After these Avengers: EndgameThe MCU’s leap into television has had its fair share of ups and downs, but the one that started it all is still one of their best. Disney+’s WandaVision Represented a huge risk, but the Westview experiment was a resounding success, spawning two different spin-off shows that took off from its conclusion. WandaVision‘s finale is a fitting climactic exclamation point to an extraordinary series.
In an episode of shocking revelations, meaty superhero fights and tear-jerking character moments, WandaVision brought one of the most fascinating chapters in the MCU timeline to a sharp close, and helped pave the way for the then-upcoming Phase 4 MCU releases, including exploring magic and the multiverse more in Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness. This is like these WandaVision Story ended.
Agatha Harkness’ powers and true plan
When Kathryn Hahn dropped the Agnes act and became the Agatha Harkness everyone suspected her to be, the villain revealed some key details about the Westview anomaly. The hex itself was created entirely by Wanda Maximoff; Agatha just came along and threw herself into the sitcom to keep tabs on the sad superhero.
Episode 9 confirms that Agatha’s true power (her “Thing“) is absorbing the magic of others – a technique she previously used to wipe out her coven. Recognizing Westview as the work of a powerful mage, Agatha wanted to claim Wanda’s power for her own. Even after the discovery that Wanda was empowered Through dangerous Chaos Magic, Harkness still lusts after the Scarlet Upgrade.

Agatha shows Wanda how broken Westview is and promises to stabilize the spell, offering eternal happiness in exchange for the power of the Scarlet Witch. to hammer her point, Agatha releases the Westview residents from their trance. Norm, Herb, Dottie and the other villains try Wanda to break the hex, but, ever the troublemaker, Agatha reminds Wanda that no hex means no family, and deviously gives her a deal as the only solution.
Why Hayward Created White Vision
Agatha is not the only one WandaVision Villain – The director of SWORD Hayward also makes his final game. yet The last episode’s post-credits scene introduced White VisionThe finale saw Hayward politely explain his intentions to a captured Jimmy Wu. Heyward Will Be Vision to kill what Wanda created. He will then collect White Vision from the ruins, tell the world Wanda made it, and take the glory for capturing a valuable asset. This accounts for the doctored CCTV footage purporting to show Wanda stealing Vision’s remains.
This plot gets Hayward off the hook for rogue and builds his own personal vision, while also making him the proud owner of Earth’s only vibranium synthesis. Look back at WandaVisions SWORD HQ flashback, Hayward may have provoked Wanda into resurrecting Vision all along, as not only did he require some red magic to jump-start his Frankenstein’s monster, but forcing Wanda to revive Vision herself is the only way to cover up his Crimes.
The Legend of the Scarlet Witch
After watching reruns of Wanda’s past, Agatha Harkness wondered that Wanda was the legendary Scarlet WitchBut episode 9 elaborates on what the ominous discovery entails. As suspected, the Scarlet Witch is a mythical figure among magic users, but one who is “Forged” instead of being born. This means that Wanda’s fate is never set in stone, despite her displaying magical gifts as a child. It means that the combination of magical talent, infinity stone juice, and personal grief lit the fire that Created the new Scarlet Witch.
According to Agatha, the Scarlet Witch has a dedicated chapter in the Darkhold, confirming that the book in her basement is indeed the ancient artifact of Marvel lore. Furthermore, Agatha tells Wanda that she is stronger than the Sorcerer Supreme. The line elevates Scarlet Witch above Doctor Strange and The Ancient One in the MCU’s power rankings, but also connects the kind of magic practiced by Wanda and Agatha to the mystical arts wielded by the Sanctums.
The two methods are not the same, but they are clearly close cousins. A bonus of being the Scarlet Witch is no pesky incantations, which slightly hint at how Wanda’s powers work in the MCU. It seems that her red magic is all magic work, she just doesn’t have to sing the verses of Macbeh first, like an everyday witch.
Quicksilver’s Boehner
WandaVision Fans with Mephisto, Magneto and Doctor Strange on their final episode bingo cards may have been disappointed, but those who predicted double entenders can sleep well tonight. Evan Peters’ Quicksilver has been a curiosity ever since his mind-boggling WandaVision Debut. The character was clearly not Wanda’s doing, and Monday’s Agatha Alleys suggested that Pietro was under Harkness’ spell instead, but what is Quicksilver’s true nature, and why did he look like the guy from the X-Men Movies?

