"Lamentis" is the third episode of the American television series Loki, based on Marvel Comics featuring the character Loki. It follows alternate versions of the character as they are stranded during an apocalypse. The episode is set in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU), sharing continuity with the films of the franchise. It was written by Bisha K. Ali and directed by Kate Herron.

"Lamentis" was released on Disney+ on June 23, 2021. Critics praised the interactions between Hiddleston and Di Martino and pointed out similarities between the episode and the series Doctor Who, though they were mixed on the series' decision to veer away from the larger narrative; some appreciated the increased focus on characterization while others felt it could impact in the series' overall pacing. The confirmation that Loki is bisexual was also highlighted in critic and fan discussions of the episode.

Before Loki and the Time Variance Authority (TVA) arrive in 2050 Alabama to apprehend her, the Variant, also known as Sylvie, projects an emulated memory into her captive TVA agent, Hunter C-20, to collect information about the location of the Time-Keepers, the TVA's supposed creators. Sylvie and Loki arrive at the TVA from Alabama. She attempts to visit the Time-Keepers while he tries to apprehend her. However, TVA Judge Ravonna Renslayer appears and attacks them both. Loki uses a TemPad to teleport himself and Sylvie away.

They arrive at 2077 , a moon that is about to be crushed by a planet, but neither can escape due to the TemPad having run out of power. They agree to work together because Loki has magically hidden the TemPad while only Sylvie knows how to recharge it. The two surreptitiously travel on a train bound for the ark, an evacuation spaceship, intending to use it to recharge the TemPad. However, Loki gets drunk and draws attention to himself, leading to guards fighting him and Sylvie. She follows him when he is thrown off the train and both discover that the TemPad was broken as a result. The two change their plan, traveling on foot in hopes of commandeering the ark to escape.
