Loki episode 4 is easily the best episode of any Marvel TV show released to date. Tom Hiddleston teased as much before the show’s premiere, singling out episodes 4 and 5 when asked which are the show’s best. The first Loki post-credits scene dropped after the episode, something we also expected. Credits scenes are signature features for Marvel's MCU movies, but it’s more challenging to pull them off in TV shows. We were trained in WandaVision and The Falcon and the Winter Soldier to expect post-credits scenes only in the second half of the season. That’s why Loki episode 4 seemed like the right candidate.

It turns out the first Loki credits scene isn’t only important for the show itself. Marvel might have preemptively fixed a significant problem with Spider-Man: No Way Home and future Avengers films with just a few seconds of footage placed at the end of a fantastic Loki episode. We’ll explain everything, but first, the usual spoiler warning: Major Loki and Spider-Man 3 spoilers follow below.
