Trivia
When Vision phases through the wall into Wanda's room, this is apparently the first time he has done this. We see later on in Captain America: Civil War (2016), that he has done this before when Wanda says "Vis! We talked about this".

Goofs
Earlier in the series, Director Hayward says that Wanda was born in 1989 and that her parents were killed when she was ten years old, placing this episode's Sokovia-set scene in 2000 at the latest. In that scene, Wanda's father has a copy of Malcolm in the Middle (2000) on DVD, even though the first season wouldn't be released on DVD until 2002. Further, the exact boxset of The Dick Van Dyke Show (1961) seen wouldn't be released until 2005.

Quotes
Wanda Maximoff: I'm so tired. It's, it's just like this wave washing over me, again and again. It knocks me down, and when I try to stand up, it just comes for me again. And I... It's just gonna drown me.
Vision: No. No, it won't.
Wanda Maximoff: How do you know?
Vision: Well, because it can't all be sorrow, can it? I've always been alone, so I don't feel the lack. It's all I've ever known. I've never experienced loss because I have never had a loved one to lose. But what is grief, if not love persevering?

Crazy credits
After the Marvel logo appears, it turns purple, the color of Agatha Harkness's magic, and dissolves into smoke.

THE BEST EPISODE YET

This was the best episode yet of WandaVision, it was so emotional, so well directed, so well written, it answered some questions, everything is leading for the last episode to be even better, I can't wait for next week.
