"Summon the Suit" is the second episode of the American television miniseries Moon Knight, based on Marvel Comics featuring the character Moon Knight. It follows Steven Grant as he continues to learn of his dissociative identity disorder (DID) and the deadly mystery involving Egyptian gods his other identity, Marc Spector, is involved in. The episode is set in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU), sharing continuity with the films of the franchise. It was written by Michael Kastelein and directed by Aaron Moorhead and Justin Benson.

Oscar Isaac stars as Marc Spector / Moon Knight and Steven Grant / Mr. Knight, alongside May Calamawy, Ann Akinjirin, Karim El-Hakim, David Ganly, F. Murray Abraham, and Ethan Hawke.
