When she said she feels lighter I took it as the curse was weighing her down. When the trial started she was sharing the curse with the rest of them hence felt lighter.
Cool that it was an anagram for Vidal but it still sucks because Alice still didn’t get her Advil. Lol 😂. Come on, the road is full of trauma and hard hitting challenges that will give anyone a headache. Give this witch her Advil.
Don't forget about when Lilia randomly screamed at her shop and yelled, "Get off me," before they sang in episode 2. In the last episode, she also randomly said, "I love you guys." She's a diviner, so these should be premonitions of something yet to come.
19:45 I like how it seems that this part fits when she’d say, “I love you guys.” Just something I caught as well when I watched it the first time, I was like, some of these moments make sense. Her premonitions.
In episode 2, Lilia’s list had a heart at the end. A “black heart” someone noted, but Agatha brushed that off as being the ink of her pen. Agatha went with the WandaVision misdirect to go to Mrs. hart, aka Sharon. But in Episode one, Rio told Agatha she was a “black heart, and it beats for you.” It was always supposed to be Rio on the list.
So, with Rio, I feel like they're hinting towards her being a psychopomp, a being that takes the souls of the dead to the afterlife. First, she happens to appear from Sharon's recently dug grave. Next, she talks about getting 'her bodies' after Agatha drains the other witches. Finally, Agatha says "don't" to her when Teen's life is in danger.
9:27 she's a Divination Witch so I guess it may be some predictions , some future dialogues maybe She said a few other too "I love you guys" "Get off me"
The moment at 19:49... There was a moment in an earlier episode where Liliana said "I love you guys" out of nowhere and I think that was where she went. If that makes sense.
It's interesting because "That boy isn't yours" linguistically could have multiple meanings. Teen may or may not be connected to Agatha's son, but Rio may also have been saying that her son was paid as a price or was intended to be taken as some unforeseen deal with the devil and is no longer Agatha's... It may have been Rio's job to do it. Hell, if it was teen, Rio may be tagging along to clear her "scar" of unfinished work if Agatha put the sigil on him masking his identity to all witches. The meaning is currently pretty open.
I see Rio breaking the mood at the end as a truly genuine act of love. She knew Agatha was trying to convince herself that Teen COULD be her son, and that was why her hostility to Rio was fading. She could have let the kiss happen, let Agatha feel better, have hope (however false), and rekindle their romance. But she chose to "rip the Band-aid" off Agatha's wishful thinking. She chose to let Agatha feel pain if it meant a chance at genuine healing, even if it also meant that their moment was broken. Maybe that was the only chance she had to re-spark things. She chose what was best for Agatha, not for herself, and that's love. Next trial should be Agatha's First because the leaves of the path are now purple (the colour of Spirit magic and Agatha's signature colour) Second because the reviewers received the first 4 episodes in advance. Studios almost always make sure to send "screeners" out only to a point just before some big twist or reveal in the series. Once I spotted the leaves it was obvious (I hope)
This show is very color coded. To determine whose trial is next look to the color of the leaves and vines on the road. In this case, they've all turned purple since leaving the second trial. Purple is Agatha's color so my bet the 3rd trial will be for Agatha. We'll probably get the 80s occult episode seen in the promos and Agatha getting possessed next, plus Agatha flashbacks.
I doubt Agatha's trial will be next, mainly because I suspect they'll save hers for last in order to give her more time to grow as a character, particularly in regards to her relationship with Teen. I suspect Lilia's trial is next, as the color of the leaves has matched the element associated with the next trial, blue for water, red for fire, so I think the purple could be for the element of air, especially with how light of a purple it is (I would think they would be a much deeper purple for Agatha).
I suspect Rio is actually Lady Death. Her job involved taking people's life. I suspect she was involved with the death/trade of her son for dark magic. Not only this but here when Teen is dying and Agatha says "don't" to Lillia, the second time she says "don't" looking directly at Rio, as if asking Death not to take him. Rio's taro card is the Grim Reaper. Her outfits have been Black Hooded both in the beginning and when the road changed it for the trial. She is most definitely not just a green witch.
I think the next trials will be Lilia, Rio, Agatha in that order. Because Agatha's has to be last, and they probably want to keep up the mystery of Rio a little longer.
Looks like Teen’s identity is not Nicholas Scratch and maybe Billy Kaplan instead 🤔 Scarlet Witch’s sons aren’t going to stay erased and that sigil could be Wanda’s
I'm sure others will be along with the deep cuts, but I couldn't help noticing that Jen said she had no musical ability so they put her on bass. This is a reference to all musicians' jokes ever. And the Sex Pistols.
@@rockerojerez349 The comics have a really farfetched explanation as to how Wanda's son was 'created'.- Not going to spoil it here, but I really hope they are not going this route.
Theory/Confirmed: In episode 3 when Sharon was getting stuck in the mud, I believe that was green witch activity trying to take Sharon's soul. In episode 4, they summoned Rio/THE green witch, we all know that Rio might be death or the grim reaper. So Rio must've tried to take Sharon's soul down so she could replace her. And also in episode 4 when they were making Sharon a grave and summoned Rio, Rio came out of Sharon's grave. Emme asked, "Is Sharon still in the grave?" Meaning one thing... Rio must've took her soul.
