The traits for Wiccan aka billy aka William aka Wanda’s son are his traits Family- who is he searching for his brother even though his spirit is in a new body he still has that connection to his brother and to Wanda. Wisdom- who was the one giving out the answers to every trial so far billy was it was always him finding out things before anyone else he also knew a lot of about magic even though it was only analog magick aka written spells and the clue about the hexenbeson to create the flying brooks this so screams wisdom- Wealth- I don’t think they mean money wealth I think it means wealth of power billy may not know how to control his magic yet just like Wanda she went through the same thing but make no mistake just like his mother wanda billy is extremely powerful without even trying to be so he’s wealthy in power and he’s wealthy in love he may Not have met them again yet but his mother wanda and brother Tommy loves him dearly that’s another reason he’s on the road trying to find his family Tommy first but we all know then Wanda Strength- he is not only powerful of body but also powerful in mind even though for the last 3 yrs he’s had it very hard he’s had to live as William Kaplan for all this time and give love and support to this body’s parents and still on the side searching up magic and making connections and trying to figure out who he truly was Fertility/ 1. Reality-Warping Powers: Wiccan’s abilities allow him to alter reality on a fundamental level. This could include influencing or enhancing fertility. He might be able to help someone conceive or even reverse infertility by altering physical or magical conditions. 2. Mythological and Symbolic Connections: In mythology, magic and fertility are often interconnected. Wiccan’s powers, which are partly derived from chaos magic like his mother Wanda Maximoff (Scarlet Witch), could symbolically be linked to creation, growth, and new life. Fertility is also tied to the concept of creation, a fitting parallel to his ability to create and manipulate reality. 3. Lineage and Heritage: Billy is the son of the Scarlet Witch, whose own powers have often been tied to concepts of creation, chaos, and the natural cycles of life. His magical heritage might mean that his abilities have a natural affinity toward life-giving or generative aspects. 4. Magical Practices: Fertility rituals and spells are a significant part of many magical traditions. As Wiccan develops his skills, he might explore or naturally tap into these areas, particularly if his reality-warping abilities allow him to influence biological processes. So yes when we think green witch we think green powers and Billy’s powers are blue But I think Rio like she says in episode 3 she’s the original green witch and her voice went demonic I think this is true that she was in fact the original green witch but she was corrupted either before or after she maybe became death and I think when that happened it kind of changed what it means to be a green witch but again Billy’s powers are on a entirely different level then there’s and his magic like his moms Wanda’s is very flexible and different so unlike there’s his can change and formulate to what he wants emotionally
I do believe the road is real but I think the road that there on is conjured up and connected to the spirit world and I think the road is being warped around billy just like Wanda as his powers come from her His magic works without him even having to do anything all he has to do is think a thought and remember he also like his mother can warp reality just like Wanda so I think that’s what’s happening I believe that because he’s searching for Tommy on the road and we’ve already seen and heard the spirit of evenora harkness Agatha’s mother and her son Nicholas I believe because Tommy does not know how to use or tap into the magic imbued inside him from his mom Wanda he wasn’t able to do the same thing as billy meaning I think billy will find Tommy’s soul in the spirit world which is apart of the road and he will have to find a body or create a body to place Tommy’s spirit into 🥰 And then they’ll search for mommy dearest aka Wanda 🥰🥰
Fyi: in the new marvel promo trailer for episode 7 released by marvel studios a couple of days ago, you can see agatha towards the end of the trailer, during the end of the earth 🌎 trial part of it, floating in the air, all cut ✂️ up, wearing the same cloths she has on now, the sky around her is all dark, she's smiling 😃, and most inportantly she's absorbing purple power!! Pretty sure this confirms she survives the road, weather or not she survives billy an rio afterwards is another question. 🤔 Oh, you gotta pause it to see the image cause it keeps flashing on an off the screen. Like flashes of light. Pay attention you'll see 👀 it. Hope that helps 🙏
@AbitofEverything4U yup. I think this means the last shot of series, last scene we the audience get to see, is rio walking away from the house 🏠 as it's blowing up, all decked out in her costume, the scene seen, in the trailer. An the audience is left to speculate if billy survived the cave in or not from the earth trial. Kinda cool both billy an wanda get crushed by rock an dirt, an how marvel leaves it to us, to wonder, what's next?? 🤔 Next episode, air trial, wizard of oz castle. Last 2 episodes, take place in the basement of the house 🏠, earth trial, episode 8, and outside the house 🏠, agathas past revealed flash backs, an her fight with Rio, and her shouting I want my prize, an then she gets it, then rio walks away.. Pretty sure she's attempting to offer billy up to rio in return for her prize in the end, by capturing him in the cave in too.. Should make for a good ending.. Can't wait to see how billy escapes the cave in, an the aftermath of everything between the 3 of them, an how it all plays out. Not to mention, how both billy an wanda got caved in on too. Very cool concept an idea.
Here's my thoughts ---and they are long. Sorry about that. I think Jennifer Kale and Lilia Calderu haven't risen from the mud because they fell through ground and into Westview's failed underground public transit system, mentioned by Sharon Davis in episode 3. There is a modern light fixture in the frame to the left of Lilia and Jen, I think this underground system was still under construction. My speculation is they follow the transit system, go through a utility door and right into Lilia's trial where they are reunited with Agatha and Billy. This episode will probably start the mystery of what exactly is the origin of this particular witches' road. Up until now, the Salem Seven have not been able to enter into a witches' trial. I think Billy losing his spell book in episode 5 was done so the Salem Seven can find it on the road and use it to break whatever seal there is to a trial. That's probably how they are able to get into Lilia's trial. It true, it's curious how important Billy is for the witches to continue their progress down the road and through the trials. Now that we know Rio isn't a coven member and necessary for the trials, we probably won't see much of her until her big reveal. That could potentially be at the end of Lilia's trial if a witch dies. Other than that, Rio could be on the witches' road just to create mischief for Agatha and potentially Billy on the way to the Earth trial and the big fight in Westview. Lilia has been evoking Tarot cards all through the series, the only three cards left are the Two of Cups (Lilia's card), The Magician (Billy's card?) and Death (Rio's card). I believe each of these cards will have major revelations, The Magician card might reference a future reveal with Billy but the last card, Death, probably will lead to one of series big reveals and possibly the last word spoken by a witch. As this could be Lilia's last episode, I expect a lot of flashbacks connecting her outbursts and the mystery to why she put the sigil on Billy. The sigil worked for both William Kaplan & Billy Maximoff. My speculation is it was designed to protect Billy's & William's identity from Agatha (also to hide William Kaplan's body from Death) so she could act as a guide down the 'witches' road' (Spirit as our guide). The end of the road potentially brings Billy's/William's two halves into one. If Agatha is a spirit witch, according to her trial, perhaps she can tap William Kaplan spiritually in the morgue to merge his soul with Billy's? Jac Shaeffer references Joe Locke's character as Billy Kaplan but that name is not referenced in the show yet. William Kaplan is never referenced as Billy despite that being a nickname. It's possible the Earth trial is about integrating Billy's two halves -BILLY Maximoff & William KAPLAN, with the memories of their previous lives which creates a merged BILLY KAPLAN. Perhaps the timer above them is counting down to Westview's public transit system concrete ceiling, err, I mean the witches' road, comes crashing down upon them. Agatha and Billy escape through the exit. Jennifer Kale pulls herself through the open earth into Westview. I believe the end of the road is what Lilia predicted -the consolidation of Billy Kaplan. The only way to save the 'good egg' who was standing in front of her at his bar mitzvah. The end of the road wasn't about finding Tommy Maximoff although there could be clues to his whereabouts but instead BILLY Maximoff/William KAPLAN merging into Billy Kaplan, i.e. Wiccan. Finding Tommy was only Billy's motivation to take the journey. The road gives you what you need not what you want. I think when Billy Kaplan returns home it will be a true reunion with his parents and yes, Greg the dog will run right up to him recognizing him as a part of the Kaplan family. Agatha completes the witch's road also, but what she wants ('the prize') is for her son, Nicholas Scratch to return to her. If Billy is injured or considered dead (akin to the 'body by the creek') in a final fight with Rio (Death), I believe the feet being pulled out of frame by vines are Billy's. Agatha might beg Rio to put Nicholas into Billy Kaplan's body. Of course, this could create a conflict because I believe Death has been trying to collect William Kaplan's body for herself. This may cause Agatha and Rio to fight each other. Perhaps Agatha realizes during the fight that what she wants isn't what she needs -and what she needs is to be a mother again. The director of episode 9 said at the premiere, the episode had a music video in it. I speculate that means a video like Agatha All Along' in WandaVision episode 7. Perhaps Wiccan's full transformation is done in a music video. I don't know if he can defeat Death, but the fight may end in a stalemate. Because William Kaplan merged with Billy Maximoff in the body she was trying to take, Death may no longer have claim over it. Lastly, what Billy Kaplan is wearing while standing upon the pentagram of blue light isn't something we've seen him wear before. He's not wearing a hoodie but a light blue jacket and his shirt I believe has horizonal white and blue stripes. Can't make out any eyeliner but he does have black fingernails. He looks cleaned up. This has to be Billy Kaplan after the fight with Rio. I don't have any other context for that scene except he looks to be drawing his magic from the entrance of the witch's road.
@@larkin2662 great theories. I doubt that the spell book has anything to do with the salem seven though since we can see agatha stealing it when they enter the ”trial” (the song talks about tricks and trials and this trial is very different from the others. The aspect ratio does not change like previously and they exit up the witches road and not down the witches road like the sing says)
@@ILoveJapan28A if you watch frame by frame when they enter the ”trial” you can see she bumps into Billy. Technically you dont see her steal it but it is implied.
Absolutely hate all this stuff about merging souls, bodies, characters. How is this gonna work? Are they gonna have one conscience for two? Like, why? People was saying about Nicholas before. Maybe we should put in Nicholas' soul too? "Billy 3in1" Why do we need this vinegret? Just so Greg can recognize William? To appease his parents? That was a good adaptation: William's body with Billy's soul. William's soul died, Billy took his place.
I think Billy isn’t in the final boss battle with Rio cuz he’s closing the door to the witches road which traps Agatha and Rio and Agatha said to do it, possibly sacrificing herself and keep Rio from killing Billy. Which Rio maybe wanted to do the entire time.
Billie being the green witch doesn’t necessarily have to pertain to him being an earth witch but green as in new. He is the youngest member of the coven and newest to the craft itself.
Bingo I did not see that one but look at his left earing after the sidual is broken like the start of this vid. It is a Black Hear earing I dont remeber seeing before. Also that would mean Billy would not have heard the last name in the coven correctly because of the sidual
I think with her being a spirit witch Agatha will learn she can do more than absorb power. She asked for them to teach her to control it but they condemned her as evil. I think, either through Billy or the Road, she will discover she can also give life and that will be how Alice is brought back.
Something that hasn't been addressed is many people dont think Agatha has done the road before. Why do in universe people believe she did. What would she have gotten at the end. Not the Darkhold. Not her drain.
I agree...it seems the coven believes Agatha, even though it seems that Agatha is making things up as she goes along. I suspect we'll get an answer to this mystery in the final few episodes, but my suspicion is that she hasn't been on the road before.
If you look really hard at the shot of Billy in the pentagram he is wearing a striped white shirt which is interesting because that is what Billy Kaplan's wardrobe was in the flashbacks so i think its after his trail and the two have merged.
Since agatha says "I want my prize!" And rio says "all roads lead to me", I'm inclined to believe the fight with Rio is at the end of the road but then again that raises the question of where Billy is during that scene 🤔
I’m willing to bet that they don’t want to show it because it means revealing Agatha’s fate/there is more stuff they haven’t revealed with him and Rio - they want to keep us in suspense
@@pckrichards7980reminds me of all the characters edited out of the No Way Home trailer. Or the opposite with all the Hulk scenes in the Infinity War trailer.
Oh god...the thing about the possibility of a second crash is, Agatha implied the people in the front seat just left. In the comics, we never see the Shepherd's. Is it possible that, being the terrible parents they are, they saw Tommy Shepherd died, and just fled the scene?
yeah this, In the comic we didn't ever see the shepherd family since the day one when Young Avengers met Tommy, who was the dad and mom, we only got to see Kaplan's family that real here.
With regards to the connection between the road and Billy, I think the viable most explainable answer is that the road is pulling ideas from Billy's mind. Because, from what we know so far Billy is the first person who conceived the thought of going on the road and we also know the road on some level is sentient (because of what of what Agatha said "the road changes for the coven" meaning the road thinks).... So I believe the road is tied to Billy's mind on a level, that is why he seems so aware of most details on the road as compared to the other witches...
