- "It's simple. One of us will have to take our Throughput Multiplier down the gangway. Load the Throughput Multiplier into the launcher. Then, they'll need to hit the green button..."
"Green button."
"... and launch it towards the Loom. It will dock with the Loom, where it will scale the Loom's capacity to manage the backlog of branches that was created when... someone killed He Who Remains and released all those branches and ruined my life."
"Hang on. What's the connection between the Throughput Multiplier and the Loom?"
"The rings of the Loom aren't wide enough."
"That's correct. We need to make the rings bigger, so more branches can fit through." - ―O.B, Casey, and Loki discuss the plan to fix the Loom.[src]
The Throughput Multiplier was a device created by O.B., Casey and Victor Timely to retrofit the Temporal Loom and stop its meltdown.
History[]
Loki[]
"Breaking Brad"[]
O.B. worked on building his Throughput Multiplier with the help of Casey to stop the Temporal Loom's meltdown. However, O.B. discovered that they either needed a live scan of He Who Remains' temporal aura or Miss Minutes in order to override the lockdown and open the blast doors. If they couldn't find a solution fast, it wouldn't matter if they completed the device or not as it could never be launched.
"Heart of the TVA"[]
O.B. and Casey presented the Throughput Multiplier as the solution to fixing the Temporal Loom's meltdown by making the rings bigger so that it could handle the backlog of branches that were created when Sylvie had killed He Who Remains and unleashed the Sacred Timeline. Victor Timely, a 19th century variant of He Who Remains and who had based his work on O.B.'s and vice versa, provided O.B. and Casey with a prototype device that he'd created for his own Temporal Loom to solve the issue that the two were having with getting the Throughput Multiplier to work.
Ravonna Renslayer and Miss Minutes kidnapped Victor, intending to have him fix the Temporal Loom for them so that they could take the TVA for themselves. However, Loki and Sylvie rescued him and Miss Minutes was deactivated while Renslayer was pruned.
As a variant of He Who Remains, Victor's Temporal Aura was able to unlock the Temporal Loom, and he chose to launch the Throughput Multiplier himself, rejecting Loki's offer to do it. Mere moments after stepping through the blast doors, Victor was spaghettified by the intense temporal radiation, preventing Victor from launching the Throughput Multiplier and fixing the Temporal Loom which subsequently exploded.
"Glorious Purpose"[]
Using his Time Slipping, Loki attempted to help Victor Timely successfully launch the Throughput Multiplier on numerous occasions without success, changing parts of the scenario each time he did. Loki subsequently spent centuries learning everything that O.B. knew about mechanics, physics and engineering so that Loki could guide O.B. and Victor through combining the Multiplier and Victor's device as soon as Victor arrived at the TVA.
Under Loki's guidance, Victor was finally able to launch the Throughput Multiplier and widen the Temporal Loom's rings to handle the new branches. O.B. and Casey discovered that it was working: the Temporal Loom was integrating and weaving the new branches together and stabilizing. However, moments later, the Temporal Loom started overloading again. While they had succeeded in increasing the throughput, there were just too many branches for the Temporal Loom to handle. Victor realized that the branches of time were duplicating and expanding at an infinite rate. The Temporal Loom would never be able to accommodate for an infinitely growing Multiverse meaning that no matter how much they increased the throughput, it would never be enough. The Temporal Loom would always fail, and the new timelines would always die.
