#Loki #EasterEggs #Episode2
This is my favorite kind of episode of a TV show. Characters are still reeling with the repercussions of the manic events of episode 1, as they're trying to figure out what to do next. But in moments like these, we get to see character relationships develop and grow.
In this episode we see that Loki and Mobius have a true friendship-and Liki still has feelings for Sylvie. We also see that he still doubts himself. Can he be the hero-or is there just always a villain lurking under the surface, waiting to be let out so he can hurt people? In a larger sense, the TVA is experiencing an identity crisis. Who are they now? What’s their mission? These questions are forcing the characters to decide who they want to be.
The episode is also field with the tiniest, most obscure references to the comics and other MCU stories-it was a real geek feast I’m excited to tell you about, so thanks for choosing this video, and as always thanks for supporting us and shopping our merch store, where we design the shirts ourselves. In celebration of Loki we have this variant hoodie with a screencrush logo, the usual variants police lineup, miss minutes dial clock, and Doug as Loki.
Doug: I did not consent to having my likeness used.
Shopping our merch store is the next way you can support our channel, thanks for watching, let’s dive in. We begin in London 1977-and notice the distinction that this is on the sacred timeline. Last week’s post credits scene made it clear that Sylvie is on a branching timeline-and now we know why. Elements within the TVA still see the sacred timeline as the only timeline that matters, and will only see some of the people on those timelines as variants-as less than. And of course this draws a connection to Loki, who always sees himself as less than-the little brother, the lesser of Odin’s sons. [avengers, I remember a shadow].
This mission is new for Loki-because Mobius has never been undercover before. Hw’s alway wore his normal suit, because he was always showing up to timelines before they were pruned. And notice how Loki-ever the showman-has chosen a tux with a frilly shirt. And at the premiere Natalie Holt gives us a 70s funk version of the Loki theme [clip].
So we opened at a movie theater-and it showed a lot of restraint on disney’s part to not have star wars posters everywhere, since this is the year a new hope was released. There is one fun star wars cameo in the lobby that I think they did with a deep fake, this is your mom. But these posters are my favorite easter eggs in this episode. First, this one is for Herbie rides again.
Doug: What's that?
Well it’s a 1974 sequel to the ‘68 movie the Love bug. In the sequel, a sentient car named Herbie saves a woman from being evicted by a greedy landlord. The thing is, there was a herbie movie released in 1977-herbie goes to Monte Carlo. And compared to Herbie rides again, it's bad. Herbie rides again tells a heartb=felt story about greedy capitalists forcing a woman from her home-which hey, parallels nickel with this episode, when the existing power structures of the TVA essentially destroy the homes of trillions of people on the branching timelines.
Herbie goes to monte carlo was about rich people car racing. A metaphor for how the counterculture movement of the 1960s gave way to the industrialized hyper-capitalist culture of the 1980s.
Doug: You got all that from a movie poster?

Oh look up C.l.O.C marvel it will blow your mind here comes the sentry and it’s going to be Morbius 💯💥 they made him forget so he won’t use his powers
Key Lime pie is the BEST pie.
When does this show get exciting! ITS OBVIOUS that older lady is sylvie. Same accent same nose. Where is the big bad Kang? Oh wait that will be the final ten mins of the finale
OB is a kang variant
The opening chase scene was epic! Seeing loki use his power again was cool too.
Right!? It seems like he is coming into his own and harnessing deeper power I hope it fully unlocks it especially when Sylvie and Loki combine their energy to enhance their individual or shared powers.
As we were watching, I said to my wife, damn I almost forgot Loki was LOKI. The show has been so good without doing much with the God of Mischief stuff. Glad they were able to get his powers in without making it ridiculous.
I missed that so much
Loved seeing his horns come back, even if it was only in shadow.
I had forgotten that he had magic … was so used to seeing him being more passive with his powers 😅
Something I love is Loki was in full control of his emotions the entire time. He was just acting because he is the god of stories
I know, right? He knows just when to be gay 😀
oh yea for sure.
Seeing Loki use more of his magic is always welcome
Definitely - he finally got to show off a lot more of what he's capable of.
I liked Loki being able to be the Loki we know..
The Loki we know was just a villain. This version is a good dude.