My theory about Billy's image with him around candles evoking some type of portal is... they completed the road, that's him trying to get back to (maybe) help Agatha against Rio. I feel there will be a showdown between Agatha and Rio (as shown in the trailer) where Billy will try to help her. Maybe Rio wanna get Billy's soul back since she is... (you know who). Excited for the final 3 episodes 🔥🔥🔥
Oh i figured that was him trying to close the door to let’s say trap the Salem seven from getting through. They hinted before that the Salem Seven was able to get on the road because they left the door open, so this is them learning from their mistakes.
I agree. Billy is shown on the portal door with blue magic on his hands, like he is summoning his power. This makes me think it’s after the slumber party trial and if it’s at Agatha’s house, whether on the road or in real life, he could be in her basement. I think he is using the candles to give him power or help control it. He may have found his spell book that he lost. Something comes flying out of Agatha’s house in the boss battle and it looks like it came from the basement.
If the final boss battle thing with Rio and Agatha is still on the road, that would explain the green clouds behind Rio and the green hue to the atmosphere. That could also explain the outfits. Maybe when Agatha finally chooses like “Oh fine, I guess I have to fight her for my prize.” The road gives her purple outfit when she fought Wanda in WandaVison as a sense of her “battle outfit” in a way.
For me: Ep 7: Lilia's trial and her death 😢 Ep 8: Agatha and Rio Flashback Ep 9: Last Trial + Final battle (Agatha vs Rio/Death) PS: Billy being the 🖤 makes sense because he's a gothic boy hehe it was obvious 😅
I think Ep 8 will have the last trial in the futuristic room based on the font of "Episode 8" on the fake TV Guide cover and how they all match the genres of the trials. But it probably also has flashbacks!
2:40 the thing is we don’t know who the other driver was. They were driving on the opposite side of the road, prior to the crash. So I’m thinking Tommy’s body was in the truck. Further, a cop car was rushing afterwards. Can that imply that perhaps the driver was trying to evade the cop, which could explain why they were the ones driving on the opposite side of the road? Working theory is that a stupid teen stole a car and it was reported. Shortly afterwards the crash occurs, but from the truck’s perspective. Airbags deploy and Tommy’s vessel dies. Tommy’s soul inhabits it but goes to juvenile detention after recovering which would make it align with his character in the comics as he was a bad kid. Tommy has no idea what’s going on, and as Billy said he can feel him but he doesn’t know where he’s at. But of course being locked up, there’s no way hed expect him to be there
Good theories! Yeah, there's definitely something sneaky going on with that car crash. I wonder if we'll find out in this series or if we have to wait for VisionQuest?
I think we'll finally learn more on how Jen was bound in the earth trial. And if the morgue is the Earth trial then it gives more weight of Rio being you-know-who💀
We actually have the answer via lilia (who i am dying to see her trial as i fear she has overused sigils and thats why her memory and power is wonky) when jen saves teen lilia says 3 of swords. That is a heartbreak card. Trauma. Mental blockage. Jen is bound by her own thinking. “The doctor” told her she was useless and she believed. This is why she says she has no idea how he bound her without magic. Lilia also states “jen look what you did” boosting her confidence as she knows. Jen & lilia are such damn good characters. Jen is far more powerful & important than stated as a high priestess & lilia is far more knowledgable than stated
I think Billy subconsciously created the road. And I think Agatha and Rio created the idea of the witches road so Agatha could steal other witches power and Rio gets the bodies. This is why Agatha looks so surprised when the door appears and when they 1st get on the road.
I agree with this. I think all those shots of her gettign blasted are women she lured into a trap by telling them they were going to go on the Road. The idea that she is the "only survivor" of the Witches Road is just propaganda. I think this because it is what she did in episode 2 ("blast me you w/itches").That was all she intended to happen there, not for it to actually open.
I think the outfit change at the end happens when either Agatha gets her powers back or she fully taps into Alice’s powers. In either case, when she regains powers, her outfit will change into the final WV episode outfit.
I can’t help but think that Agatha’s trial was hers and Billy’s combined because they’d both be spirit. If he’d asked questions with the Ouija board would William have spoken? It seems to me that “familiar by thy side” casted him as an apprentice role. The trailer where they’re in the purple morgue room seems like a second spirit trial especially since they failed the first one and went up instead of down. Their watches beeped before Nicholas Scratch asked her to stop and the door only opened after that moment. I do think Billy was meant to be in their group but they still needed a green witch for the trial but since Agatha already knew who the green witch was supposed to be they didn’t need that name written. That’s my theory. Also I think the flashbacks are in that scene when they’re in the morgue and Agatha has her hands on Billy’s head
I feel like the end of the episode 8 will end like episode 5 did where it is revealed that Rio is death and then the beginning of the finale will be the Rio and Agatha backstory where we will see Rio in the green hood coming across Agatha after taking out one of her covens and then their relationship as Agatha takes out more and more covens so that Rio can take them and then back in the present we will have the final battle.
So glad you found the channel! Thanks for subbing and watching the vid. Yeah, I love reading all the comments and I like to give credit to the excellent theories people leave. I think it helps build a nice community where we all share ideas together!
My theory - I'm going to keep getting Down the Witches Road stuck in my head daily until this show ends, upon which I'll have to travel the road myself to get the one thing I desire - a way to stop humming this song 😭😭
I'm still wondering why Agatha was "bit by the True Crime bug" a few days before Billy broke into her home. I have a feeling he did indeed show up at her house before she caught him and tried to open the Road himself. Maybe he even looked for the Darkhold (explaining his blackened fingertips) or asked Agatha about either and that's what triggered her suspicion to affect the mental hex she was in. Otherwise, why was Agnes of Westview seemingly so Wanda-centric? Aa for the accident Agnes mentions, I still don't understand how that timeline would fit with a December date.
I agree...we need more info on that detective spell. Billy seemed surprised by it, so my guess is that Rio cast it. But I do like the idea that Billy showed up early and perhaps even looked for the Darkhold. And yeah, the timeline of the crash is confusing. It may be that it's referring to a more recent crash, as you suggest.
It could be that Agatha was "bit by the True Crime bug" at the end of Multiverse and Wanda's spell on her might have started to weaken, allowing Agatha to change her role and certain events in her narrative.
@@ParticleZon but her neighbor says that this change happened "a few days ago" and the events of Multiverse of Madness happened a year or so before Agatha All Along
@@ramihajyounesmontoya5194 If a powerful spell cast by the Scarlet Witch began degrading after the Multiverse events, it would take time to show. At least that's my theory and I'm sticking to it. ;-)
we all thought it was BEFORE they went on the road but after them not showing that happen in episode 6, what if its after the witches' road and his prize was the KNOWLEDGE of how to find tommy and that is the ritual he is doing: a locator spell.
21:29 This outfit is the same one she wears in the Wandavision final battle, and her fingers aren't dark yet so it must be a little before she has the Dakhold 🤔
With billy with the door of the Witch's Road what if he was closing it to stop the Selem Seven from following them to the real world. Rio is mad the Agatha betrays her and everyone fights Rio, stopping her from claiming the body of Billy since he broke the natural order of death and rebirth. Rio throughout the series wants either Agatha as her lover to kill the coven or take Billy to spare the coven.
@@AbitofEverything4U I think he gained more powers after the last two trials and told Agatha and Jen to run up ahead if Lilia did die in the air trial. Rio is still with the group but appears on the top of Agatha’s house waiting for Billy to catch up. Rio gives her offer to Agatha but refuses her, Agatha wants to be better and becomes Billy’s mentor. If Agatha dies, her spirit form can guide Billy in the future to Tommy. As reference to Agatha mentoring Wanda but I don’t think she would die cause I can see her interact with the Fantastic Four
Jen is the Evil Queen because that character used a poisen apple and poisen is the water witches' domian. Lilia is Glinda because bubbles float on air, and, like Glinda in the 1939 movie, Lilia has been accused of being passive and complacent while others were in danger. Billy is Maleficent because he is a shapeshifter but also an uninvited guest in Wiliam's dead body just like Maleficent was a unexpected guest at Aurora's baby shower.
What if......the life line divided means both kids are inside Billy Kaplan. Call back to WandaVision, Wanda always told them "take your brother with you"and it was meant to make us think it was just Billy Kaplan changing to Billy Maximoff but it's Billy and Tommy
I'm going to be so pissed if Lilia dies, I just hope that they give us answers about her story, the sigil and obviously her visions before she dies, but I hope that this doesn't happen 😩😢 The salem seven are cool but it would be like disappointing if they end in the next episode...I don't know I hope that they give them a good end at least I have so many questions about the witches road, I'm sure that they would answer why the road it's based on Billy, but that scene of him "opening" the Witches Road it's more confusing after the last episode, maybe he is closing it instead? Maybe the morgue it's when Agatha unlooks the memories that Billy had on the hex, like they have to do trials to open the door, I wonder what trial they have to do in that morgue I'm sure that the 9 episode are flashbacks for Agatha's and Rio history, I'm excited to see that too, but now I'm not sure how this is going to end, luckily we are so close to the end! Thank you so much for this videos ❤
In last trial Scene (which is Agatha's Basement, if you look at the floor) She could be resurrecting memories of Billy and William into one, this is the trial where all of them relive theirs strong memories but not Billy because he doesn't have them all, so they need to get it in order to complete the trial.
I think the final boss battle may be in the Road because Agatha screams that she wants her prize - presumably the prize she gets for surviving the Road. I would think she’d get the prize before leaving, not after. But they’ve never explained how that works (for instance, who gives the prize? Is it just inherently magical?), so who knows.
I agree with you...it feels so much more natural for Agatha to be wanting a prize while still on the road. So I kinda hope that's how it ends up happening.
I like the idea idea of Billy's tell of being influenced by movies/shows like how Wanda loved shows. I also like the idea of Teen accepting this merged identity of Billy and William as it could serve as a potential conflict between his original super family and new normal family. I wonder if we'll actually get closure on what happened to Tommy or if it'll be cliff hanger to be resolved in Vision Quest instead... like did Tommy's spirit end up in a different kid's body too or is his "rebirth" different from Billy's... Like maybe White Vision goes off in Vision Quest and creates synthezoid teenage kid (like he does in the comics) and Tommy's spirit ends up in that instead somehow? So we get one kid who's more closely related to their mom and one kid more closely related to the dad
Thank you for the shout out! What if... When Rio says 'that boy isn't yours,' she doesn't mean that he's not her son, but rather that he's not hers to protect, that he's already been promised to death (or a demon), and she's there to claim him? What if all those witches Agatha has killed were evil witches, and it's her responsibility to protect the innocent, and that is why she attacked Wanda, thinking her to be harming people? Her power is triggered by being attacked, so when Alice accidentally hit her with her magick, she could not control her magick's response. As for the question you asked, I think the road is taking inspiration from Billy's mind because he was the first to enter. If Agatha had been the first to enter, it would have been based off her mind.
I was very happy to give you a shout-out. You had some awesome feedback! And I like your idea that the road is pulling from Billy's mind since he entered first. That's a great suggestion. Love all your awesome theories!
I really hope that isn't the case, as I fear it could be viewed as redoing Wandavision. I really hope the road is real and just changes to the specific needs and interests of the coven that walks it. That said, I'm down for whatever they give us. I really love the show so far!
When Billy drives Agatha to round up the coven in episode 2 he has a necklace around his rear view mirror that Agatha puts on when they get to Lilia’s shop. That necklace looks very similar to the one Agatha put on Ralph B to control him but also where did it come from? It didn’t appear to be in Billy’s car when he came to Agatha’s this past week episode. Something to keep an eye on possibly….
Billy needs the road to find tommy’s soul. Jen & lilia will get their wish while on the road without even realizing. Alice already received hers and will be back. Agatha is am so unsure about and i love that. Rio is freaking death. Her weapon is a scythe without the handle. When teen is dying agatha looks to rio and says don’t. When rio finds agatha, agatha asks for more time, symbolizing bargaining with death. When they summon rio, she introduces herself as THE green witch. Sower & reaper. A green witch also deals with life and death not just plants itself
Interesting stuff about the car crash and airbags. Given that Agatha was talking about the crash as a recent thing (relating it maybe to the body that was found), and the car crash that “killed” William Kaplan actually happened 3 years before when the hex came down…I think Agatha is actually talking about Wanda’s supposed death, and the “air bags” were actually the Chaos magic automatically saving her somehow until she could return?
So, my original thought on the "detective" spell in episode 1 was that she was seeing lots of things that happened in the past. For instance, if the body is meant to represent the Scarlet Witch, that happened 2 years ago in MoM which is in 2024. And if the accident was meant to represent the one that killed William, that was 3 years ago. So I was just thinking she was seeing things from lots of different points in time. But after the airbags didn't deploy, I'm beginning to doubt that I was right about that. So it does seem there was a different crash, as you point out...and maybe it's even related to the Chaos magic!
