Loki episode 3 stream9/1/2023 ![]() ![]() Viewers (and Loki) only know what the TVA has told them, and the TVA has an interest in protecting itself. Sure, it gives a compelling argument regarding the safekeeping of the timeline, but even that’s suspect. The show’s first two episodes have walked us through the brutal, merciless tactics that the TVA uses to enforce its idea of order it ends entire, unique lives based on nothing more than a simple choice, or an accident of fate.

Her name as given confirms last week’s suspicions: Sylvie is meant to be an incarnation of Amora, the Enchantress, just not the original. Loki’s ersatz self, who we’ll come to know in this episode as Sylvie, is on a mission to kill the Timekeepers and destroy the TVA as a whole. Lucky for him that he lands somewhere safe! Like … the headquarters of the very organization he just fled from. It’s a risky move, since he doesn’t know where she’s going, and when he jumps after her, he does so with Mr. At the end of the last episode, the titular god of mischief jumped through a time portal after his variant, in a bid to find out what she’s up to and see just how he can use it to his own ends. ![]()