@@ssotkowfor now
cunning, dangerous, confident - season 1 forgot it@@ssotkow
@@ssotkow yeah he became a generic "good dude" main character, until this episode
I know right, he's much better when he's not all good
No matter what happens, I need Loki and Mobius happy, Sylvie to keep her job, and OB and Casey to become friends.
I want Casey to be hired by OB this breaking the cycle showing free will finally exists
@@ked49execpt the fact that ob hiring Casey would literally be fulfilling a loop
What about b15?
@@samuelballard3467 OB is cursed to be alone. So he would break the cycle by hiring help
Mobius w/ Jetski
The apple pie is literally the goat loki talking about how his emotions clouded his judgment during the event of avengers to show his anger against his father was a nice memory lane.
It was so good. I want more I can't wait until next week. 😩😢 i loved it when Loki’s evil side breaks out 😁
i love the way loki character arc is changing ❤
Fr I hate waiting
I really enjoy how this show has themes and ideas, a lot of the mcu is just fun action so it’s nice to see a show willing to dive deep into themes
Yoo it really felt like a self contained episode but still tied to the overall theme or like a chapter in a book. Very well written episode.
I was literally just talking to my friend about this because it's SOOO TRUEE!! Love this series so much
I love everything about this episode, especially the Dream Team: Loki, Mobius, B-15, Casey, and O.B!
This show has a lethal combination of writing, acting, directing, and camera work
What did you think of the episode?
This is what Marvel TV needs to be because the writing in the acting this entire episode was phenomenal
I enjoyed jt; especially the Casey & OB interaction
This episode contains some of the best acting I would consider in the entire MCU. I don't think it was as phenomenal at the first episode, but I think for a setup episode where most shows slow down with a dip in quality, I think this episode managed to sustain its high-quality writing and performances! 8.5/10
The big fighting scene was stiff, other than that it was okay.
Loved it!
Hiddleston and Wilson's acting on point. Love seeing these guys together😂 tremendous performances😅
Seeing Loki use his magic to conjure shadows makes me think he probably could've stopped Gorr in the Shadow Realm in Love and Thunder if he was in it.
I want to find out that Mobius is a variant of Phil Coulson, which would really help bring Loki's story full circle.
Holy moly
I'm really hoping so too now!
If Loki's true purpose is to get people to be their "best selves." Then maybe he NEEDS to be the antagonist for He Who Remains, because the Timeline needs to become the best variant of Kang.
Oooo I like it!
That's a great theory
That's basically a version in the comic edition where he's the one behind it from the very start.
Maybe the Eternals are from a branching timeline, that would explain how Palpatine returned
As long as Henry Cavile returns as Thor in his black Korn suit 😀
😂😂
Grandpa Palpatine's return was perfectly explained in The Rise of Skywalker, "somehow"
Lol
🤣🤣🤣
Loki ... the way we know him ... angry, scary, determined, full of tricks ... exactly the way we love him, the first chase says it all ... expecting more of our very old Loki with all his tricks in this season...
the reason i think it’s an ouraborous is because when loki was time slipping, the past mobius and b-15 he met were talking about branched timelines, and in the present there were also branch timelines, which means branch timelines is a type of ragnarok for the tvs. branch timelines, tva going down, multiverse war, tva gets reset with new management, and then once again branch timelines.
I loved this episode so much cause of the relationship angle and intensity between loki and Sylvie that was ❤
The acting is unreal! Sylvie's facial expressions are priceless
You can tell Loki was turning on "Villain Mode" by his voice. When he talks with a little more gravel, a lower register, just a little more sharp, he's in Villain Mode. It's unclear if he did this intentionally the first time or lost it like Mobius, I tend to think it was intentional though. It was definitely intentional the second time when he went in to interro-torture X-5.
Loki can control himself now, he uses his villain self as a tool now, and use it to his own benefit ! He’s best of both sides .
Yes! Thank you for posting these so quickly! It's your glorious purpose! 💚
I have a comment about Mobius being the stealth villain all along. That makes sense because keep in mind that a Mobius isn't just a loop but it's a 1 dimensional loop, meaning there is only one side for a Mobius. So what if Mobius can only ever be loyal to the TVA no matter what?
