WandaVision 1x2 - Poll

Hey guys I am a new Raw Rider patreon and just want to let you know you guys are awesome. I said willing because I have unwillingly seen some speculation because of YouTube of who could be doing this to her and I think sword is there to get her to comeback to reality but she doesn't want to go because she agreed to be in there to get back together with vision and may have had parts of her memory wiped so she would think it's real but her memories and sword are coming in and ruining it for whoever might be doing this. I also think Dottie might be in charge of it or is at least like a warden keeping her in. And there was a dottie in agent carter who was a Soviet assassin, that's why the name sounds familiar, but I don't know if it would be the same one

BigSteve Kasten

I think she willingly went in but did it under deceptive reasons. Like she was told it will help her but in reality it’s trapping her so SWORD is trying to rescue her when she doesn’t want to be saved.

Katherine Hahn is too good of a neighbor to not be the villain. Just saying!

Daga Luv

I think that something else entirely is responsible for trapping Wanda is this tv reality, but I think her subconscious is filtering/controlling what she sees and experiences. Both the commercial scenes were references to traumatic moments from her past so I think her mind/powers are trying to heal her by giving her a semi-ideal reality to live in while she copes with her trauma and her mind/body tries to heal itself in this altered state.

Am i the only person who saw the guy in the Bee suit and thought hmm.. Beehive? Hive? HIVE!?

DeathSwitch

I think Wanda willingly put herself in this reality after End Game. My theory is she found out she was pregnant and it put her into a protective state. After everything she recently went through in End Game she would do anything for her children. She then made this reality to protect and raise her children with Vison in. This would also explain the heavy emphasis on everyone chanting "for the children."

I could see it being Wanda got fucked up in some way, and is doing this subconsciously as a defence mechanism of sorts to prevent something taking over her, or to fight something that only she believes only she has the power to fight, and is sacrificing herself to protect others from it. That could also be the reason why SWORD have been able to somewhat break through to her, since if she was in full, conscious, control of it, I don't think anyone would be able to break through, other than maybe Dr Strange.

C-Dubble

Wanda is probably in a delusional state that has unknowingly engulfed the entire town that she is in and it's Agnus's or Agatha Harkness's job to make sure she stays that way untill her sons are of age for her bosses AKA Mephistos plan or simply as offerings to welch herself out of a deal she made with him.

Danocheirus

I think both it seems she doesn't know things but she can control everything around

Darius Anderson

"Unwillingly" is probably not what I want to say, but I chose it because I do think that it is Wanda and that she is being manipulated. Like the whole town was emphasizing BABIES just so that Wanda would get pregnant at the end. I do think the babies are the most important part of this puzzle, and that whoever/whatever is manipulating Wanda wants her babies.

MelanieRS

Part of me wants to say Wanda willingly, simply because of her “no” and reversal of time in Episode 2. My other theory is she initially was thrown into this universe unwillingly but decided to stay willingly once she realized she could live out a slightly more normal life with Vision, even if deep down she knows it’s not real.

They confirmed that the show is taking inspiration for the House of M storyline so she created this alternate reality because of Visions death

If Wanda has accessed her reality altering powers do you think this could bring vision and possibly (longest shot in the dark) quicksilver back?

Chris D. Jones

u guys should check out some death battles. like might guy vs all might and broly vs the hulk

chris crookham

My theory is that this pocket reality has been made "FOR THE CHILDREN". While Wanda in in control this is someone doing this to her. I think the ultimate goal is for Wanda to have kids. Her children are likely to be quite powerful like she is. In the first episode as soon as the nosy neighbor, Agnes shows up, the first person who Wanda talks to, she starts giving suggestions how to seduce Vision. The second episode, Agnes is seen again at the beginning of the episode and is the first one to bring up kids in talking about school admissions.

Matthew Fabb

I think it's a mix of willingly and unwillingly. I think this was a reaction/defense mechanism to something/someone but now she's in there she doesn't want to leave since her sitcom life is more appealing than real life

malikparah

I say something else... Like could Wanda actually be pregnant and she’s in a type of “mind” hibernation while the baby grows? Or could someone have convinced her that she’s pregnant and needs to stay in this simulation “For the children.” Using the familiar sitcom set up as a comfort? Whatever it is- I’m here for it!

Brookie

Voted on "Wanda unwillingly". I think she created this dream world in her mind as an escape/safe place. It seems like to me that in real world & timeline someone is forcing her to talk about things she shouldn't reveal... like her power or "magician-Vision's secret"?

