Surprise! Agnes wasn't really Agnes at all. But you likely figured that out already, right?Marvel Studios, Marvel Comics
- Warning: There are massive "WandaVision" spoilers ahead.
- The Disney Plus show finally revealed Agnes is Agatha Harkness, a powerful witch in the comics.
- Insider rounds up the hints that tried to tell fans who Agnes really was all along.
"WandaVision" finally confirmed what most fans were already suspicious of all season long.
During a catchy, over-the-top number fit for any Disney villain, Agnes (Kathryn Hahn) revealed she's a powerful witch named Agatha Harkness.
The reveal may have been a bit underwhelming for those who already suspected Agnes was up to no good (us included). Even if you weren't caught off guard, the reveal still may make you want to go back and rewatch the entire show now from a different perspective.
There are a few details you may have missed the first time around that hinted Agnes was behind every bad thing in Westview all along. From Agnes' brooch to her naughty sweatpants, let's go through some of the best hints you may have overlooked.
Let's start with the most obvious clue. Agatha's brooch wasn't fooling anyone.
Comic fans knew it looked familiar.

Ever since the premiere, fans have honed in on the little brooch Agnes has visibly worn through most episodes.
Many have pointed out it's very similar to the brooch Harkness wears in the comics.
Agatha has been referred to as "naughty" since the show's premiere.
The show tried to tell us on episode six that Agnes is up to no good.

"WandaVision" has been trying to tell us Agatha was bad since episode one. On the premiere, Wanda jokes that Agatha is "so naughty." At the time, Wanda had no idea how right she was.
In episode six, if you paused the opening title song for the show, you caught a quick glimpse of the word "Naughty" bedazzled on Agatha's behind.
In the latest episode, Agatha is referred to as "naughty Agatha" during her catchy theme song.
The animated grocery store opening had a blink-and-you'll-miss-it nod to Agatha.
Did you catch the ad for Auntie A's Kitty Litter?

Go back to episode two and take a look at the ads in the grocery store.
The final ad, promoted "Auntie A's Kitty Litter," which seemed a little too on the nose since Agatha Harkness has been referred to as "Aunt Agatha" in the comics.
Agnes even refers to herself fondly as the twins' "Auntie Agnes" in episode five.
Agatha gave Wanda and Vision a similar housewarming gift in the comics and show.
The plant is explained in issue No. 7 of 2015's "Vision."

In the "WandaVision" premiere, Agatha brought Wanda a plant as a housewarming gift.
In the comics, Agatha gifts the couple with a Wundagore Everbloom, a large plant that can allow people to see into the future if they perform a specific, disturbing ritual involving murder.
Agatha referred to Wanda as the "star" of the show. It turns out Wanda really was the star of her show.
Agatha has been making inside jokes and references to Wanda's situation since the start.

Now that we've seen Agatha behind the camera as the woman pulling the strings, it brings a whole different meaning to episode two when Agnes approaches Wanda and says, "Look, it's the star of the show."
Pay attention to when Agatha appears on the show.
Agatha appears to always be acting in Wanda's best interests, but now we know that's not the case.

More than often, Agatha appears because she's trying to control or distract Wanda.
Before Wanda can start questioning a colorful helicopter in her front yard too much, Agatha makes an appearance to take her mind off of it. When Wanda starts getting frustrated by not being able to control her twin sons, Agnes appears to save the day.
Most recently, when Monica tries to speak some sense into Wanda on episode seven, Agatha intervenes once again.
It's clearer now that Agatha has been trying to keep Wanda's mind off of questioning any aberrations in Westview.
Norm was likely trying to warn Vision about Agnes, not Wanda, on episode five.
Norm was afraid of someone. That someone was likely Agnes.
Marvel Studios
When Vision "awakens" Norm in episode five, a terrified Norm says, "You have to stop her. She's in my head." Before he can say who's responsible, Vision puts him back to how he was before.
At the time, it was easy to presume Norm was referencing Wanda. Now, it looks like he may have been talking about Agnes.
