With episode 5 of Loki, we were introduced to a whole new bunch of Lokis. After much trickery and shenanigans, Loki found himself pruned but, shockingly, not dead. Instead, he landed on a deserted place off the sacred timeline, a place where the TVA sends the variants they prune so they can’t cause any further damage to the timeline. While there, he was greeted by the Council of Lokis, comprised of Classic Loki, Boastful Loki, Alligator Loki, and Kid Loki, the apparent ruler of the realm %u2013 President Loki. But, what happened to Kid Loki at the end of Loki episode 5, “Journey Into Mystery?”

Early in Loki episode 5, Boastful Loki was taken care of when he revealed that he would betray the other Lokis by teaming up with yet another variant, President Loki, in order to take Kid Loki’s throne. A mass brawl broke out and Loki snuck out with Classic Loki and Kid Loki, who was clutching Alligator Loki. Kid Loki’s whereabouts and what happened to him, however, are up in the air. He, along with Classic Loki, decided to stay in their realm when offered the chance to leave with Mobius. He gifted Loki with the flaming sword, Laevateinn, then split.

Like all Lokis, he’s a survivor, but it would appear he’s perhaps a bit more of a survivor and more about his own self-preservation than some of the other Lokis, hence why he didn’t return to help in the fight against Alioth. Being a Loki, he either went to ground and is hiding our, or he snuck back to their headquarters to see if any of the other usurping Lokis were left alive.

In “Journey into Mystery,” Kid Loki isn’t quite there yet and he still wants a throne, which is why he stayed. Now that the Alioth has been vanquished%u2013and a number of the other Lokis potentially dead%u2013ruling his kingdom will be far easier. Still, he is just a kid, and now that his friends are gone, Kid Loki may find that ruling over an empire of nothing isn’t the glorious purpose he thought it would be.
