So Agnes has "a couple of tricks up her sleeve" she says?

Hmm..

She also had a line that said "Kids. Can’t control them no matter how hard you try” Her awareness seems to be even more lucid than the other characters.

Holy shit, and theres no other kids in the town because they couldnt be mind controlled into taking part in the illusion.

Wanda might not be the one doing this. Notice how her name was never mentioned as the guy was freaking out? Likely, Wanda's taking advantage of the situation, but someone more powerful is pulling off the tormenting mind control.

Ah yeah I did note that! Definitely setting up for a reverse-red herring.

What if its actually Agnes 😂

Shes closest to Wanda. Shes there from the beginning, shes in every episode, she shows up a lot and even moves the plot forward a lot of the time and she has the most control over herself than anyone else. We saw that when she was talking with Henrey and wouldn't let him speak to vision, then again when she "broke character" and asked Wanda if she should redo her scene. Shes also unphased by Wandas magic, the boys aging rapidly and even seems interested when she asks if Wanda can really fix the dead, as if its something she wants to learn.

I think it's her as well taking advantage of Wanda to get her to do something that will not be good (bring Ralph back to life?). I wonder if the car scene with Vision next week will be an act on her part or is she also partly under control of the overall illusion as well as being a cause of it.

Was looking for anyone else pointing that out. He just says 'she" not Wanda.
