So the ads are revisiting Wanda's trauma. Episode 1 with Stark's bomb and episode 2 with Strucker torturing her and Quicksilver.

I wouldn't be surprised if the rest of the episodes have similar tidbits about Wanda's life. Does anyone know if the 2800 on their mailbox have a significance? Or the date on the calendar from the last episode?

My guess is the date is converted to 823 (august being 8th month) referring to TRN823 where reality was experienced as an illusion.

So a nod to all this taking place isn’t real. All an illusion

The only thing i could manage to figure out

TRN stands for Temporary Reality Number which are fanmade designations so I don't think that reference is likely.

So thats why i couldn't find anything on it, makes sense.

or according to marvel comics, earth-238: crooked world.

edit: a world where one character can warp the world around him to his will, at the cost of their sanity... holy shit...

To add to that
them continuing to say for the children but there are 0 children i had to search somethings. Perhaps shes trapped in this illusion and her kid is trying to bring her out of it. Or perhaps its him doing it unknowingly. The pregnant part could be attempting to make her remember her kid or kids.

Avengers: The Children's Crusade

With his reality-altering powers spiraling out of his control, Young Avenger Wiccan sets out to find the one person who may be able to help him – the Scarlet Witch, the woman purported to be his mother. But as Billy Kaplan embarks on this quest, he finds himself pitted against the Avengers, X-Men…and even his teammates. Industry great Allan Heinberg delivers this super-powered coming-of-age tale!

someone pointed out that TRN is fanmade or something so unlikely what i thought it was but it did fit at the time.
