Joe Locke wasn’t lying when he said that ep. 7 was the best episode. Makes me feel a little bit nervous about the finale but at least I’ll take comfort I’ll enjoy it more than Secret Invasion
@@Hdub8526I think he said 6 was his favorite but 7 was the one he thought was the best as in what the fans and everyone else will like. 6 was basically his origin story so I don’t blame him.
Just an added note. I don't know if someone already said this, but, when I saw the Salem Seven walking backwards, I remembered a Halloween superstition, where, if you wear your clothes inside out and walked backwards, you'll spot a witch. I think that's pretty neat.
40:13 It is also worth mentioning that Time In A Bottle was released two months after Jim Croce passed in a plane crash, which I feel is particularly pertinent to this episode's themes.
I was surprised that nobody caught the fact that the sigil and the signature of the creator of the tarot cards is the same ….

@@parthjindal1924 They mentioned in the first reaction video that in the past they have had early copies, but they didn't get afforded that for this series.
I also think it is used to continue the Wizard of Oz parallel because they all were following a yellow path and yellow roots but are now reaching their proverbial Emerald city hence the green roots
Seems he was, and it works! A teenager is the very emblem of growth and development, which is what green witchery (gardens, plants, etc.) are also all about. He's also "green" in that he's a newbie, and very "earth" element in that he's very hands on, always eager to do things, to use the "craft" like making potions and brooms and summoning spells.
I am so glad this channel exists. As someone with adhd who has always found it hard to follow stories, this gives them a depth I could never dream to reach on my own.
ok I thought yall wouldve noticed, but when lilia inverts the tower card in the end, we see an electric jolt kind of yellow magic going into the card, probably hinting that the inversion of the tower really was done by lilia's powers ?
One of the deeper meanings I took from this episode is the concept of self-forgiveness and the idea that our past doesn’t define who we are in the present. It reflects how holding onto trauma or mistakes can stunt growth, but when we confront those dark parts of ourselves, we open the door to healing and transformation. Great redemption story, so excited to see if Agatha gets one by the end👏
This episode made me really appreciate characters that have the ability to foresee events in any story. It makes me reimagine them in the tortured nature that they experience.
My last name is Ajer and is pronounced like ager and I was a kid I literally thought teens were called teen and then what their last name was so people were saying I was going to be a teen-Ajer. This joke made my childhood so happy 😂😂😂
22:22 “All witches need that guidance from their future selves” Reminded me of when Harry Potter cast that powerful Patronus in Prisoner of Askaban, to save Sirius and his past self from the dementors, and then says he knew he could do it because he had already seen himself doing it before (in the past when he thought it was his dad)
YESS AND I BELIVE the witches road is actually Billy's hex that he created subconsciously with his magic since he believed the road would give him his brother
I love the “Unstuck Mind” concept! I wrote a short story in high school about a US government department dealing with time travel (this is years before the TVA came to the MCU but a similar aesthetic) and one of the characters suffered from “Temporal Dysplasia”, a result of travelling through time too much and therefore his mind had become temporally entangled, pulling him forward and back through time mentally (but staying in the present physically).
WHAT AN EPISODE!!! :D I've been pretty tired with the MCU but I am so glad I've been keeping up with this series. I literally clapped at my TV at the end lol.
This was my favorite episode of any of the Disney+ shows I’ve watched. Very well done, fun to watch, and when everything started coming together it was so satisfying.
not sure if it was overlooked, but the framing of billy/agatha walking up to the castle is the same framing that we got from lokis1ep5 when they found the citadel. from the front and the back
I may be reaching, but looking back and at this episode I think Billy might have a lot of influence on the road. In ep 7 there are three instances sticking out the first is when Agatha says him being a maximoff is why all of this is dramatic. I think hinting at the road and how it’s been structured and colored. The second is when he wanted lillia with him and they appeared a second later.. The last is when he asked his question and the room basically heeded his emotions and stopped. Coupled with other episodes and how Agatha has carefully laid out the road in front of him specifically he might be the one in control. Which makes the line “you’re so much like your mother” even cooler almost darker in a really subtle and magical way
Anyone notice when Lilia is young talking the sky looks like the inside of the soul stone. Very similar concept if youve played any persona game where tarot is played in the heart of your soul
This episode reminded me of the Watchmen episode A God Walks Into A Bar when we see things from Dr. Manhattan's perspective and how him experiencing all of his existence at once changes his interaction and understanding of time
“What will you do with your remaining time?” That quote just reminds me of Unus Annus, Markiplier and Ethan’s channel from 2019-2020 that asked the question, “What would you do if you knew how much time you had left?” I loved that channel, I loved that message, and I loved this episode.
The 10 of Swords being the “destination” card of Agatha’s condescending spread is actually great though, a body riddled with swords that fell on it from above….
I like how even if it's been 10 years since Interstellar was released , it's refrence and influence is constant on multiple lores related to time and space
You can also tell the sequence of Lilia and Jen’s walk around or scenes based on how filthy they were. They begin as super filthy when they fell off the road and gets cleaner as they approached the bookshelves.
Lilia's jumping reminded me also of Doctor Manhattan in the Watchmen HBO series. It works differently but both versions of time-space travel are very fascinating.
I don't know if it's just me, but it sounds like you can hear Lilia's Voice the clearest nearing the end of "the ballad witch's road" (sacred chant) almost like a town crier warning everyone of what's to come by letting them know of the future events it might just be coincidence or intended foreshadowing.
It feels like everything up to Billy saying "I wish Lilia was here" was just a bit of preamble to get out of the way before the real episode. and yet i loved all that too!!!! Amazing episode.
5:00 Even if wanda ends up being his mother, rebecca is his mom. Shes the one thats been raising him for almost all his life. A lil wordplay to leave the possibility open for both
You got the chariot card symbolism correct. It is also a card that represents victory with a cost. And by the end of this episode that proves quite true.
What if the blurry figure was jen in the tunnels? I also found it really interesting that lilia has a good witch outfit but all the rest have bad ones. Also, I wonder if there were any swords in the middle as that seemed to be where lilia would land (not counting that it's a heck of a fall)
Lovely work again I’ve been a fan for years and i still feel the same joy and intrigue from my first video till now thank you for that for real and long may it continue
I'm surprised noone yet noticed that the way agatha walks up the yellow road with billy, is very reminiscent of how dorothy skips down the yellow brick road
Almost exactly 12 minutes into the episode (and also seen a bit before that) there is a sword that is literary Hofund, the bifrost sword used by heimdall, just smaller. (At exactly 12 minutes in, it is directly in the middle of the screen, and a couple seconds before that it can be seen in the right side of the screen)