Okay so hear me out Teen wrote the spell to summon a green witch Agatha said, presumably to him, i didnt know you had it in you (did he kill Sharon??) Maybe he knew they needed a body to summon THE green witch with that spell. Rio wants her bodies Hmm...
Teen is definitely Billy Maximoff or Wiccan. That was pretty much known before the show came out, so I'm surprised they are hiding it. Agatha's son is probably the ***** from Wandavision. I think he'll probably be the villain. Cool show, though, keeps you guessing.
There is an off-chance that Teen is a manifestation/incarnation/avatar of Mephisto. Most likely not, but that name has been dropped in the show. (As opposed to the speculation about him in WandaVision.)
At this point, I really want Teen to be Agatha's son because if he isn't, then the show is just putting Agatha through so much pain that it might lead to her being killed off. Alice's pain is understandable; we all know what it's like to go through grief and feel anger. I think it’s significant that the show mentioned how, once a witch puts a sigil on someone, they also forget it happened. So, if Agatha did that, she wouldn’t even remember it, which is just so sad. Hopefully, we’ll get more clues about whether Teen is Billy or Nicholas. As always, I love your reactions, and I can't wait to see more of what you think! Edit: I don't believe anything that comes out of Rio's mouth because Marvel has convinced us by this point that Teen is Agatha's son. If that's a red herring, I’ll cry even more.
I had hoped it was Billy, I think that makes more sense given the history of the characters but after this episode I wouldn’t be upset if it turned out to be Nicholas. As a comics reader, there are a TON of clues leading to Billy/Wiccan and I previously said I would be pissed if THAT were a red herring. But I’ve changed my mind. I felt empathy for Agatha for the first time and I wanted to her to get some closure and happiness. Hahn crushed those scenes and I find myself rooting for her.
Everything except the mystery. I have to overlook it. It may be my background but I can see they are being way too blunt about the clues and have been right since that first episode. Also am aware of the comic books is based on which may be spoiling it. I'm being cagey as not to spoil this for anyone though but I am sitting here when they mystery drags going "Okay but get to it please and stop playing footsie with me". I'm thinking it's a long show and it's following the WandaVision format where the first block of episodes was just devoted to setting and character establishment. I'm keeping in mind there is probably going to be a mask off moment in the middle and then it will kick into high gear. Obviously we devoted episodes to character synopsis and the next is going to be Patti LuPone's Lila. Since you got there already though and I think anyone else will soon given how blunt they are. First episode in the crime drama illusion only Agatha experienced. A faceless "victim" with familiar coloration on the fingers is discovered. Plaza's character is introduced out of seemingly nowhere, "the expert". Agatha in her detective delusion is grieving of a son named Nicholas Scratch. Plaza's character shows up and begins petitions Agatha. Locke's character shows up out of the blue, a character seemingly very aware of Agatha, the real one, and everything this plot entails. Notably he also has the same black coloration on his fingers at this point. He misses his mother in particular and Agatha feels a kinship to this. Plaza's character notably vanished at this point. Plaza's character, whose only desire is she wants Agatha to die, rather she wants to claim her, and Locke's continue to interact with Agatha working to break her from the spell she is under. Plaza points her again to victim and notes there are "two victims", not one. The names Wanda Maximoff and Agatha herself. So with this episode go from there. That said I LOVE performance driven pieces. And this is. It is exactly like watching a nightly stage play right down those elaborate, vibrant sets and intricate wardrobes. And obviously the music. I also am enjoying as of this episode the character synopsis. They did some layer peeling here and arc blending which is enjoyable. Obviously music numbers seems to be a regular feature (I adore the idea of musical incantations btw so this was nice), again another thing you would see in stage plays. So I am invested anyways but am forcing myself to overlook that sore spot in regards to the mystery subplot. Oh and I love your hair btw. Sorry, I got distracted by an overstimulated cat the last time I passed through your channel and didn't get to type that.
There’s no way that kid isn’t Billy/Wiccan. He acts like him in some of the recent comics, he absolutely looks like him and it would have the sigil make a ton of sense. Please don’t be another stupid Ralph Boener situation 🙏
The problem I have with the theory that "Teen" is one of Wanda's kids is that they were never real, at least not in this reality. So if that turns out to be Billy or Tommy then I'm going to need a damn good explanation of why and how he's here.
they weren't even real in the comics, so it's the same. they will definitely go with the reincarnation plot (dunno if they'll keep the whole mephisto's soul parts part). the question is - did billy's soul went back in time in the mcu just like in comics or are they changing it to a possession of a dead body (*cough* car accident *cough*)
Yeah this episode gave it away for sure. I like that they are repurposing Thanos lusting after her in the comics (and Deadpool) and reassigning that tension to Agatha. It works.
When she said she feels lighter I took it as the curse was weighing her down. When the trial started she was sharing the curse with the rest of them hence felt lighter.
Lighter seen being used by Alice’s mom. ‘I feel lighter’, Followed by fire? Idk just a weird observation, probably nothing.
Well the curse demon was likely literally sitting on her shoulders her whole life

