Agatha All Along Episode 5 Synopsis

Agatha Harkness Character Created by Stan Lee and artist Jack Kirby.

Creator and Showrunner: Jac Shaeffer

Episode Written by:

Episode Directed by: Rachel Goldberg

Summoning The Green Witch, Rio, to the Witches Road left a door open for Agatha's pursuers, The Salem Seven, to follow the coven.

Unwittingly they discuss Agatha’s murder of her coven and learn that she left their daughters alive and they are on a vendetta against her.

To escape the transforming hunters, the Teen again suggests using old magic. The coven taking to the skies on brooms.

But The Witches Road drags them back down for the next trial. A blood red trial for Agatha herself.

She must use a Ouija board to contact a spirit and learns that she must be punished before leaving. The ghost of Agatha’s mother tries to get the coven to kill Agatha as punishment and possesses her. Alice tries to give her coven mate some power to fight off the possession, but Agatha, almost unconsciously, drains Alice leaving her for dead.

While the Teen mourns Alice another ghost, Agatha’s son Nicolas Scratch, arrives as her real punishment calling on his mother to stop. With the task complete the remaining witches escape. 

But back on the road a repowered Agatha recognises the Teen. He reminds her of her mother, but she’s never seen him wearing a crown. But Lillia and Jennifer drag Agatha off the road to be buried as they turn towards the teen, but he is now a fully powered wiccan who pushes them off the road.  

But where is their Green Witch Rio? Will she be able to save them or will she even try?
