You have a great reaction to this. It feels natural .

@LuxersMultiverse2090 thank you, i appreciate that because sometimes it feels like I miss some small but important details that connect the story. I get caught up elsewhere lol, but it's good to know it comes off natural. Thank you for watching and commenting 💕

not you clocking billy made the road in 4:45 😂

[@briianasimone]

@newramantics13 girllll you saw my rant 😭😭😭 that boy had too many trinkets and stuff in his room for it not to mean anything!!! I can't believe one of my theories were right among all of the wrong ones. Thank you for watching and commenting 💕

[@penguin50279]

billy could read minds in wandavision as well.

[@briianasimone]

Lol yes 😅😅😅 when Randell said that, i said wow... I completely forgot that

[@ParticleZon]

But he couldn't read Agatha's. Neither could Wanda. "My thoughts are not available to you, toots!"

[@emilyk5168]

I think Billy did open the Road, because it was blue light when the door appeared. But Agatha said it changes for the Coven so maybe this is just Billy’s version?

[@briianasimone]

Ouuuu I like that. It would tie that ballad back in and make Billy apart of the coven when he's been stressing that he's not?!

[@luishp3]

Maybe the poster is just another nod to Wizard of Oz, just like one of Herb's lines on the first episode ("She's really most sincerely dead"), or Rio's little dance when she first entered the road.

[@imthestein]

Bar Mitzvahs are often themed and if you look at the invites William Kaplan had a magical theme. I think William was picked for Billy (by the universe at large) because he was so similar already so was the perfect vessel

[@briianasimone]

Yessss i agree, Billy and William are so similar as people. Thank you for watching and commenting 💕

[@dafr3ak]

I believe he did too, that’s why we get those clips of him having an encounter with them all prior to him going to Agatha. The movie posters and her mentioning that he’s so dramatic like his mother and points to the trees like Wanda in MoM.

[@briianasimone]

Okay so maybe I was onto something!! The episode was kinda light, but if you looked deeper, they told us a lot with what they showed us. Thank you for watching and commenting 💕

[@dafr3ak]

@@briianasimone ofc love your reactions to the show.

[@ParticleZon]

I'm enjoying your reactions a lot. You watch carefully and connect strongly to the story. 💜 "I wonder what she's actually covered in." It was chocolate pudding mixed with stuff to adjust color/consistency. "Were her eyes watery?" Someone asked Jac Schaeffer about this in an interview: "...with an actor as gifted as Kathryn, yeah, you get kind of everything, and you are afforded the opportunity to shape the narrative based on the beauty that she gives. And I wanted the tears, because to me, I feel that moment is about her beholding his potential. I mean, I think it’s about her seeing this powerful witch in front of her. And you know, all she did with Wanda, once Wanda knew who she was, all they did was fight. And so, at this point in the narrative, there’s conflict between Agatha and Billy, but they’re standing there and they’re talking, and I think she is just enraptured by who he is."

[@briianasimone]

Thank you so much for watching 💕 and yes!! After the show ended i went and watched or read more interviews with Jac Schaeffer, so it was fun to learn her interpretation of the show and learning and Kathryn's interpretation of Agatha!!

[@elusivo3347]

So basically, what Lilia just did after William left her tent was cast the sigil. Meaning all along who casted the sigil on Billy/Teen redacting his name was Lilia. But what I find interesting is that before doing the sigil and forgetting what she did as sigils work on the witches who casted them too (as confirmed by Agatha back in episode 4), is that Lilia seems to have perfect control over her divination and magic compared to seeing her now who’s often saying things in and out of time between the future and past now. Edit: I’m curious to what Lilia saw when reading William’s fortune as she says his life is split into two, one for and Billy who occupies his body later on.

[@briianasimone]

Yes it completely makes sense that Lilia forgot she cast the sigil, but I'm curious to know if she forgot the whole interaction or just the sigil part. I'm inclined to think the whole interaction because she didn't seem like she recognized him with Agatha. And you're so right about her having better control, but then again that may be because she's in a controlled setting where woo woo stuff wouldn't look strange to the naked eye. Hmmm so many questions lol 😩

[@elusivo3347]

@@briianasimone Considering we now know Billy is out looking for Tommy, his brother. I think deep down, he is hoping by the end of the Road, he could potentially bring his entire family back: Wanda, Vision AND Tommy together.

[@briianasimone]

@elusivo3347 i agree, i was saying in the comments like week that he could probabaly bring his whole family back. Wanda did it, so he could probably do it better tbh

[@WtfShontae]

I love your reactions so far keep up the great work queen I’ll be here for the rest of these reactions 🫶🏾 love your energy!

[@briianasimone]

That means a lot, thank you!!! I really appreciate you for watching and commenting 🥹💕

[@JeronisLeror]

The twist of Lilia sigiling him, we did NOT see coming. Something tells us that us being wrong about that is important and will come back later. Also, canonically, yes she IS this bad with names of non-magic/non-cosmic persons.

