THANK YOU
Chills were had when this popped upI love soft sweet civilian vision so much
LOOK AT THIS SHIT
So we still need to see what Evan Peters character is and what happened to Monica, who the missing person was, what is motivating Hayward to do what he is doing to Wanda, what happens with the visions, what happens to their sons, what exactly is the magic book, and what significance does the Scarlet Witch Chaos Magic have to Agatha... that's a lot for one more episode.
That childhood bombing scene had to be by far the darkest moment in the entire MCU. Damn Feige.
Yep! LOL. Pages and pages of theories, that all amount to a really clever joke.
and said she stole Vision's body....
I think her end game is to resurrect her mother. she doesn't looks like she wanted to kill her in the opening. and she keep asking how wanda bring people back from the dead
Didn't the sign say Eastview? Or am I misremembering things. Was Eastview the fake town?
I saw that end credits scene and IMMEDIATELY thought of you lmao
Well played
Fucking loved the whole SWORD sequence. Hayward making her stay out in the lobby while he rushed to set up the theater of 'visions operation'....his words consistently guiding her into anger...planting the seed of revivifying Vision in her mind....and all of it being thwarted by a beautiful callback to Wanda and Vision's moments in Infinity War. Having it all hinge on "I feel only you" was wonderful.

CAN'T FUCKING WAIT TO SEE THAT FOR REAL. No more teasing, I just wanna see her in full outfit lol.
I totally get that. The only problem is, there are victims here. Thousands of them.
I was rocking with the theory that the citizens of Westview were under some sort of hypnotic effect and they weren't actually experiencing what was happening. Then episode 4 happened. And since then, the show has told us, over and over again, that the people under Wanda's magic are aware of their bodies being controlled and are essentially being traumatized.
I don't see how Wanda escapes repercussions for this when all is said and done. And I'm wondering if that's the setup for Doctor Strange 2.
But other than that, I overall enjoyed the episode. And I wish actually giving us character exposition was something the MCU did more of.
Woo asked the cops where they were from if not westview and they were like ".....eastview."
Westview does exist. It's where Vision bought a plot of land so they could have a house together.
Which doesn't really add up with where they were in Infinity War, does it? They were together, but only just figuring out that they worked well.
This is what I'm thinking a lot about. That and Doctor Strange is supposed to show up too, right?
Is the last episode going to be longer or the same length?
Agatha draining all her coven was pretty bleak too.
That is sort of insulting.
Wanting to expand on and work on Wanda is brilliant, and definitely something the show should do. The way it approached it was hamfisted, dull, and clunky.
The problem is not that the plot did not move forward, it is that the singular character-driven episode we are bound to get is a mess.
Honestly, without Hanh, I think it could have worked.
Wait, what was this apparition? A future self of Wanda?I love soft sweet civilian vision so much
LOOK AT THIS SHIT
Oh please. How on earth was the exposition clunky? This entire show is built around Wanda's grief just because YOU didn't NEED this episode doesn't mean this episode wasn't needed.
Comic book fans are the worst sometime.
Wanda watching Malcolm in the Middle is the closest we're gonna get to seeing Bryan Cranston in The MCU.
Okay so did Vision like buy a house in Westview for them before he died(At first I though this didn't make since then I realized he wasn't ever on the run like Wanda) and Heyward decide have someone leave it in her car? Or did some other outside force put in her car or even made up the deed? I'm thinking the former but just want to know.
Also the episode was great as like episode 4 it filled in some questions only on a grander scale then episode 4. The only thing I didn't like was no Monica in the episode just one week removed from getting her powers.

Excellent episode. It really handled her grief and trauma a lot better than how "Endgame" handled Thor's with turning his weight gain and alcoholism into a joke for the audience. There was a small part of me hoping Agatha when she said "You're the Scarlet Witch" was going to say "You're a mutant".
Agatha specifically said that she possessed him so she had to get him from somewhere
Agreed. Like jfc thia was such a good episode for Wanda's character and Elizabeth acted her ASS off. People labeling this ep as "unnecessary" are really missing the point of this show.
That's a very pessimistic outlook. I wouldn't be surprised if they try that angle for the start of the episode, but now we have a functioning real vision body and a copy of visions consciousness generated by Wanda that can't exist outside of the hex because the body is an illusion created by her magic.
Add the two together and boom, a way to get her a real vision back.
It's not that I feel like it was all emotionless, it just felt so redundant. We knew a lot of the information, and it would have been great to stew in it, but not when Agatha is touring us through everything, repeating everything that's happening in front of us and belaboring the points. It weakens the impact.
There's a lot of value in those scenes, sure, but the execution just left a lot to be desired for me. I knew we'd inevitably reach the point where we let Wanda reflect on the trauma she's been dealing with, but to go from traumatic scene, to traumatic scene, to traumatic scene, only stopping to let Kathryn Hahn take stock of what we literally just saw, felt like the opposite of "letting the story breathe."
You could keep everything here, but maybe frame it as Wanda mentally taking stock of what led to this moment in Agatha's basement. She's under a spell and reliving the moments we saw here, maybe with Agatha's voice creeping in from off screen, goading her, but never repeating what we're seeing or hamming it up when we just watched a child lose her parents to an explosion. At the end, Wanda hears her children calling out for help in the distance and she rushes out into the street for the confrontation with Agatha. Literally keeps everything that worked in this episodes and jettisons the hamfisted delivery method that made it feel so abundantly clear that the writers were saying "and this is the episode where we spell it all out!"
I wanted to feel the impact of those flashbacks. I wanted to stew in the heartache and the anger that Wanda was reliving. Instead, I felt like I was watching a slideshow presentation delivered by a professor who is rushing through the beats to get to the end of class.
You did the exact thing I said and went for the pointless shade throwing. I didn't dislike the episode because "where's muh CG battles," shit, that's the whole reason I like this show in the first place. It was a slow, methodical, tense drama about a character working through grief and there was a central mystery behind it all. An episode dedicated to exposition is fine, but only if it was handled well, which I didn't feel like this was.
For fucks sake, man. Do you all really think that if you don't love and agree with everything about the show then you're some ignorant asshole with a short attention span? Entertainment is subjective, and this episode doesn't work for me, not because of what it set out to do, but because of how it did it. That's not ignorance on my part, it's my opinion. Knock off the echo-chamber, dog piling, ad-hominem shit.
I'm out of this thread for now. Enjoy the episode, y'all.

I was looking for these pages weeks ago, thank you. I definitely think this will be one of the final scenes.
Or shit... are we getting Hex Vision vs White Vision?!?!?!
So essentially Vision's body is a Weapon now right or at least that's how I interpreted it.
Also damn this episode was dark as hell all the way through to the very end, I really don't know how I will not be chomping at the bit for more after one more episode but we will see!

He has something against supers, so maybe to motivate everyone involved to kill her? Also, this means she didn't violate the Sokovia Accords, although maybe taking over a town probably does that.
She clearly doesn't have the ability to tear holes in reality, she spends the entire episode basically complaining that she did all the book stuff, but this new girl has all the raw talent.
Still possible Wanda I guess tore him from another reality, but everything about this episode suggests, if he is Fox Pietro, Agatha isn't responisble for bringing him there.
well said. loved this episode.
hey they gotta cast dr doom sooner or later :)
