Key Points:
- Agatha All Along hints at Wanda Maximoff’s death but also raises the possibility that she may still be alive.
- Agatha and Rio’s rivalry stems from a deeper, unresolved issue tied to Agatha’s past power-stealing deeds.
- The mysterious Teen could be Nicholas Scratch, Agatha Harkness’ son, rather than Wanda’s son Billy Maximoff.
Marvel’s new series Agatha All Along brings back Agatha Harkness and continues exploring the aftermath of WandaVision. The biggest question fans have is about Wanda Maximoff’s fate. Is she truly dead after the events of Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness, or is she still alive, as the series seems to hint? From the very beginning,
What Does Agatha All Along Reveal About Wanda Maximoff’s Fate?
The fate of Wanda Maximoff, also known as the Scarlet Witch, is one of the biggest mysteries in Agatha All Along. After Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness, where Wanda sacrificed herself by bringing a mountain down on herself, many fans were left wondering if this was truly the end for the Scarlet Witch. Agatha All Along teases viewers with mixed signals—at times hinting that she is alive and at other times implying that she is very much dead.
Agatha Harkness, who plays a central role in the new series, has multiple conversations that suggest Wanda might still be alive. In one scene, Herb, a character in the detective show Agatha All Along, mentions that being crushed by such a huge force would kill anyone. Agatha, still hiding under her detective persona, cryptically replies that she “wouldn’t be so sure.” This subtle hint leaves viewers questioning if Wanda somehow survived the destruction.
Another key moment occurs when Rio, a character played by Aubrey Plaza, hints that the body found has two names on its toe tag, which could imply that neither witch, including Wanda, is truly dead. This adds another layer to the mystery, as it suggests Wanda’s death may not be what it appears to be.
Agatha herself mentions that Wanda’s body has been moved multiple times, raising further suspicions. Whether this means Wanda transported herself back home to Westview or someone else moved her remains unclear. The show even brings up a car with a bloody backseat, which could have some connection to Wanda. All these clues leave fans wondering: is Wanda truly dead, or is there more to her story?

Why Do Rio and Agatha Hate Each Other in Agatha All Along?
Another mystery in Agatha All Along revolves around the rivalry between Agatha and Rio. The show hints that most witches aren’t particularly fond of Agatha, primarily due to her power-stealing ways, which she used to drain the life force from her own mother and coven in 1693 (as seen in WandaVision). This history of betrayal likely contributes to the tension between Agatha and Rio, who seem to have a deeper, personal grudge against each other.
Rio plays a complex role in the series, helping free Agatha from Wanda’s spell but immediately turning against her afterward. This behavior raises questions about her true intentions. Why would Rio assist in freeing Agatha only to try and eliminate her afterward? The series hints that Rio’s disdain for Agatha goes beyond her past actions and power-grabbing behavior. However, Agatha All Along has yet to reveal the full backstory behind their rivalry, leaving this as one of the unresolved plotlines in the early episodes.
While Rio’s character doesn’t have a direct counterpart in the comics, her role in the MCU adds an intriguing dynamic. What makes this even more compelling is that Rio sends the Salem Seven, a group of seven powerful witches, after Agatha. This might indicate that Rio sees Agatha as a dangerous threat, but the show hasn’t fully explored this yet.

Who Is Agatha Harkness’ Child?
Another interesting aspect of Agatha All Along is Agatha’s connection to her mysterious child. During one scene in the first two episodes, Agatha, while still under Wanda’s spell, looks longingly into an empty bedroom that appears to have belonged to a child. In the comics, Agatha’s child, Nicholas Scratch, is an important figure and often depicted as a villain.
The series so far seems to be hinting at Nicholas Scratch’s existence without directly introducing him. In Marvel Comics, Nicholas Scratch is a major antagonist and one of Agatha’s biggest problems. He has a group of children known as the Salem Seven, who also appear in the comics as his followers. In the MCU, these characters might be getting a more fleshed-out role as part of Agatha’s story.
Fans have also speculated that the mysterious Teen, who accompanies Agatha and helps her with her new coven, might be her son, Nicholas Scratch, rather than Billy Maximoff (Wanda’s son). This theory gains more traction because the Teen, when asked why he seeks the “Witches’ Road,” says he’s looking for power. Nicholas Scratch’s hunger for power aligns with this, making him a likely candidate for the role.
Although the Teen’s true identity remains a mystery, the clues seem to suggest he could be Nicholas Scratch. If this is the case, it would tie back into Agatha’s storyline in a big way, further deepening her connection to the Salem Seven and other dark magic users.