I think it's AIM, AIM people in comics have this beekeeper costume

I think Wanda put herself into this dream like reality and somehow it caused other people to be caught and trapped inside of it and now sword has taken control over it and is causing these weird glitch in the matrix type things to happen to possibly try to wake her up or pull her back into reality

Christian Bolda

Maybe It's like doing drugs. You don't want to do it at first, but somebody put you onto it and maybe coerce you to do it. Now that you've gotten a taste of it and how it makes you feel, you don't want to leave it.

Hao

I think it’s a bit of both. I feel like she wants to live in this utopia that is fabricated for her. But the select people within it are trying to get info/secrets from her. Her mind/subconscious lashes out and attack’s them resetting a scene or dialogue. Whether it be Hydra, aliens, or Sword using stark tech

Gavin Hardiman

I think initially she did it but somehow she lost control of it and someone or something is taking over control. Also not sure if you knew but the first 2 episodes were filmed in front of a live audience.

Jeff Knapp

I voted on 'Something Else' and the vote counter jumped to 666 votes total. I think the universe is giving me a sign on who's behind this!

Seefah

Did you notice the hexagon symbols? These are the same as Hive missions from recent Avengers video game where AIM was the bad guy. A beekeeper and Hive symbols. It’s AIM doing this to Wanda!

Mephisto has something to do with this, I know it

Jacob Suydam

I think it’s a mixture of both. Maybe Wanda created this pocket dimension to cope with the loss of vision but some devilish fiend is using this opportunity to hijack it and make her think she’s in control but really this being will drain her of her powers

Brandon Brenlla

I wote smth else but my theory is this all hapening after Vanda destroyed Visions stone and was erased with snap( when she destroyed stone probably some of its power went into her (since she got her powers from it ) the world she is in now was created by her new combined power with stone unconciously. When snap hapened she went to this world instead of nothingnes

The helmet/mask in the intro belongs to the character of Grim Reaper, who was killed by Wanda in the old "Vision And The Scarlet Witch" comic book. Grim Reaper wanted to kill Vision because Reaper's brother, the character Wonder Man, was used by Ultron to create Vision's brain waves, and Grim Reaper saw Vision as a perversion of his brother.

Quwykxz

I think she was unwilling put into the dream state or whatever it is, but has subconsciously accepted it and wants to stay in it, which is why she keeps refusing help, and the commercials might even be an outside source trying to remind her of reality by reminding her of the tragedies of her life, possibly working whenever we get to Vision’s death being referenced

SWPlagueis

It seems like (because of the radio transmissions) Wanda is being held in this fake reality, potentially by the neighbour Agnes??

I'm thinking someone has somehow triggered her powers to go out of control, so while its is her power and she can influence things, like the no scene, she is not in direct control. Also preditting the more attched to this fake world she gets, the more she'll became aware and gain more control to eventually be in complete control just as whoever set her off wants her too, too further some nefarious purpose.

Michael David Pates

I think Wanda has created this world for herself but it’s been hijacked by some nefarious forces. Possibly Mephisto and I think Agnes is in on it. I think the “husband “ Agnes keeps referring to is actually Mephisto.

Ana Vazquez

100% wanda willingly did u guys not see the beekeeper scene?

Deadpool

Nothing to do with the poll just wanna say I love Paul Bettany

Jordan Rice

I think the show is operating on the same general idea as the House of M storyline from the comics. In that arc, Scarlet Witch snapped and warped reality for the entire world (twice!). I think WandaVision is a much smaller scale of that.

Liesmith

I'm going to go with she willingly created this 'perfect' sit-com world to forget what happened to Vision and live out her fantasies. But she can't remember doing it because that would break the illusion

Jeanette C

I voted for willingly, but it might be a combination of the two. As others have pointed out, the dinner scene in the first episode and the beekeeper are kinda the two sticking points. I can't believe that the Vision we know from the movies wouldn't have helped Mr. Hart immediately, but he didn't do anything till Wanda "broke" and told him to. Then she denied the existence of the beekeeper, forcing a rewind herself. I think that some part of her knows what's going on, but maybe when she "went in" willingly, she got overwhelmed and lost it. There's unfortunately a lot of precedent in the comics for Wanda losing it in stressful moments. Remember, depending on how long after Endgame this takes place she's only had her powers for fiveish years.

SardonicProphet

I think Mephisto is behind this.

I think they way that wanda reverses the beekeeper and is beefed by Mrs hart to “stop it” in episode 1 suggests that this is all Wanda. I think the looks of disbelief at the radio could be pure shock that someone found a way to to get into her reality.

