Marvel Studios has made post-credits scenes a staple of its movies and TV shows, and today's Loki season 2 premiere is no exception. While we weren't expecting anything extra once this opening episode concluded, you'll definitely want to make sure you stick around.
The stinger takes us to Broxton, Oklahoma in the early 1980s to a McDonald's fast food restaurant. We see Sylvie arrive after leaving He Who Remains' Citadel at the End of Time and, as this appears to be a branched timeline, we'd guess the plan is for her to make a home for herself there.
For now, though, she just wants something to eat! However, she also seems legitimately happy to be free of the TVA and is keen to start a new life.
Of course, various promos have confirmed that Sylvie ends up working in this McDonald's and that the God of Mischief eventually tracks her down. What we don't know right now is how she ends up in the future right as Loki is pruned and saved from being torn apart by time. Hopefully, answers are coming.
This scene is also significant due to the fact it takes place in Broxton, a location fans of the Thor comic books will be very familiar with.
After the God of Thunder's rebirth, he recreated the City of Asgard close to the town and made it a new home to the Asgardians for some time. He later raised it to float a few feet above the ground and paid for the land with some Asgardian treasure, though it was destroyed during the events of Siege.
