Warning: This article contains SPOILERS for the book Agatha All Together.
We’re already halfway there Agatha all together9 episodes in, it’s becoming increasingly difficult to ignore how well it’s setting up Scarlet Witch’s return to the MCU. And it can’t happen soon enough. MCU Avenger Elizabeth Olsen has been dead for two years since the end of Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness, but there was always a path back to life (especially since we never saw what happened to her body).
Agatha all together Apparently, it was revealed that her corpse was part of Agatha’s body. Mare from Easttown style of the opening sequence, but it was a projection of Agatha’s twisted mind. And the longer the show goes on, especially after it’s revealed that Tin is a Wiccan. Agatha all together The ending of Episode 5 – all the more it seems that this fantasy was preparing a grand finale in which Wanda is resurrected. More importantly, the series is already subtly working to restore Scarlet Witch’s reputation, with a major moment in episode five talking about her inherent goodness.
Scarlet Witch’s name has been dragged through the mud in the MCU
Wanda has sinned more than she has sinned.
Since the appearance of Scarlet Witch in the MCU for real Avengers: Age of Ultron, her storyline made her a morally complex character. Her origin story involved dramatic trauma – having Stark Tech weapons kill her parents – and exploitation – when she became a Hydra test subject. The version we were first introduced to, filled with rage and a burning desire for revenge, made sense, and yet, despite her mistreatment throughout the MCU, we were all told to believe. Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madnessthe conviction that she is a villain.
Even after Age of Ultronwho also saw her brother killed, Wanda was repeatedly injured. She was imprisoned for accidentally killing civilians in Captain America: Civil Warat the beginning, ostracized for being a potential threat, and then denied a happy ending when Vision is killed twice in Avengers: Infinity War. From there her breakdown in WandaVision added depth, but Multiverse of Madness portrayed her as an unintelligent and selfish killer without satisfactorily exploring her trauma.
Agatha continually confirms that Wanda is not inherently evil.
There was always goodness behind Wanda’s trauma.
It’s been a long time, but Agatha all together subtly restores some of Scarlet Witch’s inherent goodness. When it turns out that Tin is a Wiccan, Agatha goads him, saying: “you are just like your mother“as an attempt at insult. This occurs when the Teen gives up the idea of ​​killing people for power, which Agatha and her surviving coven members believe is simply the fact that he is a witch. despite his own expressed desire to complete the Witch Road for the sake of power.

Saying that Tin is like his mother due to his reluctance to accept the vile truth about witchcraft, Agatha indirectly refers to the Scarlet Witch’s inherent kindness.. The teenager says directly: “What does it mean to be a witch? Killing people to achieve your own goals? No. Not for me.“And while this is exactly what Wanda did when she became lost to the Darkhold, Agatha emphasizes the fundamental truth that Wanda is not like her, or even the other members of the Coven.
“You’re just like your mother” can have two meanings
Is Agatha about to reveal another big teen twist?
There’s actually more to Agatha’s harsh insult that Tin is just like his mother, if the theory that he’s been manipulating things all along is to be believed. It seems that it is no coincidence that Tin was instrumental in the discovery of key evidence during all three trials: it seems that he simply happened to be in the right place at the right time. What if he knows exactly where to look, because he is the one who pulls the strings, turns things around WandaVisionhistory upside down?

From Tin’s perspective, his reluctance to embrace evil would necessarily make him similar to Wanda, who ultimately fought back against the Darkhold and allowed her core goodness to triumph when she sacrificed herself to destroy it. But from Agatha’s point of view, if Tin is behind the trials and leads her to the Witches’ Road because she knows what it takes to get to the end, he would have been no better than the witch who imprisoned her for three years. Now Agatha believes that Tin is evil, and the question we need to answer is how aware he was that the Road was going to take the lives of some of the test participants.
In this regard, if Tin had unwittingly doomed Sharon and Alice to death in Agatha all togetherhe takes after his mother, and it is how he reacts that will determine whether he is truly Scarlet Witch’s heir. Let’s hope that an attack of conscience will not prevent him from finding a way to revive his mother, because The MCU needs the return of Scarlet Witch.
