the ****ing Darkhold!!! More powerful than the Sorcerer Supreme! Monica has a meeting with Fury! “Vision” is out there somewhere! I don’t know how they can continually seem to “get it right” time after time.
Spoiler!
oh that was a reference to Nick Fury? Ok I guess. Why cut away like it's some amazing character they didn't want to reveal?
She'd recreate Vision and magic herself some kids, then she'd have to let them go in what like 2 hours of TV time. Oh yeah, and it would rip your heart out.
I'd have thought it would suck ass.
But sure enough.
The acting, music, editing and production were all really well done. It was a big ask, but they pulled it off. I'm legitimately impressed.
Spoiler!
It was all in there if I was paying attention, but I was so engrossed it took me by surprise.
Man, the saying goodbye bits were rough. What great scenes.
Obviously a lot of unanswered questions.
Spoiler!
Obviously Monica is hooking up with Fury, but WTF?
Where did the kids go. Obviously they are still around. Is this the Mephisto business? Is Vision there too? Agatha is still in the hex, whereever it went. I presume that's where the kids and Vision (?) are?
Obviously White Vision. If Vision activated his memories, wouldn't he be in love with Wanda?
I was hoping for more tie in with DS2, but that was probably too much ask.
Only real gripe is:
Spoiler!
WTF was Heyward doing? Did he really think going in was a great idea? For a guy that's been expertly pulling a bunch of strings, that was dumb.
Lol. This is the one major thing that annoyed me. So Quicksilver just ended up being some dude living in Westview that Agatha enhanced to fuck with Wanda? And the actor they hired to play him just happens to be the same Quicksilver of the side of Marvel that everyone is waiting to make their entrance into the MCU that apparently won't be? This was a high level troll by Fiege and Co.? Dick move, Marvel. (Does make you wonder how Agatha was aware of the appearance of the "other" Quicksilver, though)
Also, in that second post credit, Scarlet Witch looked a tad unstable, no? She's flying through the Darkhold while hearing her kids scream for help. Where did they go? I guess there is your connection to Dr. Strange 2
I started watching from Episode 1 last night and it's just crazy how everything was right there from Episode 1, from Agnes saying that she was "Charmed" to meet Wanda, before asking her a ton of questions which upon re-watch, weren't "neighborly" questions but questions about her powers.
The series also happened to introduce S.W.O.R.D, Agatha Harkness, White Vision and Monica Rambeau's Photon without being obvious about it while also including fan favorites Darcy and Jimmy Woo.
It was a well-executed and well-planned series and I can't wait to see Wanda in Dr. Strange 2, especially given that she's more power than Strange himself.
Spoiler!
I wonder where White Vision went? He had all of Vision's memories, so you'd think that he'd not only go back to Wanda but maybe check in with what's left of The Avengers team. But whatever the case, Vision is back!
Can someone explain how White Vision has the same powers and strength as regular vision without the Mind Stone?
The scene with Wanda's Vision talking him down was incredible. Reminded me of Kirk talking the computer into destroying itself in that one episode of Star Trek. Some incredible writing there. [Reply]
I didn't make the connection of Jimmy Woo doing the trick with his business card when he first met Monica to Scott Lang teaching him that, lol.
And Clay, it's stated that the mind stone gives Vision his powers in the MCU, but in the comics he always had those abilities. So, I'm not sure? White Vision would have been no match for the other if that were the case. [Reply]

It was mentioned in Episode 7 that merely being in Wanda's presence is what "activated" White Vision.
In the Finale
Spoiler!
Wanda's recreation of Vision gave White Vision all of his original knowledge and memories. Whether that's enough to override his programming remains to be seen but I'd imagine that someone like Bruce and probably Wanda herself can fully restore Vision.
