DOCTOR WHO S05E01 The Eleventh Hour "Just twenty minutes. Just believe me for twenty minutes. Look at it. Fresh as the day you gave it to me, and you know it's the same one. Amy, believe for twenty minutes."

“The show was always constructed to be a story on its own,” he said. “The story of Loki starting out as a villain and going through this adventure that turns him into a hero in his own way, doing the right thing, but losing anyway — that was always the complete story we wanted to tell.” “And we’ve got a Loki who, at the top of our show, assessed himself as a villain and, I would argue, at the end of our show, has become a little bit of a hero. There’s nothing more heroic to me than fighting for the right thing and losing. You see that washing over him as he’s there back at the TVA, after Sylvie has knocked back there. And then he gets up because that is what heroes do — they keep going. So I think that you’re gonna see a Loki that looks at himself in a different way certainly that at the top of this (in season 2).” - Michael Waldron

I think that the the journey of this season for Loki – at the top of the season, at the end of the first episode, he assesses himself to Mobius as a villain: “That’s what I am.” I think that you could argue that the journey of the season for him is about Loki becoming a hero in a lot of ways, and what’s more heroic than doing the right thing for the right reasons and losing anyways? Suddenly, he’s in the position that Steve Rogers found himself in after Infinity War, which is really compelling. So Loki sits there, in the time theater, with all of that washing over him, and I think that’s such a powerful moment when he decides to get up. He’s changed now and he is a hero, and now he’s going to go do what heroes do, which is, “Alright, there’s a threat coming. We’ve got to deal with it.” And then there’s the rug pull of, “Oh, shit, I thought things were bad before. Things are just getting started.” - Michael Waldron
