Wanda Maximoff's journey of grief shows us that grief and sorrow mean the person, the relationship, mattered. Grief and sorrow are not unhealthy it's how we deal with them that can lead to healing and peace, or to unhealthy coping mechanisms... like taking over a small town and creating an entire fake reality.

Licensed therapist Jonathan Decker and filmmaker Alan Seawright are joined by guest, licensed therapist Kati Morton, to talk about Wanda's magicallyenhanced maladaptive daydreaming to cope with the loss of Vision. Wanda's faced a lot of trauma in her life, and isn't ready to cope with it in a healthy way, but over the course of her story, arrives in a healthier place. Of course, Elizabeth Olsen and Paul Bettany's brilliant performances make the story all the more heartwrenching. (Yes, many tears are shed in this episode.)
