Season 3 Episode 6
In the American desert in 1872, a church bell rings in an abandoned settlement.
Inside the abandoned structure, we find out why.
Walker shoots one final shot, bringing the number up to ten, exactly, as the legend says.

What is this legend, you ask?
Sure enough, he arrives and Walker immediately begins threatening him.
Bad guys would be so much more efficient without all the bluster.
And the number of people he brought with him was not inconsiderable.
This is what the Hood does, according to Kate, whose family homestead received the same treatment.
No trail to follow, and no survivors.

Well, almost no survivors.
He says he tried to ring the bell to call them, but the Hood was too fast.
It also allows the train to sail clear over a canyon with a steep drop.
The Hood more than holds his own against Shang-Chi, demonstrating some impressive martial arts moves.
He eventually reappears, and this disappearing and reappearing routine begins to factor into his fight with Shang-Chi.
‘What If…’ this final season was the best?
She settles for knocking out Burch, preferring to see him suffer rather than die.
He tells her she’s always been his hero, and that he loves her.
Kate apologizes profusely, but Shang-Chi only blames himself for her death.
She does so gladly, and the two ride off into the sunset.
The first six episodes ofWhat If…?are streaming now on Disney+.