Alice asking for advil, and then we get rio vidal, it was an anagram 🤣
Cool that it was an anagram for Vidal but it still sucks because Alice still didn’t get her Advil. Lol 😂. Come on, the road is full of trauma and hard hitting challenges that will give anyone a headache. Give this witch her Advil.
Rio is so chill, she knows she can't be affected by the curse
Agatha caring for teen genuinely got me choked up. 😢💜
Don't forget about when Lilia randomly screamed at her shop and yelled, "Get off me," before they sang in episode 2. In the last episode, she also randomly said, "I love you guys." She's a diviner, so these should be premonitions of something yet to come.
The first one already happened i think, when Sharon walked away in ep 3, she said "Get off me" when she got caught on the branches of the tree
@@moonvade9245Oohhh good catch, I assumed her divinations would be from her perspective but that does make sense
19:45 I like how it seems that this part fits when she’d say, “I love you guys.” Just something I caught as well when I watched it the first time, I was like, some of these moments make sense. Her premonitions.
@@moonvade9245 now I'm going to have to go back and re-watch everything to see if I can catch any of the others lol.
alice felt lighter because the curse lifted itself from her back and went on everyone else

Am I the only one who already knew the ballad by heart so I noticed Agathas play with "coven two" instantly😂

Next, she talks about getting 'her bodies' after Agatha drains the other witches. Finally, Agatha says "don't" to her when Teen's life is in danger.

She said a few other too
"I love you guys"
"Get off me"

Since we only get a few more episodes of this series, for more Marvel Aubry Plaza I highly recommend the show Legion. It's just as bonkers.
off topic af but girl your hair is a DREAM
I'm laughing every time you mention snacks. And now I'm hungry....Argh!
I think the next episode will be ÁGATHA's challenge!!! It's going to be awesome and the ending is surprising
This trials costumes are very ABBA I’m so here for it
And Agatha looks like Cher UUGGHH YESSSS
I see Rio breaking the mood at the end as a truly genuine act of love.
She knew Agatha was trying to convince herself that Teen COULD be her son, and that was why her hostility to Rio was fading. She could have let the kiss happen, let Agatha feel better, have hope (however false), and rekindle their romance.

rio vidal is river of life so this is definitely not a reach
Thank you, Emme! 🧙♀
Alice felt lighter because she shared the curses burden.
Midnight mass was AWSOME !Love these mini series .. Bly manor, hill house, etc! But damn that was good! I love Agatha !
She felt lighter because her attachment was lifted & off her back
17:14 surprise Mochi cameo!! Rio is just April Ludgate if she was a witch 😂
I think the next trials will be Lilia, Rio, Agatha in that order. Because Agatha's has to be last, and they probably want to keep up the mystery of Rio a little longer.
Welp lol

Yea this show is better than I expected it to be tbh I still think he's either Wanda's or Agatha's son...
My bingo card for today didn't have Emme being "More cowbell...er, Zils!"
It'd be kinda Feige if Teen turned out to be the true antagonist at the end.

WHAT ABOUT THE HEART SHAPED HERB THAT WERE IN BE BACKGROUND!! When the teen was dying. I thought those were only in WAKANDA
I never saw any heart shaped herbs. No matter how many times I watched it.

Billy Kaplan is not Billy Maximoff. IIRC, Billy Kaplan is a reincarnation of Billy and Tommy.
Love you Emme
Teen is Wiccan
Rio is Lady Death aka Death aka Deadpool’s biggest fan
The MCU has 3 abstract entities now. Eternity, Love and Death
Or Teen doesn’t “belong to” Agatha.
Aubrey Plaza being MCU’s version of Lady Death is the goth we needed 🔥