[@briianasimone]

@@JeronisLeror right!!!!! I didn't see it coming, but it added more depth to the show. I can't wait for the rest of the trials now that the mystery of Teen is over

[@normaladjacent]

The mid-season trailer showed Lilia and Jen looking muddy in what looked like a cave, I think they’re underground and will probably reemerge in the next episode like Agatha. 👀 I’m not sure if Billy is powerful enough to construct a whole fake Witches’ Road, but I do think he helped open the door. I remain skeptical about Agatha having walked the Road too lol.

[@briianasimone]

Ahhh okay, that does make more sense considering Agatha wasn't cast off the road. But ugh idk what to think about Billy and his powers. He's able to do so much, but that's only if he actually did and maybe he didn't, but there's also a huge possible he did 😩😭😭😭 we'll just have to see I guess

[@SW-lx3lu]

Agree. I think we are going to find out she lied about walking the road and also about some of her “evil” past bc it pushes people away and keeps her from getting close enough to be hurt or hurt someone else with. Cus I keep thinking of the unseen trailer quote where he asks why she lets people believe those things about her

[@oliviafrancis-g7y]

When I saw the reveal I was shocked. Literally for 2 days and this episode was really good. We got bohnered 😭💀

[@briianasimone]

I was shocked, too!!! For people (me 🙋🏾‍♀️) who doesn't know much, I loved how they toyed with us about Billy's reveal. This episode was really good!!! I'm happy Billy got a whole episode from his perspective

[@mayabarnes5973]

I love your reaction video! This is exactly how I responded to it lol.

[@briianasimone]

Yesss the episode was so cute with Billy and his bf and i think i picked up on the subtle hints they were dropping, but I'm not sure 😅. You're so sweet!!!! Thank you so much for watching, sis. I really appreciate it 🫶🏾💕

[@Ememem8722]

In the comics, Agatha always mispronounces Tommy's name as Toby. This joke was adapted by Marvel from the comics.

[@briianasimone]

Ohhh that's actually cute then. That's cool that they added that for the comic book fans. Thank you for watching and commenting 💕

[@dragonseerYT]

Billy was the last person on the list of witches Lilia gave Agatha imo. because his boyf texted him saying he loves his black heart, and if the theory of Rio being Death is true, then imo it wouldn't make sense for her to be the last witch on the list, so I think Billy was the witch symbolized by the black heart on the list Lilia gave Agatha

[@jondavwal13]

Billy was the black heart in Lilia's notes. She couldn't write his name, but that is how his bf refers to him. He was always in the coven. Rio is not. She is death.

[@briianasimone]

@jondavwal13 ohhhh the text!!! Lmfaooo i was caught up in the cute moment to catch that. It's funny what things I notice and don't notice 😅 thank you for watching and commenting 💕

[@MattPerk7]

I'm guessing that means he's a green witch

[@MattPerk7]

I don't think any of us had Lilia being the one to cast the sigil on our Bingo cards

[@briianasimone]

Not at all!! I still thought it was going to be Billy himself, but I love how they tied it into Billy, finding his coven intentionally and unintentionally

[@jondavwal13]

Wanda is coming back. A Scarlet Witch movie confirmed. This is all about Wanda in the end and setting up the Young Avengers.

[@Persephone_Personified]

I love when Lillian said Billy Kaplin is a “good egg”, it’s bc he’s a shell for Wiccan. Which is why she sigils him. That way no witch can harm him. And I used to watch New Rockstars until it caused so many fandoms to expect waaaaay to much from movies and tv. Films/Movies shouldn’t be Easter egg hunts. If you’re reacting to this show I wouldn’t watch breakdown channels. I’ve stopped watching them completely and TV is so much more enjoyable again. Happy Thursday

[@briianasimone]

Yessss i love that the shell was a metaphor for what was about to happen with to William. Same, I had to stop for this week. New Rockstars are so helpful to me as someone who doesn't know much about the Maximoff family and this latter half of the MCU because i haven't been paying attention since Wandavision 😅. But all the theories were clouding my mind of what story the show wanted to tell, so I put it down for this week. Not everything will be cannon so I won't stress out about not knowing everything. This is both Billy and Agatha's introduction to the MCU so it's not like I'm missing out on a ton of info. I can just learn on the way

[@ParticleZon]

@@briianasimone I've been enjoying watching reactors to Agatha All Along so I went back and watched some reactions to Wandavision. It kind of made me mad that a number of people were disappointed in the ending because the show didn't deliver on theories certain comics nerds made up based on a single word in a random episode and then repeated over and over until everyone was saying "Mephisto". Wandavision was such a perfect, self-contained, beautiful story with a poignant end - that left some people disappointed because of nothing to do with the show. I will look something up on a wiki sometimes, but I'm always very aware that the MCU is not the comics and expecting details based on comics knowledge is not reliable. "Let them cook."

[@SW-lx3lu]

8:55 🤭

[@SW-lx3lu]

I think he just helped them open it. Cus otherwise I don’t see how he gets Tommy back on a made up road. But we know he’s the one who opened it from the promo pics

[@gagapandega1668]

By the way, pay attention to his chat. Billy is the blackheart, not Rio. Lillia couldn't write his name due to the sigil.

[@briianasimone]

OH WAITTTTTTTTT. You're absolutely right, how big brainded of you because I didn't put two and two together. That was a good bait and switch by them. Thank you for watching and commenting 💕