Patti Lupone deserves an Emmy for her performance in this show, especially this episode. May Lilia rest in peace.
I greatly agree
She's my favourite character by far
@@matthewgrulke109 uh!!! excuse me? don't get my hopes up please T-T where can i find this?

She’s not dead I refuse to believe
dudes the episode was an audiovisual masterpiece, WHAT? Still processing all the amazing work they put into this series
207 likes and no comets? let me fix that.
The way every weird premonition Lilia had was connected somehow in every way possible...AWESOME
It was great how it was all connected!

Lmao 🤣
When something is infamous, rather than famous!
Jac Schaeffer is a top notch genius! No one's touching that Scarlet Witch movie but her!
and the writers of all the episodes
YES PLEASE! Is Marvel hearing all that?
Preach!
I think Feige is @@constantinosbou
Facts She's an Absolute Genius.
I find it very interesting that characters seem to "die" once they've essentially got what they came for on the road
since witches are just demons, does this mean that they can re-appear?
never clicked faster in my life. this was the best episode of marvel tv since the loki finale,
same😭
True, one of the great series created by Marvel
100% accurate
Lmao nah
@itsnick5082 it is bruh...
Just an added note. I don't know if someone already said this, but, when I saw the Salem Seven walking backwards, I remembered a Halloween superstition, where, if you wear your clothes inside out and walked backwards, you'll spot a witch. I think that's pretty neat.
Ohhhh so they were trying to use this superstition to find Agatha, the witch they would “spot” by walking backwards
I didnt know that.. I just thought they were beiing extra creepy
@@surfacematter2098 I think it’s a reference to Wanda’s first appearance in Age of Ultron where she’s walking backwards with the same stuttery effect
I thought they were walking forward with their heads creepily held back 😂
I remember that
I'm also noticing the similarity between Teen's question of "Am I William or am I Billy?" likening to Lilia's earlier "Am I wispy or am I kooky?"
'a bit of both if I'm being honest'
This episode was so deep that for the first time I’m glad there’s a week between episodes. I need time to process.
Thought it was Agatha I loved, then Billy, but this ep proves it was Lilia All Along😢 Great episode!
Facts: WandaVision, Loki and Agatha All Along are the 3 best MCU shows to date
What If....?
Moon Knight gotta be 4th then
Agree with what if
@@Smkpt42eh it was okay. thanos being all chill and not a mad titan was a literal crime
Moon Knight ahead of WandaVision
the end when it cuts back to kid lillia... i cried😭😭😭
This episode is my favorite so far, from the symbolism to the foreshadowing and time in a bottle at the end was the cherry on top
Fully agree it's such an awesome series
It was really great
40:13 It is also worth mentioning that Time In A Bottle was released two months after Jim Croce passed in a plane crash, which I feel is particularly pertinent to this episode's themes.
I was surprised that nobody caught the fact that the sigil and the signature of the creator of the tarot cards is the same …. Meaning: the Rider-Waite tarot cards for example, (( that the AAA Tarot cards are based on…)) the artist or illustrator of the cards is the one who signs them in the corner. ( where the sigil that Lily placed on Billy is located)
This shows that Lilia has created the tarot deck that’s being used.
They were historically thought to be made back in the days in Italy, when Lilia was a young student…..so it all fits that Lilia is the creator or the artist of the tarot cards that are being used in Agatha All Along
Just wanted to share that with you
Oh, that's so cool!
modern tarot cards were created in Italy so safe to assume Lilia's coven probably the first to use it or even create it
That’s amazing! Thanks for sharing!
