The first episode of She-Hulk: Attorney at Law is now out into the world, and it seems like it’s changing a lot of what we thought we knew about the Marvel Cinematic Universe. In addition to establishing the origin story of Jennifer Walters / She-Hulk (Tatiana Maslany), the premiere episode included some unique nods to larger franchise lore — including a reference to Steve Rogers / Captain America (Chris Evans) that has essentially broken the Internet.

The episode features a running gag surrounding Jen’s theories about Steve, with her initially arguing that because of his busy, decades-spanning schedule protecting the country, he might have ended up dying a virgin. The episode’s post-credits scene comes back to that possibility, with Jen drunkenly lamenting to Bruce Banner / Hulk (Mark Ruffalo) that Steve died a virgin, only for Bruce to reveal that Steve actually lost his virginity to a girl on the USO tour in the 1940s. The reveal, and Jen’s priceless reaction to it, have taken the Marvel fandom by storm, with Evans himself even reacting to the news with a series of emojis. Ruffalo subsequently replied to Evans tweet with an apology, joking “Sorry bro. It was under extreme duress.”
She-Hulk: Attorney at Law follows Jennifer Walters as she navigates the complicated life of a single, 30-something attorney who also happens to be a green 6-foot-7-inch superpowered hulk.
