Marvel brings [SPOILER] back in Agatha All Along episode 7

Agatha All Along has been quite the journey thus far. What appeared to be a festive treat from Marvel Studios designed specifically for the Halloween season has had almost as many unexpected thrills and spills as its parent series WandaVision. And if you were here for the WandaVision era, you'll know that's saying a lot!

The Disney Plus series has been following Agatha Harkness as she attempts to reclaim her power on the Witches' Road, but her recent discovery that Teen is actually Billy Maximoff has thrown a bit of a spanner into the works. There is a witch more powerful than her on the road with her, and one that has a vendetta against her given the way that she has treated the other witches around her. He tried to kill her once, but will he do it again?

However, it's also worth noting that he's very like his mother, Wanda Maximoff, which can result in outbursts of power that often have dark consequences. We learned in episode 7, however, that the consequences weren't as bad as initially portrayed.

Agatha All Along reveals that Lilia and Jen are still alive

The seventh episode of Agatha All Along confirmed that two of the show's most beloved characters are still alive after all. Yes, fear not, Agatha fans for Lilia Calderu and Jennifer Kale are indeed still with us.

It had been a rough two weeks for fans of both characters, as their fates had been left uncertain after episode 5. The moment that Teen revealed himself to be Billy Maximoff, a.k.a. the son of the Scarlet Witch, he took control of Jen and Lilia's minds and had them throw Agatha Harkness into the mud at the side of the Witches' Road. When they did that, he forced them backwards into the mud as well, presumably killing them.

The sixth episode, "Familiar By Thy Side", revealed that Agatha had survived Billy's magical attack (which came as no surprise to anyone given that she is the main character of the show), but it left the fates of Jen and Lilia up in the air. In fact, it actually implied that the witches had died, as Billy began to feel guilty over his outburst, with Agatha seemingly confirming that the pair didn't make it. But now we know that's not the case at all.

As the seventh episode reveals, Lilia and Jen found their way under the Witches' Road. Much like Agatha, they were covered in the mud that they sunk into on their way down into it, but they survived (which is great news as it means that the enchanting forces that are Patti LuPone and Sasheer Zamata are still on the show). And this set the stage nicely for the rest of the episode.

Episode 7 is Lilia's long-awaited trial, with adopts a fairytale theme as Lilia herself is dressed as Glinda The Good Witch, Agatha as the Wicked Witch of the West, and Billy as Maleficent.

New episodes of Agatha All Along stream on Disney Plus each Wednesday.
