Key Moments You Might Have Missed in Agatha All Along Episode 7

“Agatha All Along” Episode 7: Uncovering the Hidden Gems

 

Get ready for a deep dive into Episode 7 of “Agatha All Along,” so if you haven’t seen it yet, beware of major spoilers from this episode, along with “WandaVision” and “Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness.”

 

This week, titled “Death’s Hand in Mine,” cleverly references the lyric from “The Ballad of the Witches’ Road.” It also ties into a significant moment later when Lilia pulls the Death card. Throughout the episode, there are nods to “Alice in Wonderland,” particularly when Lilia’s journey into darkness parallels Alice’s fall into Wonderland.

 

Agatha mentions that Billy can’t read her mind, echoing her words to Wanda in “WandaVision” Episode 8. There’s also a delightful callback when Agatha identifies herself as Billy’s “old babysitter,” recalling her interactions with the twins in “WandaVision.” Notably, Agatha is the first to express doubt about Wanda’s death right from Episode 1, and this episode reinforces that theory.

 

There’s a humorous moment when Billy queries Agatha about whether she saw “a body” concerning Wanda, playing off the classic TV trope where a character’s fate is uncertain if a body isn’t shown. As with earlier trials, viewers can spot a depiction of the moon’s phases before Agatha and Billy enter the castle, hinting at a looming full moon in the final episodes.

 

Inside the castle, Agatha and Billy transform into iconic witches. Agatha dresses as the Wicked Witch of the West from “The Wizard of Oz,” even claiming inspiration for the character, while Billy channels Maleficent from “Sleeping Beauty.” The pivotal swords trial also connects to tarot symbolism, representing the interplay of intellect and power, with cards symbolizing problem-solving.

 

While rushing through the tarot trial, Agatha lays down several cards: The World, Wheel of Fortune, Ten of Swords, Five of Wands, Two of Wands, Page of Swords, and The Hanged Man. It’s worth noting that the Ten of Swords and Five of Wands appear reversed, each carrying distinct meanings tied to their respective placements. For instance, the Wheel of Fortune card hints at life’s cycles, while the reversed Ten of Swords symbolizes recovery.

 

The episode also sees Lilia explaining the meaning of various positions on the trial board, correlating them with the cards Agatha played. Lilia and her companion Jen undergo similar transformations, with Lilia as Glinda the Good Witch and Jen as the Evil Queen from “Snow White.” Billy’s internal dialogue about Lilia being “so loud” humorously contrasts Billy’s earlier experience with Agatha in “WandaVision.”

 

Agatha affectionately refers to Lilia as “Dory,” referencing the forgetful character from “Finding Nemo.” Meanwhile, a fleeting shot shows Jen holding an apple, reminiscent of the poisoned apple given to Snow White by the evil queen. Billy’s first card draw is The Magician, aligning with his Wiccan abilities. The Three of Pentacles tarot card showcases each of the coven’s members, tying back to earlier storylines.

 

Lilia’s phrasing about the coven being “singular voices waiting to harmonize” recalls their musical moment in Episode 2. Additionally, there are visually striking echoes of past episodes as Lilia places tarot cards, with one stunning shot featuring Agatha representing the Three of Swords.

 

The episode culminates with the revelation of Rio as the original green witch, known as Death, a character with a long history in Marvel comics. The closing scene is particularly striking—only five members of the Salem Seven are shown impaled on swords, leaving the possibility that two may still be at large.
