Loki is one of the rare shows on TV that has not been postponed to next year due to the strikes. It is also probably the only MCU Disney Plus series which most fans agree being good. Most other MCU shows have struggled to impress fans and critics alike and their past two series namely She-Hulk and Secret Invasion have been outrightly bad. So, a lot rides on Loki Season 2’s success both for Marvel television’s future as well as MCU as a whole. Good thing is that Episode 1 proved that it is still the same show we all adored so much and now that episode 2 of Loki is all set to debut in barely two days, everyone is pumped up for it. If you cannot control your excitement anymore, we have some major potential spoilers for the episode mentioned below. Read on at your own risk.
Loki Season 2 Episode 2 Spoilers and Summary
- Duration – 49 Min
- Directed By – Dan DeLeeuw
- Written by – Eric Martin
Loki Season 2 Episode 2 begins arrives at his present TVA and informs Mobius of what happened at the Citadel. Mobius informs Loki and the audience that the TVA is now without a leader and Miss Minutes has also disappeared, so they are operating individually. Some TVA agents have gone rogue and have started pruning all the timelines which were created after HWR’s death. So the TVA’s current goal is to find these rogue agents and stop them. Loki finds Present-OB and asks him to fix the Time Loom as per his past self’s request and then tells Mobius that they need to find Sylvie to help them in this new mission. Mobius says that they have already sent an agent, Hunter X-5, to track her down, but he never returned.
They track down X-5 and they arrive in the 80s where he has retired from the TVA to become a movie star by the name of Brad Wolfe and has abandoned his mission to find Sylvie (this is a deep-cut reference to the comic book character of the same name who took on the role of the serial killer Zaniac in a movie, only to be possessed by the real Zaniac, who was actually a demon from the Dark Dimension. X-5/Wolfe is shown in the trailer as he is walking out of a theater which reads “Zaniac” in the showings board, but I doubt the MCU will adapt his entire comic story). Loki brings some of his villainous side back in order to interrogate X-5, which makes him spill the beans.
He reveals that he had found Sylvie for a while and she is working at a McDonald’s, trying to get away from the mess she created and figure out if she did the right thing. Loki finds Sylvie and confronts her about what she did at the Citadel and we start seeing sparks of their romantic relationship again, which will play a central role this season as well. It is unclear whether Sylvie agrees to help the TVA with stopping the rogue agents, but considering she does not have a central role in the next episode, she probably doesn’t, at least for now. Loki and Mobius call OB to see if he has made any progress in fixing the time loom. He says that he needs authorization from Miss Minutes or He Who Remains (or any Kang variant for that matter), and as long as they are missing, his hands are tied. The protagonist duo decide to travel the Multiverse to find a Kang variant.
