    spells in place in the basement. The rune spells i think. Only Agatha's powers work there.

    Agreed. Episode deserves a rewrite. Didn't realize beating Thanos could have been so easy with a different approach.

    Thanos was caught off guard by her power too. I think Thanos on guard would not have had as much trouble with Wanda at the level she was at then.

    For geek talk, magic runs with its own rules...could be like superman being vulnerable to magic.

    I thought it was explained in Ultron that Wanda/Pietro were not exactly "normal" to begin with.

    I really liked how they used her past to tie in all the various shows that WandaVision was patterned after in the first three episodes. Made those first three episodes feel more meaningful knowing the why as opposed to the producers just having fun, which is what it felt like when first watching.

    Could someone explain the mutant hint for me? What was in the episode that indicated possible mutants? I think I missed that.

    Personally I don't think anything hinted at that. But the theory is, we witness her use her powers BEFORE interacting with an infinity stone.

    The whole episode was about Agatha trying to figure out how Wanda got so powerful.

    maybe the takeaway is Wanda is a naturally-born witch whose powers drastically increased through interaction with the infinity stone, yet still they are witch-based, so Agatha’s rune spell in the basement (which seems to require luring into a closed space) still managed to trump Wanda.

    in any event, they were obviously trying to tell us something, and with the direct ties to the Infinity War movies, I dont feel like they are ignoring her powers then.

    That said, why wouldn’t the Hex collapse if Wanda lost her powers in the basement?? :)
    I guess its auto sustaining world building. Agatha did say something about that.

    Good plot hole spotting but as we saw in Dr. Strange, spells can self-sustain or even be assigned to objects (relics).

    I read somewhere they are supposed to drop some massive cameo at the end of this season which I guess is Friday. Anyone have a clue who that is?

    spoiler it I guess if you need to if it already leaked.

    My theory:

    At the end of Endgame, Captain America was supposed to travel back in time and put the stones back to their original spot or something like that. My guess is Agathas powers actually come from captain America going back in time and giving it to the original witch’s or to Agatha in some way. The stone she has that gives her powers is obviously the purple one which is why she has that color in her power streams or whatever you want to call it. I think the cameo will be Cap setting off the events by giving Agatha the stone directly or indirectly.

    That rumor (I think) originates from this Paul Bettany quote:

    "Of all of the characters that we were trying to keep secret, a lot of them got out through leaks, there is one character that has not been revealed," said Bettany, who plays Vision in the unique Marvel Studios sitcom. "It's an actor that I've longed to work with all of my life. We have some amazing scenes together and the chemistry between us is, I think, extraordinary. It's just fireworks on set. So, I'm really excited for people to see that stuff."

    Which now, in hindsight, I think it's pretty obvious... he's just talking about himself. Paul Bettany as Vision and Paul Bettany as white Vision.

    Outside of MAYBE Dr. Strange - I'm not expecting any big surprise cameos from an existing MCU person. Not in a 50min finale.

    I binged all 8 episodes over the past week. I'm not as hyped about the Agnes reveal. I thought it would be bold for Scarlet Witch to be causing the problems and in a way a villain anti-hero that was emotionally broken into causing this alternate reality. But I guess it's Disney and they can't have their heroes look vulnerable.
