Derek and John continue our podcasts with What if 304 What If Howard The Duck Got Hitched? Even a stellar MCU cast of guest voice actors can't save this simply weird episode, a low point for the series. What If 304 What if Howard The Duck Got Hitched? Synopsis Executive Produced by: Matthew Chauncey, Bryan Andrews and Brad Winderbaum with Kevin Fiege. Head Writer: Matthew Chauncey Story by : Bryan Andrews, Matthew Chauncey, and Ryan Little Teleplay by : Matthew Chauncey and Ryan Little Episode Directed By: Stephan Franck During Thor's party on Earth, Howard the Duck marries Darcy Lewis, and they have a baby that takes the form of an egg.  The couple is subsequently invited to the Grandmaster's intergalactic cruise, but he takes the egg and attempts to cook it for a breakfast before Yondu Udonta steals it.  As the couple gives chase, Nick Fury and Phil Coulson explain that because their child was born during a rare alignment of the Nine Realms called the Convergence, it is destined for great things and has become highly sought after by several factions.  On Knowhere, Yondu delivers the egg to Kaecilius who kills him and attempts to use it as a host body for Dormammu.  S.H.I.E.L.D. attacks, intending to contain the egg, though Howard and Darcy recover it and flee to Jotunheim to seek shelter from Loki.  However, Loki's father Laufey, the Dark Elf Malekith, the Olympian god Zeus, and Thanos and his Black Order are also after the egg, and a chase ensues.  As Howard and Darcy are cornered, the egg suddenly glows gold, rises into the sky and subdues the pursuers with golden energy. It hatches moments later into a human/duck hybrid which the parents name Byrdie.  Fury admits that the child should be with her parents and ceases the pursuit as the family return home in peace.