Charlie James Verey

I think she knows she's been put in this world by someone else, but seeing as this reality gives her back Vision and a more normal life, she's choosing to ignore the people trying to reach her.

Ethan Prendergast

I dount if this would be true, BUT I think it would be interesting if this somehow involved Mojo World. It could be an interesting way to kind of "back door" introduce the idea of mutants into the MCU.

Mark Hanson

I choose unwillingly. Wanda is being held in a facility created by SWORD, who are keeping an eye on individuals that are related to or had encounters with Avengers and/or possibly mutants, since it is confirmed that Scarlet Witch will be in Doctor Strange 2 and The Multiverse of Madness. The line 'my husband and his indestructible head' could be referencing the 'copy' Shuri was in the process of constructing in Infinity War but was delayed due to her being lost in 'The Snap'. Could the indestructible material be adamantium?

Wanda unwillingly but willingly

Jomrann

with the whole tv theme and the fact disney can use xmen properties now, im really hoping its going to be Mojo! especially with the sword hints putting us in space!

KuroOberon

I also think Wanda is doing this herself willingly.. But, an unknown antagonist is taking advantage of the situation. Possibly Agnes' often spoke of but as of yet unseen husband Ralph.

Knockoffnigel72

I think Wanda has created this reality herself, possibly using childhood memories of old american 'perfect family' sitcoms to deal with the grief of losing Vision. I think she has originally moved to Westview, but then she has incorporated the town into her 'reality', and its now a bubble reality, which may be bleeding out or expanding into the real world. Which is why SWORD is having to try to intervene. Apparently in the MCU, SWORD now stands for Sentient Weapon Observation Response Division. Which could well be a description of both Vision and Wanda.

Knockoffnigel72

I think it was willingly as a coping mechanism for all the loved ones she has lost (vision, her brother and her parents)

Angus Whitehead

I believe someone else is controlling Wanda and exploiting her powers at a moment of weakness. I think they came to Wanda when she was grieving and tricked her into doing this to herself. My best guess is agnes on behalf of her hidden probably horned husband. I think the more time Wanda spends in this vision the easier it will be for her to deal with visions death, heal, then accept that this isn’t reality. Her rewinding the beekeeper was a denial stage of grief.

Sara-Jayne

I have a Theory: What if it's an actual town that she was living in, and she's changed the reality of the whole town just like Thanos did to The Collector. The helicopter would make sense more because it's usually used to fly over larger objects. It also then gives each character a reason for being there, they all exist but they're all a simple version of themselves that wanda is creating. The ending with the surveillance equipment could be an external command centre from Sword. In the trailers we see it modernise and even see dennings and Wu in a townish setting. I think that a whole small town's reality is being changed inside a bubble based on what wanda wants to be real - but then I still see a larger big bad who's manipulating it too. Just an unpolished theory!

Mitchell Scott

Wanda is a powerful reality warper that derives her powers from the cosmic energy of the Infinity stones. She has been through trauma loosing her country, then her brother, and then her romantic partner, her mind is vulnerable to manipulation. Agnes or Mephisto may be behind it.

Barry

I think Wanda is started this on purpose but it got out of control

Prince of Za Waurdo Over Salmon

I think Wanda created this reality, but it was kickstarted by an outside force. And for a hail mary theory... I think it wasn’t made with evil intent. It was made to help Wanda deal with her grief since she never did for her brother or Vision. Whoever started this was afraid of what would happen if Wanda ever completely lost control. So this entire show is a giant therapy session in a classic sitcom/comic book style.

Anthony Wickizer

Eric can i please get a Vincent D'Onofrio "WHEN I WAS A BOI" impression next episode

saul™

I think it’s all that Jones guy I don’t trust his long face 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

I think it's a combination of someone doing this to Wanda. And her slowly figuring it out, but she doesn't want it to end. Because she knows when it does the "Illusion" Vision will go away.

Cory Hawks

The answer on who’s helmet that is, it’s The Grim Reaper’s. He is the brother of Wonder Man who is what Vision’s brain is based off of in the comics. The MCU equivalent would be like Friday or Spidey’s suit AI since Vision is based off of Jarvis. And to answer the question Wanda is doing this willingly

Hobbes

I think Wanda is doing this unwilling or at the very least be doing this not knowing that she did it, since she seems to be as lost as Vision in this new Sitcom world. Also this is my first poll and I am so happy to be here.

I think she is having a mental breakdown. As we know from the comics, Wanda's breakdowns can be quite universe altering.

