Also thought it was pretty cool how [SPOILER - highlight to read]: Wanda was shown 'creating' her home in this episode -- building block style: https://ibb.co/c6q599F
It was a nod to how her warp-powers often appeared in the HoM arc of the comics(when she had a similar mental breakdown): https://ibb.co/VQdXNj8

So, [SPOILER - highlight to read]: Agatha was drawn to the town after sensing the serious amount of magic Wanda unleashed. And yeah, the bit where she's shown "building" everything with her powers was awesome.

I do wonder what will happen about the [SPOILER - highlight to read]: two Visions though. As shown during the episode and reconfirmed in the mid-credits scene, Wanda didn't steal his body but actually created a new one, and Hayward has managed to revive the original. Maybe the two get merged?

So its been a [SPOILER - highlight to read]: fake Vision that Wanda created all along... Yeah interesting with the original being revived now. Although he may be more remade than revived.
^ [SPOILER - highlight to read]: Both Visions are fully powered by Wanda's own chaos magic... I see no reason why she couldn't unmake one, and/or merge them together down the road.

just finished the episode... pretty good.. well written.. good hearing the name drop. doubt agatha is the actual villain.. will know after the final 2 eps
I feel like this could be a likely outcome. End up with [SPOILER - highlight to read]: a complete Vision with all his memories etc. Only question is the Mind Stone itself. Agatha did say Wanda has the power of "creation", but actually recreating a functional Infinity Stone would be seriously OP even for what she's shown so far. That being said, she has destroyed the same Stone before.

Yeah, it would be insanely OP, but like you said: she could logically create that which she can destroy... but wouldn't that leave us with another potential 'paradox'? Namely [SPOILER - highlight to read]: two functioning mind stones in the same universe. Feel like that could throw off the delicate balance provided by the infinity stones.

Well, as far as I know, the original [SPOILER - highlight to read]: Mind Stone was destroyed by Thanos and the one they nabbed during the time heist was eventually returned to its own timeline by Cap. So, if Wanda did create a new one for Vision's sake it should be the only one in existence, unless I missed something somewhere. They seemed to have stuck something else into the head of the original who was revived/rebuilt by SWORD though, so maybe it won't even be necessary. Maybe they've been getting some new toys from Wakanda, because they appear to have acquired tools capable of damaging and repairing vibranium. So, maybe they also received some kind of vibranium super processor or something as well.

I really do think Agatha is the big baddie and thats unfortunate. People were claiming that they thought the cicada was Mephisto, but that apparently doesnt seem to be the case. At this point, I would be shocked if Mephisto is in this show.
Yeah, in light of what happened in the last episode, I now actually think there won't be anymore character reveals. Seems like Paul Bettany's comments in that interview were more a joking nod to [SPOILER - highlight to read]: the two Visions who will likely interact with each other during the finale. Could still be wrong though.

I think the director of SWORD is Mephisto. He escalates everything. He left the letter for Wanda from Viz. He guided her to the nexus of all realities to make that house. He's doing all this shit and it's going to end on a cliffhanger that will be echoing throughout the MCU. Spark the events for Spider-Man and Dr. Strange MoM.

They made it a point to bring up her husband "Ralph", if that goes nowhere, it's going to be stupid and a waste of time.
So I still suspect this "Ralph" is the real big bad here, even if we only get a couple minutes of him at the end. Which if course Mephisto being the most likely candidate.
Well [SPOILER - highlight to read]: that was a kind of lackluster ending. Agatha was the baddie. No Mephisto, no Xavier, no Arcania, no Dr. Strange. *sigh*
Anyways - [SPOILER - highlight to read]: What happened to the white Vision? So Dottie and the Mailman were nobodies. Book turned out to be the Darkhold in which we have already seen in AOS. Darcy just runs away. Woo stealing the phone was cheesy and cheap. Why does Fury need to be involved in every MCU offering?
The ending wasnt great, but I still loved the show.
Sidenote- I have West Coast Avengers 55 and 56 coming in the mail I got for cheap. Should be able to flip those fairly quickly.

It's so weird, Wandavision was a terrific show about a grief and coping, with a real heart so much MCU fare is missing, and yet [SPOILER - highlight to read]: it's going to be shit on by fans who built their own expectations with theories and cameos and comic book nebula. At the same time, having Evan Peters play "Fietro" is something that invited that sort of idea, so the stunt casting may have really teed up fans for nothing.