New idea: in the last episode Billy opens the road again. The shot we see in the mid-season trailer is neither a flashback (I can’t see much of a place for more Billy-flashbacks) nor a glimpse of the finale, him closing the road with Agatha inside, as a sacrifice to trap Death (he’s in a different outfit, and eliminating Death is a lousy idea). He doesn’t get his prize at the end of the road this time, because he doesn’t really know what he wants, so he tries again, like Agatha did (?).

I wonder what Maleficent and Billy have in common? Both Lilia and Glinda have the gift of insight, Jen and Grimhilde make potions, and Agatha and Elphaba are misunderstood villains.
He did say, "I'm not that nice" - I think we're ALL in for a surprise with him, but I have no idea what it is. This show is FILLED with red herrings, and I think "Billy" will end up being the ultimate one! For a minute I thought maybe he's another entity pretending to be Wiccan, but no, last episode we see him waking up from the crash calling out for Tommy. We pretty much know he set this whole "The Road" thing in motion. The floorboards and pentagram leading to The Road is blue. For that matter, the actual Road and various trees/roots are blue. We know he can control people's minds. Like mother, like son? Is there some secondary hex happening? Did that chant in the "interrogation room" remove Wanda's hex, or just begin a new one? Why did we never get to see the red border of Wanda's hex that had been there for 3 years? Did they just leave that part out, or is the border blue, now? There's something there, and it's driving me nuts. Nuts, I tell you! lol.
I did not come up with something to answer your question but I want to point out that when they summoned Rio as the replacement green witch, the spell scene sort of parallels fairies giving gifts to baby in Maleficent/Sleeping Beauty. Also, the sleeping curse was to hit at 16 which is how old Billy's body is.
A lot of the Easter eggs in Billy’s room, along with some of the research he has done or can presumed to have done over his 3 years, are shown during the credits sequence for each episode, so I’m pretty sure that they are definitely the key to something that we don’t know about yet. Also, I can’t believe that Agatha All Along is almost over. I enjoyed this show way more than I thought I would and, while I will miss this show, I can’t wait to see how they’re going to finish it off.
Take notice how the aspect ratio always changes when a trial starts/ends. It does not happen in the last (Agathas) trial. The previous trials all lead down like in the song ”DOWN the witches road” but this time they exited up. The song also talks about ”tricks and trials” so my theory is that it was just a trick and not actually a trial.
I have a theory about who truly belongs to the coven: during the D23 presentation where the cast sang the song 'The Ballad of Witches Road,' everyone sang except for Sharon, who just kept 'bouncing' like in the series, and Rio, who was staring at the audience. Both only say the final line. However, Billy sings the whole song. It could mean that he is the green witch of the coven not Rio or Sharon.
It was mentioned that the green witch is essential to access the road, so maybe it's as simple as that... the road itself reflects the green witch to create the way the road appears to the coven and Billy IS the green witch.
Just taking note of Billy being instrumental for each task, he was the one who had the untainted blood in the first task and knew how to get the potion to a boil, and in the second he started the record and also played through a serious injury
Lilia is the Divination witch, the Air element. She controls the trial and her powers are related to her link to the Air. I hope they don't just kill her, but as her trial "pass" she hopefully gets her reward and goes to her peaceful place. I am so connected to Lilia as a fellow Italian who reads Tarot and has Strega witches in her ancestry. Love this character and show 💜
I agree...Lilia deserves a good ending to her story. Hopefully we'll see that happen during the trial. She's definitely become one of my favorite members of the coven!
I actually feel like Billy’s trial is next and it will be that one with the morgue/lab setting with just Agatha and him there. I also think that we’ll have a second plotlibe in that episode with Jen and Lilia getting back into the road. Then I can see the air trail with Lilia in the second to last episode when the whole coven is together
Maybe when she gets her powers back she gets her witch outfit like how wanda got her witch outfit when she accepted who she was- I think every witch has a official magical outfit like a “magical girl” does when they are in their power mode- like how Billy’s crown appeared for a brief second
I’m still curious about the car crash Agatha mentions in the first episode. She says the crash happened 1 hour after the time of death (supposedly of the body she found in the woods). If the body “represents” Wanda dying (starting to weaken the spell Agatha is in) then the crash is not the same as Billy’s crash because he crashed at the time the Hex went down, 3 years before. So I wonder if maybe someone else died? Also if the sigil protected Billy from being found by Wanda during Multiverse of Madness, what about Tommy? I doubt he would also have got a sigil too
Yeah, that car crash line is still confusing me. There's something I'm missing. And I'm with you on the Tommy situation...I can't wait to learn why he wasn't detected by Wanda.
I think it’s likely that Rio wisped Billy’s notebook during the Salem 7 chase to ensure that when they got to the Earth trial, Billy wouldn’t be able to cover for Rio during the trial, and that’s when Rio will basically force them to fail so she can collect Agatha and the body she has been waiting to collect for 3 years, Billy Kaplan.
Also, I am certain that there's a spirit or another soul inside Agatha's body besides her own. If you rewatch all the episodes, you can clearly see personality changes, and even changes in Agatha's voice. If I had to guess, I'd say it's Nicholas, and that's why she didn't suspect Billy was Nicholas---she knows where Nicholas is.
It's been stated that The Road Changes for the Coven. But how does it change for the coven, you might be asking? I think I have it. I think that the road changes based on the individual strength of each member, the stronger the magic the more the road is influenced and the weaker the magic the less the road is influenced. 7:13
That's a really interesting detail about the airbags being absent. But I personally don't think it's significant, because the notion that the two airbags deployed came from Agatha while she was still under the detective fantasy spell, so it's basically an untrustworthy detail. (Or feel free to correct me if there's a piece that I'm not remembering right.) Your reasoning for Billy's mind being the inspiration for the trials, as opposed to Billy creating the road himself, makes a lot of sense. But there's still a lot that points to Billy intentionally creating at least the trials, if not the entire road. Sure, like you said, there doesn't seem to be a reason why he would do that, as it doesn't seem to do anything to help him find Tommy, but there's still time for some new revelation that would explain that, if it turns out to be the case. The best mysteries are ones where the answers are hard to predict, but make total sense at the end.
Excellent feedback as always. Yeah, I'm definitely open to Billy creating the road and I agree, if that's the direction they go, I'm sure they'll give us a good reason for it.
Reviewing episode 4, I noticed that at minute 12:45 a demon mask appears, but if you look closely you can see that his eyes open for a moment and close just when Jen sees him, but it seems that someone is watching, It could be Alice's curse, but it could be someone else... I hope they answer that in the rest of the episodes.
I agree that Billy don't feel like a green witch. But when I pondered on it, he is literally connected to life, death and rebirth. William died in the car crash, his body mangled from the force of impact. And yet the doctor found no damage on it. Billy did not only posses a dead body, he also healed it from death to life.
What I found strange is that Billy seemed a bit confused about who he was when he possessed the body of William. Like unless I’m misremembering, Billy wasn’t sure that he was Billy maximoff when he was investigating west view, and he couldn’t fully remember anything about his past apart from Tommy, but that might be because his last thoughts were Tommy. Another thing to add to this is how he struggles with magic, wandavision Billy didn’t. What im getting at is, Lilia said something about Billy’s life being split in 2, so what if there’s a bit of William Kaplan still in there, and then this is why the sigil covers both of his names, as he is still both of them
I think that's a fantastic theory. It would be cool if William's soul is trapped in there as well and Agatha helps heal him into one person during the trial.
I think that Agatha try the road before to safe his son's life somehow, but Rio (death) was too soon and took it away too soon. So even tho she completed the road, she didnt had her wish accomplish. Maybe this is why she killed all of that coven, because she was attacked because she killed all of HER coven on the road. I believe that she absorved her mom's coven and "killed" her own coven on the road, as they died by those tests. That would also explain why she wished for the darkhold instead, like she lost her wish, so she try to get her son back by other means
The shot where Agatha is attacked by kids may be where she spared the Salem Seven. You see her cut off the absorption. So she can do so when she’s in control of herself, though not necessarily when she’s power starved and possessed by her mother’s hateful ghost.
You comment about Billy being the green witch would go against him being a Chaos witch like his mother. They brought in Mrs. Hart as the green witch, then Rio shows up to replace her... so clearly Billy was not necessary meant to be the green witch. Also recall that it was Lilia who put the sigil on Billy, thus, blocking her from seeing him... and when Agatha and Rio fight, Rio mentions her 'black heart'.
Right...it seems Billy is a member of the coven but perhaps isn't the green witch. That makes it really odd, however, that there is an earth trial that seems to center around him. Really curious to see how that trial goes down!
A couple of things to point out. Lilia’s trial seems to evoke the ten of swords tarot card which features ten swords in a man’s back and symbolizes an end to a difficult or challenging situation and the need to shed old beliefs, patterns, or relationships that no longer serve you. I think Lilia may be traveling her conscience through her past with each tarot card she reads/touches. So basically we’ll see her say the card’s name and be saying it in the trial and in the past when she gets there. I think there may also be some bleeding over as she travels backwards (maybe even mid sentence) which explains some of the weird stuff she says. I also find it very interesting that her challenge has her dressed as the only “good” witch and all the others are the villainous characters that form the stereotypes she was talking about in Jen’s trial. I think her role will be to clearly define what/who Rio is and maybe even be killed by her. After all isn’t the psychic who can predict death the natural enemy of death. It almost makes me think of the Final Destination movies. Like once Lilia is in control of her future predictions then that’s too much of a threat to Rio.
Those are fantastic predictions for next episode. Thanks for sharing all that. Loved reading it all! I think it's going to be a really powerful journey for Lilia. Can't wait!
I think I figured out why Agatha told Billy "are you sure?", when he said he won't hurt others. This whole road was made by him, like hex was made by Wanda. He indirectly killed both Sharon and Alice, and seems like Lilia too. Why was I so slow all this time lmao.
I hope that the road is just subconsciously influenced by Billy because “road changes for the coven” and he’s done so much to get them all to the road so it changes for him. I think he might have done something upstairs to help open the gate to it just to kick it all off, but it’s not actually all done by him
Nice to have clarification on the Green Witch situation. As for Billy and the road I think the road is pulling from Billy and not the other two options because while I don't think you mean "create the road" literally it also just doesn't sound right. The trailer shot I think we're seeing out of context and may not be him creating the road but only time will tell. And yeah I've been saying for a while those are Rio flashbacks and I think those are really needed because if Billy is the Green Witch then just who or what is Rio? We need information! I can believe Lilia possibly unaliving given Rio's dialogue of "the bodies are really piling up". I definitely think Rio is the final boss and it's off the road like they've completed the road and returned to the real world.
You’re forgetting, “the road changes for the coven” so maybe it actually pulls ideas from Billy bc he’s the only one showing he doesn’t want the coven to die but stick together
You don’t NEED a green witch to go on the road you just need a group of 5 witches. Though it is probably recommended that you have all those types of witches because the trials are about those crafts. Lilia was writing a coven list not a road list
I also like the option that the road is pulling ideas from Billy's mind the best. In fact, I feel like there might be some almost prophetic connection between the road and Wiccan. It could even be connected to why Lilia put the sigil on him. It could be interpreted as her making sure the events of the Multiverse of Madness happen: Wanda dies, the Darkhold is destroyed etc. But maybe Lilia put the sigil to ensure that Billy/future Wiccan ends up on the road alone (and by that, I mean "without Wanda"). I mean, Agatha told us about the prophecy of the Scarlett Witch, right? And while she didn't mention Wiccan, we saw his figure at Wundagore. So, it makes sense there's some prophecy involving Wiccan, too. Maybe Wiccan and the road are connected by fate or something like that? As for Billy creating the entrance at the beginning, I doubt it, mostly because we saw that part of the story from his point of view already. It'd be weird if they were now like: "Oh, we still hid one thing from you". I believe we might see those events one more time, but from Rio's point of view. Either way, my guess is that Billy in that scene is in the basement of Agatha's house created by the road during the finale. Perhaps he tries to create a way of escape? Also, it makes more sense for him to be so "powered up" only by the end.
Excellent feedback! Yeah, I agree, I'm in favor of the road pulling ideas from Billy, rather than him being the creator of the road. And that's a good suggestion that the image of Billy over the portal is at the end of the series rather than the beginning. Very cool!
Here's my thoughts about Lilia's death. In Episode 4, she saw paintings and one of them is hanged dressed in white that could possibly her meeting her end in the Air Trial.