Thankfully, Monica Rambeau is on the case. After being caught snooping by Quicksilver, she and the speedster tussle in Pietro’s man-cave. There, Monica discovers Quicksilver is actually a Westview resident known as Ralph Bohner – the forever absent husband Agnes referred to. Because Agnes can’t manipulate people as easily as Wanda, she uses an enchanted necklace to Make the Westview man-child play the part of Pietro Maximoff. Thanks to her energy powers, Monica identifies the necklace as the problem, and breaks the beads to break the spell.
Scarlet Witch transforms and vision outsmarts itself
WandaVisions final battle pits Agatha Harkness against Wanda Maximoff, and Westview Vision against White Vision. It comes as no surprise when the good guys emerge victorious, but the married couple win their respective fights by very different means. When Agatha promises to fix Westview in exchange for Wanda’s power, the Scarlet Witch appears to give inCast bolts of Chaos Magic for Harkness to absorb. In truth, Wanda is secretly scattering runes around the Westview barrier – a throwback to the basement scene where Agatha used the same trick.
Powering down, Agatha is helpless, allowing Wanda to finally embrace the Scarlet Witch’s chaotic power and transform, gaining a new costume in the process. Also worth noting is how Wanda uses her spooky mind trick Avengers: Age of UltronAnd hits Agatha with a car, echoing her battle against Iron Man Captain America: Civil War.
Vision’s use of philosophy is much more suited to his character than plain old violence. It seems that Hayward programmed White Vision to kill his twin, but failed to appreciate the literal mind of a computer. By using a more complex version of the old broom analogy (if you replace the handle and then the brush, is it the same broom?), Vision is able to Trigger an existential crisis in his opponent.
Westview is released and Wanda becomes a villain
Agatha was lying all along when she promised Westview could be fixed, but Wanda still faces a tough emotional choice – free Westview, or save her family. This moment is essentially the moral crux of WandaVision. Is Elizabeth Olsen’s character strong enough to fulfill her moral duty and save the innocent people of Westview? Wanda eventually relents, of course, and Westview is restored to its former state. WandaVision‘s ending confirms that the people of Westview remember EverythingAnd they are (understandably) a little annoyed.
The headlines read – “Avenger witch holds city hostage to recreate sitcoms.” Although the show does not explicitly portray her as a villain, Wanda temporarily deprives citizens of their freedom and their lives, and although this is not actually followed in her Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness The role, she fully embraces the villainous side of her throughout the film. She apparently also reflected her own pain and grief onto them while they slept, a unique act of villainy.
Vision is reborn in the MCU
If the cycle of life and death is a recurring theme in WandaVisionIt’s vision itself that comes to exemplify that. In their final moments together, Westview Vision asks Wanda who he is. Wanda responds by revealing that her reborn husband was crafted from wires, blood, and bone, but it was the power of the Mind Stone inside Wanda that brought Vision back to life in the Hex. When the barrier falls, this vision is gone, most likely forever.

Fortunately, its replacement is already out of the packaging. During the fight against White Vision, Westview Vision unlocks the memories repressed by SWORD. Touching the head of his pale counterpart, it’s almost as if Vision is transferring himself (the bits that matter, at least) into the new body provided by Hayward. The Reborn Synthesis proclaims “I am vision“And flies away. Vision’s return is further teased by the final farewell, when Wanda’s soon-to-be-deleted husband wonders what he”May be next.“
Why White Vision left Westview
While the rejuvenated White Vision doesn’t hang around, it’s clear that the character has some internal programming issues to work through. In a matter of minutes, the Synthezoid went from being a one-game killing machine devoted to SWORD, to suddenly having his head filled with memories that were simultaneously his own, and not his own. The process was enough to stop White Vision’s violent rampage, but there is obviously a way to go before he becomes a reliable ally.
Vision no doubt feels overwhelmed by the sudden influx of memories, and conflicted about his true nature, which explains why he runs away instead of sticking around to help. Perhaps he will seek information about Tony Stark or Ultron, both of whom can be considered as his creators. Maybe Vision will visit the places he saw in the old Vision’s memories, revisit Savoy, Avengers’ Ax, etc., desperately trying to piece together his new persona. The upcoming Vision series should help answer some of these questions.
Agatha survives (and may become Wanda’s mentor)
Defeating Agatha with a combination of well-placed runes and the overwhelming power of the Scarlet Witch, Wanda chooses not to kill her downed opponent. Instead, Agatha’s punishment is to play Agnes on a full-time basis. Wanda tricks the witch into believing she’s Westview’s stupid neighbor, and in doing so also sets up her MCU future, which is explored in Agatha all along.
Agatha warns Wanda that her magical expertise will be required in the future. The newly christened Scarlet Witch reassures Harkness that she will be summoned if the opportunity arises. In Marvel Comics, Agatha Harkness is Wanda Maximoff’s mentor and teacher, and their relationship is much more friendly. After the death of Wanda in Doctor Strange and the Multiverse of MadnessThis can be a bit more difficult.

When Wanda transforms into the Scarlet Witch proper, the villain ominously warns that something terrible is unleashed. The line is just line up Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness to Explore Wanda as she truly embraces the villainThe Scarlet Witch.

The boys are in a different universe, and she will figure out how to travel the multiverse to get to them.
The Skrull mid-credits scene
Monica Rambo does not play a huge role in WandaVisions finale. She takes a bullet or four for Billy and Tommy, revealing an ability to phase through objects and remove their kinetic energy. But by far, Monica’s biggest moment comes in the mid-credits scene, where a Skrull requests Monica’s presence in the sky. The agent is most likely working for Nick Fury and Talos, as the duo have a SWORD-like organization after the events of Spider-Man: Far From Home.
WandaVisionThe mid-credits sequence also sets up Marvel’s Secret invasion. The friendly Skrulls were clearly worried about something, and the Secret invasion Comic arc revolves around the green shape-shifting aliens assuming roles of authority under the radar, quietly taking over Earth. By directing Monica to the stars, WandaVision Also paves the way for her appearance in The Marvels.

Being the first Marvel Studios produced TV series, it is fitting that its story has been followed in multiple shows. It is still Lots of magic to explore in the MCUwhat Agatha all along is doing, while also opening up the possibility of Scarlet Witch returning somehow. By the end of the Infinity Saga, Vision was a significant part of the story, and having him back as a “reborn” character is a great direction to take him.
Agatha’s MCU return changes the ending of WandaVision
Agatha all along Continues Agatha’s story as Agnes after her being held under Wanda’s spell at the end of WandaVision. Instead of being the stupid neighbor, Agnes is now a detective investigating a murder that is strongly indicated to be the Scarlet Witch. She is able to free herself from the spell, thanks to help from Aubrey Plaza’s Rio Wadall and Joe Locke’s “Teen.”
One of the most important characters in Agatha all along is “Tin”, played by Joe Locke. It is highly speculated that Joe Locke is actually playing Billy, one of Wanda’s sons who is seen in WandaVision And Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness. If he actually is Billy, he looks to be much older than where they left off WandaVisionWhich would open up more questions since the last time he was seen.
