It could be that someone/something else is really in control, or could be more that she is in control but is being manipulated in some way to keep WestView as it is, for whatever nefarious reason.

It's Lord Nefaryous.

Not Boskaryus?

Secret identity.

Another solid episode, not nearly as good as the last but still quite excellent. A ton to unpack again, with some intriguing long term impact events. I'll wait for y'all to catch up.

I thought it was amazing. Obviously didn't have a huge surprise moment like the last one, but I honestly thought the writing was just as good if not better.

For me the last episodes greatness wasn't about the surprise ending, but the 15 minutes that preceded it. It was perfect in my eyes. Definitely need to watch ep6 again on a proper TV, watching it on my phone doesn't do it justice

[faizoff]

Yeah I don't want big surprises every episode, and this new one delivered. But I now have more questions than before. I guess will have to wait until the season finale to find out what the whole shebang is.

[DoctorAction]

More good stuff. Loving it very much.

[Orbert]

It's like the more we learn, the more we don't know.

[jingle.boy]

It's like the more we learn, the more we don't know.

Precisely. Seems clear that Pietro isn’t Pietro.  Im also confused a little with Agnes now. Jingle.son had some intriguing theories on a couple of thoughts - not sure if they are his own, or internet rumours.

[ariich]

I've read some Internet rumours about Agnes based partly on her behaviour last week, but then this week Herb behaved the same way. Possibly some red herrings here and there.

[lonestar]

Looks like my kid's prediction of Monica becoming her comic counterpart (Photon or Spectrum based on which line they use, her words, not mine. She out geeks me at every turn except Star Trek lol)will come to fruition based on the line from Darcy of "your cellular structure is changing on a molecular level"


They're really using this series to open up the floodgates on Phase 4. God I fucking love this shit.

[jingle.boy]

Jingle.son’s theories (possible spoilers??)

The molecular change for all town inhabitants will be way the MCU introduces mutants.
Head SWORD guy is trying to get Vision’s parts cuz he wants to make Wonder Man
Monica’s contact is Reed Richards.

I heard the last one as well, and totally see it happening. The first one is a bit too far out for me though.

Last week, Director Asshole was asking if Wanda had some kind of nickname, and she does not.  I read elsewhere that she's never been referred to as Scarlet Witch within the MCU (so far).  Many folks refer to her as that online, but on screen, she's always just Wanda Maximoff.  I hadn't realized that.

I'm pretty sure that her choice of Halloween costume, the very next episode, was not a coincidence.



Also, that costume was quite flattering.  Vision's, however...



I did love that the Mind Stone was included.

[Zook]

Director Asshole will probably be the one to start calling her Scarlett Witch. I will say though that when he asked about her having a nickname, it came off very clunky. It could have been better foreshadowing dialogue.

[Orbert]

I do remember that being a bit clunky.  One of the few minor missteps I've noticed, really.

There's been some pretty bad expository dialogue on the show, but I guess it's unavoidable.

I didn't find it clunky at all, I saw it as him trying to dehumanise her by using a nickname instead of her actual name.

[Orbert]

That part I got.  But the scene itself seemed to go on a line or two longer than necessary, with everybody agreeing that No, we've never heard of any nickname for her.  No.  No, she's just Wanda.  No nickname.  So... no.  I'm exaggerating of course; it wasn't that bad, but it wasn't super smooth, either.

I agree with ariich.   I thought it was perfect.   If you've ever dealt with someone who is belaboring the point, and won't back off...that's EXACTLY how it goes down.   That's why they become annoying, because you've already answered their question, but they won't back off, so they drag it out.   

The extra line or two (IMO) just gave him that added level of assholery.     Asking and not accepting the original answer made him an "asshole"....taking it an extra line more elevated him to "condescending asshole"

[ariich]

Hmm yeah good point JD. It was a bit awkward but that was also the point.

[Orbert]

Okay, I can see that.

[Lax]

I read an interesting idea, the dome could contain a parrallel universe, could it be the x-men one, hence explaining why there is the other quicksilver, and maybe others.
For the brainwashing part tho, I'm not sure it's a volontary move from wanda.
The mistery is still very thick even with only 3 an hour episodes remaining !

[ZirconBlue]

So, the last 3 episodes are apparently going to each be an hour long. 

I've read some Internet rumours about Agnes based partly on her behaviour last week, but then this week Herb behaved the same way. Possibly some red herrings here and there.

Scarlet herrings?

[hefdaddy42]

This episode was so good.

And I must say, Ms. Olsen looked quite fetching in her Halloween outfit. 

I loved that they described Vision's Halloween outfit as that of a Mexican wrestler.  Nice.

[Orbert]

Yep, and Wanda's was that of a Sokovian fortune teller.  Wanda's mother (the original Scarlett Witch) was also a Sokovian fortune teller.

Of course, both costumes are actually pretty straight from the comics, as was Pietro's (Quicksilver) and the boys (Speed and Wiccan).  I took it as a semi-humorous take on how funny the costumes look if just taken straight from the comic books, and why they more-or-less have to change them for different media.

[Adami]

This is annoying. I watch the episode Friday, have a lot to say about it but don't because it's too early to discuss spoilers. Then I spend the weekend largely away from social media and DTF and by the time I'm back, everything's been discussed. Ah well.

Great episode. I really love the nonchalant horror elements that are being infused, especially through Pietro. The kids are pretty interesting too. Very excited for next episode.

Speaking of, did anyone see the 2nd promo for the next episode? There seems to be a HUGE potential cameo in there but I don't see anyone talking about it so maybe I'm just seeing something that isn't there.  turns out I was duped by a fake promo.

[hefdaddy42]

Haven't seen it.

[Adami]

Haven't seen it.

Nevermind. Noticed who it was that posted it and it's fake.

[Zook]

Great episode, but I hope mockumentaries die a horrible death. Such a stupid gimmick.

[ariich]

I'm really curious to see what the 2010s style is, presumably next week. What's the defining comedy style from last decade?

And yeah the way this show has been building from episode to episode is amazing.

I honestly assumed this was the 2010s? Plus it looks like we might be done with a different sitcom every week. Given you know...the developments.

I assumed last week was 1990s and this week was 2000s. I mean, that was the decade of the mockumentary.

Fair point that we may not having the sitcom broadcast anymore.

[jingle.boy]

Yeah, the Modern Family replica would be late 2000s/2010s.  I think we're done with the sitcoms.  jingle.son rumoured me that we get a flashback style episode next week.

Good episode.  Excellent payoff.  Disappointed that it wasn't an hour-ish... I thought that was the expectation??