I think the Road is pulling it from Billy's subconsciousness, and I have a few reason why. 1) Rio, when she got summoned, looks like she has never been to the Road. As Lady Death and The Green Witch, we can assume that she has definitely been there before. Perhaps she has never been to THIS version of the Road, as it changes for the coven and no two Roads are ever alike. 2) Wether or not Agatha knows about the Road itself changing (and not only the Trials), she definitely HAS been to the Road before. She must have noticed it not being the same as her's. Maybe she picked up on the connection to the Wizard of Oz and other movie- and tv-references, putting two and two together and noticing the "Maximoff-tell". If this is true, I'm pretty sure is would be your option 1, The Road pulling it from his subconsciousness, as we've seen it do the same with the other witches of the coven (Jen's house that could be her clientele's, Alice's reference to her mom). Also, in the mid-season trailer, we see the coven floating. What if they are not floating, but the Tower is reversing (as the swords seem to reference the Three of Sword's card and the table being the same one as the Queen of Cups' card), and all the random cards Lilia has been yelling throughout the show, is her having visions of the obstacles during her challenge? Anyway, great video! Love your content.
Excellent feedback. I love both of your ideas. I really do think the road is just pulling ideas from the coven's minds, with Billy's ideas being used the most. And I love the idea of the tarot card "reversing" and thus flipping the room upside down. That's a very cool theory!
Nicely done! About the morgue: there is a very clear picture of Jen in the morgue on IMDB. I think she doesn’t die, but the road spits her up in the real world. Also, I’m thinking about Billy throwing everyone in the mud: he knew it would not kill them, but he also wanted them gone, because he thinks he doesn’t need them now (he said that to Agatha). What’s up with that?
I subscribed a while ago. Thank you so much for the warnings and secondary videos for spoilers. Love your channel and your fans and their theories 👏👏💪💪💐💐💯‼️
Thanks so much for being a subscriber. And yeah, I've heard from several people who like to avoid the trailers, so I will be sure to either discuss them in separate videos or will segment the vides like this one. Really appreciate your awesome feedback!
I have a feeling that all the scenes we see from the trailers that are about Agatha past or maybe some other Billy moments will happen during that more trial. It seems like whatever Agatha is doing is impacting Billy‘s brain so maybe they are going back through memories being forced to relive all of their encounters with Death? After all, they have both cheated Death numerous times and for the trial to be in a morgue I feel like that would fit the theme.
Rio Is essentially an entity literally.. she’s damn near collecting, and waiting. Not sure If there Is anyway to find Tommy since he’s a speedster, will find out the last episode.. outside of that this seems like it’s leading to a “deal with the devil”
1. I was genuinely so pleased to see that it was Lillia that cast the sigil. All along, especially after Agatha's casual mention that the witch who casts the sigil won't remember his name either, I assumed it would be a bigger character: Agatha, Rio, Mephisto, or even Billy himself. But to see that it was Lillia and she was (I believe) trying to keep him safe, that was such a touching moment for me. In fact, the entire palm reading scene between them was a favorite of mine. I really liked that she seemed to know William was going to die, so she gave him a compliment ("good egg") and told him to live in the now because that's all we have... It was just such a lovely moment between them and showed Lillia as a loving, kind, and caring person, despite her crotchety and often aloof nature in the previous episodes. I personally have always felt more of a connection to the "side" characters (not sure if that's the right phrase, but basically not Billy, Agatha, or Rio). While those three are undeniably great characters portrayed by phenomenal actors, I was rooting more for the other three (and even Mrs. Hart RIP). I have a theory that Lillia's trial will involve her going back in time to put all these pieces together and make the story come to it's conclusion through the random, odd moments we've seen so far. I could be totally missing the mark with that, perhaps it's my wishful thinking to have her be more prominent in the show, but we haven't had her trial yet and each tarot reading felt important as well as her random outbursts. "Alice, don't!"Try to save Agatha!"Which is it? Am I wispy, or am I kooky?" etc. I truly hope Alice, Jen, and Lillia aren't dead/gone from the road, or I feel like the show will lose a lot of its color from here on out. But I guess we'll just have to wait and see! 2. Wait...so are Lillia and Jen actually dead??? That confused me a ton. Weird if true and very anticlimactic for them.
I agree with everything you said about Lilia. She's an awesome character and it's been great to see her role become even more important due to the sigil. Hope her trial really lets her shine!
Mmm... something different, new videos like MCU, DC, and Star Wars (my friend be ready for skeleton crew this Dec) too. Speaking of everything, it's been 3 months since Star Wars: The Acolyte. Also, I am so excited about Star Wars returning to movie theater!
Before the show started a lot of people where sceptical about the show but now the show has nearly finished I’d say this is one of the best shows in phase 5 along with Loki Season 2 and X-Men 97
I think that it is intentional, unlike the hex. If I recall correctly, one of the Billy's powers down the road, pun intended, is speaking things he imagines into existence (if im mistaken pls correct me). He may want the road to be real, because he has learned about it so far, and he at this point REALLY did want to find Tommy. And if the Road is supposed to grant wish you want, then he can will it so. After all, he confessed he has some knowledge, and let's not pretend he didn't have the power.
Good theory! Yeah, there is no doubt that Billy had alot to do with the creation of the road. I can't wait to see how everyone responds when they discover what his role was!
Hello. Your coverage always makes me happy. Thank you so much for taking the time to work so hard on these as always. 🎉 And congrats on the recent sub milestone. As for theories. I think Billy needs to have a strong emotion to access his energy. So wether he intentionally created the entrance to the road or not, he'd have to be really in his feelings to pull off such a massive enchantment. I think the real question is more like, is this the road or have they been in Billy's mind the whole time? Like, these trials feel like what Billy thinks the trials should be. He is the one with the spell book. Who knows how many of their magical processes he's studied and lied about not knowing. He knows the word hexbessen but has to be taught the ceremony to get one? In a way he's getting a practical experience first hand from magical witches, and to an extent by befriending them, taking their knowledge and magic for his own. He's doing what Agatha does without shortcuts, though I still think putting them in this predicament is harmful/fatal. That's why Agatha's right about maximoffs being dramatic, cause he could have just studied under someone had he not been protected from other witches by Lillia. My other theory is that Agatha is going to pull a Charles Xavier in the circular sterile asylum looking room. She's going to try to get into billy's head like she did with Wanda. However, billy might pull an uno reverse and take her through all the covens she's stolen from and her initial meeting with Rio. That will likely lead into a climactic battle where, if Rio is who people suspect, she will come to claim the child that escaped her three years ago. The child she actually was in the neighborhood looking for, when the darkhold was destroyed and she finally spotted Agatha. Then when she shows up later she confirms he's not Nicholas scratch but that doesn't mean she knows it's him. Now that the sigil is broken things might change. Thank you again for reading all these comments. It's a lot, I know. But I think your one of the most dedicated people in the field and I'm happy to be part of this, and to contribute in anyway I can. Edit: oh uhm. With the earth trial. A lot of time earth is represented by stones and metals. It makes sense in a way that the earth trials in a big metal box, that the lights are florescent bulbed, that it's a morgue. After all, bodies get buried. The physical material world is often associated with the earth element and a cadaver is our physical self without the other elements. Blood coagulates into solids, there are no emotional sensations. There's no air coming into the lungs, and no oxygen going to our thinking mind. Our body loses it's homeostasis, and the fire of our passion is extinguished. The spirit element Agatha represents is obvious, a cadaver is a body sans soul. So yeah, earths a morgue. Makes sense.
Awesome theories. I think your ideas about Billy and how he's tied to the road make sense. And I love your thoughts on the earth trial. I'm really looking forward to that one. This series has been so amazing and it's made it all the more fun and enjoyable to read all the incredible theories people leave in the comments. It's like having a huge brainstorming session with all your comic loving friends!

The traits for Wiccan aka billy aka William aka Wanda’s son are his traits
Family- who is he searching for his brother even though his spirit is in a new body he still has that connection to his brother and to Wanda.
Wisdom- who was the one giving out the answers to every trial so far billy was it was always him finding out things before anyone else he also knew a lot of about magic even though it was only analog magick aka written spells and the clue about the hexenbeson to create the flying brooks this so screams wisdom-
Wealth- I don’t think they mean money wealth I think it means wealth of power billy may not know how to control his magic yet just like Wanda she went through the same thing but make no mistake just like his mother wanda billy is extremely powerful without even trying to be so he’s wealthy in power and he’s wealthy in love he may
Not have met them again yet but his mother wanda and brother Tommy loves him dearly that’s another reason he’s on the road trying to find his family Tommy first but we all know then Wanda
Strength- he is not only powerful of body but also powerful in mind even though for the last 3 yrs he’s had it very hard he’s had to live as William Kaplan for all this time and give love and support to this body’s parents and still on the side searching up magic and making connections and trying to figure out who he truly was
Fertility/
1. Reality-Warping Powers: Wiccan’s abilities allow him to alter reality on a fundamental level. This could include influencing or enhancing fertility. He might be able to help someone conceive or even reverse infertility by altering physical or magical conditions.
2. Mythological and Symbolic Connections: In mythology, magic and fertility are often interconnected. Wiccan’s powers, which are partly derived from chaos magic like his mother Wanda Maximoff (Scarlet Witch), could symbolically be linked to creation, growth, and new life. Fertility is also tied to the concept of creation, a fitting parallel to his ability to create and manipulate reality.
3. Lineage and Heritage: Billy is the son of the Scarlet Witch, whose own powers have often been tied to concepts of creation, chaos, and the natural cycles of life. His magical heritage might mean that his abilities have a natural affinity toward life-giving or generative aspects.
4. Magical Practices: Fertility rituals and spells are a significant part of many magical traditions. As Wiccan develops his skills, he might explore or naturally tap into these areas, particularly if his reality-warping abilities allow him to influence biological processes.
So yes when we think green witch we think green powers and Billy’s powers are blue
But I think Rio like she says in episode 3 she’s the original green witch and her voice went demonic I think this is true that she was in fact the original green witch but she was corrupted either before or after she maybe became death and I think when that happened it kind of changed what it means to be a green witch but again Billy’s powers are on a entirely different level then there’s and his magic like his moms Wanda’s is very flexible and different so unlike there’s his can change and formulate to what he wants emotionally
I do believe the road is real but I think the road that there on is conjured up and connected to the spirit world and I think the road is being warped around billy just like Wanda as his powers come from her
His magic works without him even having to do anything all he has to do is think a thought and remember he also like his mother can warp reality just like Wanda so I think that’s what’s happening I believe that because he’s searching for Tommy on the road and we’ve already seen and heard the spirit of evenora harkness Agatha’s mother and her son Nicholas
I believe because Tommy does not know how to use or tap into the magic imbued inside him from his mom Wanda he wasn’t able to do the same thing as billy meaning I think billy will find Tommy’s soul in the spirit world which is apart of the road and he will have to find a body or create a body to place Tommy’s spirit into 🥰
And then they’ll search for mommy dearest aka Wanda 🥰🥰
Fyi: in the new marvel promo trailer for episode 7 released by marvel studios a couple of days ago, you can see agatha towards the end of the trailer, during the end of the earth 🌎 trial part of it, floating in the air, all cut ✂️ up, wearing the same cloths she has on now, the sky around her is all dark, she's smiling 😃, and most inportantly she's absorbing purple power!!
Pretty sure this confirms she survives the road, weather or not she survives billy an rio afterwards is another question. 🤔
Oh, you gotta pause it to see the image cause it keeps flashing on an off the screen. Like flashes of light.
Pay attention you'll see 👀 it.
Hope that helps 🙏
@@Splatz007 Very cool! Thanks for pointing that out. Can't wait to see these final episodes!
@AbitofEverything4U yup. I think this means the last shot of series, last scene we the audience get to see, is rio walking away from the house 🏠 as it's blowing up, all decked out in her costume, the scene seen, in the trailer.
An the audience is left to speculate if billy survived the cave in or not from the earth trial.
Kinda cool both billy an wanda get crushed by rock an dirt, an how marvel leaves it to us, to wonder, what's next?? 🤔
Next episode, air trial, wizard of oz castle.
Last 2 episodes, take place in the basement of the house 🏠, earth trial, episode 8, and outside the house 🏠, agathas past revealed flash backs, an her fight with Rio, and her shouting I want my prize, an then she gets it, then rio walks away..
Pretty sure she's attempting to offer billy up to rio in return for her prize in the end, by capturing him in the cave in too..
Should make for a good ending..
Can't wait to see how billy escapes the cave in, an the aftermath of everything between the 3 of them, an how it all plays out.
Not to mention, how both billy an wanda got caved in on too. Very cool concept an idea.
Agatha said "airbags" inside her spell - the crash happened in real life. It's like Billy getting hit by the car vs just getting hit by the door.
I second this! Was going to say this exact thing. A lot of the things Agatha thought happened didn't actually and were exaggerated for the illusion
Good point...that could indeed explain it!
@@CanuckJim agreed. A deployed airbag is symbolic for safety/survival.
Or post-credits going to have some kid waking up in the back of an extended cab truck going "Billy!"
