It scares me a little that Agatha All Along is on a children’s content platform when the series is nocturnal and very scary when it wants to be. And it wants to be all the time. In this week’s episode, the focus is more on Agatha Harkness (Kathryn Hahn), the teenager who has yet to be named.

If the first two tests of The Witches’ Road were themed around elements (designed for Jennifer Kale and Alice Wu-Gulliver), it was Agatha’s turn, in a 1980s horror movie atmosphere to punish her for wanting to regain power at all costs. Her coven turns against her and the consequences are tragic. Everything the song has already warned us about.

We have broomstick flights (with a simplified and perfect explanation of why they are no longer popular elements) and a lot of emotion. Starting with the fact that the Salem Seven saw the open door and went down the Witches’ Road too. They’re terrifying! This increases the pressure and the rush to get the tests done soon.

First, we have the explanation about who the Salem Seven are, another confirmation. They are indeed the original coven that we saw in WandaVision and that Agatha killed. She spared her children and they want revenge (with Agatha hysterically regretting having done the “good deed”). “Mercy is overrated”, she says.

With that, it’s her turn for the test and Agatha can’t help but be evil and try to trick the other witches. In the Ouija game, with clear rules that everyone will eventually have difficulty following, the truths come to light.

The goal is to “Punish Agatha”, and the spirit of her mother – Evanora Harkness – reappears. According to her, the punishment would be to finish the Witches’ Road without Agatha, but Rio refuses. During the discussion, they look for alternatives and try to expel Evanora from Agatha’s body, an idea of ​​Alice’s, but her powers are sucked out.

In desperation, the teenager returns to the Ouija to find out which spirit is with them now and we have a new revelation: Nicholas Scratch. When Agatha hears the name, she stops sucking Alice’s life and energy, but… too late. They passed the test, and Alice is dead. The teenager begs Jen and Lilia to help save Alice, but they tell him it is impossible.

As they leave, Agatha invokes her magic, secretly realizing that she has her powers back, which angers the teenager because he realizes that the witch deliberately used Alice. Jen and Lilia accept her decision, except for the teenager who is outraged by the witches’ selfishness. And this outrage is the hint that Agatha needs, telling him that “he is very much like his mother”. Maybe it would have been better to have kept quiet.

With his own blue magic coming out of his fingers, the teenager takes the bodies of Jen and Lilia, and throws Agatha off the road, leaving her to sink into the mud that scared everyone at the beginning of the journey. The teenager is wearing a crown that looks a lot like the one worn by the Scarlet Witch, his real mother. Yes, it’s Billy Maximoff. What now?
