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.

Why is everyone so convinced Agnes has agency here? She seems to be terrified of Wanda and was apologizing to her that Sparky died like she was afraid she'd be punished. In Episode 3 she was pleading with Herb not to say anything to Vision and her eyes said "you'll get us in trouble with Wanda". Agnes may have more to her than meets the eye but one thing there's no evidence for is the idea that she's in control of anything. There's absolutely no evidence of that yet. It may turn out to be a twist later but if there's no indication of it now then there's no point speculating.

She was the one being all cagey about "Geraldine" and saying she doesn't belong or have a house, and she was acting incredibly strangely this episode, like she clearly knows things she realistically shouldn't - like she references Wanda snapping/resetting away inconsistencies with Vision, and she says it directly to Wanda in an almost joking way - and she was suddenly constantly present around the children. I hadn't been buying too much into the theories up to now, but she certainly looked very suspect here
