Message: <blockquote data-quote="Staffan" data-source="post: 9497586" data-attributes="member: 907">My impression in Wandavision was that Wanda is essentially disassociating into two Wandas: Wanda being torn apart by grief, who created the hex and were pulling the strings, and Wanda the sitcom character who was mostly concerned about sitcom mom things. I got the feeling that sitcom-Wanda was semi-independent and grief-Wanda was mostly along as a viewer for most of it, albeit with the ability to take over at any time when needed – sort of like a magical Hulk. It wasn't until near the end when Agatha really went in for the psychological manipulation and looking through her history that she manages to reintegrate herself, and realized how she was torturing the people of Westview – at which point her heroic nature reasserted itself and she tried (poorly) to fix things.It's not exactly the same as Billy's situation, but there are similarities.Sure, we don't see exactly what happens. We do see the camera turn away (and in one case, everyone walking behind a wall) and we hear the sound of power-drain, as well as Agatha cackling and other witches screaming in pain. But we don't hear any initiation of the fight from the other witches. In the initial scene with new-born Nicholas, there isn't even a trace of hostility, just her being welcomed in camp and then poof, dead witches. And once she starts doing the Witches' Road con, we do see her taunting her "covens" into attacking her, just like back in Salem.I mean, it's not conclusive, but it's odd that every situation in between Nicholas's birth and death is handled the same, while every situation before and after is handled a different way.(It's also odd that in every situation where she's facing multiple witches, they all blast her simultaneously instead of having one go first and having someone notice that this isn't going according to plan, or having some try physical fighting or something. But that could just be narrative convenience.)</blockquote>