The Automat having only one kind of pie is a nice contrast to the McDonald's, which has a menu of many options. (including something "new" - the McNuggets) The Automat is green, while the McD's is yellow - Loki's colors. So those environments demonstrate the themes you were mentioning about determinism. In the Automat, despite how many choices there are, the outcome is the same. Is Loki fated to just be the villain? Is he stuck with that fate, or will he be able to make different choices, leading to another outcome? Also interesting that Mobius immediately orders the Apple Pie when he arrives - because it's not Key Lime.
Ur thinking about this too much and reaching a LOT but u do u buddy
You're definitely reading too much into it 😂
You’re so quick with it! Exactly why screencrush is the best
They get the episodes before lol all major YT channels do
Small thing, at 28.25 in the episode, U should notice that in Episode 1, the Sacred Time Line after being forced down the Loom was streamlined, and in episode 2 you could see the Time Line starting to deteriorate.
So far I'm loving it, and reminding me of how good the MCU and shows can be.
The sacred timeline can be observed from any time branches perspective as their own is their principle sacred timeline. I find this such an existential horror... The crazy reality is that no timeline or universe can ever be a MAIN universe. So when, Loki says in the first season, "It's okay, Nothing matters" This says sooo much. Everything matters and simultaneously doesn't matter. Wow I think I'm having an existential and nihilistic crisis of my own...🥺
My theory is,
1. After being defeated by Ant Man, Kang was sucked by the probability drive and transported to the 19th century, where he renamed himself Victor Timely and changed his purpose: to create one singular timeline.
2. Kang (as Victor Timely) then invents the temporal loom, but he only has 19th century technology, that's why TVA's design is rectro tech. (This is also the point of existence of the TVA)
3. Loki and Mobius visited Kang(VT) after he created the device. If you've seen the time travel short film Room 88, this is what's happening in Victor Timely's timeline from his point of view.
4. Ravonna Renslayer also went to Kang(VT). This is probably why she left Tva in Loki S1 (She was instructed by Miss Minutes, so perhaps this is something Ravonna must do, She was the fail safe).
5. Loki S2 Event (Loki's time loop, loki prunes himself to fulfill the loop) Ep 1 is actually Ep 7!
6. Kang (VT ) saw the upcoming events, the branching of timelines, the overloading of the temporal loom, and he realized he needed Sylvie and Loki together because he needed those moments to happen, he needed to be visited by these people to complete the loop. (so Sylvie was kidnapped later in time, and He who remains killed by Sylvie at the end of time that's why he who remains says "See you soon").
7. Ravonna Renslayer was stuck in 19th century or maybe she's willing to join Kang (VT) in that time to help in creating and running TVA.
8. And then there's the time keepers era, the Loki S1 event, Loki and Sylvie at the Citadel, and so on, until it all happens again (Time Loop)
*Meaning this is all part of the ouroborus. A time loop itself, and if this breaks, there will be multiversal war. I believe they have to lose for the events of Kang Dynasty and Secret War to happen.
*There was an ouroborusception going on here, first with Loki's time loop, then Ravonna's time loop, Kang's time loop, Sylvie's time loop, and the main MCU's time loop.
I don't know, what you guys think?
Please let me know if there are any plot holes in this theory
I like it!
Loved this episode! I heard from some TH-camrs who previewed the first 4 early that this one wasn’t as good. But man, think about all the places and things they did in this episode. Felt like sooo much of the trailers have now been covered which is amazing bc it means we will be seeing soooo many new and surprising things still to come. The character interactions and acting are absolutely top notch. Kevin and team need to take note and see how they can achieve the same level of success with all of their other projects. This is top Marvel content AND there are no traditional superheroes to be found, which is the coolest part. I don’t think anyone would label Loki a superhero. Most of what he accomplishes could be done without his powers any ways! Can’t wait for more!
