The ending of Loki Season 2 Episode 3 had just left yet another cliffhanger for MCU fans about another revelation we're desperately searching for answers to before this season concludes, and that is, what is Miss Minutes' secret about Ravonna Renslayer?
Ravonna Renslayer was merely known as the Judge of the variants taken to the Time Variance Authority headquarters. In the first season of Loki, her character has mostly been about keeping the TVA in order.
But for what purpose? Well, signs point to a looming secret that's been kept by the cartoon clock. Without further ado, here's what Miss Minutes could be keeping from the former TVA judge.
Miss Minutes' Secret Will Reveal Ravonna Renslayer's True Identity
The key thing you have to remember about the TVA agents is that they bear no identity. Most of them barely have names, replacing their original birthnames with codes and numbers.
To think that He Who Remains purposely took these individuals from their own timelines to take charge of preventing the multiversal war from happening again.
And yet somehow, Renslayer doesn't seem to mind one bit, so why is that?
He Who Remains and Renslayer's Agreement
Well, this was revealed early on during the premiere of Loki Season 2, when Loki discovered a recorder hanging idly by during his time slipping incident.
In the tape, it was revealed that He Who Remains and Renslayer have had an agreement since the beginning: that they would rule the Time Variance Authority together.
The question remains, though, of when this record occurred. Considering that Loki discovered this while he was time slipping, it was difficult to pinpoint if he went to the future or the past.
This allegiance does explain why Renslayer seemed quite reserved about protecting the TVA and the Time-Keepers' reputations, as what she told Mobius even though he told her the truth:
"Someone created the Time-Keepers. They created this whole place. They gave us all purpose. I have to believe they had a reason... only one person gets free will: the one in charge."
Renslayer's Betrayal From Victor Timely
By Loki Season 2, Renslayer was told to meet Miss Minutes during a time when Victor Timely was still a young lad.
Her mission involved having to leave the TVA handbook with him to help him become the new ruler of the TVA once he grows up.
Renslayer did exactly this at the thought that this was what He Who Remains would have wanted from her.
Unfortunately, the allies she initially thought to have (Miss Minutes and Mr. Timely) betrayed her by throwing her overboard from the ship, all so that the cartoon clock would keep her creator to herself. So that they would rule the entity together.
By the end of the third episode, Miss Minutes, after not having her feelings reciprocated by Victor, decides to tell Renslayer a dark looming secret that He Who Remains has been keeping from her.

Ravonna Renslayer is Not the Person You Thought She Was
Renslayer's identity has yet to be explored in the series, but in Marvel Comics, she's essentially the Princess Ravonna in the Kingdom of Carelius.
At the time, Kang the Conqueror was not expecting to find a romantic pursuit on his 'conquering' journey. But the moment he set his eyes on the princess, all defenses and his forces to take over her kingdom faded away.
Though their love story wasn't a breeze, it did lead to Ravonna always switching sides from good (teaming up with the Avengers to face Kang) and bad (helping Kang defeat the Avengers).
Loki Season 2 Episode 4 didn't exactly confirm Renslayer's true identity, but it was implied that she had fulfilled a much bigger role in mind, with her exact words being that she's been doing all his dirty work for him while he sat in his throne.
As it stands, the secrets behind their identities still have some time left to be explored in the series, hopefully, before it ends. Rather, if Loki decided to leave it unresolved, then the MCU has one more thing to worry about.
