WandaVision Episode 8 recap: MCU series delivers its most emotional episode yet (SPOILERS)
The eighth episode of WandaVision has provided the audience with a lot of answers we have been seeking for a long time. There is still a denouement remaining, of course, which we will see in the ninth and final episode. The episode is a moving meditation on grief and dealing with a loved one’s loss. Quite simply, it is the best WandaVision episode yet.
As a child, Wanda learns how nothing ever really goes wrong in sitcoms, and even if characters fall off a building and suffer injuries that should be lethal, they emerge unscathed. Her love for sitcoms was the reason the false reality she built in Westview was modelled on popular sitcoms across the decades.
We see Wanda radicalised by Hydra, along with her brother. Coming into contact with the Mind Stone greatly improves her latent magical powers.
The time moves on, and we see Vision comforting Wanda, who is grieving her brother’s death, in the Avengers compound. They fall in love. We see how Wanda has been dealt with blows after blows — her parents die, then her brother and then her lover. “What is grief, if not love persevering,” says Vision poignantly, as he underlines how important it is to grieve and deal with the loss and not avoiding it as Wanda has done.
