    It's as simple as this. She's grieving and in pain and is looking for a safe place. Just like when she was a child.
    It appears to me that the show isn't as complex as all the easter eggs have led us to believe.
    We are trying to connect dots that don't need connecting.
    Agatha is the villian
    Wanda is out of control
    No Pacino
    No Mephisto

    I think that's part of the tragedy of Wanda's life. She lost everyone. She doesn't even have any friends. She connected with Clint Barton in Age of Ultron, but he's with his family. She really has nobody and this visual solitude was a storytelling tool to show how alone she is leading to her breakdown in the vacant lot, a metaphor for her life. If we'd seen Wanda getting emotional support from a few girlfriends or something (which I don't think she had any anyway), then her sorrow would have been less evident. It was important to the story to show her alone. It was also probably right for her character as I think Vision was not only her true love but also her only real friend.

    Here's one more thing.... Wanda is creating Vision, not from her powers coming out of her hands like normal...... but the power came out of her HEART.

    I thought this episode was the best so far.
    And at this point I neither want Mephisto to show up nor think he will.
    It's a stronger story if it's all just Wanda having a psychotic break due to her grief.

    I don't think that Agatha has done anything antagonistic at all other than encourage what Wanda was already doing.  She seems more like the observant that is encouraging everything so she can find out how to do it herself.   Wanda would be doing most of all of this anyway without Agatha.

    That's a good idea, but I really do think that they are going to have Dr. Strange appear at the end of next week's episode in either the proper episode or the mid credits scene.  Everything Disney does is a commercial in a way for another project that they want you to see.  If Wanda is showing up in Dr. Strange 2 it would make the most sense for him to pop up next week even if it is in passing or a cameo in the credits. 
    At the worst I think we could see something along the lines to the the rebuilt Sanctum Sanctorum with her in front of the door and the doors open up.  I really do feel that in some way shape or form, Strange is coming.

    Ohhhh I thought the most compelling bit of information out of the whole episode was when Agatha revealed that Wanda was born with these powers.  With the exception of Thor who is another being, and Peter Quill who is a human / alien hybrid, Wanda is the first character to be 'born' with abilities. Previously we were told that the infinity stone provided these powers to her.  Every human character that Marvel has given us developed these powers by accident, like Hulk and Spider-man, OR they were intentionally provided like with Captain America.  Marvel just retconned it so that Wanda was born with these powers and the infinity stone just magnified it.
    Marvel just introduced us to mutants.

    I place little value on the thoughts and opinions of one who 'measures' the grief of one person against the grief of another.  We are really measuring up the grief and survivor's guilt of one fictional character versus another?  Thor should be grieving more than Wanda?  
    Let's measure this up against real life.   Is the loss of someone's mother more "traumatizing" than the loss of a brother or sister?  Is the loss of a group of neighbors in a fire more traumatizing than the loss of a single friend in a car accident.  Who the hell is anyone to "measure" someone's grief? 
    I remember when someone said something like that once.  He told the grieving sister that she should move on and get over it since her brother was on this Earth for fewer years than he had been married to his wife who had passed. 
    That man was a real life troll.  What happened to him?  He was so disliked that when he passed, he was buried in an unmarked grave.  No name on a stone, nothing.  He was a real life troll, and people were glad to see him gone.

    Celestials experimented on humanoid life throughout the galaxy. Titan had its own set of Eternals and Deviants. Earth had its set and were the original Eternals created by Kirby. I think Thanos and his Titan family were retconned as Eternals later. The Skrulls origin first detailed in Silver Surfer #5 (the 80's series) revealed that they descended from the Deviant experiment on their planet along with the Dire Wraiths.

    It's been stated before though, a lot of the running around like cats was the fans' and the media's own doing. To find some of those Easter eggs, one had to still frame the video and then blow up the image to see things like Bova on a milk carton or Grim Reaper in the decor. Just because Pietro said "what a nightmare" doesn't mean he was referring to Nightmare. Many of these wild goose chases were hardcore fans just coming up with wild guesses that Marvel never even put in as a Easter egg, like the possibility of Magneto or Professor X showing up. If it wasn't for more knowledgeable fans pointing it out, the High Evolutionary thing with Herb would've gone right past me. I'm not saying Marvel didn't do it on purpose and didn't know what they were doing, but as far as the larger story goes, the clues and leads in the actual story and dialogue have been more limited. The aerospace engineer thing was an obvious mislead for hardcore fans, but it seems everything else has just really been about who's pulling the strings and lots of references to the devil.
