Agatha All Along: What is the significance behind the Wiccan crown? Explained
Agatha All Along delivered an exciting plot twist by revealing the long-held secret of Teen's identity at the end of the show's fifth episode. The fantasy series stars Kathryn Hahn as Agatha Harkness, who reprises her role from the 2021 series, WandaVision.
Created by Jac Schaeffer, this series is set three years after the events of WandaVision, which starred Elizabeth Olsen and Paul Bettany in lead roles.
In Agatha All Along, the titular witch decides to go on the Witches' Road to restore her magical powers, after losing it at the end of WandaVision. She invites Jennifer Kale, Alice Wu-Gulliver, Sharon Davis, Rio Vidal, and Lilia Calderu to form a coven and accompany her to face the dangerous trials of the Witches' Road.
Moreover, she meets a mysterious goth named 'Teen' who decides to join her on the quest. He is unable to divulge any personal details about himself as he has a sigil placed on him. As such, Teen's identity has been a major plot point of the series, giving rise to several fan theories.
But, the Wiccan crown seen on Teen's head in the final moments of Agatha All Along episode 5 confirms his identity as Billy Kaplan aka Wiccan.
How was Teen's identity revealed in Agatha All Along?
Agatha All Along's episode 5 titled, Darkest Hour / Wake Thy Power, marks a crucial point in the series as it finally reveals Teen's identity. The episode, aired on October 9, 2024, features the infamous witch and her coven facing their third trial along the Witches' Road.
Dressed in 1980s attire, the group is tasked with summoning the dead by using an Ouija board. The ghost that appears is Agatha's mother, Evanora Harkness, who was killed by Agatha centuries ago in 1693.
She possesses Agatha's body and, in a bid to drive out Evanora's spirit, Alice blasts Agatha with her power. But, the wicked witch steals Alice's powers and ends up killing her in the process.
Feeling angered by Agatha, Teen conjures up blue-colored magic and buries Agatha with the remaining witches, Jennifer and Lilian, in the mud.
It is then that Teen is shown with a blue crown on his head that is reminiscent of the Scarlet Witch aka Wanda Maximoff.
Teen's identity was shrouded in mystery from the beginning of the series. Plus, the sigil prevented him from revealing his name and personal details to others. At one point in the series, Agatha and the audience were led to believe that Teen could be Agatha's son, Nicholas Scratch.
However, that theory was debunked when Rio told Agatha that "he's not your boy."
Everything to know about Wiccan from the Marvel comics
As per Marvel comics, Wiccan is the superhero alter ego of Billy Kaplan, one of Wanda's twin sons. He is a member of the Young Avengers team and his magical powers include blasting energy and manipulating reality.
Billy has a twin brother named Tommy Shepherd aka Speed, who is also a Young Avenger. Furthermore, he also has a boyfriend named Hulkling aka Teddy Altman. It remains to be seen if Hulkling will make an appearance in Agatha All Along.
Billy's origin story is quite remarkable. In the comic books, Scarlet Witch creates her twin sons, Billy and Tommy, by using two lost souls and her reality-warping powers. Unbeknownst to her, these souls are parts of the hell lord, Mephisto. He reabsorbs them back thus, effectively killing Billy and Tommy.
Nevertheless, these souls are reincarnated as Billy Kaplan and Tommy Shepherd. They are born into different families and reconnect in their youth, after meeting each other in the Young Avengers team.
At the start of Agatha All Along, Teen joins Agatha on the Witches' Road which rewards the winners with what they desire most. In light of this revelation, Teen may seek out Agatha to travel the Witches' Road with him so that at the end of it, he can bring back his dead mother, Scarlet Witch.
The latest episodes of Agatha All Along premiere on Disney Plus every Wednesday at 9 pm ET.
