5 big questions we have to answer in the Agatha All Around Finale

The end of the witch’s road has seemingly come for “Agatha All Along” — unless the show gets a surprise second-season renewal — with the finale Wednesday night on Disney+. And going into that, a few big questions remain.

Let’s jump in first. At this point, only Agatha (Kathryn Hahn), Billy (Joe Locke), and Jen (Sasheer Zamata) are left in the coven, with the others having died in previous episodes. Death itself is also still on the table, as we officially discovered last week that Rio Vidal (Aubrey Plaza) is in fact Lady Death.

By our count, there are two more trials for the group to pass, assuming Rio gets its own trials. And if/when that happens, what comes next? We will certainly find out, but first let’s see the answers that we definitely want to see in the episodes.

1. Is Tommy alive?

We discovered in episodes 5 and 6 that Billy is actually on the road to find his brother Tommy. According to Billy, he senses Tommy out there but just can’t find him. That said, Billy is still figuring out his powers.

So, is Tommy really alive somehow? Did he also find a new body outside the hex? Its mechanics will no doubt be intriguing when he’s around, but right now it’s still an ‘if’.

2. Is Rio really trying to kill Agatha?

To say that Rio and Agatha have a complicated relationship might be an understatement. In episode 1, Rio storms in is called to Westview and back into Agatha’s life. Once Agatha is finally free from the spell, Rio attacks her at home and wishes her all kinds of death (which makes more sense, now that we know her true identity).

But in Episode 4, we learn that the women are exes, and that Rio hurt Agatha a long time ago simply because she was doing her job. Was that job necessary for Agatha’s son Nicholas Scratch? Who knows (probably us, by the end of the evening). However, there is clearly still affection between the two, as we see shortly afterwards in a private moment between them.

When Agatha’s mother tries to claim her daughter during her trial, Rio immediately jumps to Agatha’s defense, wanting to protect her. So yeah, it’s complicated.

The question is: does Rio actually want Agatha dead? Or maybe she’s been protecting her for centuries?

3. Will Agatha get her powers back?

Agatha’s journey on the road, at least on the surface, has always been about getting her powers back. Assuming she survives this whole endeavor, will she get her purple back at the end of the road? Is that actually what she really wants?

This is the key to Agatha, and we need to know it!

4. Who will come out alive?

Yes, unfortunately we had to rule above “assuming she survives” because the road has proven to be deadly. According to Agatha herself, only one person survived the last time with her (many assume it was Rio, but we don’t know for sure).

So far we’ve lost Mrs. Hart (Debra Jo Rupp), Alice Wu-Gulliver (Ali Ahn), and Lilia Calderu (Patti LuPone). Rest in peace, you absolute legends. At the end of her trial, Lilia noted that Jen is the way forward, but will she survive? Will any of them?

5. Is Teenager William or Billy?

During Lilia’s trial last week, Teen asked an important question: “Am I William or am I Billy?” He has been struggling with his identity for years and has few memories of the boys.

As we understand it, William died in that car accident and Billy entered his body. But is that permanent? Figuring out his true, current self is huge for Teen, and hopefully we’ll get an answer in the finale.

“Agatha All Around” is now streaming on Disney+.