And the accident was three years ago.
Here's my thoughts ---and they are long. Sorry about that.
I think Jennifer Kale and Lilia Calderu haven't risen from the mud because they fell through ground and into Westview's failed underground public transit system, mentioned by Sharon Davis in episode 3. There is a modern light fixture in the frame to the left of Lilia and Jen, I think this underground system was still under construction. My speculation is they follow the transit system, go through a utility door and right into Lilia's trial where they are reunited with Agatha and Billy. This episode will probably start the mystery of what exactly is the origin of this particular witches' road.
Up until now, the Salem Seven have not been able to enter into a witches' trial. I think Billy losing his spell book in episode 5 was done so the Salem Seven can find it on the road and use it to break whatever seal there is to a trial. That's probably how they are able to get into Lilia's trial. It true, it's curious how important Billy is for the witches to continue their progress down the road and through the trials.
Now that we know Rio isn't a coven member and necessary for the trials, we probably won't see much of her until her big reveal. That could potentially be at the end of Lilia's trial if a witch dies. Other than that, Rio could be on the witches' road just to create mischief for Agatha and potentially Billy on the way to the Earth trial and the big fight in Westview.
Lilia has been evoking Tarot cards all through the series, the only three cards left are the Two of Cups (Lilia's card), The Magician (Billy's card?) and Death (Rio's card). I believe each of these cards will have major revelations, The Magician card might reference a future reveal with Billy but the last card, Death, probably will lead to one of series big reveals and possibly the last word spoken by a witch. As this could be Lilia's last episode, I expect a lot of flashbacks connecting her outbursts and the mystery to why she put the sigil on Billy.
The sigil worked for both William Kaplan & Billy Maximoff. My speculation is it was designed to protect Billy's & William's identity from Agatha (also to hide William Kaplan's body from Death) so she could act as a guide down the 'witches' road' (Spirit as our guide). The end of the road potentially brings Billy's/William's two halves into one. If Agatha is a spirit witch, according to her trial, perhaps she can tap William Kaplan spiritually in the morgue to merge his soul with Billy's?
Jac Shaeffer references Joe Locke's character as Billy Kaplan but that name is not referenced in the show yet. William Kaplan is never referenced as Billy despite that being a nickname. It's possible the Earth trial is about integrating Billy's two halves -BILLY Maximoff & William KAPLAN, with the memories of their previous lives which creates a merged BILLY KAPLAN. Perhaps the timer above them is counting down to Westview's public transit system concrete ceiling, err, I mean the witches' road, comes crashing down upon them. Agatha and Billy escape through the exit. Jennifer Kale pulls herself through the open earth into Westview.
I believe the end of the road is what Lilia predicted -the consolidation of Billy Kaplan. The only way to save the 'good egg' who was standing in front of her at his bar mitzvah. The end of the road wasn't about finding Tommy Maximoff although there could be clues to his whereabouts but instead BILLY Maximoff/William KAPLAN merging into Billy Kaplan, i.e. Wiccan. Finding Tommy was only Billy's motivation to take the journey. The road gives you what you need not what you want. I think when Billy Kaplan returns home it will be a true reunion with his parents and yes, Greg the dog will run right up to him recognizing him as a part of the Kaplan family.
Agatha completes the witch's road also, but what she wants ('the prize') is for her son, Nicholas Scratch to return to her. If Billy is injured or considered dead (akin to the 'body by the creek') in a final fight with Rio (Death), I believe the feet being pulled out of frame by vines are Billy's. Agatha might beg Rio to put Nicholas into Billy Kaplan's body. Of course, this could create a conflict because I believe Death has been trying to collect William Kaplan's body for herself. This may cause Agatha and Rio to fight each other. Perhaps Agatha realizes during the fight that what she wants isn't what she needs -and what she needs is to be a mother again.
The director of episode 9 said at the premiere, the episode had a music video in it. I speculate that means a video like Agatha All Along' in WandaVision episode 7. Perhaps Wiccan's full transformation is done in a music video. I don't know if he can defeat Death, but the fight may end in a stalemate. Because William Kaplan merged with Billy Maximoff in the body she was trying to take, Death may no longer have claim over it.
Lastly, what Billy Kaplan is wearing while standing upon the pentagram of blue light isn't something we've seen him wear before. He's not wearing a hoodie but a light blue jacket and his shirt I believe has horizonal white and blue stripes. Can't make out any eyeliner but he does have black fingernails. He looks cleaned up. This has to be Billy Kaplan after the fight with Rio. I don't have any other context for that scene except he looks to be drawing his magic from the entrance of the witch's road.
@@larkin2662 great theories. I doubt that the spell book has anything to do with the salem seven though since we can see agatha stealing it when they enter the ”trial” (the song talks about tricks and trials and this trial is very different from the others. The aspect ratio does not change like previously and they exit up the witches road and not down the witches road like the sing says)
But the tower reversed is Billy card I thought
@@mirzu42wait where did you see her steal it
@@ILoveJapan28A if you watch frame by frame when they enter the ”trial” you can see she bumps into Billy. Technically you dont see her steal it but it is implied.
Absolutely hate all this stuff about merging souls, bodies, characters. How is this gonna work? Are they gonna have one conscience for two? Like, why? People was saying about Nicholas before. Maybe we should put in Nicholas' soul too? "Billy 3in1" Why do we need this vinegret? Just so Greg can recognize William? To appease his parents? That was a good adaptation: William's body with Billy's soul. William's soul died, Billy took his place.
I think Billy isn’t in the final boss battle with Rio cuz he’s closing the door to the witches road which traps Agatha and Rio and Agatha said to do it, possibly sacrificing herself and keep Rio from killing Billy. Which Rio maybe wanted to do the entire time.
I like this!
Oh, now that's a very cool idea. I love it!
Billie being the green witch doesn’t necessarily have to pertain to him being an earth witch but green as in new. He is the youngest member of the coven and newest to the craft itself.
Good point!
Ooh that's such a great insight!
I like that!
Bingo I did not see that one but look at his left earing after the sidual is broken like the start of this vid. It is a Black Hear earing I dont remeber seeing before. Also that would mean Billy would not have heard the last name in the coven correctly because of the sidual
Yep, it all really fits well!
I think with her being a spirit witch Agatha will learn she can do more than absorb power. She asked for them to teach her to control it but they condemned her as evil. I think, either through Billy or the Road, she will discover she can also give life and that will be how Alice is brought back.
That's a cool theory. It would be very healing for Agatha if she could use her powers to bring Alice back.
Super appreciate you separating out trailer spoilers! Allows me to enjoy your breakdowns and theories but also still go into each episode blind.
Very happy to do it. I have heard from several people that also like to avoid the trailers, so you are in good company!
Something that hasn't been addressed is many people dont think Agatha has done the road before. Why do in universe people believe she did. What would she have gotten at the end. Not the Darkhold. Not her drain.
I agree...it seems the coven believes Agatha, even though it seems that Agatha is making things up as she goes along. I suspect we'll get an answer to this mystery in the final few episodes, but my suspicion is that she hasn't been on the road before.
If you look really hard at the shot of Billy in the pentagram he is wearing a striped white shirt which is interesting because that is what Billy Kaplan's wardrobe was in the flashbacks so i think its after his trail and the two have merged.
That’s a good theory… Perhaps he’s actually trying to close the road. Or maybe reopen it to rescue Agatha?
Since agatha says "I want my prize!" And rio says "all roads lead to me", I'm inclined to believe the fight with Rio is at the end of the road but then again that raises the question of where Billy is during that scene 🤔
Yeah, I'm very worried about Billy not being in that scene!
I’m willing to bet that they don’t want to show it because it means revealing Agatha’s fate/there is more stuff they haven’t revealed with him and Rio - they want to keep us in suspense
@@pckrichards7980reminds me of all the characters edited out of the No Way Home trailer. Or the opposite with all the Hulk scenes in the Infinity War trailer.
@@AbitofEverything4UI really think Rio is there for Billy not Agatha.
Right...that makes sense that Rio would be after Billy!
Oh god...the thing about the possibility of a second crash is, Agatha implied the people in the front seat just left. In the comics, we never see the Shepherd's. Is it possible that, being the terrible parents they are, they saw Tommy Shepherd died, and just fled the scene?
I think the mystery of the second crash can’t be solved until we know definitively WHO/WHAT WAS THAT BODY
Yeah, that would be so wild if it had something to do with Tommy!
yeah this, In the comic we didn't ever see the shepherd family since the day one when Young Avengers met Tommy, who was the dad and mom, we only got to see Kaplan's family that real here.
Could be in the other car that was on the wrong side of the road and caused the Kaplans to swerve off the road.
Right...that other car could indeed be the Shepherd family.
With regards to the connection between the road and Billy, I think the viable most explainable answer is that the road is pulling ideas from Billy's mind. Because, from what we know so far Billy is the first person who conceived the thought of going on the road and we also know the road on some level is sentient (because of what of what Agatha said "the road changes for the coven" meaning the road thinks).... So I believe the road is tied to Billy's mind on a level, that is why he seems so aware of most details on the road as compared to the other witches...
I would find it so disappointing if The Witches’ Road is Billy’s version of the HEX, so I definitely prefer your theory.
Well said...I much prefer the idea that the road is sentient and is pulling from Billy's mind. I really don't want him to be the one that created it.
My theory about Billy's image with him around candles evoking some type of portal is... they completed the road, that's him trying to get back to (maybe) help Agatha against Rio. I feel there will be a showdown between Agatha and Rio (as shown in the trailer) where Billy will try to help her. Maybe Rio wanna get Billy's soul back since she is... (you know who). Excited for the final 3 episodes 🔥🔥🔥
Oh, now that's a cool idea. I hadn't considered that Billy was trying to re-open the door to the road. Nice call!
Oh i figured that was him trying to close the door to let’s say trap the Salem seven from getting through. They hinted before that the Salem Seven was able to get on the road because they left the door open, so this is them learning from their mistakes.
I agree. Billy is shown on the portal door with blue magic on his hands, like he is summoning his power. This makes me think it’s after the slumber party trial and if it’s at Agatha’s house, whether on the road or in real life, he could be in her basement. I think he is using the candles to give him power or help control it. He may have found his spell book that he lost. Something comes flying out of Agatha’s house in the boss battle and it looks like it came from the basement.
Yeah that's what I thought
Or, that is Billy using his newly strengthened magic to locate Tommy's whereabouts. Since he wears a clean change of clothes.
If the final boss battle thing with Rio and Agatha is still on the road, that would explain the green clouds behind Rio and the green hue to the atmosphere. That could also explain the outfits. Maybe when Agatha finally chooses like “Oh fine, I guess I have to fight her for my prize.” The road gives her purple outfit when she fought Wanda in WandaVison as a sense of her “battle outfit” in a way.
Good point... that final boss battle being on the road would indeed explain the green skies. Love that!
@@AbitofEverything4U Mhm but all these scenes still confuses me hah. Can’t wait for the answers from the future episodes
💯
For me:
Ep 7: Lilia's trial and her death 😢
Ep 8: Agatha and Rio Flashback
Ep 9: Last Trial + Final battle (Agatha vs Rio/Death)
PS: Billy being the 🖤 makes sense because he's a gothic boy hehe it was obvious 😅
I think that order works well for the final episodes. Can't wait to see how this show ends. Been soooo good up to this point!
I think Ep 8 will have the last trial in the futuristic room based on the font of "Episode 8" on the fake TV Guide cover and how they all match the genres of the trials. But it probably also has flashbacks!
I'm gonna miss her sm
Yeah, will be sad to lose Lilia!
2:40 the thing is we don’t know who the other driver was. They were driving on the opposite side of the road, prior to the crash. So I’m thinking Tommy’s body was in the truck. Further, a cop car was rushing afterwards. Can that imply that perhaps the driver was trying to evade the cop, which could explain why they were the ones driving on the opposite side of the road?
Working theory is that a stupid teen stole a car and it was reported. Shortly afterwards the crash occurs, but from the truck’s perspective. Airbags deploy and Tommy’s vessel dies. Tommy’s soul inhabits it but goes to juvenile detention after recovering which would make it align with his character in the comics as he was a bad kid. Tommy has no idea what’s going on, and as Billy said he can feel him but he doesn’t know where he’s at. But of course being locked up, there’s no way hed expect him to be there
Couldn't it just be Bohner being chased by LE and being distracted and reckless? 🤔
Good theories! Yeah, there's definitely something sneaky going on with that car crash. I wonder if we'll find out in this series or if we have to wait for VisionQuest?
I think we'll finally learn more on how Jen was bound in the earth trial. And if the morgue is the Earth trial then it gives more weight of Rio being you-know-who💀
Good point about Rio...I hadn't considered that!
