This episode was as bonkers as I had hoped it would be. Lokis betraying Lokis (of course, President Loki was just another variant and not our Loki) in a chaotic realm undoubtedly chock-full of Easter eggs. But the best part was Richard E. Grant chewing all of the scenery, from beginning to end, stealing every scene from Tom Hiddleston (quite a feat, that!). However, the meat and bones of the episode was focused on the growing relationship between our Loki and Sylvie as well as how both of them have become more empathetic and not just towards each other. I can't wait to see what they've discovered beyond the guard dog Goliath.
Ravonna appears to truly not what's actually going on with the TVA, although I suppose it's still possible that she does know but that would be one hell of a long deception that would include the viewer when she's not around anyone. Honestly, it makes more sense that she simply doesn't know considering she started off as a hunter before becoming a judge and I don't think she learned the truth along the way prior to the events of the show.
As for the Easter eggs, the only ones that picked up on were the Thanos helicopter (
), the statue head of the Living Tribunal, and the various references to The Avengers. Oh, and the title of the episode! Embarrassingly, I had to look up USS Eldridge to remind myself of its supposed connection with the Philadelphia Experiment. What other Easter eggs did people pick up? And what was with those weird peacock-like creatures?!