It's actually really interesting seeing this character driven episode, it plays out like a homage to old cop dramas, that its something strangely enjoyable to watch and appreciate the mundane in such a fantastical genre show! It's cool and almost surreal to see Loki as a suave James Bond kind of guy now, but I do love the moments where you do see the Hannibal Lecter currents hiding beneath the surface. The Dark Urge in Baldur's Gate 3 just lurking that if you push Loki too far, he will not hesitate to inflict max damage on you. Loki actually held it in pretty well and I was surprised that it was Mobius who lost it this time. That you can see that Loki has matured as a person that though he was taunted with his insecurities and failures, and he is a guy with some what arrested emotional development, he actually could take it. I mean, yeah he said that his breaking point was funnily enough, throwing Tony Stark out of the window, and he means that casually like as if its something normal people would do. But also credit to Tom Hiddleston having a ball doing the interrogation torture sequence. And Owen Wilson for just yeah being Mobius. It's interesting that Mobius is actually scared of seeing a good possibility, because he's so fearful it may turn out good and that he'll be sad, and want more and what's out there. So he rather not know. Like I always remember the line from Hellboy 'I sleep good not knowing'. The interaction between Loki and Mobius is such a cool buddy thing. I think they get on because they don't really judge each other and just accept.
On the other hand, the interaction between Loki and Sylvie is yeah when you know its the 'lovers awkward', its cute. Because they both honestly really like each other but they're also really shy to say so, but its also a complicated relationship because they have very different ideologies. Loki's mindset has changed and evolved, that he understands why there needs to be 1 timeline, I mean yes, free will is cool but also there needs to be order to some degree, full chaos has no purpose. At least order has purpose. But he also doesn't believe in stupid unquestioning order, like forcefully blowing up timelines to preserve 1 timeline, like sure, last time he'd used to do that, but he understands and he's learned to think about other people. He could have been killed on a non-sacred timeline because he's a variant and technically shouldn't exist, but he's alive. Sylvie still wants to chill and do her own thing, but Loki is trying to convince her to support order instead of be her full chaotic self. But of course, her life experiences has traumatized her and she just hates the TVA period because of all they've done to her, ask her to fight for the TVA? Nonsense right? But I think secretly, it will reach a point she will get bored of living in her perfect 'barbie land' and she will have to face up to things and care about what's happening around her.
At least they've fixed Loki's time slipping problem and he can interact normally. But yeah, I can see that Loki is actually quite liking this strange public service/ government kind of life. I mean we laugh at office life but he's taken an appreciation for the mundane. It's more relatable, more human, sure its not big, dramatic and over the top, sure there are still catastrophic issues, but there's something more humbling about it. He's not just working as a lone wolf, he's learnt to work with others and with friends towards common goals. Perhaps he'll be the new boss of the TVA? Who knows?
👏👏👏
I hate to say it but Dox might’ve just been speaking of the TVA / Timekeepers warnings about letting timelines branch but I’d love it there’s more to it.
I completely agree. Simply put THE TIME KEEPERS WERE FAKE BUT THEIR WARNINGS WERE REAL. I agree with u
I think that time in the TVA is happening all at once. When Loki is talking to OB in the past, in the present OB isn't just then remembering, he is currently having that conversation.
this makes sense now that time has frayed apart, the TVA's loom which can't handle all the timelines while weaving one timeline was also what powers and allows the TVA to exist outside of time, thus all of time can now happen all at once
@@blackreaper2247 exactly! Thank you!
Yeah, the way it was edited would suggest it.
This show is the most beautiful thing to come out of the MCU. It looks so good.
In Episode 1, Loki was tasked with pruning himself out of all the various points in time and space in order to stop time slipping. So it is presumably him. LOKI is also the one to first call Oroborus "OB" during the time slip. Since OB says "hey, I like that"
Wouldn’t it be so cool if the final episode of this series would set up a perfect loop back to S1:E1 rhyming with the loop snake thing that I don’t remember what it’s called.
Ouraborus
Ouroboros
I am hoping that this at 14:34 was a reference to a great Beatles song about loneliness and wanting to be somewhere else, a way of saying that Brad is trying to that you usually don't hear:
"He's a real nowhere man, sitting in his nowhere land, making all his nowhere plans for nobody. Nowhere man, please listen. You don't know what you're missing."
Loki running in circles and always losing to make every one around him better version of themselfs reminded me of Doctor Who's Day of the Doctor where John Hurt's War doctor said "Great man are forged in fire, it is a priviledge of a lesser man to light the flames.
I'm really enjoying this season thus far and I look forward to seeing how it all plays out. Bring on Episode 3.
loki literally warns dox when he time slips into the room with them. plus, they already heard everything from when loki and mobius talked. they have recordings everywhere.
knock knock?
Who's there?
Brad
Brad Who?
