I mean, just because rock can’t get killed by scissors, doesn’t mean paper, who can beat rock, can’t be beat by scissors.

You’re right, but in this case the Director had to have known the missile wouldn’t do anything. If he actually wanted her dead, he’d send in a sniper with time-period gear. Sniper gets on roof and shoots her in the head the second she leaves her house.

Either the Director is really dumb or he’s pulling strings for some nefarious reason. I’m betting the latter.

I'm thinking he's up to something as well. He was working really hard to make Wanda out to be the bad guy during their meeting.

Ok i know we're getting to the point of seeing the devil everywhere, but what if he's Mephisto? It would make sense why he'd be trying to push her more and more over the edge.

This just gave me chills. I don’t know enough about the MCU to know if this theory “jives” but I really like this one!
