They really shoehorned that in there with Loki starting the conversation by saying "it's a shame the old woman didn't want to leave."  Seriously?  The Loki that is less than one week removed from trying to conquer Earth is overly concerned because some random old person he just met for the first time ever and interacted with for 60 seconds didn't want to attempt to get on a train she knew she couldn't get on?

I doubt even post-Ragnarok Loki would have done that.

Timing/editing was off on this episode.

Poorly timed dialogue back and forth and transition between scenes. Just off in general.

They also radical nerfed Loki's powers. I can get nerfing him in the tva as a plot device. But when he's out in the real world where his powers were obviously working, he could have waxed everyone in every scene without breaking a sweat.


Well he did stop half a building from falling on him and shove it back


Ya that was a WTF moment.

Not only that, but if it isn't addressed in the next episode it's a sign the writers have hit "fuck it" which, obviously, doesn't bode well for the final 3 episodes.

They (assuming you mean Disney) didn’t make Loki gay.  But they did shoehorn his sexual ordination into an episode for a reason that had nothing to do with the story.

The mythologic Norse god Loki changed genders and once took the form of a mare and was fucked by a stallion.

Honestly, it didn't feel all that shoehorned to me. It's canon for the character, and certainly the type of probing question Loki might ask someone.

Definitely.  

Loki and Wandavision are vehicles to establish the backstory for the next Doctor Strange movie so it doesn't have to be 20 hours long to explain everything.

In fact, the Disney series are probably laying the foundation for the entire next phase of movies.

Let's not forget that the TVA's responsibility is keeping time "in order" and that there is a certain Conqueror in the future...

The series is the way to go, with a movie released at the end of the series would be best.

I'm a fan of time travel or time manipulation movies. Loki is the best series I have seen this far.

As far as I know, her fate was never disclosed. She left to start doing that tv show where she had all the tattoos and no memory. I can't remember what it was called and don't know if it is even still on the air.

She wasn't in Ragnarok or anything after The Dark World.

I'd really have liked a bit more backstory on the TVA and Sylvie.

It would've been nice if they would've at least attempted to explain why they took her as a child.

When I saw this pic a few days ago I was hoping we were going to get the “this is your life” footage for Sylvie that Mobius showed Loki in E1, but considering she grew up in apocalypses I guess they might not have the footage available anyway.

Sooooo much better than last week's episode and paid off all the dialogue.

Sif's appearance was unexpected. But fun.

I'm really curious to see who the big bad is going to be (I hope there's more of a payoff than Wandavision).

What do y’all think baby Sylvie did to create the nexus event?

My guess is that while other Lokis were on the path to causing “pain, suffering, and death so others can achieve the best versions of themselves” instead she was on the path to being a good person.

The show made a point of showing how Sylvie had genuine concern for a stranger even though she had been kidnapped and transported to a bizarre place 15 seconds ago and was only 8 years old.

Meanwhile when our Loki was 8 he was literally stabbing people with daggers.

That's an interesting take.  I took that scene trying to show/reinforce to the viewer that she was quite innocent.

It would be interesting if her innocence was the reason she was being purged.  You can't have a good Loki in the multi-verse.