The one thing that I noticed (and am perplexed by) is that Loki is working with Mobius, B-15, etc. They want to let the timelines branch and be free, but Loki knows that doing so brings all the Kang variants and the next multiverse war. I feel like those ideals are eventually going to cause a rift between Loki and the TVA people
This confuses me too. Shouldn’t destroying the branches are necessary to prevent more Kang variants? But maybe Loki is still trying to find a way to block Kang variants without sacrificing all the lives in the branches?
I think thats the choice that there all going to have to make let everyone be free but also release kang so it gets destroyed anyway, I'm hoping they'll come up with a way to stop the bad kangs once and for all
I know nothing in this show is making any sense
@@keerthichandra376thats not what the OP meant...lol
Mobius being the low-key "villain" would be absolutely wild, and I for one am here for it!
I think we need to appreciate how freakin fast these videos come out. U get so many details and record and edit in a matter of minutes
Are you for real lol
TH-camrs get access to episodes early, record and edit days before, and drop the video soon after the episode comes out. They all have talked about it multiple times
Yeah they do it all ahead of time lol if you’ve ever done video editing or created social media content, you’d realize it’s physically impossible for them to do it in minutes.😂
The 3 Lokis gave me Time Keeper vibes. I can see Loki as the future leader of the TVA. Still can’t wait to see Renslayer confront Victor Timely & find out more about her involvement with He Who Remains!
if they bombed Sylvie's branched timeline then how come she was back to it like nothing had happened? Or did they reach them before they could bomb it? I guess that would be the case
They never got to her timeline.
Doug’s simple quip, “You got all that from one poster dude?” is all anyone reading this needs to hear if you aren’t subscribed!
Key Lime is the worst pie?!? Detective Diaz, *how dare You? I AM YOUR SUPERIOR OFFICER!*
Anyone find it strange that 2/3rds of the trailer footage has been shown.
Meaning the next episode is about finding victor timely and Loki re time slipping and ending at a jet ski rental place.
I think this means we’re about to veer into unknown territory once all the trailer scenes are shown
@@alexhead2645yes
3:13 Hey, that's Ralph in Three's Company
What a great episode so far the best episodes of any disney + series victor timely appearances is looming on OB is definitely one of the most important people in the TVA im puzzled wondering if he's also a variant.
Although Star Wars was released in May 1977, it didn’t make it’s UK premiere until Dec 1977, and given that they are not wrapped up all warm, I think it’s correct that there are not loads of Star Wars posters everywhere. Those were the days where those of us in the UK used to have to wait a while to see films that had been out a while in the US, I would presume due to the need to produce copies of the film reels and to ship them to the cinemas.
Doesn't she just mean the Timekeepers warned the TVA about branching timelines and that their warnings were real despite them being fake?
I completely agree. Simply put
@@modifiedprogramjam4830 Yeah it seemed like she was just the stereotypical leader stuck in her old ways
Wow, Ryan is not complaining about the D+ episode.
When Mobius said “I was following you” and Loki said “I was following you”, I said “I have watch the new ScreenCrush video”! This season smacks of future episodes effecting the current ones. In episode 5 and/or 6 Loki and Sylvie will be traveling to the past to effect episodes 1 through 4. Ouroboros.
If you think about the sacred timeline in season 1, it was a stable time loop, with no beginning or end. What if each branch that survives until the end of time has to then be reincorporated into the timeline somehow, which is why the time loom is now in operation? Like, it has to now grab all of those loose ends, and somehow cram them all back into the beginning of time.
I loved the opening scene but towards the end of the chase I got these vibes that it was being used as a way to get through the episode time. I remember at one point thinking "isn't this loki? He could easily end this in a few seconds" and then he eventually did but it just felt very very slightly longer than it needed to be. Get me back into that tva and the lore man I eat that crap uppppp
I think that as a demonstration of how furious and driven Loki was at that moment as much as anything else - he could have ended it as soon as he tracked X-5 down, but he wanted to demonstrate a point to him.
Naw he was just playing with him remember his name is god of mischief he feeds off doing that
Loved how the actor playing Casey was cheerful about a fighting AI in the same week He had to fight an AI in lower decks.
Sylvie will understand at least dox will receive her comeuppance for sure.
