The way Agatha's demeanor changes when talking to Teen at the end is incredible acting. Kathryn Hahn deserves her Golden Globe nomination, she crushed this role.
Her demeanor changes throughout the episode are so well-acted. Even as she’s tries to play it off with jokes you can see the vulnerability when facing her mother. The reflex response and ecstasy of the power draw, her face when she hears her son’s name. Her expressions when she feels some power at last and then when Billy won’t believe her. (The Agatha who Cried Truth.) But especially the turn into her Villain armor. And hearing another Maximoff come holier than thou. Uh-uh. So good.
FINALLY!!! A reactor who understands that “Teen” prioritizes connection and friendship and working together, thus why this trial and Alice’s death made him SO ANGRY (in addition to Alice being his friend and Agatha showing no remorse, plus Lilia and Jen’s apathy)
Although Agatha's last words to him make me wonder if his priority is as selfless as we think… I'm ready for another plot twist if the writers want to surprise me 😎
Well, even being tired, you knocked this one out of the damn park. Well done! One of the things I love most about this series is how they incorporate social issues into the storyline. I agree with your statement about addiction, and I think Agatha's automatic reflex to crave and consume is strong symbolism of that. Agatha's mother hated her from birth over her _perception_ of Agatha being evil. Instead of trying to understand her, she would rather kill her; and tried. Rio has been in love with Agatha for a long time and understands their relationship dynamics. As much as she claims to want to kill or torture Agatha herself, she stiffened her back and was ready to go toe to toe with Agatha's mom. Rio tried explaining to the coven multiple times how abusive Agatha's mother was to her. This storyline is tragically very emblematic of the LGBT youth experience for many kids; being hated and exiled by a parent (or parents) for something you can't control. This series is doing so much more than putting a bunch of Marvel characters together and slapping on some fight scenes. They are telling stories on a much deeper level and showing an unwavering commitment to giving representation to those who have been so grossly underrepresented in the Marvel movies and series (ie. women, women over 40, and LGBT). Finally, BILLIE Eilish introducing us to BILLY Maximoff... genius.
Excellent comment(s) :) I would sincerely not be surprised if we learned that Agatha in the product of r***, possibly by Mephisto having tricked her mother. Her and Agatha reminded me A LOT of Carrie (Stephen King/Brian De Palma). Also her addiction to power parrallels in a weird way Alice's selflessness: Agatha's addiction made her powerful her entire life and in the end, regaining a small part of that power made her miserable and punished by Billy, while Alice has been miserable her whole life and on the days before her death and during her death itself, she's never been as powerful and glorious. I need to check other works done by the writing team, because they created A MASTERPIECE. And I'm barely halfway through like… O_o'
Yes!! Somebody else (also ND here, ADHD) who follows Lilia’s outbursts as out of time/out of sequence! It’s a ND thing to predict or see the details that nobody else sees. Loving your reactions! 👏
Thank you very much! It's very encouraging!! I take a lot of time to make these videos, while I'd love to just binge watch the series :D But it makes me appreciate each episode fully before getting to the next one. I'm recording episode 6 tomorrow morning, can't wait!
Thank you! I watch a lot of films and series, and with time patterns tend to appear. But the writers made an excellent work by “edging” me in my expectations :D
I don't know yet if we'll see the full extent of his powers before the end of the series, but I can't wait! I think I read Young Avengers will be a series too, and I hope they'll show us as much as possible
Everyone is teasing, I'm SOOOO excited! Thank you for the support! Recording myself helps me getting my emotions out, it's very therapeutic :) So I'm very glad the videos please all of you
You called it. Interested to see the next two reactions. Those two episodes are my favorite of the series. Any thoughts on Rio/or where she went at the end of this episode?

Agree! I think she'll be nominated, and the writers and music composers should too!

@@demsaelJac Schaeffer also created WandaVision. Have you seen that already?
Of course! It was so good too! Completely different though, the range of the writing team is awesome (if they kept the same people of course)
@@demsaelSoooo... When is your next video dropping? 🙃
Working on it! I hope to publish it on Monday 😬 (I'm not working for the next 2 weeks so the one after will drop faster 😏😉)
Yes!! Somebody else (also ND here, ADHD) who follows Lilia’s outbursts as out of time/out of sequence! It’s a ND thing to predict or see the details that nobody else sees. Loving your reactions! 👏
Patterns and puzzles are friends to our brains 😎 (Thanks for the support!)
Great prediction regarding poor Alice. Super excited for the reaction to next episode!!
Don't tease me like that! I'm so excited! (Recording it tomorrow morning ;) )
Great reactions.
Thank you so much 🥰
This was a great reaction.
Thank you very much! It's very encouraging!!

Great reaction. You are very intuitive!
Thank you! I watch a lot of films and series, and with time patterns tend to appear. But the writers made an excellent work by “edging” me in my expectations :D
Absolutely iconic ending
Worthy of a season's finale. I have no idea how all of this will end, but this series is the sweatest treat I had in AGES!
Wiccan one of the most powerful sorcerers 💙👑
I don't know yet if we'll see the full extent of his powers before the end of the series, but I can't wait! I think I read Young Avengers will be a series too, and I hope they'll show us as much as possible
@demsael Yes
Great emotional reaction. Subscribed. Looking forward for you to react to the next 4 eps. They're wild.
Everyone is teasing, I'm SOOOO excited! Thank you for the support!

What a teasing!… ;)
I realised Rio wasn't there only while editing. I'll talk about my theories in the next video (recording tomorrow morning)!
