SPOILER ALERT! This publish accommodates particulars from Wednesday’s episode of Agatha All Alongside.
Now that we all know Teen aka Billy Maximoff’s motive, he and Agatha are again on the Witches Highway.
To make amends for Episode 6, click on right here. In any other case, let’s dive into Episode 7, which begins not with Agatha or Billy, however with Patti LuPone’s Lilia. She and Jen (Sasheer Zamata) have been additionally thrown off the Highway by Billy, and so they’ve but to be seen since.
Lilia is falling when she first seems on display, sporting a pink robe and a crown, dressed very like Glinda the Good Witch. However that’s all for now, because the scene fades to Agatha and Billy trekking down the Highway once more.
Agatha is attempting to taunt Billy into speaking to her, however all she will get out of him is, “The place’s Rio?” — a legitimate query, as Aubrey Plaza’s Inexperienced Witch has been lacking in motion as nicely. Agatha deflects.
“Some other queries of your outdated babysitter?” she says. “I’m your mother’s ex finest buddy.”
He shoots one other robust one at her: “Is Wanda Maximoff actually useless?”
“Sure. No. Perhaps,” Agatha replies, coyly.
Agatha claims she noticed a physique, although she’s undecided if anybody else did. Quickly, they’re upon the following trial, as they spot an eery mansion looming forward. Billy continues to be having a tough time trusting Agatha, and he says he’s begun to query whether or not she’s ever walked the Highway in any respect.
As they stroll by way of the doorways of the mansion, their garments rework as soon as once more. Agatha is dressed as Elphaba from Depraved (inexperienced pores and skin and all), and Billy dons horns very like these of Maleficent. After they comment on their new seems to be, they discover a stone desk within the heart of the room that reads, “your path winds out of time.” That’s when Billy notices the tarot deck. When he picks it up, the timer begins.
He offers Agatha a tarot studying, which seems to be lethal, as they quickly notice there are swords within the ceiling that can fall in the event that they get the studying incorrect. Agatha rips the deck from his hand, saying there’s no talent to tarot, and begins slamming random playing cards down. Extra swords fall from the ceiling, with one almost piercing Billy, who jumps out of the way in which simply in time.
In the meantime, we’re again with Lilia, and Jen is together with her now. This seems to be moments after they disappear into the mud. As they’re looking for a manner out, Lilia is confused, and Jen is fairly offended.
Lilia is appearing extra confused than traditional, and shortly audiences are pulled into her thoughts, as she asks Jen, “Which is it, am I wispy, or am I kooky?” You could bear in mind, that is what Lilia randomly requested Alice within the music studio in Episode 4. As she says it, the scene flashes again to that second. Then, Lilia continues with that outburst, as she says, “Alice, don’t!” and the scene flashes to the earlier trial in Episode 3, the place Lilia randomly screamed “attempt to save Agatha!” as they have been brainstorming the problem.
Then somebody asks, “Lilia, what do you see?” and an outdated girl from the Renaissance period is talking to a younger woman. She solutions in Sicilian, and the outdated girl replies: “You’re touring. How lengthy has it been?”
The subsequent time the digital camera pans, Lilia is sitting throughout from the outdated girl, replying, “centuries.”
This girl says she’s giving Lilia her first lesson on tea leaves. When Lilia friends within the cup, she’s transported again to Jen, underneath the Highway. She gasps, and Jen assumes she’s confused once more, however Lilia lashes out, insisting she isn’t confused. She accuses Jen of pondering she’s outdated and senile, and Jen rebuttals by asking what she ought to see as a substitute.
“The stream of time is an phantasm, Jen. Most individuals don’t notice that,” she says, explaining that, as a baby, she skilled her life out of sequence. She would see flashes in her thoughts, and now it’s taking place once more…and it’s getting worse. She doesn’t know why, however can solely assume which means she’s “near the tip.”
Simply then, she’s pulled into the trial, wearing that Glinda outfit, with Agatha sitting on high of her. Seems, Agatha was pushing her down to avoid wasting her from being impaled by a sword. Oh, and Jen can also be there, dressed as Woman Tremaine from Cinderella.
When Lilia lays eyes on Billy, she storms for him, pinning him in opposition to a wall. He profusely apologizes, explaining that he wasn’t hiding his powers, as they have been a shock to him to. Lilia realizes that he’s studying her thoughts and, now that the sigil has been destroyed, she says she remembers Billy from the bar mitzvah. She places apart her anger, as a result of she realizes they want her assist with the trial. Billy asks if she’s the one who put the sigil on him, and she or he admits it was her, as a result of she noticed what would occur to him that night time and knew he wanted time.
