Apparently if you're enough of a power nerd, there is nothing that cannot be flowcharted.

So, I can see 2 possibilities for Pietro showing up: 1. It really seemed like Wanda wasn't responsible, which means someone else is, in which case, who in the hell is behind that? Or 2. Wanda has lost control of her powers to some degree, and didn't consciously bring Pietro back, but because she wanted it so much, she manifested it without actually intending to do so.

Other loose ends: will we meet Ralph? In a sitcom, we wouldn't, but this isn't actually a sitcom, and Agnes has mentioned him a LOT. Also, in the last episode, when they were figuring out which SWORD agents were in Westview, was Dottie among them? And if not, then who the fuck is she? Finally, Jimmy Woo said he went out to Westview on a missing persons case -- will that person be significant?

Awwwww. C=64 nostalgia.

And that ending twist, with the lampshade-hanging? Wow.

I think it's 2, Steph. They definitely harped on "there are rules, you can't change death", but this Pietro? Isn't dead.

Darcy and I said the same thing at the same time, about Pietro being recast. I had to laugh.

Darcy and Woo getting caught up in watching the broadcast pleases me so much.

I really like knowing more of what is going on than I did a couple of weeks ago but really knowing that I have no idea what is actually going on. Whee!

Jimmy Woo said he went out to Westview on a missing persons case -- will that person be significant?

I was just wondering that, too. Someone in WitSec, right? Seems potentially interesting.

Apparent the Pietro who showed up is actually the actor of the same character from the X-Men movies? Because Disney just got the rights back to the X-Men.

Wacky, though.

I think I'm on board with Wanda being kind of an asshole. Unless it's not really her. But if it wasn't, wouldn't she have admitted that?

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

Consuela I'm not sure she doesn't know it's not her. She doesn't seem to know how this all started, even if she did start consciously controlling things at some point.

Consuela, if you haven't seen the X-Men movies, it would be fun to look up Quicksilver's scenes on YouTube. They're really fun.

I think it’s interesting that the kids don’t necessarily do what she wants

And I definitely do not yet understand Vision’s general situation

Cool, Dana. I admit that I was not charmed by his attitude in this one scene, he seemed kind of forced-charming-jackass.
