact: The young actress who plays Maya/Echo is actually the older actress' cousin. Definitely perfect casting.

So in the mcu, they changed her backstory a little bit by having her dad be apart of the tracksuit mafia and getting killed by ronin. Her “uncle” is kingpin who is now her boss.

I am so glad that who responsible for casting Echo, chose the perfect actor. Alaqua Cox was born Deaf to Elena and Bill Cox. She was born and raised in the Menominee Indian Reservation in Keshena, Wisconsin and is of the Menominee and Mohican nation. She has three siblings: Will, Jordan and Katie. She attended the Wisconsin School for the Deaf and played on the girl’s basketball team from 2014 to 2015 in addition to taking part in their volleyball team.

I love how that although Kate is skilled and well trained, she would be dead without Hawkeye due to her recklessness and overconfidence. Love their dynamic.

The man who died was Maya/Echo’s Dad. “Uncle” is Kingpin.

Kate refusing to let Clint tell her he isn't a role model 🥺🥺🥺

If you listen to her dad at the beginning he told maya (echo) that they could afford a school for the deaf, but then couldn't send her. Then when Hawkeye (Ronin) killed him he was wearing a red tracksuit. So somewhere along the way Wilson Fisk (kingpin) got involved with him and promised him money. If you look at the sign as Maya is pulling up to her dads Garage the sign in back says "fat man Garage". That scene where Mayas dad gets killed we see the motivation for why she wants Ronin.

You ears are essential for balance, but it has nothing to do with hearing, you can be deaf and still have perfect balance. The two senses are just placed togather in one organ but they function relatively indipedent. Clint is fully deaf on his other ear, it was hinted at in trhe second episode when he changed the side of cate on which he walked, in order to hear her.

In the MCU Kingpin is Maya's aka Echo's uncle...her father was wearing a tracksuit at the dojo.

This is one of my favorite episodes so far we got action, back story, and all the emotions... I can't deal love it and ASL I'm so glad I started taking classes when I became mom.. I feel Clint as mood the older I get

Echo's dad was wearing a tracksuit at the Dojo.

maya can mimic anyones physical movements, but she’s self taught while taskmaster on the other hand uses more technology and other advances which is the main difference between the two, and the handprint is a nod to her signature look from the comics which she refers to as her fathers last echo 🥲

8:07 The hearing part of the ears and the equilibrium part of the ears are two seperate mechanisms. There's no overlap so Clint's fine in that regard. ;)

Also I like to point out that welcome Echo who is our first Native American character to the MCU

I think Maya and Kazi grewed up together. He's the kid who lost first to the top student in the dojo. I think most of the Tracksuits are Polish along with Kazi. Maybe Kingpin loansharked them into making a group? I'm so excited to have the debut of Echo.

Zahn Mclarnon (Echo’s father, the good parent) is an amazing Lakota actor who stared in Longmire, The Forever Purge, Reservation Dogs, Fargo, and Westworld.

In the comics, Maya and Fisk do have a good relationship, until he lies and tells her that Daredevil killed her dad. (It was Fisk himself.) Then it becomes a Runaways/Pride situation where she’s hellbent on taking down his empire.

I like the fact Kate is getting it handed to her at times ..... makes it more realistic and it will show her improvement all around not just hand to hand but how to be better at street smarts and being shrewd

5:05 "Casting is Fantastic !" Yes because young Echo is played by Alaqua Cox (Adult Echo) young cousin !! ;)

I really like when you pay attention to the details they have done in the ep like with the audio it did show us more of Clint’s pov with what he hears as it was confusing me as to what it’s like for him 😭💗

Why people sleep on Hawkeye is beyond me. I love this take on him as a regular everyday suburban dad who also happens to be the deadliest archer in the world. As an amateur archer I can tell you it’s a hard skill set. But is also one of the first real world combat skills. I would love if they eventually explain why Clint chooses to use the bow. He is beyond Olympic level for sure but why not more modern tools? In the comics, Hawkeye appeared decades after Green Arrow over at DC. But his wisecracking take no bs personality was so cool that DC comics actually made Green Arrow more like Hawkeye. Fun fact in the comics Hawkeye constantly second guesses Captain America and is always that dude in the Avengers meetings. However, deep inside he totally idolizes Cap and see him as the type of hero he would like to be. He just won’t ever let Cap know. 🤣😂

Monica the "uncle" at the beginning with echo appears to be Wilson Fisk aka kingpin which is why his face wasnt revealed

No, you dressed appropriately because Haylee Steinfeld was also the lead in the Bumblebee movie :D

he said uncle gone take you home...not that he was the uncle :)

