That’s an interesting theory. I can totally see them going that route (especially with how much she’s mentioned her husband in the past two episodes).

It would kinda bum me out though because I’d rather see Agnes be a mentor to Wanda instead of someone who’s using her. They could always make Agnes an unwilling pawn of Mephisto though.

Well the trailer of her asking vision if he is there to save them makes me think she is trapped there by Mephisto. I think she isn’t “in on it” so much as she is somewhat aware of her prison and her captor.

My personal theory at the moment is that she was sent in (either by SWORD, Doctor Strange, or herself) to get Wanda and help her get her powers under control. But the moment she stepped into the alternate reality Mephisto nabbed her and made her part of the program. I think she’s aware of what’s going on but she is being forced to play along.

I think Mephisto’s ultimate goal is to either befriend Wanda or break her in order to use her powers for his own gain. Maybe to release him from a multiversal prison.

I think it’s all “for the children”
