WandaVision: 10 Things We Need To See

3. WestView Mind Control

WandaVision Vision Halloween

The primary cause of everything happening in WestView has come down to the various mind control tactics that Wanda has been using. While things have taken on a life of their own after the reveal of Quicksilver in the latest episode, the entire thing still seems to be something existing solely in Wanda's mind. Then again, are we going to forget all the civilians that she brought with her?

Though episode five was definitely packed with a lot of new info about the fate of our characters, the real terror of the show came in when Vision was talking with Norm about what's really happening around here. After touching his head for just a second, Norm begins to freak out and ask for help wherever he can before being snapped back into the traditional reality he's known in the TV-fied version of Westview.

No matter how much it may have been played off for comedy, this kind of mind control is something that's taken straight out of Jordan Peele's playbook, almost being a direct riff on the key scene in the movie Get Out.

As SWORD and co. begin to dissect what's happening in the future, here's hoping that we get a more in-depth look at what Wanda is really doing to these people's minds.
