Pretty sure the time jump in AIW is 5 years, not 2.
So, Wandavision?

Right you are! Consider it corrected.
So, presuming my cobbled together timeline is some what correct, Wanda's anomaly must have been created somewhere in the last few weeks, after Tony's funeral (the date of which we do not know). SWORD watches the 3 episodes of Wandavision in a row that same night. This suggests the events inside the anomaly probably do not happen in real time. Rather, they are a constant broadcast, and what other episodes may follow in the weeks to come, will also be seen by SWORD that same night.

Adding to that "not in real time" aspect, note that when the "censoring" happens for the agents watching from outside, there's no break in transmission. What turns out to be a scene lasting a few minutes for Wanda, Monica and Vision is skipped over instantly in the real world.
But we also know that there's a degree of synchronisation between the internal and external timelines. The sewer infiltration, the attempted radio contact and Monica's ejection all sync up pretty well between the 'show' and external events.
Could the "censorship" be a mental effect? Maybe it's not that those scenes don't get broadcast, but that peoples' memories of having seen them are edited out. We already know that people outside the 'bubble' can be mentally influenced by it, from the way the local police officers were made to forget the town.
It could be yeah. But it could also be that the writers just aren't considering that detail. hands waving "Do not look behind the curtain!!!1!"

Well, in this episode they purposefully draw attention to it. They show the characters reacting to Monica suddenly being gone and the episode ending. Right after though, we as an audience are shown what really happened to Monica. The part that wasn't broadcast.
As they state in the episode, they are recording everything. Even if it were a mental effect, they would still record what their collective minds are unable to remember. If they draw so much attention to it, that seems like the opposite of hand waving.

This why I expect that this isn’t simply Wanda doing this in her grief. There’s an antagonist or at least a precipitating event other than Vision’s murder by Thanos and the outcome of the Infinity War/Engame. And it will lead us to the next Dr Strange movie.
Wanda is one of the Marvel characters who has been most emotionally manipulated by others (particularly by Magneto) in the comics, and I suspect this story is a nod in that direction.

There's also the question of how the destruction / dispersal of the Infinity Stones affected those who derived their powers from them.
We know that Captain Marvel was seemingly unaffected - she was operating at full potential the day after it happened, and seemingly continued to do so right through the subsequent five years to the end of Endgame.
However, Wanda technically didn't exist when the Stones were destroyed, plus she got her powers from a different stone. Things might not have been as straightforward for her.

My money’s on Hayward for precipitating antagonist. We already know he’s in the business of creating sentient weapons, so it isn’t a stretch that he might want to continue Strucker’s work on Wanda. Lacking the mindstone, he’d have to go all in on manipulation, but we already know BARF can handle that role.
But of course, there’s certainly room for more than one antagonist.

Hexagon theories:

Also, another little easter egg I noticed that calls out the original Avengers. The drone turned into a toy that for some reason kept it's color. Those colors happen to be Iron Man's colors. Then the SWORD agent sent in through the sewers. When he crossed the barrier and turned into the beekeeper, the section of safety rope that went through the barrier with him was transformed into repeating sections of red, white, and blue, or Captain America's colors. So should we be looking for things in the remaining episodes that are in Thor's, Hulk's, Black Widow's, and Hawkeye's colors/patterns? Was there another one already shown that I missed?
The big WandaVision villain theory has everything to do with hexagons
And we know a thing or two about polygons here

Any thoughts as to the meaning of the calculations that vision is doing? I’m thinkinking this is important, but I have no ideas beyond that gut feeling.
