Running through all the movies leading up to Endgame, and watching Thor, Cap, then Avengers, I was confused by the Tesseract's presence.

It is first seen in Thor, which occurs in the 2000s, but it first occurred in MCU in 1940s Europe, and discovered by Stark after WWII. How does it get from SHIELD custody, to Asgard and back to SHIELD? Or is this simply a plot hole?

I have NOT seen Captain Marvel yet, so if it is better explained there, just say "you'll see in Captain Marvel"

The tesseract changes hands so much and the timeline that it does is so confusing.

Captain Marvel makes it even more confusing.

WWII, when Red Skull had it, is before the 90's. Red Skull mentions that this was at one time in Odin's possession.

Stark got it. Stark and Mar-Vel worked on Pegasus together and it's easy to deduce that this is How Mar-Vel got it.

The 90's, when Goose puked it up on Fury's desk, is before the 2000's, and when Fury/SHIELD gets it.

The 2000's is when SHIELD has it.

Loki snatches it from Shield in Avengers, and Thor takes it to Asgard.

Where's the plot hole?

And how is that confusing? It's ridiculously straightforward for so many people to be so befuddled by it.

Because it has a pretty clear and straightforward timeline.

small errors in the nits, but the order of events (and the overall) timeline is correct

It's in Asgard in Thor 3, but that's because Thor and Loki take it to Asgard after the Avengers.

the shit looks so much like the Tesseract I thought it was heavy foreshadowing. Ok, that clears that up and actually makes sense, even though it wasn't totally clear how it ended up in Eastern Europe in the first place.

Although, based on bwood's comments, will be interesting to see how Cap Marvel plays it.

Planting the Tesseract on Midgard with minimal security.

Apparently doing a terrible job of raising Loki (LOL)

Apparently also doing a terrible job of raising Hela

Thor himself didn’t pull himself together as mature adult until Thor I at the climax and still made poor decisions like automatically fighting Cap and Tony instead of just talking it out in Avengers LOL

Also knowing Loki could cast illusions, Odin should have had a security protocol to keep Loki from so easily impersonating him

I was in Norway first in the hands of humans who worshipped the Asgardians.

Then taken by Red Skull in the first Cap movie. Then recovered by Howard Stark and used by shield in some capacity up to the 1980's and 1990's where its used in project Pegasus as seen in Captain Marvel.

Then Loki steals it in the first Avengers movie from Shield, after he's defeated in NY, it's in Asgard. Loki takes it before Asgard gets destroyed and then coughs it up to Thanos in Infinity War.

So it went from Norway to Shield to Asgard to Thanos.

It looks a lot like the tesseract in the first Thor. That was the confusion. Once I saw what it was, the rest made sense.
