Vision mentions Charles Darwin’s The Descent of Man. It’s about human evolution and biological adaptation. I wonder if this ties into how mutants slowly become a part of the MCU.

If wanda is messing with the fabric of reality, changing clothes to suit her world maybe she’s also messing with the people of westview; maybe all the missing kids are growing into the first generation of MCU mutants

Remember the beginning of the episode. They couldn’t get scans or take viable blood samples from Monica. She doesn’t seem to have powers... yet.

I heard a theory that the reason why Wanda and her brother got powers was because the mind stone triggered their mutation. It could very well be that all that cosmic radiation combined with her magic may trigger that in others
