We're back with our chat about Loki Episode 3 "Lamentis". We discuss it in full spoiler filled detail from the reveal of the Variant to the cliffhanger and everything in between.

Loki Episode 3 "Lamentis" Synopsis

Head Writer: Michael Waldron

Episode Written by: Bisha K. Ali

Episode Directed By: Kate Herron

After interrogating Hunter C-20 for information on the Timekeepers, the Variant arrives at the Time Variance Authority headquarters to complete her mission, closely followed by Loki. He proposes a team up but the variant refuses.

When Judge Renslayer confronts them Loki uses a TemPad to take them both out of the perilous situation but into an apocalyptic situation on Lamentis-1. With the TemPad out of power they are stuck on Lamentis-1 which is due to be destroyed by a dying moon.

With meteors falling and gravity quakes becoming more frequent they need to charge the TemPad to escape the apocalypse. As they try to find a power source for the pad the Variant tells Loki she goes by the alias of Sylvie and she’s been running from the TVA her whole life. She also reveals that the Minutemen are all variants stolen from their time and made work for the Time Variance Authority.

After a run in with a lady and her big blaster, Loki and Sylvie sneak their way onto a train reserved only for the wealthy to get to the planet’s evacuation vessel - the Ark - the only power source powerful enough to charge the TemPad.

During their journey Loki gets drunk and is thrown from the train closely followed by Sylvie but the TemPad is broken in the fall. Their only hope now is to hijack the Ark that is shipping survivors from the planet to escape the apocalypse. Loki and Sylvie fight their way to the planetary escape vehicle but are unable to make it through the crowd in time. Their only option is to watch on as the Ark is cut in half by a falling meteorite as the moon begins it’s final descent towards to planet Lamentis-1.
