SPOILER ALERT! This post contains details of the penultimate episode of Agatha all the time.

the conclusion of Agatha all the time It is finally upon us.

Last week revealed More about Lilia’s backstory and explained why she’s seemingly been talking to herself all season, but also left viewers with a ton of questions to answer in the final two episodes. Read on for a recap of the penultimate episode, titled “Follow Me, My Friend, to Glory at the End.”

The episode opens again in the cabin from episode 5with the camera zooming in on Alice, who died after Agatha siphoned her power. A hand caresses her face wistfully and she wakes up to face Rio, also known as Death, as we learned in Episode 7.

Rio tells Alice “it’s time to go”, pointing to her lifeless body, still lying on the ground. Alice asks, “Is that all? Is that all the time I have? She begs Rio for more time, but Rio reminds her that she died protecting someone, as any good Protective Witch should. She and Rio disappear through the door together.

Meanwhile, Jen panics when she knocks on the door leading to their final trial, where Lilia has just sacrificed herself after the tarot reading to save them from the Salem Seven. Billy is worried too, but Agatha is a little worried as she runs to Rio.

“Your coven is shrinking,” Rio scoffs. “The bodies are really piling up, just like you promised.”

Rio accuses Agatha of “distracting” her from Billy, whom she calls an “abomination” who is “disturbing the sacred balance.” Agatha becomes emotional when Rio reminds her that she is walking with “another woman’s son” and yells at her to stop talking.

Rio jokes that no one has received special treatment like Agatha, implying that Rio has ensured that she has narrowly avoided death so far, but Agatha disagrees and says that Rio has only taken her from him.

“And that’s usually your move, right?” Rio jokes, before asking Agatha why she lets the coven believe “those things” about her, about what she did to her son. Agatha says, “Because the truth is too horrible.”

Back outside the trial door, Jen assures Billy that Lilia wanted to stay to save them. They then start talking about Rio, as Jen says that the Green Witch showed us who she was from the beginning.

“So Agatha’s ex is dead?” —Billy asks. Jen shrugs, “That makes sense too.”

They set off to find Agatha, who is with Rio, and now discuss Billy’s mission to find Tommy at the end of the Road, which Rio calls a “rape” and Agatha thinks it’s a waste of time.

“His brother is not out there. At least not yet,” Rio says, explaining that Billy “stole a second life,” but his twin didn’t, and his goal is to stop Billy before he helps Tommy do it.

“Then take it,” says Agatha. But then she realizes that Rio can’t take him, because if he dies, he’ll just be reincarnated again and she’ll lose him. He needs to go with her willingly, which Agatha promises to convince him to do, only if Rio lets her go. She wants Death to stop chasing her, at least for the moment.

“And when I die… I don’t want to see your face,” he says.

Rio reluctantly agrees, before walking away to a distant spot in the forest, where he cuts the air with his knife, leaving a large hole as if the forest were just a paper backdrop, rather than a practical world, and disappears. .

When Agatha finds Billy and Jen, she hears the teen say that she will “never be more than a witch without a coven.” Oh. But Agatha has more important things to do, so she tells them they must keep moving forward until their final test.

This test will involve earth magic and they no longer have a Green Witch, so Jen will have to step up again to use her knowledge of potions to help them pass it.

As they walk, Agatha trips over the shoes they left at the beginning of the Path. They realize that the Path is a circle. And the beginning is also the goal.

So how do they come out?

Agatha is furious and desperate, insisting that they keep walking. Jen says she doesn’t want to endure the Camino again, to which Agatha replies, “Good! Stay here!

But as she walks away, Billy has other plans. He reminds them that they took off their shoes out of respect for the Camino, something that has been completely lost. He puts his shoes back on and boom…

Suddenly, a body bag is being unzipped in a steel room. Agatha is there too, as is Jen. Each in their own body bags. Agatha assumes it’s a version of her basement, although it looks completely different. Jen notices that it’s lit with grow lights, but Agatha wonders how they could grow anything without water or soil.

One of the grow lights turns off, indicating that the countdown has begun. They continue to shut down one at a time as they think about what to do.

In conversation, it emerges that Agatha is actually the one who stopped Jen from using her magic in the first place. Naturally, this angers her, although Agatha insists that she didn’t know it was Jen who she cast the spell on. She was simply performing spells for money in the 1920s, and Jen was someone else’s target.

