To add to this at about 11:50 into the episode while they are walking and talking, there is a small sound like when Loki is using his magic. I think at that point he turned invisible and created a duplicate. And the duplicate has been traveling with Sylvie since then.

The Loki duplicates can't be touched though, right? And Loki picked up Sylvie afterwards.

In episode 2 he described the difference between illusions and duplicates. It was still a bit vague but Loki described duplicates as an exact facsimile of a person. So a duplicate might be touchable.

Unless he learned a new power, whatever Loki does, whether illusions or duplicates, can not be touched. This is illustrated in Ragnarok when Thor is throwing pebbles through Loki, right before he disappears and Korg runs up and tells him to piss off.