The MCU is really upping their villain game this phase. Reminds me of how the comics have started to reform a lot of former villains by humanizing them. Vulture has a granddaughter who’s a hero now. He was a villain, but a GREAT grandpa. Rhino is growing a soul. Sandman has been breaking at least neutral for years, and Doc Ock has genuine affection for Aunt May. The fact we’re getting villains we can understand, at least in the street level stuff, speaks well of the direction they’re taking things. We should get a FASCINATING Namor and Doctor Doom arc in the future. I personally think Namor is an ass, but I think someone like him would really shake things up. Not necessarily a “good” guy, but too powerful to simply vanquish. Someone they’ll have to reach some kind of accord with. Carol and Namor will either strike sparks or they’ll strike sparks. To be honest, I hope they hate each other. He should remind her of Kree arrogance. Doom will be interesting. One of the major flaws in both FF iterations was NO understanding of Doom’s character. He needs more of Fisk’s attributes. A genuine belief he’s doing right by his country and his people. That has to be at least as important to him as vengeance against Reed Richards. Marvel has some great villains with genuinely humanizing traits the MCU needs to lean into. “Comic book villain” is a trope originating in the golden and silver age of comics that no longer applies. Sure, there are plenty of mustache twirlers in the marvel canon, but even that can be done with the right elements. MCU Ultron was pretty much written on that level, but he was voiced so well it wasn’t as apparent as it might have been. He somehow brought an aspect of tortured humanity to a psychotic AI. Having villains with motives we can understand and somewhat sympathize with is a necessity going forward. This lack is what I think hurts the DECU, narratively at least. Thanos, for the record, was an idiot. All that power and genocide is his best solution. Starlord T’Challa did better WITHOUT the power of the Infinity Stones. Honestly, in places already suffering ecological issues, destroying half of all life wouldn’t be the least bit helpful. It could easily crash ecosystems. He’s a dumbass.

So far I'm not seeing Maya mimicking their moves. I hope its shown more explicitly in the next episodes. Its cool to see a deaf character who uses a prosthetic leg. Minor detail but a big deal for disabled people I'm sure. Excited to see more of Maya in her own spinoff show 7:30 the way you just said that 😆🤣 i mean its a serious thing to fear but the way you delivered it was hilarious 😂

Lol funny when ppl miss that the dad wasn't the one who squeezed her cheek

Your balance organs are in your inner ear, but they're not functionally connected to your hearing. If you lose hearing due to repeated loud noise, like Clint, that doesn't affect your balance.

Really love kate and Clints dynamic so far and Im gonna rewatch daredevil I know Kingpins laugh and that was definately his hand lol. Clint is the best dad ever I want him and his family to just be happy :(

Seems obvious but I've noticed a lot of people don't seem to realize that Clint's hearing is completely gone in his right ear. That's why he only wears an earpiece in his left ear. After Maya damages it he's basically unable to hear at all.

Monica stopped fighting & is now watching the bees 😉🐝👼 love the outfit

Clint TOTALLY understands Echo, he's playing dumb. Clint used a USB arrow in the first Avengers movie on the Shield Helicarrier.

“Hawkeye” is part of Marvel Cinematic Universe {MCU} Phase 4. It is set a week before Christmas 2025; 2 years after “Avengers: Endgame”. In Maya’s flashback of the Karate Academy, there was a curly haired boy whom was brought down by an African-American boy. That curly haired kid is credited as Little Kazi in the end credits roll. It means they go way back as childhood friends. My own personal theory is Kate’s daddy; Derek Bishop faked his own death during the 2012 Chitauri Invasion - so that his wife could then claimed life insurance money. The Bishops were under severe financial duress at this point in time and contemplated selling their posh penthouse to stay afloat. Afterwards, Derek impersonated Jack Duquesne via a photostatic veil @ nano mask. We saw this tool of deception being used when Natasha Romanoff disguises herself as World Security Council member, Hawley toward the end of “Captain America: The Winter Soldier”. The real Jack Duquesne must have died in The Battle Of New York. I feel that Eleanor Bishop is the real mastermind who convinced her husband to fake his death and masquerade as Jack.

The more I've thought about the candy, the more I think it's an innocent red herring. Armand is Jack's uncle, so it's not hard to believe he spends time over at his house and steals bunches of that candy while there. That actually makes more sense than taking the candy when you are there to murder your uncle. When murdering, people usually want to keep their contact with the surrounding environment rona minimum to prevent leaving evidence behind. At least, that's what decades to CSI style shows have taught us.

The Avengers necklace is perfect : it has an arrow in it.

