WandaVision Easter Egg Hunt!

Episode 9: The Series Finale

We've come to the last episode! I wanted to send one last THANK YOU to everyone to everyone who has contributed, commented, voted, added this book to a reading list, recommended it to a friend, or simply followed along! This has been a labor of love and I couldn't be doing it without all of you. This won't be the last chapter on this book, but I hope to see all of you in The Falcon and the Winter Soldier Easter Egg Hunt book!

SPOILER WARNING!!! While we are at the last episode of WandaVision, we can't be sure how the Easter eggs we are finding and theories we are posing could relate to future MCU projects. With this in mind, there still are potential spoilers. Anything that will be discussed in this chapter will contain Easter eggs that exist in Episode 9 (or prior) of WandaVision.

You have been warned! Let the hunt commence!

Highlighted in "Previously on WandaVision": Monica opening the cellar doors and her eyes glowing purple, with Fietro surprising her ("Snoopers gonna snoop"); Agatha using her magic in her basement to bind Wanda, explaining how only the witch who cast the runes can use her magic; Wanda using her red sparkly magic to create the house around her in the plot in Westview, as well as us seeing her create Vision from her own magic, overlaid with Agatha's voice saying "Vision was gone, but you wanted him back"; Wanda breaking into the room where SWORD was deconstructing Vision's body at headquarters and her holding her hand over his forehead where the mind stone was missing, overlaid with her saying "he's all I have," followed by Hayward's reply of "He isn't yours. He's ours." while showing the White Vision; the conversation outside Wanda's house from episode #7 explaining how Hayward was manipulating Wanda into thinking she was the villain and Wanda thinking that maybe she already was; Agatha stating that Wanda is the Scarlet Witch, before finally flashing to the images of the yellow outline of a floating person from Wanda's vision in the Mind Stone during the HYDRA experiment in episode #8.

An interesting note for those who have been reading my other books in the Untangled series- does the phrase "He isn't yours. He's ours." sound vaguely familiar? Clearly Marvel has been reading some super awesome fanfic!

Picking up where we left off: Agatha is wearing the broach she stole from her mother's corpse in Salem. Whether this holds some of her mother's powers or not, it definitely represents how she is willing to steal from other witches with no regard for them.

Wanda says to Agatha that her powers work outside and Agatha says she's counting on it. This is a call back to the beginning of episode #8 when we learn that Agatha's powers as a witch are derived from being able to absorb the powers of other witches. While the whole story of episode #8 and taking Wanda through her past has been to confirm that Wanda is incredibly powerful, she set up the scene outside with Billy and Tommy to manipulate Wanda into attacking her. This is also why didn't harm them further.

We see the first example of Wanda's hands begin to darken with signs toward death. Again, this is a call back to what Agatha did when she stole the powers from the other witches within the coven in Salem, Massachusetts. Thinking of their magic as their life-force, stealing it robs them of their lives. We'll see this again later.

After Wanda launches the car at Agatha, she goes to inspect the damage and finds a pair of empty boots (that initially look like legs) sticking out from under the car. piccolalindis points out this reference to a moment in the Wizard of Oz when the house lands on the Wicked Witch of the East and we just see her feet sticking out from underneath. When the Wicked Witch of the West goes to investigate and grab the ruby slips, the ruby slippers vanish and reappear on Dorthy's feet thanks to Glinda the Good Witch. So, maybe this is a passing reference or maybe there could also be a reference to whether Wanda is indeed the good witch or the bad witch, and whether she is deserving of her red sparkly hand magic (just like the ruby slippers).
***Also, piccolalindis mentioned how much she loves and wants to see more of the Tin Man in my other set of books, the Untangling series. Want to know what we are talking about? Better check them out... :)
