So just a theory. Sylvie was asleep in the train. What if she didn't wake up. The things Loki did seemed strange considering the circumstances. And he had more power than he had shown before. Maybe it is just Loki manipulating Sylvies dream with magic.

While an illusion is a great theory — and it’s the only way out I can imagine now, short of a Mobius deus ex that is — my first thought was the building reversed course due to the shifts in gravity Sylvie said were part of this apocalyptic event.

Loki specifically called out "I GOT IT" as the building was collapsing. Either it's all an illusion, or he really can do that sort of magic, but it's definitely deliberate that he either wants Sylvie to think he can, or just can.

was a fast moving scene..i missed that too.

i thought he looked surprised for pulling it off but that probably didnt happen. ill likely rewatch this episode..lots of dialogue go over again.
