The Watcher refuses to help Doctor Strange The Watcher allowed himself to be seen, shocking Palmer, and asked in the same way Strange 'fixed' Christine, reminding Strange how he was warned. While Strange was trying to hold the universe together, Strange saw the Watcher and pleaded for him to help him fix this. However, Strange realized the danger he caused with the frightened Palmer. The other Strange lost and was absorbed by the corrupted Strange, who used his power to bring back Palmer. The Watcher witnessed as the two Doctor Stranges fought each other, as the corrupted Strange's growing power was tearing up his universe.

The Watcher converses with Doctor Strange Strange sensed the Watcher's presence and questioned if anyone was there, to which the Watcher didn't respond. When Strange was absorbing creatures to gain power, the Watcher said that Strange was going down the wrong path and he could interfere, but reminded himself he couldn't do that as the fate of one world doesn't outweigh the fate of all of them, and the Watcher doubted Strange would even listen. The Watcher later witnessed Strange and the Ancient One's fight, which resulted in Strange being divided into two individuals, before Strange used the Time Stone to travel to the distant past.

Strange was still mourning Palmer and decided to try to bring her back by any means necessary, and using the Time Stone to try and save Palmer. The Watcher saw as Strange became a Master of the Mystic Arts, stepped up after the Ancient One's death, and stopped Dormammu. The Watcher noted that in this world, Strange lost his 'heart' instead of his hands while seeing Strange grieve. While Strange survived with no scratches, Palmer was killed in the crash. The Watcher saw as Stephen Strange and Christine Palmer went to a gala but crashed en route. The Watcher later ventured into a different reality, once there the Watcher said how he had seen decisions can cause new stories, heroes, and universes rise, but what would happen if the wrong choice was chosen and what consequences would come. You, more than anyone else, should understand that meddling with time and events only leads to more destruction.' ―The Watcher to Doctor Strange 'Honestly, if I could fix this, if I could punish you instead, I would. The Watcher observes Phil Coulson driving The Watcher observed Star-Lord's time with the Ravagers, their theft of the Embers of Genesis from the Collector to give to the galaxy, until he reunited with his family in Wakanda, where the Watcher noted that while his family reunion was nice, the reunion between Ego and Quill that was happening concurrently would most likely mean the end of that universe. The Watcher questioned if someone's nature was a result of the individual or their reality, before looking back at when T'Challa was abducted from Wakanda and brought in before the Ravagers, noting how it happened, before observing the present. The Watcher began by looking when T'Challa stole the Orb on Morag and recruited Korath the Pursuer into the Ravagers. Instead of returning him, Yondu Udonta kept him as his own son, leading him to become the Star-Lord of that reality. The Watcher observed an alternate universe in which the Ravagers mistakenly abducted T'Challa, thinking that he was Peter Quill. But in this universe, Yondu outsourced the assignment to his subordinates.' ―The Watcher 'As fate would have it, at that very moment, a Ravager spacecraft was arriving on Earth to abduct the spawn of the Celestial, Ego. The Watcher observed that universe as events played out, with Captain Carter grabbing the Tesseract, saving the 107th with Rogers in the HYDRA Stomper, Rogers' capture by HYDRA, and their fight against Champion of HYDRA, and saw when Captain Carter was transported into the 21st century. He then observed the first alternate universe, seeing how Peggy Carter chose to stay in the room and take the Super Soldier Serum instead of Steve Rogers and became the heroine known as Captain Carter. The Watcher recalled how in the main timeline the Nazis started World War II and how it forced the SSR to make Steve Rogers into the super soldier known as Captain America.

But in another universe, a single choice created a whole new hero.' ―The Watcher After turning the tide of World War II, he made the ultimate sacrifice, restoring peace and saving this universe. 'At humanity's darkest hour, a skinny kid from Brooklyn became Captain America.