We actually have the answer via lilia (who i am dying to see her trial as i fear she has overused sigils and thats why her memory and power is wonky) when jen saves teen lilia says 3 of swords. That is a heartbreak card. Trauma. Mental blockage. Jen is bound by her own thinking. “The doctor” told her she was useless and she believed. This is why she says she has no idea how he bound her without magic. Lilia also states “jen look what you did” boosting her confidence as she knows. Jen & lilia are such damn good characters. Jen is far more powerful & important than stated as a high priestess & lilia is far more knowledgable than stated
Excellent points!
I think Billy subconsciously created the road. And I think Agatha and Rio created the idea of the witches road so Agatha could steal other witches power and Rio gets the bodies. This is why Agatha looks so surprised when the door appears and when they 1st get on the road.
Oh, now that's a very clever theory. Nicely done!
I agree with this. I think all those shots of her gettign blasted are women she lured into a trap by telling them they were going to go on the Road. The idea that she is the "only survivor" of the Witches Road is just propaganda. I think this because it is what she did in episode 2 ("blast me you w/itches").That was all she intended to happen there, not for it to actually open.
@@emilyk5168 that’s exactly the same thing I’m thinking 💯💯
🔥🔥🔥
I think the outfit change at the end happens when either Agatha gets her powers back or she fully taps into Alice’s powers. In either case, when she regains powers, her outfit will change into the final WV episode outfit.
Yes, i think so too
That would make alot of sense. Nice call!
I can’t help but think that Agatha’s trial was hers and Billy’s combined because they’d both be spirit. If he’d asked questions with the Ouija board would William have spoken? It seems to me that “familiar by thy side” casted him as an apprentice role. The trailer where they’re in the purple morgue room seems like a second spirit trial especially since they failed the first one and went up instead of down. Their watches beeped before Nicholas Scratch asked her to stop and the door only opened after that moment. I do think Billy was meant to be in their group but they still needed a green witch for the trial but since Agatha already knew who the green witch was supposed to be they didn’t need that name written. That’s my theory.
Also I think the flashbacks are in that scene when they’re in the morgue and Agatha has her hands on Billy’s head
Excellent theories...can't wait to see how this all plays out in the last 3 episodes!
Proud to now be a member
Keep up the good work 👍
Thanks so much for your awesome support. Really appreciate it!!!
I feel like the end of the episode 8 will end like episode 5 did where it is revealed that Rio is death and then the beginning of the finale will be the Rio and Agatha backstory where we will see Rio in the green hood coming across Agatha after taking out one of her covens and then their relationship as Agatha takes out more and more covens so that Rio can take them and then back in the present we will have the final battle.
I like that theory...yeah, a flashback right before they duke it out makes alot of sense!
Newly subbed. So glad I found your channel. Great, well-thought out theories. I love that you give credit to where the ideas you talk about came from.
So glad you found the channel! Thanks for subbing and watching the vid. Yeah, I love reading all the comments and I like to give credit to the excellent theories people leave. I think it helps build a nice community where we all share ideas together!
My theory - I'm going to keep getting Down the Witches Road stuck in my head daily until this show ends, upon which I'll have to travel the road myself to get the one thing I desire - a way to stop humming this song 😭😭
ikr? I was humming it for like 30 minutes earlier today!
Ay! Your posts are the highlight of my day 💜
Aw, thanks. I really appreciate that!
@@AbitofEverything4U No problem!
😊
I'm still wondering why Agatha was "bit by the True Crime bug" a few days before Billy broke into her home. I have a feeling he did indeed show up at her house before she caught him and tried to open the Road himself. Maybe he even looked for the Darkhold (explaining his blackened fingertips) or asked Agatha about either and that's what triggered her suspicion to affect the mental hex she was in. Otherwise, why was Agnes of Westview seemingly so Wanda-centric?
Aa for the accident Agnes mentions, I still don't understand how that timeline would fit with a December date.
I agree...we need more info on that detective spell. Billy seemed surprised by it, so my guess is that Rio cast it. But I do like the idea that Billy showed up early and perhaps even looked for the Darkhold. And yeah, the timeline of the crash is confusing. It may be that it's referring to a more recent crash, as you suggest.
It could be that Agatha was "bit by the True Crime bug" at the end of Multiverse and Wanda's spell on her might have started to weaken, allowing Agatha to change her role and certain events in her narrative.
@@ParticleZon but her neighbor says that this change happened "a few days ago" and the events of Multiverse of Madness happened a year or so before Agatha All Along
@@ramihajyounesmontoya5194 If a powerful spell cast by the Scarlet Witch began degrading after the Multiverse events, it would take time to show. At least that's my theory and I'm sticking to it. ;-)
I really do hope we get abit more info on what was going on with that spell!
we all thought it was BEFORE they went on the road but after them not showing that happen in episode 6, what if its after the witches' road and his prize was the KNOWLEDGE of how to find tommy and that is the ritual he is doing: a locator spell.
Oh, now that's a cool idea. Love it!
21:29 This outfit is the same one she wears in the Wandavision final battle, and her fingers aren't dark yet so it must be a little before she has the Dakhold 🤔
Excellent points!
With billy with the door of the Witch's Road what if he was closing it to stop the Selem Seven from following them to the real world. Rio is mad the Agatha betrays her and everyone fights Rio, stopping her from claiming the body of Billy since he broke the natural order of death and rebirth. Rio throughout the series wants either Agatha as her lover to kill the coven or take Billy to spare the coven.
Good theory! Okay, that would make alot of sense for him to be closing the door!
@@AbitofEverything4U I think he gained more powers after the last two trials and told Agatha and Jen to run up ahead if Lilia did die in the air trial. Rio is still with the group but appears on the top of Agatha’s house waiting for Billy to catch up. Rio gives her offer to Agatha but refuses her, Agatha wants to be better and becomes Billy’s mentor. If Agatha dies, her spirit form can guide Billy in the future to Tommy. As reference to Agatha mentoring Wanda but I don’t think she would die cause I can see her interact with the Fantastic Four
Man, this makes me all the more excited for those final episodes!
Jen is the Evil Queen because that character used a poisen apple and poisen is the water witches' domian.
Lilia is Glinda because bubbles float on air, and, like Glinda in the 1939 movie, Lilia has been accused of being passive and complacent while others were in danger.
Billy is Maleficent because he is a shapeshifter but also an uninvited guest in Wiliam's dead body just like Maleficent was a unexpected guest at Aurora's baby shower.
Awesome analysis. Love it!
What if......the life line divided means both kids are inside Billy Kaplan. Call back to WandaVision, Wanda always told them "take your brother with you"and it was meant to make us think it was just Billy Kaplan changing to Billy Maximoff but it's Billy and Tommy
Very cool theory!
I'm going to be so pissed if Lilia dies, I just hope that they give us answers about her story, the sigil and obviously her visions before she dies, but I hope that this doesn't happen 😩😢
The salem seven are cool but it would be like disappointing if they end in the next episode...I don't know I hope that they give them a good end at least
I have so many questions about the witches road, I'm sure that they would answer why the road it's based on Billy, but that scene of him "opening" the Witches Road it's more confusing after the last episode, maybe he is closing it instead?
Maybe the morgue it's when Agatha unlooks the memories that Billy had on the hex, like they have to do trials to open the door, I wonder what trial they have to do in that morgue
I'm sure that the 9 episode are flashbacks for Agatha's and Rio history, I'm excited to see that too, but now I'm not sure how this is going to end, luckily we are so close to the end!
Thank you so much for this videos ❤
I agree...I will hate to see Lilia die. I hope it doesn't happen, but if it does, then I hope she gets a really good episode this time around!
In last trial Scene (which is Agatha's Basement, if you look at the floor) She could be resurrecting memories of Billy and William into one, this is the trial where all of them relive theirs strong memories but not Billy because he doesn't have them all, so they need to get it in order to complete the trial.
I like the idea of Agatha trying to combine Billy and William's minds. That would be awesome!
@@ash24hr ok I like this
💯
I think the final boss battle may be in the Road because Agatha screams that she wants her prize - presumably the prize she gets for surviving the Road. I would think she’d get the prize before leaving, not after. But they’ve never explained how that works (for instance, who gives the prize? Is it just inherently magical?), so who knows.
I agree with you...it feels so much more natural for Agatha to be wanting a prize while still on the road. So I kinda hope that's how it ends up happening.
I like the idea idea of Billy's tell of being influenced by movies/shows like how Wanda loved shows. I also like the idea of Teen accepting this merged identity of Billy and William as it could serve as a potential conflict between his original super family and new normal family.
I wonder if we'll actually get closure on what happened to Tommy or if it'll be cliff hanger to be resolved in Vision Quest instead... like did Tommy's spirit end up in a different kid's body too or is his "rebirth" different from Billy's... Like maybe White Vision goes off in Vision Quest and creates synthezoid teenage kid (like he does in the comics) and Tommy's spirit ends up in that instead somehow?
So we get one kid who's more closely related to their mom and one kid more closely related to the dad
Those were some good predictions. I really loved the 2-part finale!
What Rio said at the end of the trailer is what she says in her fight with Agatha in episode 1
Good point! In the first episode, she says "After all these centuries, Agatha Harkness will finally meet her end."
Thanks for the multiple shout outs, was glad I could help
That video was so helpful! It was the missing piece in putting together several of the scenes!
@@AbitofEverything4U I was really surprised by just how much was in there.
And the weird part is the video was 3 weeks old
Yeah, it was great!
I think Billy's trial is about him accepting that he is both William Kaplan and Billy Maximoff, and Agatha is helping him get all his memories back.
I love that idea...It would be great to have their souls united into one.
Thank you for the shout out!
What if...
When Rio says 'that boy isn't yours,' she doesn't mean that he's not her son, but rather that he's not hers to protect, that he's already been promised to death (or a demon), and she's there to claim him?
What if all those witches Agatha has killed were evil witches, and it's her responsibility to protect the innocent, and that is why she attacked Wanda, thinking her to be harming people? Her power is triggered by being attacked, so when Alice accidentally hit her with her magick, she could not control her magick's response.
As for the question you asked, I think the road is taking inspiration from Billy's mind because he was the first to enter. If Agatha had been the first to enter, it would have been based off her mind.
I was very happy to give you a shout-out. You had some awesome feedback! And I like your idea that the road is pulling from Billy's mind since he entered first. That's a great suggestion. Love all your awesome theories!
@cathyy7130 well done on all these theories ! Impressive !
Agreed...they were great theories!
What is your view that this is a hex created by Billy unintentionally and not the road which Agatha traveled?
I really hope that isn't the case, as I fear it could be viewed as redoing Wandavision. I really hope the road is real and just changes to the specific needs and interests of the coven that walks it. That said, I'm down for whatever they give us. I really love the show so far!
Perhaps the real Witches' Road were the friends we made along the way. Oh they're all dead? Easy come easy go.
lol! Yeah, it ain't easy being a witch!
When Billy drives Agatha to round up the coven in episode 2 he has a necklace around his rear view mirror that Agatha puts on when they get to Lilia’s shop. That necklace looks very similar to the one Agatha put on Ralph B to control him but also where did it come from? It didn’t appear to be in Billy’s car when he came to Agatha’s this past week episode. Something to keep an eye on possibly….
Oh wow...I totally missed that. I agree, that's something we should keep an eye on!
Billy needs the road to find tommy’s soul. Jen & lilia will get their wish while on the road without even realizing. Alice already received hers and will be back. Agatha is am so unsure about and i love that. Rio is freaking death. Her weapon is a scythe without the handle. When teen is dying agatha looks to rio and says don’t. When rio finds agatha, agatha asks for more time, symbolizing bargaining with death. When they summon rio, she introduces herself as THE green witch. Sower & reaper. A green witch also deals with life and death not just plants itself
Very good theories! Can't wait to see how the series comes to a close. Been loving it so far!
Interesting stuff about the car crash and airbags. Given that Agatha was talking about the crash as a recent thing (relating it maybe to the body that was found), and the car crash that “killed” William Kaplan actually happened 3 years before when the hex came down…I think Agatha is actually talking about Wanda’s supposed death, and the “air bags” were actually the Chaos magic automatically saving her somehow until she could return?
So, my original thought on the "detective" spell in episode 1 was that she was seeing lots of things that happened in the past. For instance, if the body is meant to represent the Scarlet Witch, that happened 2 years ago in MoM which is in 2024. And if the accident was meant to represent the one that killed William, that was 3 years ago. So I was just thinking she was seeing things from lots of different points in time. But after the airbags didn't deploy, I'm beginning to doubt that I was right about that. So it does seem there was a different crash, as you point out...and maybe it's even related to the Chaos magic!
