Within an inner sanctum, Strange reads that the power needed is immense, but that he can “gain the power through the absorption of other beings.”

Big Cag supposedly knew how to break an Absolute point in time, so that’s the ticket for Strange. He meets a figure named O’Bengh (Ike Amadi), and in Marvel Comics this is possibly the name of Cagliostro himself. Nothing bad ever happened from reading a book! He transports out however and ends up in the jungle, looking for the Lost Library of Cagliostro. “Stephen, this path only leads to darkness and the end of this reality,” she answers, before attacking him. If you erase her death, you never start your journey.” He isn’t listening. “Without her death, you would never have defeated Dormammu…” she continues, “…and become the Sorcerer Supreme, and the guardian of the Eye of Agamotto. “Her death is an Absolute Point in time.” The Ancient One eventually appears and tells Strange that she can’t bring her back, no one can. “I only want you, you’re the only thing that matters.” No dice, she still ends up dead. “Why does this keep happening? Aren’t we allowed to be happy?” he asks as she drives the car in another attempt. If he doesn’t show up at all, a news broadcast given by Christine Everhart (Leslie Bibb from Iron Man and Iron Man 2) lets him know that she still dies. If they get pizza instead, Christine dies at gunpoint. What if… Strange ignored that advice and did many reckless things? He uses the Eye to return to the night of the accident, but no matter how he drives it still happens. Up late one night, Wong tells him not to do anything reckless. It’s Rachel McAdams, we wouldn’t be either. He goes on to become the Sorcerer Supreme and defeats Dormammu (he comes to bargain), but two years later he’s not over Christine. Can he use it for time travel and save Christine? Both Wong (Benedict Wong) and The Ancient One (Tilda Swinton) chide him for the thought. In case we didn’t get what was different here, the Watcher ( Jeffrey Wright) lets us know: “In this universe, Stephen Strange didn’t lose his hands, but his heart.” It’s Christine’s death that leads Strange to Kamar-Taj, where he comes across the Eye of Agamotto, discovered by Cagliostro. Strange’s hands are fine! Christine is dead. They are very much in love, but too bad, here comes that car accident. Christine Palmer (Rachel McAdams) is in the car with Stephen (Benedict Cumberbatch), and they’re not estranged at all. The title of this episode is, “What if… Doctor Strange Lost His Heart Instead of His Hands?” and metaphorically that’s exactly what happens at the beginning. ***WARNING: From this point on, there will be spoilers for Episode 4 of Marvel's What If.? If you haven't watched yet, what if you stopped reading this right now.*** But what if it’s the wrong choice? What if the best of intentions has very strange consequences?” Strange consequences indeed, to the point where the Watcher himself is asked to intervene. The car accident that befell him in that movie happens in this episode, but the key difference here is that he's not alone in the car.Īs the Watcher himself says, "We have watched how one moment, one choice can ripple across space and time, giving birth to new stories, heroes, whole universes. Doctor Strange shows him learning the mystic arts to try and heal his broken hands. The Strange depicted here has a different origin than the one we know from the main Marvel Cinematic Universe. Stephen Strange is the focus of Episode 4, and guess what? He makes everything worse. It was only a matter of time before the Sorcerer Supreme got involved in the multi-dimensional hijinks on Marvel's What If.? Dr.
