She-Hulk’s penultimate episode proves to be an exciting addition of some quality to the show that was missing in it. Compared to the other episodes, “Ribbit and Rip it” gained a better reception from the fans. It can’t be denied that Charlie Cox’s return as Daredevil has a prime contribution to it. Although the internet was divided with the MCU version of Matt Murdock, the writer of the show praised the character as the perfect guy for Jennifer Walters.

As per the law of the Internet, many supported the romance while many of them took no time to reject this. One of the writers of the show Jessica Gao pointed out that since they started to write the story of the episode, they had set their minds that the duo should hook up. According to them, Matt Murdock seemed the right dude for the Tatiana Maslany character.

“In the writer’s room, when we were breaking the episode, we were all just really excited at the idea that they would hook up. He just seemed like the right dude for her. It was like, OK, no matter what we do, all roads should lead to them hooking up.”

After the previous episodes that showed a very bumpy love life for Jennifer Walters and also an unfaithful Josh, this episode delighted the audiences. But the only concern that prevails right now is how will this relationship continue as Charlie Cox’s appearance in She-Hulk was only limited to an episode.

There is a major confusion at this point with She-Hulk which is whether they would continue the romance or not. How will the Man with No Fear reunite with Jennifer Walters? As per the statements of the writer, it can be concluded that they wanted to present this romance in a superior way to any mere infatuation.
