Warning: This article contains serious spoilers Loki Season 2 Episode 1 In the grand tradition of most Marvel Cinematic Universe releases, Loki The first episode of Season 2 has a post-credits scene.Following the daring mission to pull Tom Hiddleston’s Loki out of the timeline and stop his passage of time, the first Loki The second season of “The Sting” is also a very important one.
Loki Season 2 is already off to a strong start, with a complex storyline that’s infused with plenty of scientific jargon (especially from Kwan Kai-Hui’s “Ouroboros”). It’s also very clear that the show is less interested in connecting to the events of the broader Marvel timeline, instead focusing on the ongoing battle to build for the divine timeline. Loki End of season one. But that doesn’t mean all features of the Marvel Universe are left out, and the post-credits scene provides that familiar element.

What happened in the end credits of Rocky Season 2 Episode 1
After the credits character appears Loki At the end of the first episode of Season 2, Loki avoids being spaghetti-ified or lost in time, with a post-credits scene that immediately flips back to Sofia Di Martino’s Cyrus after the Eternal’s death. Ervi. Sylvie travels back in time to 1982, walks into a McDonald’s (perfectly recreated from early 1980s designs, including weird cartoon trees), talks to the young manager and orders everything on the menu. How she paid for all those burgers, fries, and chicken nuggets is anyone’s guess, but since marketing has spoiled the fact that Sylvie ended up working at the same McDonald’s, maybe she was forced to do this in the first place to repay Fast food debt. Or she uses magic.

It has been confirmed Loki In a post-Easter Egg scene in Season 2, Episode 1, Sylvie did not remain in the Castle at the End of Time after killing Jonathan Majors’ “Remnant” in the Season 1 finale. After completing her mission, she, like Thanos, seeks her own personal peace by leaving and jumping to other parts of the timeline. Sylvie’s costume all but confirms that the McDonald’s scene takes place immediately after the deaths of “The Remainers.”
Why did Sylvie go to McDonald’s in 1982?
Questions that most people have when watching Loki The scene after the Easter egg in Season 2, Episode 1 is “Why McDonald’s, Why 1982.” For the first answer, you have to consider Sylvie’s tragic origin story.As she reveals in her book LokiIn the episode “Lamentis”, TVA attempted to prune her when she was about ten years old (but as a Frost Giant). She escaped and spent the rest of her life on the run, which, given the lifespan of a frost giant (at least five thousand years or so), means she may have been on the run for thousands of years. 1982 doesn’t seem to have any significance Loki But interestingly enough, Zaniac made his debut in Thor #319 in 1982 and went on to play a major role in Thor. Loki Season 2.
What’s more, it was the year’s significance to McDonald’s that brought Sylvie to 1982, as producer Kevin Wright revealed in an interview with Fast Company. The colorful design of McDonald’s in the 1980s was supposed to appeal to families, but apparently it worked for Sylvie: “When we look at it from the character’s perspective, this woman who has been on the run since she was a child has been traveling through time, a fugitive from time, living in the apocalypse, never being able to relax or slow down and enter a new and strange world. McDonald’s looked attractive in the 1980s“.
She never had the chance to experience her true formative years, which included simple Asgardian pleasures like McDonald’s. Sylvie seems to be interested in McDonald’s, as the fast-food giant is also popular with children. It’s a simple, almost innocent joy, the complete opposite of Sylvie’s life of fight and flight. Sylvie never got to enjoy anything either, she was always on her toes and had to move around a lot to stay on top of TVA. Being able to go to a place as innocuous as McDonald’s and not worry about how conspicuous she is in her Asgardian costume (she’s clearly not disguised) is a huge sign that she believes she’s got the TVA beat. Wright’s comments further reflected:
“You play a Little League game and then you go to McDonald’s. You go to McDonald’s for a kid’s birthday party. Someone like Sylvie will never experience that and be fascinated by it… …I was worried that McDonald’s would think we were trying to “do something that was satirical or made fun of them.” But what we’re selling is an honest story, a love letter to nostalgia written through the eyes of a character who sees all the novelty and joy in it. “
Why Broxton is Important in Marvel Comics
Sylvie’s choice of the small town of Broxton, Oklahoma, as her new home doesn’t seem to make any sense in Loki’s TV show lore, but it’s an important location in the Marvel comics, which suggests it might is some kind of connected place lore within wider Marvel. In the comics, Thor purchased land outside of Broxton (paid for with a truckload of gold) to rebuild Asgard after Ragnarok. The story takes place in Asgard’s new location on the outskirts of Broxton, which is where Lady Loki debuted in the comics after the God of Mischief stole Sif’s body.
Apparently, in the Marvel Universe, Thor and Valkyrie recreated Asgard in Norway, but the new Asgard is set in the United States on the page, setting the events of the siege around Broxton . In this case, Norman Osborn seeks to invade Asgard under the pretext of threatening the United States, but is actually seeking to increase his own power. Loki actually played a key role in the siege, convincing Osborn to orchestrate a tragedy at the Soldier Field football stadium, during a battle between Volstagg and the villains working for Osborn. Thousands of civilians died while he and Loki looked on.
Other notable events in Broxton include it being the death site of Cal Berson (aka The Snake), as well as the war between the Asgardians and Galactus, and finally, its destruction by the Hammer God , killing its inhabitants, as meant to draw Thor’s wrath.sylvie goes there LokiThe post-credits scene in the first episode of Season 2 has nothing to do with these events — though it could equally endanger the town and its people — but it fits the rich Marvel history.
Why doesn’t Sylvie time pass like Loki?
Loki The first episode of season two hints at the passage of time for Loki, as Sylvie kicks him back from the castle at the end of time, and then she kills the remnants. Because he was previously pruned – that is, removed from the timeline – his return to the timeline causes a glitch that allows him to randomly slide through time without warning. By the same logic, a time slip should also occur to Sylvie when she returns to 1982: OB explicitly reveals that Loki is “out of sync” with time, which can only happen when he’s pruned.The fact that Sylvie also trimmed herself makes this a plot hole Loki It must be solved in the future.
Loki Season 2 will continue on Disney+ next Thursday, October 12, at 9pm ET.
