The Disney+ show’s second season is running on fumes—so it’s time to let the delightful odd couple at its core take over the whole thing.
, its sophomore effort has set out apace, hoping to maintain that goodwill. But in the four episodes that have aired so far, the show’s momentum has waned as quickly as it picked up, with the cast hurtling from one crisis to the next. And within the chaos are two things: a messy, lackluster story and a great friendship keeping it afloat.
The main source of continuity between this seemingly disconnected string of events is that Loki and Mobius face each challenge together. And in doing so, they have become the show’s saving grace. They’re an unlikely double act—a troubled, hot-tempered Norse God, and the principled, work-focused middleman—that adds a much-needed lightness to the series, thanks to Wilson and Hiddleston’s natural chemistry and quick-witted humor.
Mobius and Loki’s friendship is, crucially, one without judgment—something Loki hasn’t experienced outside from anyone but his brother, Thor . In Episode 2, Mobius punches former TVA agent Hunter X-5, Brad Wolfe , midway through an interrogation about Sylvie’s whereabouts. It’s a rare outburst from Mobius, who lashes out after Brad calls him out for having zero interest in returning to the life he led in the original timeline.