New idea: in the last episode Billy opens the road again. The shot we see in the mid-season trailer is neither a flashback (I can’t see much of a place for more Billy-flashbacks) nor a glimpse of the finale, him closing the road with Agatha inside, as a sacrifice to trap Death (he’s in a different outfit, and eliminating Death is a lousy idea). He doesn’t get his prize at the end of the road this time, because he doesn’t really know what he wants, so he tries again, like Agatha did (?).
Very good theories. Billy closing the road makes alot of sense.
2:12 but the William accident occurred 3 years before Agatha was talking to Rio, so there are two different accidents , correct me if I'm wrong
My original thought on the "detective" spell in episode 1 was that she was seeing lots of things that happened in the past. For instance, if the body is meant to represent the Scarlet Witch, that happened 2 years ago in MoM which is in 2024. And, to your point, if the accident was meant to represent the one that killed William, that was 3 years ago. So I was just thinking she was seeing things from lots of different points in time. But after the airbags didn't deploy, I'm beginning to doubt that I was right about that. So it does seem there was a different crash.
13:14 "Tommy & Agatha" 😂😂😂
D'oh! Can't believe I said that. lol!
I wonder what Maleficent and Billy have in common? Both Lilia and Glinda have the gift of insight, Jen and Grimhilde make potions, and Agatha and Elphaba are misunderstood villains.
HOW INTERESTING! DIDN'T EVEN CATCH THAT
Oh, now that's a very good question!
He did say, "I'm not that nice" - I think we're ALL in for a surprise with him, but I have no idea what it is. This show is FILLED with red herrings, and I think "Billy" will end up being the ultimate one! For a minute I thought maybe he's another entity pretending to be Wiccan, but no, last episode we see him waking up from the crash calling out for Tommy. We pretty much know he set this whole "The Road" thing in motion. The floorboards and pentagram leading to The Road is blue. For that matter, the actual Road and various trees/roots are blue. We know he can control people's minds. Like mother, like son? Is there some secondary hex happening? Did that chant in the "interrogation room" remove Wanda's hex, or just begin a new one? Why did we never get to see the red border of Wanda's hex that had been there for 3 years? Did they just leave that part out, or is the border blue, now? There's something there, and it's driving me nuts. Nuts, I tell you! lol.
I did not come up with something to answer your question but I want to point out that when they summoned Rio as the replacement green witch, the spell scene sort of parallels fairies giving gifts to baby in Maleficent/Sleeping Beauty. Also, the sleeping curse was to hit at 16 which is how old Billy's body is.
Joe said Jac is playing with forms in eps 7.
Maleficent has a dragon form, indicating 2 in 1?
We will eventually know, and if Agatha dies, that’s OK she has many times before and always come back
Ghost Agatha is my favorite Agatha tbh. I'd kind of love her snarking at Billy from the afterlife.
Snarky ghost Agatha is such a great idea. I love it!
I love all of the ideas that weveryone has and I’m excited to see what is true!
Yeah, I am loving all the awesome theories. Been such a really fun time trying to figure out together what's happening in the series!
A lot of the Easter eggs in Billy’s room, along with some of the research he has done or can presumed to have done over his 3 years, are shown during the credits sequence for each episode, so I’m pretty sure that they are definitely the key to something that we don’t know about yet. Also, I can’t believe that Agatha All Along is almost over. I enjoyed this show way more than I thought I would and, while I will miss this show, I can’t wait to see how they’re going to finish it off.
Yeah, only 3 more episodes left...with a double header next week. What will we do when it's over. I will miss all of these wonderful theories!
@@AbitofEverything4U Me too.
💯
Take notice how the aspect ratio always changes when a trial starts/ends. It does not happen in the last (Agathas) trial.
The previous trials all lead down like in the song ”DOWN the witches road” but this time they exited up.
The song also talks about ”tricks and trials” so my theory is that it was just a trick and not actually a trial.
Good theories...I definitely agree, something strange was going on with that trial!
Yes! There were moments in the trailer that shows Alice dead but she looks fine
@@mirzu42 jack Shaffer confirmed it was Agathas trial, and she was punished.
Right...Agatha was most definitely punished!
I have a theory about who truly belongs to the coven: during the D23 presentation where the cast sang the song 'The Ballad of Witches Road,' everyone sang except for Sharon, who just kept 'bouncing' like in the series, and Rio, who was staring at the audience. Both only say the final line. However, Billy sings the whole song. It could mean that he is the green witch of the coven not Rio or Sharon.
Good point! Yeah, that may have been a clue for us to pick up on!
It was mentioned that the green witch is essential to access the road, so maybe it's as simple as that... the road itself reflects the green witch to create the way the road appears to the coven and Billy IS the green witch.
Very good theory!
The building of hype...I'm ready to see whatever they have to offer, but hopefully some of these predictions come true!
We'll find out tonite!
I love this channel. I am always looking forward to the next video.
Aw, thanks! That's very nice of you to say.
Just taking note of Billy being instrumental for each task, he was the one who had the untainted blood in the first task and knew how to get the potion to a boil, and in the second he started the record and also played through a serious injury
Exactly...Billy has been a key part of both starting and ending each trial!
Lilia is the Divination witch, the Air element. She controls the trial and her powers are related to her link to the Air. I hope they don't just kill her, but as her trial "pass" she hopefully gets her reward and goes to her peaceful place. I am so connected to Lilia as a fellow Italian who reads Tarot and has Strega witches in her ancestry. Love this character and show 💜
I agree...Lilia deserves a good ending to her story. Hopefully we'll see that happen during the trial. She's definitely become one of my favorite members of the coven!
You were super thorough! Thank you!
Thanks! Really appreciate the positive feedback!
I actually feel like Billy’s trial is next and it will be that one with the morgue/lab setting with just Agatha and him there. I also think that we’ll have a second plotlibe in that episode with Jen and Lilia getting back into the road. Then I can see the air trail with Lilia in the second to last episode when the whole coven is together
Good theories...I could see it playing out like that.
Maybe when she gets her powers back she gets her witch outfit like how wanda got her witch outfit when she accepted who she was- I think every witch has a official magical outfit like a “magical girl” does when they are in their power mode- like how Billy’s crown appeared for a brief second
Good theory! Yeah, that would be very cool if she got her "power up" outfit after receiving her gift!
I'm looking forward to seeing what happens to Agatha at the end. Thanks for your hard work in bringing us fans' content. 🎉
Yeah, I am very curious to learn what Agatha wants as her prize. And thanks for your kind words about the vids. Really appreciate it!
I really enjoy your videos and insights/questions.
Thanks! Really appreciate hearing that. I love doing these breakdowns for the MCU!
8:09 number 1 here is kind of explicitly stated in the show. episode 3 "the road changes for the coven"
Exactly. I agree 100%!
I’m still curious about the car crash Agatha mentions in the first episode. She says the crash happened 1 hour after the time of death (supposedly of the body she found in the woods). If the body “represents” Wanda dying (starting to weaken the spell Agatha is in) then the crash is not the same as Billy’s crash because he crashed at the time the Hex went down, 3 years before. So I wonder if maybe someone else died?
Also if the sigil protected Billy from being found by Wanda during Multiverse of Madness, what about Tommy? I doubt he would also have got a sigil too
Yeah, that car crash line is still confusing me. There's something I'm missing. And I'm with you on the Tommy situation...I can't wait to learn why he wasn't detected by Wanda.
I think it’s likely that Rio wisped Billy’s notebook during the Salem 7 chase to ensure that when they got to the Earth trial, Billy wouldn’t be able to cover for Rio during the trial, and that’s when Rio will basically force them to fail so she can collect Agatha and the body she has been waiting to collect for 3 years, Billy Kaplan.
Cool theory! Can't wait to see how that trial goes down!
Also, I am certain that there's a spirit or another soul inside Agatha's body besides her own. If you rewatch all the episodes, you can clearly see personality changes, and even changes in Agatha's voice. If I had to guess, I'd say it's Nicholas, and that's why she didn't suspect Billy was Nicholas---she knows where Nicholas is.
I agree...Agatha has seemed to be alot more erratic after that spirit challenge!
It's been stated that The Road Changes for the Coven. But how does it change for the coven, you might be asking? I think I have it. I think that the road changes based on the individual strength of each member, the stronger the magic the more the road is influenced and the weaker the magic the less the road is influenced. 7:13
Nice theory! Yeah, that would certainly explain why so many aspects of the road were pulled from Billy's mind!
That's a really interesting detail about the airbags being absent. But I personally don't think it's significant, because the notion that the two airbags deployed came from Agatha while she was still under the detective fantasy spell, so it's basically an untrustworthy detail. (Or feel free to correct me if there's a piece that I'm not remembering right.)
Your reasoning for Billy's mind being the inspiration for the trials, as opposed to Billy creating the road himself, makes a lot of sense. But there's still a lot that points to Billy intentionally creating at least the trials, if not the entire road. Sure, like you said, there doesn't seem to be a reason why he would do that, as it doesn't seem to do anything to help him find Tommy, but there's still time for some new revelation that would explain that, if it turns out to be the case. The best mysteries are ones where the answers are hard to predict, but make total sense at the end.
Excellent feedback as always. Yeah, I'm definitely open to Billy creating the road and I agree, if that's the direction they go, I'm sure they'll give us a good reason for it.
The light shade behind the leaves is a moon shade. We see a handful of them in the kitchen in Jen's trial.
Ah! Okay, that makes alot of sense. Thanks for sharing that!
Reviewing episode 4, I noticed that at minute 12:45 a demon mask appears, but if you look closely you can see that his eyes open for a moment and close just when Jen sees him, but it seems that someone is watching, It could be Alice's curse, but it could be someone else... I hope they answer that in the rest of the episodes.
Yeah, that was really creepy. I agree, I want to know who that was!
I agree that Billy don't feel like a green witch. But when I pondered on it, he is literally connected to life, death and rebirth. William died in the car crash, his body mangled from the force of impact. And yet the doctor found no damage on it. Billy did not only posses a dead body, he also healed it from death to life.
Good points! Okay, that does make alot of sense.
What I found strange is that Billy seemed a bit confused about who he was when he possessed the body of William. Like unless I’m misremembering, Billy wasn’t sure that he was Billy maximoff when he was investigating west view, and he couldn’t fully remember anything about his past apart from Tommy, but that might be because his last thoughts were Tommy. Another thing to add to this is how he struggles with magic, wandavision Billy didn’t.
What im getting at is, Lilia said something about Billy’s life being split in 2, so what if there’s a bit of William Kaplan still in there, and then this is why the sigil covers both of his names, as he is still both of them
I think that's a fantastic theory. It would be cool if William's soul is trapped in there as well and Agatha helps heal him into one person during the trial.
I think that Agatha try the road before to safe his son's life somehow, but Rio (death) was too soon and took it away too soon. So even tho she completed the road, she didnt had her wish accomplish. Maybe this is why she killed all of that coven, because she was attacked because she killed all of HER coven on the road. I believe that she absorved her mom's coven and "killed" her own coven on the road, as they died by those tests. That would also explain why she wished for the darkhold instead, like she lost her wish, so she try to get her son back by other means
Excellent theories regarding Agatha's past. I can't wait to see what we learn in her flashbacks!
The shot where Agatha is attacked by kids may be where she spared the Salem Seven. You see her cut off the absorption. So she can do so when she’s in control of herself, though not necessarily when she’s power starved and possessed by her mother’s hateful ghost.
Good theory...yeah, that might be the explanation for that scene!
You comment about Billy being the green witch would go against him being a Chaos witch like his mother. They brought in Mrs. Hart as the green witch, then Rio shows up to replace her... so clearly Billy was not necessary meant to be the green witch. Also recall that it was Lilia who put the sigil on Billy, thus, blocking her from seeing him... and when Agatha and Rio fight, Rio mentions her 'black heart'.
Right...it seems Billy is a member of the coven but perhaps isn't the green witch. That makes it really odd, however, that there is an earth trial that seems to center around him. Really curious to see how that trial goes down!
Love all these can’t wait to see that big fight with Rio and Agatha! And more flashbacks!
Yeah, I agree...the boss fight and the flashbacks will both be awesome!
A couple of things to point out. Lilia’s trial seems to evoke the ten of swords tarot card which features ten swords in a man’s back and symbolizes an end to a difficult or challenging situation and the need to shed old beliefs, patterns, or relationships that no longer serve you. I think Lilia may be traveling her conscience through her past with each tarot card she reads/touches. So basically we’ll see her say the card’s name and be saying it in the trial and in the past when she gets there. I think there may also be some bleeding over as she travels backwards (maybe even mid sentence) which explains some of the weird stuff she says. I also find it very interesting that her challenge has her dressed as the only “good” witch and all the others are the villainous characters that form the stereotypes she was talking about in Jen’s trial. I think her role will be to clearly define what/who Rio is and maybe even be killed by her. After all isn’t the psychic who can predict death the natural enemy of death. It almost makes me think of the Final Destination movies. Like once Lilia is in control of her future predictions then that’s too much of a threat to Rio.
