The music and set pieces continue to be the best thing about the show, and this episode got especially creative with variations on the Loki theme. Listen for its appearances, both subtle and overt.
We notably stepped up the tension and smooth balance of action and storytelling, at the beginning of the episode at least, which gave me hope for the future of the season, though honestly the second and third act weren't as well-handled. I'm not one who enjoys watching awkward, stiff conversation, and the show-runners seem to be doing it intentionally (possibly because it's an approach other popular shows have taken).
Another thing the episode excelled at: giving a deeper glimpse into the psyche, emotions, and motivations of Miss Minutes, while still leaving room for much more to explore with her. And her animation quality is award-winning (or at least it should be).
