Loki Episode Four: 10 Biggest Questions

7. Will Loki Save His Friend?

Loki and Mobius have developed quite the love/hate relationship over the first three episodes of the show, and episode four saw this put to the most extreme test so far. After Loki seemingly betrayed Mobius at the end of episode two, following Sylvie back to the TVA, Mobius rightly felt hard done by.

The interrogation stepped up a few notches, and Mobius seemed to have run out of patience. However, there was a key moment when he called Loki an a**hole and a bad friend. To most people this would sting, but it was probably the first time Loki had ever been called or even considered anyone's friend.

The God of Mischief clearly held Mobius in a high regard before being pruned, as he took the time to get to know him, enjoyed their time working together, and seemed genuinely concerned when he learned that he was a Variant and was being lied to. They may have had a rollercoaster of ups and downs already, but there is no denying their fast bond.

When Mobius was pruned, the hearts of MCU fans everywhere broke. However, it was soon revealed that pruning isn't the death sentence everyone thought it was, and so instead Mobius will simply be lost in another forgotten timeline rather than dead.

Loki's first priority may be to save himself and get back to Sylvie, but surely he will piece together that his friend is in a similar situation and needs some help, right?
