The mystery is unraveling in 'WandaVision' and it just might spin out of control. Disney and Marvel shared a tantalizing glimpse of the madness about to unfold in Episode 5. In the last four episodes of the show, the show has crafted the mysterious New Jersey town of Westview, which, according to the events of Episode 4, doesn't actually exist.

In fact, the real truth is that the town is surrounded by some kind of barrier, and people who suffer from a mental block might not be able to enter it. No brownies for guessing who's the creator of this town. It's Wanda (Elizabeth Olsen).

We're no stranger to her master manipulator powers, having seen it in the Marvel films, and she is using the same tactic to warp reality in the town. One reason could possibly be her grieving over Vision's death in 'Avengers: Infinity War'. Thanos had ripped the mind stone out of his head in order to attain the last and final infinity stone and rip the universe in half.

However, it's not just Wanda at work, and we will see the chaos about to unfold in the upcoming episodes. In the trailer, there appears to be a change from the sitcom perspective, to a mockumentary set, like in 'The Office', as Wanda speaks directly to the camera. The teaser also shows that the townfolk are slowly realizing that something is really off in this town.

In fact, Agnes (Kathryn Hahn) asks Wanda if she should "take it from the top", which points to the fact that she is well-aware that the sitcom reality is fake. They know something is amiss, they're just not sure what. There is much speculation that Agnes is Agatha Harkness, the Marvel villain from the comics, who acted as a mentor and enemy to Wanda. 

Vision (Paul Bettany) has finally realized that Westview is not what it seems and will try to break through the barrier. But...what happens if he does? Hopefully, in the upcoming episodes, these burning questions finally get their answers. Perhaps, we'll know more about SWORD too? 

Catch the next episode of 'WandaVision' on Disney+ on Fridays.