Those are fantastic predictions for next episode. Thanks for sharing all that. Loved reading it all! I think it's going to be a really powerful journey for Lilia. Can't wait!
So excited to see how it ends! Has been an amazing show! I hope we get more twists and turns!
Yeah, this series has been soooooo good!
I think I figured out why Agatha told Billy "are you sure?", when he said he won't hurt others. This whole road was made by him, like hex was made by Wanda. He indirectly killed both Sharon and Alice, and seems like Lilia too. Why was I so slow all this time lmao.
Good point...that would indeed explain that line!
The flashback scenes for Agatha past is her getting Punished by Rio/Death
Oh, now that's a cool theory!
I hope that the road is just subconsciously influenced by Billy because “road changes for the coven” and he’s done so much to get them all to the road so it changes for him. I think he might have done something upstairs to help open the gate to it just to kick it all off, but it’s not actually all done by him
I agree...like that idea lot better!
Nice to have clarification on the Green Witch situation. As for Billy and the road I think the road is pulling from Billy and not the other two options because while I don't think you mean "create the road" literally it also just doesn't sound right. The trailer shot I think we're seeing out of context and may not be him creating the road but only time will tell. And yeah I've been saying for a while those are Rio flashbacks and I think those are really needed because if Billy is the Green Witch then just who or what is Rio? We need information! I can believe Lilia possibly unaliving given Rio's dialogue of "the bodies are really piling up". I definitely think Rio is the final boss and it's off the road like they've completed the road and returned to the real world.
Yep, I'm on the same page as you on all of this. Can't wait to watch it all go down in the coming 3 episodes!
You’re forgetting, “the road changes for the coven” so maybe it actually pulls ideas from Billy bc he’s the only one showing he doesn’t want the coven to die but stick together
Good point...yeah, I would be totally down for that being the answer!
@@AbitofEverything4U idk, I’m just stuck on Jen and Agatha’s “coven true” argument. Road lyrics has its own rules 😈
Yeah, those lyrics are very important. Lots of clues hidden in them.
The scene with Rio scolding them looks more like she is agreeing with somebody in the trailer
Oh, you know, that could be the case. Very interested to see how people react to Rio suddenly re-appearing like that!
You don’t NEED a green witch to go on the road you just need a group of 5 witches. Though it is probably recommended that you have all those types of witches because the trials are about those crafts. Lilia was writing a coven list not a road list
Great point!
I also like the option that the road is pulling ideas from Billy's mind the best. In fact, I feel like there might be some almost prophetic connection between the road and Wiccan. It could even be connected to why Lilia put the sigil on him. It could be interpreted as her making sure the events of the Multiverse of Madness happen: Wanda dies, the Darkhold is destroyed etc. But maybe Lilia put the sigil to ensure that Billy/future Wiccan ends up on the road alone (and by that, I mean "without Wanda"). I mean, Agatha told us about the prophecy of the Scarlett Witch, right? And while she didn't mention Wiccan, we saw his figure at Wundagore. So, it makes sense there's some prophecy involving Wiccan, too. Maybe Wiccan and the road are connected by fate or something like that? As for Billy creating the entrance at the beginning, I doubt it, mostly because we saw that part of the story from his point of view already. It'd be weird if they were now like: "Oh, we still hid one thing from you". I believe we might see those events one more time, but from Rio's point of view. Either way, my guess is that Billy in that scene is in the basement of Agatha's house created by the road during the finale. Perhaps he tries to create a way of escape? Also, it makes more sense for him to be so "powered up" only by the end.
Excellent feedback! Yeah, I agree, I'm in favor of the road pulling ideas from Billy, rather than him being the creator of the road. And that's a good suggestion that the image of Billy over the portal is at the end of the series rather than the beginning. Very cool!
Here's my thoughts about Lilia's death. In Episode 4, she saw paintings and one of them is hanged dressed in white that could possibly her meeting her end in the Air Trial.
Oh, now that's an interesting idea. Perhaps she actually divined her own death!
I Guess Billy alone opened the gate earlier than the coven, this is why the road is bending more toward Billy's background.
That could certainly explain alot, if that's the answer.
I think the Road is pulling it from Billy's subconsciousness, and I have a few reason why.
1) Rio, when she got summoned, looks like she has never been to the Road. As Lady Death and The Green Witch, we can assume that she has definitely been there before. Perhaps she has never been to THIS version of the Road, as it changes for the coven and no two Roads are ever alike.
2) Wether or not Agatha knows about the Road itself changing (and not only the Trials), she definitely HAS been to the Road before. She must have noticed it not being the same as her's. Maybe she picked up on the connection to the Wizard of Oz and other movie- and tv-references, putting two and two together and noticing the "Maximoff-tell".
If this is true, I'm pretty sure is would be your option 1, The Road pulling it from his subconsciousness, as we've seen it do the same with the other witches of the coven (Jen's house that could be her clientele's, Alice's reference to her mom).
Also, in the mid-season trailer, we see the coven floating. What if they are not floating, but the Tower is reversing (as the swords seem to reference the Three of Sword's card and the table being the same one as the Queen of Cups' card), and all the random cards Lilia has been yelling throughout the show, is her having visions of the obstacles during her challenge?
Anyway, great video! Love your content.
Excellent feedback. I love both of your ideas. I really do think the road is just pulling ideas from the coven's minds, with Billy's ideas being used the most. And I love the idea of the tarot card "reversing" and thus flipping the room upside down. That's a very cool theory!
Nicely done! About the morgue: there is a very clear picture of Jen in the morgue on IMDB. I think she doesn’t die, but the road spits her up in the real world. Also, I’m thinking about Billy throwing everyone in the mud: he knew it would not kill them, but he also wanted them gone, because he thinks he doesn’t need them now (he said that to Agatha). What’s up with that?
Yeah, I had assumed Billy would explain his actions. Perhaps we'll learn more at the next trial. And your theory on Jen escaping makes alot of sense!
This season feels like the stages of grief and acceptance of death.
I agree...that theme does seem to be ringing true in many causes. Also, we're seeing a theme of overcoming trauma.
I subscribed a while ago.
Thank you so much for the warnings and secondary videos for spoilers. Love your channel and your fans and their theories 👏👏💪💪💐💐💯‼️
Thanks so much for being a subscriber. And yeah, I've heard from several people who like to avoid the trailers, so I will be sure to either discuss them in separate videos or will segment the vides like this one. Really appreciate your awesome feedback!
I have a feeling that all the scenes we see from the trailers that are about Agatha past or maybe some other Billy moments will happen during that more trial. It seems like whatever Agatha is doing is impacting Billy‘s brain so maybe they are going back through memories being forced to relive all of their encounters with Death? After all, they have both cheated Death numerous times and for the trial to be in a morgue I feel like that would fit the theme.
That's a good theory for where the flashbacks fit in. Nice call!
Rio Is essentially an entity literally.. she’s damn near collecting, and waiting. Not sure If there Is anyway to find Tommy since he’s a speedster, will find out the last episode.. outside of that this seems like it’s leading to a “deal with the devil”
It does indeed seem like we are headed to a deal with the devil!
1. I was genuinely so pleased to see that it was Lillia that cast the sigil. All along, especially after Agatha's casual mention that the witch who casts the sigil won't remember his name either, I assumed it would be a bigger character: Agatha, Rio, Mephisto, or even Billy himself.
But to see that it was Lillia and she was (I believe) trying to keep him safe, that was such a touching moment for me. In fact, the entire palm reading scene between them was a favorite of mine. I really liked that she seemed to know William was going to die, so she gave him a compliment ("good egg") and told him to live in the now because that's all we have... It was just such a lovely moment between them and showed Lillia as a loving, kind, and caring person, despite her crotchety and often aloof nature in the previous episodes.
I personally have always felt more of a connection to the "side" characters (not sure if that's the right phrase, but basically not Billy, Agatha, or Rio). While those three are undeniably great characters portrayed by phenomenal actors, I was rooting more for the other three (and even Mrs. Hart RIP).
I have a theory that Lillia's trial will involve her going back in time to put all these pieces together and make the story come to it's conclusion through the random, odd moments we've seen so far. I could be totally missing the mark with that, perhaps it's my wishful thinking to have her be more prominent in the show, but we haven't had her trial yet and each tarot reading felt important as well as her random outbursts. "Alice, don't!"Try to save Agatha!"Which is it? Am I wispy, or am I kooky?" etc.
I truly hope Alice, Jen, and Lillia aren't dead/gone from the road, or I feel like the show will lose a lot of its color from here on out. But I guess we'll just have to wait and see!
2. Wait...so are Lillia and Jen actually dead??? That confused me a ton. Weird if true and very anticlimactic for them.
I agree with everything you said about Lilia. She's an awesome character and it's been great to see her role become even more important due to the sigil. Hope her trial really lets her shine!
It will be something totally different! : )
Mmm... something different, new videos like MCU, DC, and Star Wars (my friend be ready for skeleton crew this Dec) too.
Speaking of everything, it's been 3 months since Star Wars: The Acolyte.
Also, I am so excited about Star Wars returning to movie theater!
💯
Before the show started a lot of people where sceptical about the show but now the show has nearly finished I’d say this is one of the best shows in phase 5 along with Loki Season 2 and X-Men 97
I agree...this show turned out to be amazing. I can't believe I ever doubted it!
@@AbitofEverything4U with all the superhero tv shows this year (I’d say that Echo is the only one SO FAR that hasn’t been thourally enjoyable)
Yeah, we've gotten alot of good shows this year!
The next trial will force the witches to find the whispers of the road. Revealing what Wanda did or who Billy is to them.
That would make alot of sense. Can't wait to see what gets revealed in the final 3 episodes!
I think that it is intentional, unlike the hex. If I recall correctly, one of the Billy's powers down the road, pun intended, is speaking things he imagines into existence (if im mistaken pls correct me). He may want the road to be real, because he has learned about it so far, and he at this point REALLY did want to find Tommy. And if the Road is supposed to grant wish you want, then he can will it so. After all, he confessed he has some knowledge, and let's not pretend he didn't have the power.
Good theory! Yeah, there is no doubt that Billy had alot to do with the creation of the road. I can't wait to see how everyone responds when they discover what his role was!
Hello. Your coverage always makes me happy. Thank you so much for taking the time to work so hard on these as always. 🎉 And congrats on the recent sub milestone.
As for theories. I think Billy needs to have a strong emotion to access his energy. So wether he intentionally created the entrance to the road or not, he'd have to be really in his feelings to pull off such a massive enchantment. I think the real question is more like, is this the road or have they been in Billy's mind the whole time? Like, these trials feel like what Billy thinks the trials should be. He is the one with the spell book. Who knows how many of their magical processes he's studied and lied about not knowing. He knows the word hexbessen but has to be taught the ceremony to get one? In a way he's getting a practical experience first hand from magical witches, and to an extent by befriending them, taking their knowledge and magic for his own. He's doing what Agatha does without shortcuts, though I still think putting them in this predicament is harmful/fatal. That's why Agatha's right about maximoffs being dramatic, cause he could have just studied under someone had he not been protected from other witches by Lillia.
My other theory is that Agatha is going to pull a Charles Xavier in the circular sterile asylum looking room. She's going to try to get into billy's head like she did with Wanda. However, billy might pull an uno reverse and take her through all the covens she's stolen from and her initial meeting with Rio. That will likely lead into a climactic battle where, if Rio is who people suspect, she will come to claim the child that escaped her three years ago. The child she actually was in the neighborhood looking for, when the darkhold was destroyed and she finally spotted Agatha.
Then when she shows up later she confirms he's not Nicholas scratch but that doesn't mean she knows it's him. Now that the sigil is broken things might change.
Thank you again for reading all these comments. It's a lot, I know. But I think your one of the most dedicated people in the field and I'm happy to be part of this, and to contribute in anyway I can.
Edit: oh uhm. With the earth trial. A lot of time earth is represented by stones and metals. It makes sense in a way that the earth trials in a big metal box, that the lights are florescent bulbed, that it's a morgue. After all, bodies get buried. The physical material world is often associated with the earth element and a cadaver is our physical self without the other elements. Blood coagulates into solids, there are no emotional sensations. There's no air coming into the lungs, and no oxygen going to our thinking mind. Our body loses it's homeostasis, and the fire of our passion is extinguished. The spirit element Agatha represents is obvious, a cadaver is a body sans soul.
So yeah, earths a morgue. Makes sense.
Awesome theories. I think your ideas about Billy and how he's tied to the road make sense. And I love your thoughts on the earth trial. I'm really looking forward to that one. This series has been so amazing and it's made it all the more fun and enjoyable to read all the incredible theories people leave in the comments. It's like having a huge brainstorming session with all your comic loving friends!
