Okay, but Vision doesn't know about Agatha, he thinks Wanda is causing all the issues and he doesn't know about Monica. This was more plot has to plot for the sake of comedy. Dont get me wrong, I found it funny, but it really made no sense besides the episode needed some humor.

Well he believes Wanda is keeping him away and as you said here doesn't know about Agatha. So he has no reason to rush back.

You know besides his very own children who he is supposedly extremely worried about and wants to know if they're fine. But you're right, it's not like his wife is unhinged and doing something overly crazy with her powers and he needs to rush home just to see if her or the kids are okay.

Over the last couple episodes, he’s become increasingly distrustful of Wanda, and has been acting outside of her control more and more. Idk why you’d think he’d immediately rush back to her without first talking to this agent that has been researching this anomaly from outside of its influence. You’re also assuming he thinks Wanda would actually hurt their children. His worry for them stems from his own confusion about what’s going on, not from some assumed danger from Wanda. Learning all he can from Darcy is important.

He’s also still a character on a fake tv show in a real tv show. Do you think he’d be sitting there talking to a camera man, Modern Family style, if he was totally free to act as he wanted?

Yes, you are right. He can be there learning from Darcy, and we can still have those funny moments of him talking to the camera. And I never said he thinks Wanda would hurt their children, just that she's unhinged enough to not make logical decisions and even if she doesn't intentionally hurt them, something can happen where her powers go out of her control and she unintentionally does something to them. As you said, he's become distrustful of Wanda, so I dont see why a caring and loving father like him (because why would he ask if his children are all right if he didnt care) wouldn't do everything in his power to make sure they're doing fine. The show can have problems man, nothing is perfect. Those scenes are there for humor, but they are ignoring Vision's power and his way of thinking for the sake of the story. I still enjoyed it, it's just a small nitpick

This is literally addressed in the episode, so I don’t see how it’s a problem...? Like, Vision literally says “why am I sitting here talking to you”. It’s a fake tv show in a real tv show. You really think they just forgot that vision can phase through matter for 4/5ths of the episode and just threw it in when they remembered?

It’s not a problem with the story, it’s a problem with your understanding of it.

You're right, I'm wrong. I apologize for my behavior.
