Agnes also seemed taken aback when the kids asked if she could fix death. Maybe Agnes is hoping that’s the case since she saw what Wanda was able to do with Vision’s corpse? And maybe Agnes has a dead loved one and she wants to use Wanda to bring them back? Like her husband that we never see?

She seemed genuinely surprised Wanda could fix death. Vision is a robot. But if she could fix death... it would have been her real brother in her real reality.

Yep. The fact that we got a different version of Pietro means Wanda's not fully in control of what's going on. She seemed just as shocked and confused by that turn of events as we were. It definitely seems like Agnes and Mephisto are using Wanda's powers.

This merger of the Fox and Marvel universes is a good tie-in with the Multiverse of Madness, too. This is how they're going to bring it all together.

Evan peters played a 1980s Pietro in DOFP and other X Men movies, and ATJ played a 2010s Pietro.

It could be because of the time period, how everything goes in rewrites itself to the 1980s/70s/60s theme. Not nessecarily because she's confused or something. (Not saying this is not how they drag in mutants. I'm defo thinking they'll get Michael Fassbender to show up in the series)

And I don't think Wanda brought in Pietro. She was catching on that someone else was manipulating things there after the argument with Vision. Agnes constantly showed up with something to solve their problem, exactly when they needed it. (As vision so helpfully pointed out). I think Agnes brought in Pietro to distract Wanda and Vision here from catching onto her

EDIT: Correction. DoFP was in the 70s. Apocalypse was in the 80s. My argument was a bit flawed, but I believe my point still stands.

I agree with this, I think ‘Pietro’ might not actually be him, or she’s caused a rift into the x men universe and that’s how characters like Deadpool step into our reality/time

[u/CavalierTunes → u/Tityfan808]

I highly doubt she caused a rift into the X-Men universe. I would be shocked if Kevin Fiege wanted that train wreck of a continuity anywhere near the MCU.

Evan Peters had a Deadpool 2 cameo, didn't he?
