Most of the time we end up watching a show a few days (weeks, months) after it aired. But there was no way we were going to risk getting spoiled for this one. Below is the conversation we had on Messenger while watching the season finale of Loki.
(Warning: many many spoilers below.)
Kathryn
I’m not gonna lie, I’m a little stressed about this episode.
Elizabeth
Saaaame
Kathryn
I want it to be good, but more importantly I want it to be a good OUTCOME for Loki.
Elizabeth
Exactly! Not really interested in “bittersweet” TBH.
Kathryn
Ready to play!
Elizabeth
Ready!
Kathryn
playing
Elizabeth
Playing!
Kathryn
I spotted that pen that Ravonna had that Mobeus looked at. Roosevelt High School. Waiting for that to come into play.
Heeere we go.
Elizabeth
Man alive I’m nervous
Weird intro
Kathryn
The voiceover here is new
Lovely visuals as usual
Elizabeth
Is that the time stream you think?
Kathryn
Mmmmaybe
Elizabeth
The colors look like that one artist we really like
Kathryn
Hmm, unsure Sylvie, that’s also new.
And yes, the colors are sumptuous.
YIKES
Elizabeth
AAA
I do not trust that clock
Kathryn
Me neither
Oo, offering Loki a chance to live AND win.
Elizabeth
Everything he ever wanted
Kathryn
Uh oh, Loki’s tempted
Elizabeth
So’s Sylvie
Kathryn
Ee, surprisingly menacing tone from that clock.
Clock’s got her own agenda
I hope we get to hear why there are cracks everywhere
Elizabeth
The front door looked like it’s been busted into already.
What’s that trope that says anyone who eats an apple in a movie is at least a little bit of an asshole?
Kathryn
A bit, yep
Oh look, unkillable?
Those windows remind me of the Sanctum Sanctorum in Doctor Strange
Mobius, coming for payback!
Elizabeth
Well that’s creepy
Kathryn
“I paved the road. You, you just walked down it.”
I really HATE this kind of predestination trickery.
Oh, we’re getting a little meta here.
Beautifully framed shot there.
Elizabeth
Very
“I love your shoes I love your hair..”
Heeeeee’s not all there, is he
Kathryn
Nope nope nope.
Oh boy. The dictator you know versus the one you don’t
Elizabeth
Who’s to say he’s one of the good variants?
Kathryn
Oh man, offering Loki (and Loki) the chance to be in CHARGE.
Elizabeth
And he could STILL be lying.
Kathryn
“We’re all villains here.”
Uh oh?
Elizabeth
“sooooo I fibbed”
Kathryn
“Let’s just talk about it.”
Craaaap
Elizabeth
No fighting no fighting no fighting
Kathryn
“Because you can’t trust. And I can’t be trusted.”
BRILLIANT LINE
Elizabeth
Lovely
Kathryn
Yaaaaaa!
That was quite a gamble, Loki
Elizabeth
eeeee my heart’s racing
Kathryn
My heart’s melting
Elizabeth
Awwwwww
YAAAAAAY
Kathryn
We haven’t ever seen Loki kiss before, have we
Elizabeth
NO
Kathryn
AND NOW I’M SAD DAMNIT
Elizabeth
Wow
Kathryn
STOP MAKING LOKI SAD
Elizabeth
Ohhh what’s he up to now…
Kathryn
Whaaaaa
Elizabeth
Ooooooooo nooooooooo
Kathryn
YAAAAAAAAA
Please tell me we get a post credit scene
Elizabeth
AAAAAAAAAAAAA YOU’RE ENDING IT THERE???
THAT’S ALL WE GET????
Kathryn
Jeeeeezzus
Elizabeth
I mean thank GOD there’s a season 2…
Kathryn
Hang on, Imma fast forward
Nope, that was it!
Elizabeth
I’m gobsmacked
Kathryn
Okay, now we get to wait for season two for WHAT DAMN WELL BETTER BE A REUNION between Loki and Sylvie.
Elizabeth
Bastards had me completely fooled with that kiss
Kathryn
same same same
Elizabeth
Heh, lot of instagrammers are gonna be bummed we didn’t get a shot of Mobius on a jet ski…
Kathryn
RIGHT
What an absolutely glorious kiss we got in this episode though, I mean damn.
Elizabeth
Oh man when he said “you’re an analyst right” and I realized what he meant my heart stopped
Kathryn
Wiped out everyone’s memory? Accidentally went to the wrong time stream? WHO THE HECK KNOWS.