When you started mentioning Doctor Who, I thought you were going to mention the same thing I noticed. I thought “Brad Wolfe” was an homage to “Bad Wolf”. I didn’t know Brad and Zaniac were characters from the comics. But still it’s interesting that Brad was possessed by a demon. Sort of similar to how Rose Tyler was possessed by “Bad Wolf”.
I’m in love w Sylvie like Loki does
For some reason when Loki and Sylvie joined together and released their energy reminded me of Lord Flashheart from Blackadder and his WOOF groin thrusting 😂😂😂
No 3 Covered Slip at Chatham Royal Dockyard in Kent was the location used for the pruning drop off point
Mobius and Lokis relationship has been great
Eugene Cordero is also great as Rutherford on Star Trek Lower Decks, where he similarly plays an engineer who idolizes other engineers
This episode was so fun and suspenseful. Super enjoyable from the first and last minute.
I'm assuming since O.B. says that only the person who built the TVA can get past the locked door makes me think that season 2 episode 3 will be the one where Victor Timely shows up along with Ravonna Renslayer where we'll finally get an answer to if Victor Timely is the same "prime" Kang from Quantomania or not. And Kang will finally get some closure to the "I have lost, you have no idea what I've lost." line from Quantomania since he'll be reunited with either the "prime" Ravonna or a variant of her and maybe he'll use his futuristic technology to restore her memories of him.
ScreenCrush ,The scene where multiple Loki's captured Brad was filmed in front of the same wall that's on the cover of Paul Mccartney's " Band On The Run " album.
Watching this episode again I spotted some subtle things. Like, Sylvie works at McDonalds whose golden arches echo the Loki golden horns. In addition to that, her truck is green with small yellow lights across its top. It's Loki in truck form. Lol.
Also curious about an additional riff off the name Brad Wolf seeing as he's a time traveller and on Doctor Who there was another time traveller associated with the name Bad Wolf.
The Oroboros goes further. Past loki, trapped in the future, saw Sylvie before been pruned by himself. He thinks she is related to whatever is happening in that future, but the truth is she is there because Loki, by seeing her in the future, looked for her in the past, saving her from that branch pruning.
The whole X 5 asking about getting them drinks is also kind of a callback to how Tony poured himself a drink in Avengers to buy time for his suit to arrive
The scene from S1 when Miss Minutes said, “He thinks this will be more useful,” makes so much sense now! I think He Who Remains lied about not knowing what would happen next and gave files of “Victor Timely” for Renslayer to find him. I also think he planned for Silvie to kill him, the events in Ant-Man, and so far the events of Loki S2. It seems everything is coming true to Kang’s plan, and that's more threatening than Thanos.
The anch earrings may be a reference to Logan’s Run. Anch is used as a symbol by the resistance who reject the life-limiting restrictions of the dome.
Thank you for having this up so quickly i look forward to these so much, it makes me go back and watch it after your breakdowns
I agree it's Loki who prunes himself and I believe the reason why Loki can't stabilize is because Loki from the Future needs to set things up in the past for his future self. Oroborus for sure. The strange lady in the elevator gives it away too
Hiddleston walking in that tux reminded me of what a great James Bond he would be.
This was one of MCU's best pieces ever! However, as a casual watcher of the movies and shows, I'd be lost without your masterful explanations.
One thing you're dead wrong about though: key lime pie. If you'd ever had a really good one, you wouldn't say such things.
B-15's reaction to branches being pruned will never not be moving
No one thinks there is a connection being Mobius loving Jet Skis and Key Lime Pie? That sounds like a guy who lives a chill life in Key West.
B15 is wearing her usual uniform, just without the breastplate armor, you can see the tie and the same collar decorations in the war room scene in episode one. As well as the same pants with the same pattern on the left leg as the other hunters.
Damn man, I knew recognised Doug from somewhere! Dude you were the best taxi ride I ever had, first and only time I got to work early! The London taxi service hasn't been the same without you
You are absolutely correct. I thought I missed something, so watched episode 1 again
1st round of the interrogation was so good
The "Your Mom" jokes are my favorite part of recent ScreenCrush videos. :)
❤❤❤❤ this episode. loki is hands down my fav!! can't wait till next week 🤗
When mobius and Loki are walking towards the premier you can see the poster to their left and one of them is a poster of kumail nanjiani’s kingo
I think Dox just means that the messengers were fake but the message was real meaning they still can't let the timeline branch even though their gods were false. Then she is just curious about what happened at the end of time.
