Tesseract and its Dark Fate [0:00]
The video begins by introducing a theory that relates to the Tesseract in the MCU, suggesting its unfortunate connections have led to it being termed the "Deathrect." It highlights that any character attempting to steal the Tesseract meets with a bleak fate. The first example given is Red Skull, who attempts to seize the Tesseract in "Captain America: The First Avenger," leading him to vanish and reappear in "Infinity War" as the protector of the Soul Stone, signifying a shift in his existence.
Next, the video discusses Loki in "Thor: Ragnarok," who takes the Tesseract but is later killed by Thanos in "Infinity War." It emphasizes the doomed path of characters like Loki and how their interactions with the Tesseract conclude negatively. In "Endgame," Tony Stark's theft of the Tesseract in a time heist also results in his eventual death, reinforcing the notion that any character who touches the Tesseract does not have a favorable outcome in the MCU.
