What Happened in Loki Season 2, Episode 4?
The last four episodes of Loki season 2 have been a whirlwind of twists and turns. The season has explored the multiverse in new and exciting ways, and it has introduced new characters who have played important roles in the story.
Episode 4 of Loki Season 2, titled Heart of the TVA, picks up where the previous episode left off, with Loki, Sylvie, Mobius, and B-15 traveling to Roxxcart in 2023 to find a way to fix the Temporal Loom.
There is a massive cliffhanger at the end of the episode: The Temporal Loom looks to collapse into itself once Timely gets spaghettified and then starts to expand, blasting out a bright light that swallows everything in its path.
All Loki and company can do is wait to be consumed by the light. When it does, the dramatic score of the show abruptly ends, the screen goes dark for a few seconds, and the credits appear. As O.B. had predicted, the unstable Loom caused them all to perish. Of course, those were not actual deaths.
It will be interesting to see what the final episode brings.
