Nine days!)Īlso, Wanda’s powers are not absolute: She wasn’t able to stop her twin babies from crying with magic, and she also didn’t seem to be in control of their rapid aging from infants to 5-year-olds and then to 10-year-olds. (Let’s just pause here for a moment to marvel, heh, at the revelation that everything we’ve seen has unfolded in just nine days. in the first place? How did she know Vision’s body was there? And why did she take it all the way to Westview? And the footage he displayed certainly doesn’t tell the whole story: What caused Wanda to storm into S.W.O.R.D. HQ nine days ago struck Monica, and me, as a suspicious sin of omission, given that Hayward never bothered to tell Monica about it before sending her to New Jersey. Hayward’s revelation that Wanda stole Vision’s body from S.W.O.R.D.

That pretty well clinched it.Īnd yet there was also a pervasive feeling that we’re still not seeing the full picture here.
Then there was the whole Wanda-emerging-from-the-forcefield-and-causing-all-the-S.W.O.R.D.-soliders-to-turn-their-guns-on-Hayward thing, followed by her making-the-force-field-around-Westview-glow-a-menacing-red thing. Later, when Vision zapped Norm (Asif Ali) out of his sitcom stupor, a terrified Norm appeared to echo Monica’s experience: “She’s in my head! Make her stop. Monica Rambeau (Teyonah Parris) said that while she was inside Westview, she could feel Wanda’s voice in her head, which led director Hayward (Josh Stamberg) to declare that Wanda, once thought to be one of many victims, was in fact “the principal victimizer.” So much of “On a Very Special Episode…” was designed to reinforce the idea that what is happening in Westview is emanating entirely from Wanda. No, Really, Is Wanda the One in Control Here? Plus, super-aging twins, mysteriously reappearing accents, and bulletproof bellbottoms! Let’s get to the biggest burning questions. We’ve jumped into the 1980s, the era of “Family Ties” and “Growing Pains,” but the sitcom trappings are beginning to lose their rigidity, as Wanda’s grip on Westview - and Vision’s dawning awareness of his surroundings - begins to slip. In hindsight, the entire episode was laying the groundwork for a reveal that further cracks open not just this show, but the entire MCU.