You realise in this you legit see kingpin and hear him laugh (think you missed it) he was the uncle they kept mentioning

She is not the daughter of Kingpin in MCU..he's her uncle,I think you got mixed up...btw great reaction...❤️❤️❤️

Marvel coming for my tears always

Thankfully, hearing has nothing to do with balance. Damage to the ears can cause both deafness AND inner ear disturbance, but it’s not necessarily the case. Depends on the kind and level of damage, honestly. You can have inner ear disturbance without deafness, in fact. I had a Pomeranian whose high pitched bark could do that to me. Yeah, the dog could give me vertigo. And there’s nothing wrong with my hearing. As far as spatial awareness goes, yeah, I imagine that’s a challenge, especially for someone in Clint’s line of work. Since he wears the hearing aid in only one ear, that’s not even a fix. He SHOULD retire, as he’s physically compromised for that line of work without extensive retraining he has no reason to want to go through. Echo reminds me a little of DC’s Cassandra Cain, but not the seriously nerfed version in Birds of Prey. In the comics, movement is her first language. She reads body language and can react to attacks before they happen, knowing exactly what her opponent is about to do. They put a little of that in this version of Echo.

Last week I suggested Sharon Carter was the one who hired the Tracksuit Mafia. Obviously; I was wrong. If Fisk/ Kingpin asks you to do something; you do it, you don't ask questions.

@6:05, even criminals got family that they love and love them. RIP Uncle. That said he was wearing a red tracksuit which means he was involved in some nefarious stuff. I don’t think Clint was out there randomly shanking people.

About choosing your wardrobe according to your reviews... Maya the Bee??? 😜

The dad was the guy who died. Kingpin (presumably) is the uncle

i love ur reaction, this is the first time seeing ur videos, im subing to ur channel & i think the mom maybe the villian

Really hope that hand belongs to Vincent D'onofrio ...and they were speaking Polish.

The younger echo is the echo’s younger cousin

What does Clint and Torretto have in common? FAMILY

Kingpin is echo uncle. Her father got killed by Hawkeye

I know how to do it with duct tape: You just put your fists together, and push them down with your wrists. The friction will cause it to tear open. Thank you, Shark Tank!

There is tricks to tear duct tape, you should be able to find them on youtube, although it would probably be harder with it being anchored down the pony. If it was just her hands, it would be easy.

This one is by far my favorite episode 😭😭

I’m surprised she didn’t mention anything about the car scene with the no cuts

Actually think it’s more Marvel’s Version of Lethal Weapon where Kate Bishop is Riggs and Clint Barton is Murtaugh. The first Lethal Weapon happened during Christmas as well.

@14:35, if Clint starts using the Ronin sword and is aware of additional features that may reveal to Kate that he is Ronin. Also if Jack is who many of us think he is, he may have already figured it out as well.

Dude… the tape on clints bow is from when tchalla sliced it in civil war. 🤯

What if Clint ends up convincing Echo to be a hero? Like he did with Nat, Wanda and Kate...

subtitles say speaks in russian meanwhile the imagine dragon dude is polish actor speaking in polish lol

Yeah Kate bishop is also a half pinay

❤#hawkeye #marvel

I read the title and she is not his daughter, she is his niece

By the way, if you are also looking for a new TV show to watch, might check out Yellowstone. One of the most watched cable shows on in the States. It’s basically the ranching version of The Godfather. Stars Kevin Costner, Luke Grimes, Kelly Reilly, Wes Bentley, and Cole Hauser. In it’s 4th season. Also, in a few weeks on Paramount Plus a prequel spin-off of Yellowstone is released as well. It stars Sam Elliott, Tim McGraw, Faith Hill, and Billy Bob Thornton.

Die hard is a top Xmas film lemme not lie

I thought it was interesting that your outfit looked like a bumblebee, and Hailey Steinfeld was in Bumblebee. Coincidence? 🤔 😄

I'll give you an A for the pendant and a B for the costume. /pun

You look like bumblebee 😍😍

Bumblebee is DC 😉 but cute outfit haha I’m just messin with u hun

Thought it was Niece, not daughter.

Well you've got a new subscriber. Gonna check to see if you react to Arcane and see if you wear Blue for Powder/Jinx or Red for VI

BRO!😁

Next we got yelena

Not kingpin's daughter. She's that ponytail guys daughter Kingpin might be her uncle if he is in this series.

Day 3 of asking you to react to Midnight Sun staring Bella Thorne

You looking like a beautiful bumble bee 🐝 I just love your laugh. I think her possible step-dad is the Swordsman which will make him a hero from the comics which he was part of one Marvel's big weddings where he married Mantis from Guardian of the Galaxy and Wanda married Vision. All the characters are now in the MCU so they can have the iconic double wedding. I'm still looking forward to you doing a reaction on the most creative show today Arcane I know you will get emotional about their realistic characters that they crafted.

I love your videos your vary pretty . Oh my name is Liz

What is magandang

Did you miss "Uncle" being said, several times?

it's Polish not Russian

Thought it was Niece, not daughter.