Jen tears out a lock of Agatha’s hair and ties her hands to perform a release ritual. “You have nothing,” he repeats over and over again. And just like that, Jen gets her magic back.

But then she disappears.

“The Road gave him what he was missing,” Agatha explains. She tells Billy, “This can end here and now. I came for power. You have power. Give it juice.

Billy refuses, believing he would be left alone in that room if Agatha got what she wanted. So, Agatha offers to help him find his brother. She tells him that Tommy isn’t waiting “out there.” At least not in a body.

She tells Billy that Rio is trying to stop him from finding his brother, because that would require him to steal a body like Billy did. Agatha tells Billy to sit down and close his eyes, to which he obeys.

He then asks her to remember her last moments with Billy: they were 10 years old and living in Westview. He remembers being with his parents, about to fall asleep, with Tommy by his side. She can hear Tommy breathing heavily in his sleep, and Agatha makes Billy breathe in rhythm, encouraging him to block out the noise of his mother’s world as she collapses.

Agatha grabs Billy’s head and tells him to find Tommy a place to go. He says he can’t find a place, but Agatha knows that’s not true. Too many people die every day for Tommy to not have a body.

Finally, he lands on one. A boy who was pushed into a pool as a prank, but is going to drown. In agony, Billy asks, “Agatha, am I going to kill this child so my brother can live?”

He screams one last time and then disappears. “No, Billy,” Agatha responds once he’s gone. “Sometimes children die.”

She sits alone in the steel room, as the grow lights go out one by one. Only three remain shining as he opens his locket and removes his son’s hair, rubbing it across his face, before realizing that this could be the key to his escape.

“Out of death comes life,” she says breathlessly, before letting her tears fall into her hair and burying it in a small patch of dirt in the room. Just as the last light fades, a flower grows from the ground. All the lights turn on again and the room begins to collapse. Stones and dirt fall on Agatha, who runs towards the door screaming for someone to let her out.

The door opens, she pulls off the road and heads back into Westview. She looks up and finds Rio sitting on top of her house. The sky is dark and green as the wind blows, Rio laughs. Agatha tries to use her powers, but she can’t find them anywhere.

“I took the child from you, as agreed!” Agatha insists. But that wasn’t the deal. He was supposed to turn himself in. Then, Rio will take Agatha. She begins performing earth magic to “expel the evil” that is Rio, but Rio quickly thwarts her plan. In between Rio’s attacks, Agatha continues to try to perform magic, but soon Rio has her tied up and unable to move.

Just in time, a flash of blue light throws Rio to the side. And there’s Billy Maximoff, or should we say Wiccan, here to save the day.

“Don’t take it all,” he says before attacking Agatha with his powers. And she doesn’t. Once he has what he needs (and a little more, admittedly) and has returned to his full glory, he lets go of Billy’s magic.

Rio still wants one of them, which means a duel is coming. Agatha attacks Billy, probably hoping to save him from the crossfire as she goes toe-to-toe with Rio. She returns just in time to save Agatha from a fatal blow, sending Rio flying back.

Agatha and Billy have a heart-to-heart conversation, where Agatha says that they won’t be able to evade death. She offers herself so Billy can live. However, when Rio returns, Billy tells her that he will go with her willingly.

“Take it. You heard it. The boy, like he promised,” Agatha tells Rio, leaving Billy feeling betrayed and confused. “What can I say? “I am a witch without a coven.”

Billy pleads with Agatha inside his head: “Agatha, I know you can hear me. Is this how Nicky died?

She stops in her tracks and turns around, walks towards Rio and kisses her passionately on the lips. Rio’s magic envelops Agatha, who floats into the sky, letting Death take her away. She falls gently to the ground, and as her body sinks into the ground, daylight emerges over Westview.

Rio tells Billy that he is free to go and leaves without hesitation after grabbing Agatha’s locket from the floor. He walks through Westview, gets into his car and drives away, recovering from everything that just happened.

He returns to his home in Eastview, where William’s parents are distraught. After freshening up, Billy enters his room and finds several reminders of the Way, including a poster of Lorna Wu, a figurine of the Wicked Witch of the West, a Ouija board, and more.

As he reflects on the trip, he realizes that “it was me.” He hears laughter and turns around, yelling at what he finds behind him.