@@Jni470 The tarot being used here would not be the ones used originally in Italy. As you say, they're clearly mirroring the Rider-Waite deck, created by Edward Waite, which was an Edwardian take on the 15th century tarot . The artist of Rider-Waite was Pamela Smith.
Holy shit
I’m always impressed that you can analyze, record, produce, and publish these videos so fast, at such a high level!
I'm starting to think these guys jump around in time like Lillia
I think these guys get early access to these episodes and just release the videos according to when we see that episode.
@@parthjindal1924maybe the earlier episodes but not these last ones
He has a team. But yeah, I get what you’re saying.
@@parthjindal1924 They mentioned in the first reaction video that in the past they have had early copies, but they didn't get afforded that for this series.
Also, that smile at the end from young Lilia is just perfect.
I think the green roots might also represent Billy’s trial. Since Billy was supposed to be the coven’s green witch all along!
Exactly. It looks like they are even back in Westview at Wanda and/or Bohners house for the trial.
I also think it is used to continue the Wizard of Oz parallel because they all were following a yellow path and yellow roots but are now reaching their proverbial Emerald city hence the green roots
@@Smitty-Spleeson oh that is a great catch!
Or can it be in some way both Billy’s and Rio’s trial since they are both pegged as Green witches (and both the 🖤).
Seems he was, and it works! A teenager is the very emblem of growth and development, which is what green witchery (gardens, plants, etc.) are also all about. He's also "green" in that he's a newbie, and very "earth" element in that he's very hands on, always eager to do things, to use the "craft" like making potions and brooms and summoning spells.
I am so glad this channel exists. As someone with adhd who has always found it hard to follow stories, this gives them a depth I could never dream to reach on my own.
Someone please make a video showing episode 7 but in chronological order. Not in lilia's pov, but other characters pov.
this is EXACTLY what I want!
I want to be notified when this is made lol
I was thinking about this all day!
.
I came here to make the same request!
This was BY FAR THE Best episode ive ever seen. The visuals, the switching between the different times, JUST EVERYTHING😭
ok I thought yall wouldve noticed, but when lilia inverts the tower card in the end, we see an electric jolt kind of yellow magic going into the card, probably hinting that the inversion of the tower really was done by lilia's powers ?
I assumed that was a given?
Yeah that’s kinda obvious
Obviously??
This was so well done 😊
@@J.O.R.D It is but no one has been talking about it.
Did no one else notice that the golden seams through the dirt tunnel are similar to Japanese kintsugi, like the Citadel at the End of Time in "Loki"?
I did! I just bought a kit on Amazon.
Yup I noticed that. They love thay design 😂
literally been on my phone waiting for this one😭😭
I second that
Its crazy cause this video is longer than the episode lol I LOVE IT
Real
SAME
@@DAIRYdelinquentright?! It’s so sad! The Wanda vision episodes felt longer to me because they had so much dialogue
This episode imo is my absolute favorite. The disorientation we feel as we follow Lilia was so surreal and an experience that's so fun to rewatch
this episode is easily one of the best screen writing I've ever seen. a well-planned chaos. I love it!
21:43 blew my mind thinking of it from that perspective that this is all just a slight glimpse of young Lilia's tea leaf lesson! Genius!
i also think billy could be the half moon, since it’s possible that billy is searching for tommy or his other “half”
+he wants to know who he really is, because rn he feels like 2 people at once
This was truly an amazing episode. RIP Lilia ❤ you were the best of the coven.
This episode was absolutely excellent, just brilliant!