Simply then, she has a flashback once more, going again to the final trial, when issues have been going loopy in that cabin, and Lilia yelled, “I hated this the primary time.” Then, it flashes again to the primary time they met her, when she turned away from them to scream together with her fingers over her ears. Instantly, she’s again with the outdated girl, and she or he’s nonetheless yelling.
“Inform me about your life now,” the girl calls for, asking if she has a coven. Lilia questions what for, because it has by no means labored out for her up to now. She asks the girl the way to management what’s taking place, however the girl says her solely job is “to see.”
Then, she’s again within the tunnel with Jen, attempting to determine a method to escape after being thrown off the Highway. (Discuss a complicated timeline.)
Jen asks why Lilia’s potential ultimately stopped manifesting, and Lilia says it’s as a result of she needed it to. She began ignoring it, and it went away. That’s once they bump into Agatha and Billy, who’re bickering as she and Jen fall by way of the door. No sword falls on her this time as she approaches the desk to look at the tarot.
She sits throughout from Billy, prepared to present him a studying. He must ask a query crucial to his existence on Earth. “Am I William, or am I Billy?” he blurts out, and the desk stops spinning. An excellent query, she says.
Billy pulls a card and it’s the Magician. She lays it on the desk, and nonetheless a sword falls, however Lilia is satisfied she’s acquired it proper. She continues, as Billy pulls The Solar, then…that’s when the sword falls on Lilia and she or he screams, “get off me!” simply as she did in Agatha’s basement within the second episode.
She’s again with the outdated girl, asking: “What am I lacking?” The outdated girl pushes her, asking Lilia why she is on this journey, to which Lilia solutions, “To get my powers again.”
“Is it gone? The place did it go? This isn’t the true motive,” the outdated girl goads. Lilia responds, “I’m a forgotten girl,” so the girl says she wants to recollect. Lilia then reveals that the outdated girl was as soon as a part of their coven and, on account of her potential, she noticed that her whole coven would die from a plague earlier than it occurred. Nonetheless, she couldn’t change it. The outdated girl has made peace with loss of life, however Lilia clearly has not.
“When will it come for me?” she asks. “I used to be falling. I’ll fall.”
The girl solutions: “Sure. What is going to you do along with your remaining time?”
Rapidly, Lilia is hovering over Jen, coated in mud after being kicked off the Highway. She explains the son of the Scarlet Witch kicked them off telepathically, and they should discover their manner again. She tells every thing to Jen, figuring out that in a couple of minutes she’ll neglect all of this. Simply then, they hear the Salem Seven on their tail and conceal. As they watch them glide previous, Jen needs to see what they’re as much as. However as a substitute of go after them, Lilia explains they should discover Agatha and Billy within the subsequent trial.
Again within the trial, all of the items click on into place. She realizes she is the Traveler, aka the Queen of Cups. She is empathetic, intuitive, internal voice to be trusted. She locations it in the midst of the desk, and all of the swords keep on the ceiling. She throws down the Three of Pentacles for What’s Lacking. The Path Behind is the Knight of Wands, and the Path Forward is the Excessive Priestess. Obstacles? Three of Swords. With barely any time left, she lastly reaches the Vacation spot…and the scene cuts again to Lilia and Jen falling into the Highway as soon as extra.
This time, Lilia encounters Rio. Besides, it isn’t Rio. It’s loss of life. Or, Rio is loss of life. Keep in mind how the ouija board swore Loss of life was within the room with them? Appears prefer it wasn’t incorrect in any case.
It cuts again to the trial room, the place the ceiling of swords is about to break down on everybody, and Agatha takes the Loss of life card within the heart of the desk, saving them from being impaled. The ceiling retreats, and the door to the Highway opens. Lilia tells them she’s realized that Rio is Loss of life.
Agatha admits she’s identified all alongside, shrugging as she says, “What can I say? I just like the dangerous boys.”
Lilia ushers them out and again onto the Highway earlier than locking herself within the room, sacrificing herself for her coven. It appears the Salem Seven have been lurking, and Lilia managed to lure them into the trial room, the place she flips the Tower Reversed card so it’s upright, upheaving all the room. It stuns the witches, sending all of them flying because the room spins the other way up, every falling onto a sword. Lilia holds onto the desk to avoid wasting herself, however ultimately she lets go, permitting herself to fall.
That’s the scene we noticed on the very starting of the episode. The display cuts to black, after which we see a younger, Renaissance-era woman working to start her first lesson on tea leaves with that outdated girl in Sicily.
