Ok, this is going to seem a bit out there, but I think the FF is going to be introduced here.

A few posts back someone had mentioned Ralph being the big bad, and I totally agree with that. Hopefully this won't meander too badly and is totally speculation town.

I always go back to rewatch the episodes after seeing a new one, trying to piece together the new info to match the old. I got as far as episode 1 this time when something caught my eye. Spoiler tag for newest episode info and cause it is wild speculation.

Spoiler!

The newspaper Vision is initially reading has the innoculous headline about "Mother Sue loving her smiling baby June" or something to that affect (I need to go rewatch for actual quote). Then the first time Agnes mentions Ralph is something about "He would only remember our anniversary if it was a beer called June 2nd". I don't like coincendences so the fact that June came up twice in the first 10 minutes made me stop and think.

We know that there are rumours Agnes is actually Agatha Harkness who has ties to Scarlet Witch and the FF. There are also rumours that they would introduce the FF as a team from the past that was locked out of time and brought into the MCU through some sort of time travel or Quantum realm.

Well the Hex is giving off massive amounts of Cosmic Radiation, and the FF were created by being hit with Cosmic rays. Agatha was Franklin Richard's nanny in the comics, but the MCU likes to keep the faith of the comics but adjust the details.

I also noted that the clock in the first commercial was missing the numbers 4 and 7. Maybe a nod to the FF or maybe the year they disappeared?

My wild theory.. Agatha Harkness is controlling everything and amplifying Wanda's magic. Norm only told Vision that "she" was in his head, but never who "she" was. We assume it was Wanda because of Monica, but Agnes also called Monica an outsider - possibly because she was under the control of Wanda and not Agnes.

So... In 1947 Agnes was working as a caretaker for Sue and Reed's first child, a daughter named June. When they disappeared in some experiment Agatha took over full time for the child. Something tragic happens and June dies. Mephisto is created/released with the destruction of the infinity stones and Agatha makes contact with him and strikes a deal to trade June's soul for another child.

She uses Wanda's anguish as a tool to get her to form this space to have a child with Vision, with the intent of trading that child for June. I think this also helps explain her reaction when the kids say that Wanda can resurrect the dead. She thinks that Wanda may be able to save June as well, but that falls apart.

It is totally speculation, but I don't like coincidences and that Baby June - Ralph June 2nd combo from the first 5 minutes of the series just won't get out of my head. Probably reading way too much into it (Disney getting exactly what they wanted).
