The shocking reveal came at the end of the episode when Billy used his magic to send Agatha (Kathryn Hahn), Lilia Calderu (Patti LuPone), and Jennifer Hale (Sasheer Zamata) into a mud pit moments after the titular character killed a member of their group. A blue crown in the style of Scarlet Witch’s red crown appears on Billy’s head.

Locke has known about this secret for two years, telling Entertainment Weekly that he feels like he can breathe again. With the secret out about his character’s identity, Locke says the series “starts getting real.”

“The show starts with Billy being very much the familiar, the secondary to all the witches,” Locke told EW. “Now, we know he is also a witch, and that changes things. Also, we now know that he has the ability to cause harm to them. Therefore, he is now the most powerful person on the Road. What does that change in the dynamic of the group, and how does that change the future of those relationships?”

Locke is also now the most featured LGBTQ+ character in the MCU. The Agatha All Along midseason trailer confirms the Billy Maximoff reveal and previews the final four episodes. Billy’s true motivations for why he’s on the Road will be revealed over the course of the final four episodes.

There is an inherent danger in making a show like The Penguin. The series has to humanize a despicable villain, Oz Cobb (Colin Farrell), and make him a character that viewers want to follow for eight hours. At the same time, it has to make sure not to humanize him so much that it ends up removing the character's villainous edge. That's a balance that certain superhero movies and TV shows have struggled to strike over the years.
