The Marvel Cinematic Universe is full of mystery again, and Agatha all alongThe latest episode provided additional clues to the true identity of Joe Locke’s teen character in the series. The story of the new series directly followed the events of WandaVision in original and unexpected ways and has adopted some of the show’s mystery box format. A number of questions have already emerged with the first three episodes of the series, and it seems likely that the show will lead to satisfying reveals during its run.
Agatha Harkness was an unusual character to build a show around. This character is typically used as a supporting player rather than the head of a titular series. Agatha debuted in the comics as the governess to Franklin Richards all the way back in 1970 And has continued in the comics ever since. It seems that components of her study are used in Agatha all alongBut much of the show is a new invention. yet, Characters associated with Agatha are likely to appearsuggesting Tin’s true identity.
A witch puts a sigil on Tin to hide him from witch folk
Tin is unable to say his name to Agatha all along
Tin’s identity has not been revealed, but from recent episodes it seems that the character is deeply connected to someone with incredible powers of witchcraft. In the last episode, the rest of Agatha’s coven sees Tin’s inability to say his name explained, and it frightens them all tremendously. This clearly reveals that the seal that was placed on Tin comes from a witchAnd is an intentional tool that will cause disturbances to the group.
Being hidden from witches is an essential component of Tin’s character, even when he tries to participate in their actions along the witches’ road. This suggests that Tin is perhaps being used in ways that even he does not recognize. Clearly, someone is trying to strengthen his identity, although it does not seem to be Teen himself. This suggests that perhaps Tin’s identity is being used as a pawn in the plans of someone far more sinister.
Tin says “a lot happened” to him at 13
Tin is 16 inches Agatha all alongWhere he vaguely refers to events that happened when he was 13. He says that “a lot” Happened during this period, which would have been three years earlier. considered WandaVision was three years ago, this suggests an interesting connection. After that, rumors that Tin could play one of Wanda’s children intensified. This seems quite likely, although there are also some issues with it, especially when considering the age of Wanda’s children.
First of all, Billy and Tommy do not experience aging in a normal way WandaVisionsuggesting that the timeline may not be relevant. They also do not seem to be 13 in the WandaVision series, being 10 in the season finale. In addition, their age can be modified by Agatha. After all that, as well as comments from Teen about his father loving his sous vide and his coming from Eastview, some of the details don’t line up with the theory.
Agatha would not recognize her own son, implying Tin is Nicholas Krats
Nicholas Krats is a terrifying villain in Marvel Comics
in Agatha all along Episode 3, Jennifer Kale reveals to Teen that Agatha traded her son, Nicholas Scratch, for the Darkhold. This says terrible things about Agatha, but it also suggests that there is still a connection between herself and her son that remains to be explored, not to mention that She wouldn’t recognize him after giving him up as a baby. It would be strange to introduce the details of her son without leading to a revelation of Nicholas Krats, because the villain is a significant character in Marvel comics and is linked to the Salem Seven.

With that said, this offer almost seems a little too obvious and too early in the season. It almost feels like an intentional misdirect, and it also doesn’t align with Tin’s actions or motivations. He seems quite ready to reveal himself to Agatha and the alliance, and it is only the sigil on him that stops him. While this may be a facade, it would be an odd choice to have Tin reveal himself to be Nicholas Krats.
Mephisto is mentioned, potentially connected to Tin
Mephisto is finally confirmed in the MCU
Agatha all along Finally confirmed the existence of Mephisto in the MCU with a candid comment from Jennifer Kale. Speaking to Tin, she warns him about trusting Agatha. Confirming Mephisto in the MCU is a huge addition to the universe, especially after the speculation that has swirled about the character ever since. WandaVision. If Mephisto is connected to this story, It could be through Tin’s character, who could be an agent of Mephisto.
With that said, Teen is nothing if not serious Agatha all along. If he is truly an evil force, and is aligned with the satanic figure of Mephisto, that would undo almost everything that has been shown about his character so far. A Heelturn by Teen is certainly not impossible, but it would reveal everything viewers know about the character as a facade. Although there may be connections between Tin and Mephisto, it is unlikely that Tin is actively working as a secret agent for the demonic force.

Rumors about Joe Locke’s role in Agatha all along have circulated since the actor was cast in the series. however, It seems that each possible role has both evidence to support it as well as reasons to doubt its validity. The fact is that the character of Tin will make the most sense for the story itself, although it is certainly fun to speculate. Whether Billy or Tommy Maximoff, Nicholas Scratch, an agent of Mephisto, or someone else entirely, the character was an excellent addition to Agatha all along.
