This week's episode of WandaVision kicks off in the real world with "Geraldine" waking up in a hospital as her body slowly reforms during "The Blip." As you might expect, panic has ensued in the building as the people who vanished five years ago all reappear, but this future sitcom star only cares about one thing: finding her mother. We soon learn that "Geraldine" is Monica Rambeau, and that she was sitting by her mother's bedside when she disappeared. A doctor tells Monica that while Maria's surgery was a success five years ago, the cancer returned, and she actually died three years ago. 

In the present day, Monica arrives at S.W.O.R.D., and meets with Director Tyler Hayward (Josh Stamberg). We learn that Maria founded the organisation, but it's been through a lot of changes in the past five years, and is now more about protecting Earth than exploring space (Monica drops a hint about Captain Marvel when she says about them having "allies" out there). Hayward tells Monica she's been grounded, and sends her to Westview, New Jersey to investigate a missing persons case. Meeting with FBI Agent Jimmy Woo - he's mastered magic! - she speaks to a couple of local cops who insist Westview isn't a real place, and that they're from Eastview...it's as if their memories have been wiped. The town has essentially gone missing despite the fact it's sitting right there, and after sending a drone in that vanishes, Monica gets a little too close and is sucked inside. 

S.W.O.R.D. soon arrives on the scene, and Dr. Darcy Lewis has been brought in to help them figure out what's going on. She picks up on a strange frequency, and tunes into the sitcom we've been watching these past few weeks. She's also figured out that there's radiation which can be traced back to the big bang (remember, Wanda's powers are tied to the Infinity Stones), and the team then starts identifying each of the "characters" on the show. We don't learn much beyond their real names, but they soon spot Monica, and it's then Darcy and Jimmy attempt to contact Wanda through the radio. On their end, however, they don't see everything we do, with the broadcast being censored from inside. We also learn at this point that the mysterious beekeeper was indeed just a S.W.O.R.D. agent who transformed after passing through the hexagonal barrier surrounding the town.

With alerts going off, we head back into the sitcom world and learn that Wanda is seemingly very much in control of her actions. She sends "Geraldine" packing, and seems a little shocked by her actions. However, she quickly repairs the hole in the wall, and looks lovingly at the children until Vision walks in. Here's where things get weird, though, because when she looks at her husband, he's a greyed out, milky-eyed corpse with a hole in his head from where Thanos tore out the Infinity Stone. In fact, he appears to be a walking, talking dead, android, but when she looks back up at him, he's normal again. When he says that they don't have to stay there and that they could go wherever they want, Wanda says, "No, we can't...this is our home." She assures him that she has everything under control, but could it be that this is the only place he can "live"?

Outside, Monica wakes up, and tells Jimmy, "It's Wanda. It's all Wanda." As Wanda and Vision sit on the couch together, he looks a little confused (he knows something is up), but that's where the episode ends...
