Before we head back to them, we get a bit more of Sylvie\u2019s origin story. Turns out she\u2019s been on the run from the TVA most of her life \u2014 Ravonna (<strong>Gugu Mbatha-Raw<\/strong>) was the one to bring her in as a child. Young Sylvie escaped, however, and grew up in the (usually) Nexus-free zones surrounding apocalypses.<\/p>\n<p>Sylvie and Loki have a heart-to-heart as they face their demise. It\u2019s a touching scene, and one that is earned by the groundwork laid last episode with the two Lokis being forced to work together and come to understand each other.<\/p>\n<p>Their bonding has another effect \u2014 it causes a major Nexus event (AKA a branch off the Sacred Timeline) that clues the TVA in on their location. The TVA grabs them at the last minute and subsequently imprisons them.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-679879 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/d13ezvd6yrslxm.cloudfront.net\/wp\/wp-content\/images\/arc-104-06056_r_crop_cde0ea6c-700x300.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"700\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/d13ezvd6yrslxm.cloudfront.net\/wp\/wp-content\/images\/arc-104-06056_r_crop_cde0ea6c.jpeg 700w, https:\/\/d13ezvd6yrslxm.cloudfront.net\/wp\/wp-content\/images\/arc-104-06056_r_crop_cde0ea6c-360x154.jpeg 360w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px\" \/><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Work_Your_Loki\"><\/span><strong>Work Your Loki<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><!-- SlashFilm_300x250_In_Post_2 -->Mobius (<strong>Owen Wilson<\/strong>) is pissed off at his Loki, and sends Hiddleston into time jail where the Asgardian repeatedly relives a memory of Sif (a nice cameo by\u00a0<strong>Jamie Alexander <\/strong>here!) beating him up over and over again. The bit is funny and a nice perk for MCU fans, but it also hammers home how Loki\u2019s actions cause him to go through life alone, and how, ironically, Loki is largely the way he is because he\u2019s scared of being alone.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-679890\" src=\"https:\/\/d13ezvd6yrslxm.cloudfront.net\/wp\/wp-content\/images\/loki-1-e1625062210294-700x299.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"700\" height=\"299\" srcset=\"https:\/\/d13ezvd6yrslxm.cloudfront.net\/wp\/wp-content\/images\/loki-1-e1625062210294-700x300.jpeg 700w, https:\/\/d13ezvd6yrslxm.cloudfront.net\/wp\/wp-content\/images\/loki-1-e1625062210294-360x154.jpeg 360w, https:\/\/d13ezvd6yrslxm.cloudfront.net\/wp\/wp-content\/images\/loki-1-e1625062210294-768x328.jpeg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px\" \/><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"The_TVA_is_Lying_and_Some_Agents_Are_Realizing_It\"><\/span><strong>The TVA is Lying, and Some Agents Are Realizing It<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Loki isn\u2019t the only one facing hard questions about themselves this episode.

He ends up stealing Ravonna\u2019s TVA data pad and confirms that she not only knows what\u2019s up, but is responsible for killing C-20 (<strong>Sasha Lane<\/strong>) after the Hunter realizes she used to live on Earth.<\/p>\n<p>Mobius is planning to spring Loki, and the two have a nice scene where the TVA agent tells Loki that he can be anything, even someone good.

What\u2019s certainly more interesting, however, is that he\u2019s surrounded by four new Variants: <strong>Richard E. Grant<\/strong> dressed as an old, classic version of Loki, a kid version of Loki (<strong>Jack Veal<\/strong>), an alien alligator Loki, and what is perhaps a Thor\/Loki Variant combo (played by <strong>Deobia Oparei<\/strong>), given he holds a steampunk version of Mjolnir\u2019s hammer.<\/p>\n<p>Is Loki in Hell?

Is Mobius really dead or is he in the same place Hiddleston\u2019s Loki was sent to when he was pruned? I have no idea! One thing <em>Loki <\/em>is doing really well is subverting expectations each episode. Just when you think you have a handle on where things are going, the story takes a twist and lands somewhere unexpected. I can\u2019t wait to see where things go from here, though don\u2019t ask me to speculate because whatever I guess, I\u2019m pretty sure I\u2019ll be wrong.