Jules Eris

I think Wanda is doing this intentionally to cope with the Trauma of killing Vision and watching him die twice combined with the fact that she's been gone for five years. She created this reality and the voices she's hearing are people investigating her and trying to free her from her "Prison"

Ko Villa

I think Wanda is subconsciously keeping the people who are a part of this weird reality safe by keeping them, in what she thinks what is a wholesome and danger free environment like sitcoms.

I said something else. I think she was tricked into doing it but is now stuck in the illusion because she loves vision so much, and doesn’t want to let him go, so she wipes her own memory when she resets the era(episode 1=50s, episode 2=60s, and I assume episode 3=70s). Ps. If they keep genre hopping sitcoms each episode I can’t wait for the office episode(the 2000s)

I think Wanda is doing it unconsciously. Tapping into her reality warping powers

Lucas Joseph

I think its willingly. Her mind had a break due to visions death and facing Thanos. Everyone else came back but Vision didnt and she is making this fantasy to cope.

Awed

She seems fully aware of it all, so I’ll say she’s doing it willingly to herself, probably due to Vision’s death. But like another comment said above, I think SWORD are not aware it’s Wanda doing it to herself and they think it’s another threat.

Shockzz1234

I said unwillingly, but I think it's definitely her and not someone controlling her. I just think it's her subconscious.

MattillaTheHun

I think someone else is running things and I feel like it could be Agnes. In addition to the devil in the details comment, her cat was also named senor scratch, and mr scratch is another name for the devil. With her also straight up calling Wanda the star of the show, I think she, or maybe her off screen husband who keeps getting mentioned, could have something to do with it

I think someone put Wanda in this fantasy to try and control her, but she is so powerful that she's beginning to take control of the fantasy and is going to fight back only to realize that this is a fantasy and no matter how much this might be what she wants she has to let it go or else she will succumb to whoever is doing this to her.

Jonathan Foreman

I think Mephisto planted the kids in Wanda and is using her powers to warp reality along with Agnes to stop or help swords plans.

Richard McClure

I chose Wanda Unwillingly, but that is a bit too vague. I think she is fully in control, but it's all subconscious. Like in that moment at the end of season 2, she was confronted with some reality, but refused to acknowledge it. And then she goes back into her world. Which seems to be an actual location on Earth, and is taking over people. Pretty dark if that is the case!

Steve Rivera

It could be Mephisto aka the devil who likes to play tricks on people. The helmet in the beginning is the Grimm Reaper’s a Vision villain

Matthew’s First Name

Because the people that are watching her are SWORD which is supposed to deal with extraterrestrial threats I think that they see her as a threat so they have put her in a world where she is happy so she won't lose control.

Wanda is doing it, but someone is making her do it, in a way.

I believe what we are seeing are Wanda's Visions (the name of the show being a play on the characters and the reality of what is going on). So it's all happening in her head and I believe she is doing it willingly either as some sort of defense mechanism or as a mental breakdown after losing Vision and missing out on living life with him.

Gazman

Agnes’s husband might be Mephisto. When Dotti says “the devil is in the details” Agnes says that that is not the only place

Christian Alonte

I think she's doing it to herself due to her grief of vision dying, and SWORD is trying to help her but they don't realise she's doing it to herself

Nathan Armitage

Wanda's probably risking the world once again for Vision. I don't blame her it's probably her choice to be in this world, but may not realize she's being used.

Joel

I believe its her subconscious that is causing this reality

spencer

I think the Nightmare from the future Doctor Strange 2 movie probably manipulated her into making this reality bubble. After all it has been confirmed Wanda will show up there and that would give stronger reasons to appear.

Diego

I think Wanda is unwillingly apart of this warped reality she seems to have as much information as vision with her being confused about the helicopter, and the dinner scene, but i think her powers are the reason for this new world

Kaleb A. Diaz

I think wanda is trying to fix vision and something went wrong. If u guys remember in infinity war after Thanos took the mind stone Vision's body went all colorless just like the first two eps.

Dip602

I think it’s being done to her but she likes being there.

Cal

I think it’s probably a mix of Wanda controlling things with the assistance of an unknown presence, Mephisto perhaps?

RedeyePeyton

Wanda seems to have full control. Its possible Wanda was manipulated in to creating that reality, but its obvious that she has full control of the reality as she was able to rewind time once seeing the Sword agent / bee keeper.

Al

It has something to do with Agnes’ husband or Agnes herself

She said no when it rewinded, so I think Wanda is doing it willingly.