I agree
I believe the Ancient One was the one protecting the timeline from Kang and the TVA. She told Strange she had stopped countless horrible futures from occurring. She was a threat to Kang and needed to be eliminated. With her out of the way the stones were destroyed which leads to Loki showing up to the TVA. Which always with the stones gone starts branches in the timelines. The scene with He Who Remains heard the thunder strike was when The Ancient One and Strange talk before her death. You see the cracks of lightning in the distance that look similarly to the branches in the timeline. I know it's out there, but she said her job was too protect their realm and time stone at all costs.
“I drove a cab there” unnecessary addition, but surprisingly needed. Thank you for the quick joke
Idk what you mean by trying to figure out who warned her.. Ox’s full sentence was “The timekeepers were fake, but their warning were real” I’m 97% sure she meant the timekeepers warnings were real.. Great breakdown though 👍🏽 appreciate ya
Herbie Goes to Monte Carlo is a classic!
Props on The Fog of War reference! Great documentary.
On point! Mostly an algorithm boost.. enjoyed the show and the breakdown great job team on all the great work!
Theory: dox pruned Loki. A sign of the infinity ouroboros on the aforementioned character. Looped looped timelines.
Let me break this down.
Yes Loki knew he had to prune himself to save himself. Future him noticed he he couldn’t. So he manufactured small butterfly effects so that dox when on her, dare I say, genocidal rampage in which eventually would cause her to prune him out of hate but the trickery was that was exactly where and when he needed to be pruned but even he doesn’t know it then. 🤯
That looks like Mobius over Loki’s shoulder at 24:49
6:54, The least complicated answer is she’s referring to the Multiversal War being resumed by who they have yet to identify as the Council of Kangs. This sentiment was first expressed by He Who Remain’s, who clarified the only part of the TVA “dogma” that was false was the Time Keepers, as he hid any knowledge of him or his variants from their records.
8:08, Considering the character and the show somewhat play with Loki’s Norse origins in regards to some of its themes, it can be inferred that one of the reasons the character rarely expressed or expanded upon the full extent his powers was at least partially culturally based. just like Norse culture, Asgardians champion strong warriors that use weapons and physical attributes to win battles, deeming it honorable, while the use of magic was shunned and deemed “unmanly”, only appropriate for women to use. Throughout his film appearances, Loki’s attempts at playing the conquerer role (a reflection of how he views his father and brother) in a misguided attempt to prove his strength and earn validation as an Asgardian. And just like with his attempts to rally his variants (some of which, such as Sylvie and Old Loki, also inspiring him to recognize his buried potential) to hunt Alioth with a rousing speech that almost seems like he’s trying to emulate Thor, the most traditionally heroic person he knows, he fails at playing this role he isn’t suited for because he isn’t willing to play it as himself. Now that he’s free of Asgard, the expectations of his family and culture, his grudge against his father and brother and most importantly his insecurities and ego, he is completely free to express himself without restraint and discover more of his full potential, both with his power but as a person.
13:12, Not only does Loki weaponize Brad dismissing him as a villain by playing the role of one to intimidate him into confessing, but he also counters Brad’s insistence on nothing at the TVA being “real” by claiming that Brad himself isn’t and it therefore shouldn’t matter if he dies in order to convince Brad that was about to kill him.
21:25, Sylvie’s persistent attempts to abandon the fight after she’s convinced herself she’s done her part also speaks to her flaws. Unlike Sylvie, Loki knows “it’s harder to stay”, as in harder but also important to be willing to continue to work away at something rather than letting things burn. Sylvie has chosen this new life to escape any form of consequence or responsibility because she continues to only view the situation through the lens of her own suffering just as Loki used to do. And as the episode ends, it’s clear she’s realizing simply retiring isn’t giving her the peace and happiness she thought it would when she knows she could be doing more.
Correct
Omg Ryan, noooo, key lime is my absolute fav, GOOD PIE!
Dox said “the time keepers were fake but their warnings were real”, seemingly referring to the warning from season 1 in all of the TVA propaganda about the timeline branching. Pretty simple actually.
I fear this is going to be the new "Mephisto". 🤣
Season 1 did show the same camera through the time door when they send a team to investigate the hunter team ambushed by Sylvie at the Ren Faire.