This episode made me really appreciate characters that have the ability to foresee events in any story. It makes me reimagine them in the tortured nature that they experience.
I like that Jen is dressed as the evil queen from snow white. Much like Jen, the evil queen dabbled with magick, specifically potions.
And is more than a little vain 😁
Also all the the mentions of "WIND" and the fall that this was the trial of Air.
Even though I didn’t understand everything fully while watching, I still got chills. It did something to me, definitely the best episode so far
My last name is Ajer and is pronounced like ager and I was a kid I literally thought teens were called teen and then what their last name was so people were saying I was going to be a teen-Ajer. This joke made my childhood so happy 😂😂😂

“All witches need that guidance from their future selves”
Reminded me of when Harry Potter cast that powerful Patronus in Prisoner of Askaban, to save Sirius and his past self from the dementors, and then says he knew he could do it because he had already seen himself doing it before (in the past when he thought it was his dad)
The acting in this episode is TOP NOTCH
22:27 The subway tunnels are their way off the road in the finale, and Mrs. Hart referenced them before. The "failed underground railway system"
Amazing catch!
Thought so too;
YESS AND I BELIVE the witches road is actually Billy's hex that he created subconsciously with his magic since he believed the road would give him his brother
Came here to say this. Lovely callback.
I also think the "WV Metro" might stand for WandaVision in addition to WestView

Temporal Dysplasia… have you seen Stitchers by any chance?
Sounds like the uncle in About Time, since only the men Time travel
I think this episode is such a beautiful display of the time-slipping type of time travel from Slaughterhouse Five, LOST, and Agents of Shield!
Okay?
When was the time slipping in AOS?

Memento mori
The background on the Knight of Wands is the from the Red Rocks amphitheater, where Alice got her protection tattoo.
Time being linear being the route popular in mcu makes me happy because Fitz in AOS said this way back in s3 that we can’t necessarily change it.
The 10 of Swords being the “destination” card of Agatha’s condescending spread is actually great though, a body riddled with swords that fell on it from above….
Ya, I kinda wish he talked about the cards. I think that card foreshadowed the end of the episode

jac schaeffer confirmed all the seven are dead in the after-ep interview.
Hmm. Good to know. That shoots down my little theory from a few minutes earlier. (lol!)
Lilia's jumping reminded me also of Doctor Manhattan in the Watchmen HBO series. It works differently but both versions of time-space travel are very fascinating.

@@natez-b39 I need to rewatch that movie so badly!
Honestly i want those freaking cards from agatha all along they are soooo coollll😍
It makes me wonder if their coven are actually the witches of the Tarot.

"YOU KNOW HOW LOOOOONG I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS?"
Approximately 70 hours.
WOOIMABOUTMAKEANAMEFORMYSELFHERE LOL.
One of the best episode in the series. I love every minute of it.
Lilia agrees with Nell from ‘Haunting of Hill House’… “it’s all just confetti”.
Dang your explanation at the end gave me chills. That is such a beautiful message they wove into that episode!
This episode is a mystical masterpiece ✨✨✨
34:47 it just occurred to me that WV could stand for west view or wanda vision. Nice touch.
Second half of this series is really cooking. For a minute, I thought it was just gonna be a series of witchy escape rooms.
I didn't realize till just now seeing 39:31, that the roof of the tower in the card is shaped and colored like Billy's crown
And the flash that hits the tower is his brother's symbol. The boys falling from the tower are dressed like Wiccan and Speed.
39:23 there was a crow, an owl, and a cicada. Three can fly. I think they are all dead since we see them all fall
I know they keep saying 2 this 2 that but it is 3.
That's what I've been thinking too
It feels like everything up to Billy saying "I wish Lilia was here" was just a bit of preamble to get out of the way before the real episode. and yet i loved all that too!!!! Amazing episode.
Teared me up in those last few minutes 🥹
Episode 7 was easily THE BEST episode of the series and most creative MCU episode ive seen. SO GOOD. The Camera-work and creativity was AMAZING.
i need someone to chronogically order this episode
5:00 Even if wanda ends up being his mother, rebecca is his mom. Shes the one thats been raising him for almost all his life. A lil wordplay to leave the possibility open for both

You got the chariot card symbolism correct. It is also a card that represents victory with a cost. And by the end of this episode that proves quite true.
I love that insight you have about this episode in finding purpose even at the end of your life. Very profound.

Well…Malificent is actually a fairy, which makes sense for Billy since he is a magical (and magic using) creature 🤔
3:32. What's up, Danger?
