Loki: 5 burning questions for Episode 5
By Mark Lynch
After episode 4 of Disney Plus’ Loki, these five questions need to be answered in episode 5.
In episode 3 of Disney Plus’ Loki, Loki and the Variant Sylvie were stuck on a planet doomed to be destroyed. Along the way, they argued but also learned that neither is what the other assumed they were. In fact, they had a lot in common. All of that didn’t mean anything in the end. They both ended up stranded on the planet with no hope of escaping.
The first thing that this writer wondered was how they’d get saved? That question was answered in Episode 4 (as were many others). “The Nexus Event” also left the viewers with plenty questions that need to be answered. These five are the most important.
5. What does Ravonna know?
Ravonna Renslayer seems to know more than she’s letting on. In the beginning of this episode, we see that she was once a TVA field officer. She was also the one who took Sylvie from her home reality and eventually set the Variant on this path. Without this event, Sylvie wouldn’t have become the person that she is.
What we need to know is that she is one of the few who knows about Variants being real people and not creations of the Time Variance Authority. Ravonna has also met the Time-Keepers (if they are who they say they are). It’s strange that she would be given a promotion after messing up so badly. Nevertheless, here we are.
There’s something funky going on with her. We need to find out what it is.
