Alright, it’s theory time again. I’ve waited a bit to digest this episode. I’m also ill, so some of this might be off the rails due to delirium
I’m not really sure where to start.
First of all, something is up with Hayward. 100%. He wants to kill wanda. My current prediction is that they were doing something with visions corpse that he wants to cover up. Wanda somehow found out and that’s why she stormed SWORD HQ to retrieve the body. I don’t think he’s the main villain, but I think he’s going to be an antagonistic force to our protagonists.
Our protagonists, which at this point, I’m going to say are Vision, Monica, Jimmy and Darcy. Wanda is a victim, but she’s not innocent either
Speaking of Monica, Darcy and Jimmy, their conversation about Wanda being the most powerful being in the universe has a couple of major points.
First of all, Monica seems to hate Captain marvel. We don’t know why. It could just be that Danvers never visited her in all this time, or something is going to happen in Captain Marvel 2. This was very intentionally put in.
Secondly, she calls an aerospace engineer. Of course, this could just be some random tech person. But I’ve seen a few people batting about blue marvel or Reed Richards. Now, this isn’t the first time we’ve seen aerospace mentioned. Remember the astronaut program from last episode? Call it reading too much into it, but this is screaming fantastic four setup.
I’m also slightly confused by one thing. We see Vision ‘wake up’ whatever his name is (I’m terrible with names of side characters). In promo clips, we’ve seen vision ‘wake up’ Agnes in what looks to be ep 6. My issue with this is that Agnes already seems perfectly aware of what’s going on, and even seems involved. So I don’t know what’s going on there
We also see the twins rapidly ageing , at their own volition. Clearly they are intertwined with this reality bubble like no one else, asserting the same control as Wanda. Whether they survive outside of it, remains to be seen. They could very well die and Wanda begins tearing open alternate universes looking for them, leading to the events of Doctor Strange 2. She might be successful and Wiccan and Speed appear in Multiverse of Madness. Really it’s too early to predict what will happen to them, but I think it’s safe to say they will meet the same fate as vision, whatever that ends up being
Now, obviously we have the elephant in the room. Even Peters as ‘Quicksilver’?. I’ve seen a bunch of wild theories saying this makes Fox’s X-Men canon, Prof X or Magneto will show up at the end, this is how they bring mutants in
I’m not jumping on that train yet. With how this show has gone, it is not going to be as simple as ‘Yeah Quicksilver from those other films is here now’
Remember, Wanda didn’t know who was at the door. She wasn’t expecting it. She didn’t recast Pietro.
Someone else did.
Either Evan Peters is the big villain of this show, or whoever is made him appear. The whole thing could just be a meta nod to the fox films and Even Peters is playing a nobody. It does show that whoever is in control, Wanda or otherwise, can’t resurrect people. Vision really is a reanimated bundle of wiring, as we saw in ep 4
We still don’t know who Ralph is, or what Agnes wants (although she is very concerned with the children). This show has so many moving parts and players, it’s impossible to know where it’s going. We’re going to have two storylines working simultaneously, SWORD and the hex, each with their own antagonists. Ep 7,8 and 9 court go absolutely anywhere at this point. This episode definitely threw up many more questions than answers, and that’s why I love this show
I think something that explains agnes in this episode and the trailer is that vision responded to agnes this episode that wanda or whoever is in controll of everyone wasn't expecting so it seemed like a glitch in reality.
my theory about episode 5 mephisto and agatha(agnes?) have access to wanda's power in return that they will continue manipulating reality...wanda's powers cannot bring back the dead so when mephisto wanted to bring back quicksilver he just opened the multiverse and brought the evan peters version...wild guess- now magneto is somehow gonna show up and want his son back...Also,reed richards was maybe the scientist referred to by monica and who she was going to call...
What an incredible episode that was. In my opinion: Mephisto is the one truly in control of everything and him and Agnes are manipulating Wanda (similar to the comic storyline mentioned a bunch earlier). Made a huge point to show Monica not like Captain Marvel, maybe because Captain Marvels radiation is blamed for her moms cancer Watchmen style? Aerospace engineer seems like an awesome nod to the F4. Evan Peters at the end is insane. Crazy world building happened in that one episode. I think Vision will be skeptical of Wanda but eventually Argnes and Mephisto are revealed as the true big bads, they will defeat them and Wanda will say goodbye to Vision. Here’s my big roll of the dice: I think we see Magneto by the end of this show.
Why are we theorizing Mephisto of all people? There hasn’t been any indication of another power besides Wanda until when QS showed up and she said she didn’t do that. I’m sure it’s said somewhere in the previous 555 comments, but I don’t rlly want to pick through them for a half-answer.
Name Hayward ring a bell? Like from Agents of Shield??? Hopefully you get it now.
If that’s in response to me, no idea. The latest I watched in AoS was until Coulson started doing those weird etching stuff, and they were over some big ancient well or something.

Nah it was just a general question. Wayward is Ward's sisters last name

A couple of reasons: 1. Agnes seems to be the MCU Agatha harkness (AGatha harkNESs), who was a servant of mephisto in the comics 2. There was a comic run where vision and scarlet witch settled down and had children, where it was later revealed they were actually fragments of mephisto s soul or something. Agatha harkness was a big part of that story as well. Wanda’s mind was wiped of these events, but when she remembered them that lead to House of M 3. It would just be really freaking cool

Yeah he is big sus. He was talking about how weaponizing vision is bad and stuff, but then Wanda had to break his corpse out of a lab, so like...yeah he’s most certainly a bad guy. Not to mention the missile drone.

Part of it is that Agatha Harkness is a witch that serves Mephisto and since the person that keeps popping in Wanda's and Visions house is named Agnes there is a theory that she is Agatha. There is also a theory that her "husband" Ralph could be Mephisto since we haven't seen him yet.
If I was Wanda I wound kick that QS out of the town immediately like what she did to Monica, when he asked Wanda “Who’s the popsicle?”. He met Vision when Vision was “born” at Stark Tower in Age of Ultron.

even if this quicksilver was the aou one why would he remember vision? Just like how vision can't remember his life before wandavision as both of them died. I firmly believe this is the xmen Quicksilver tho

I've seen people say on twitter things like "Holy ****" so I'm super intrigued 👀
bring back the dead so when mephisto wanted to bring back quicksilver he just opened the multiverse and brought the evan peters version...wild guess- now magneto is somehow gonna show up and want his son back...Also,reed richards was maybe the scientist referred to by monica and who she was going to call...

EP 5 was insane!!! 🔥🔥
Peters’ work in AHS, it wouldn’t shock me if he is actually Mephisto.
