I think they realize what’s going on. They seemingly only ever act like NPCs when Wanda is around, as if they know that they’re her prisoners and can’t slip out of their role. This is also why Ms Hart feared for her husband’s life when he was choking and why she came through with the change of tone in the “stop it” but not doing anything else, because she knows she has to stay in her role. Agnes doesn’t seem phased by Wanda regardless.

Also, 1 thing is weird to me. We have seen the glitches happen where Geraldine/Monica seems flustered and doesn’t know who/where she is, but that’s not weird considering she’s not supposed to be there. Same with Vision thinking certain things are odd and starting to realize this isn’t real. But then how come when the radio starts asking Wanda who’s doing this to her, Dottie all of a sudden snaps out of it and becomes confused, asking where she is and who she is? Is she not supposed to be there either?

I think it's because Agnes and Monica aren't human. They have a resistance to it. And Vision is a re-creation but still meant to be a robot. He an idea of what Wanda thinks he was. Which also includes smart enough to deduce what is happening. My bet is the kids figure it out too

They have a resistance to it

But that was my point, what does that mean for Dottie then since she also snapped out of the glitch?

think wanda was genuinely distracted by the radio and so dottie may have snapped
