They said the sigil works on all witches. When Lilia slipped the sigil into his coat pocket, she immediately forgot about it.
hence the “what kid?” “i dont remember” lines that happen right after she puts the sigil in the coat pocket
I was going to make the same comment. The sigil works on all witches that's why Alice didn't recognize him either. The sigil was put on him before he "died".
This is so well done.I am getting so spoiled watching this, Fallout, and the Penguin...
Oh...and Loki...lol
Yup
Did you notice Billy's gesture of flipping his hood onto his head? It is exactly the same gesture that Wanda used when departing Westview.
Like mother, like son!❤
yeah he gives off early Wanda vibes on purpose (AoU & Civil War)
@@omarslayzI almost forgot that Wanda was also a goth in AoU 😂
That’s actually Joe Locke singing in Hebrew in the opening scene. He has a great voice and was in Sweeney Todd on Broadway earlier this year.
@@jcs1025 OMG a person can have multiple talents??????
But can he dance?
Has to be a triple threat.
@@MontgomeryWenisOMG did they say they couldn’t?????
Billy is technically around 3 years old so the Ouija board pamphlet saying "ages three and up" is especially funny to me.
The sigil doesn’t effect what Billiam says, it stops witches from perceiving what he says.
Billiam 😂
Pretty sure it also works on him. He couldnt remember who he was. He couldnt remember being Billy nor William. He only remembered Tommy.
He just figured out he is Billy from mr bohner.
@@mirzu42 I don’t thiiiink the sigil is why he doesn’t remember?
@@mailyak442 why else wouldnt he remember either of them?
I might be looking at this too logically but shouldnt he remember atleast one of the two?
Or how does anyone remember anything if memory isnt a part of your soul or body? He has Billys soul but williams body. My logic is that he should remember atleast one.
Why wouldnt the sigil work on him too? He is a witch and the sigil works on all witches including its caster.
Well I guess we get the answer in a few hours when ep7 drops as he destroyed the sigil last episode.
@@mirzu42because he went through severe trauma. It was explained that the sigil was a redaction spell that prevented other witches from learning his identity. It was never said that it impacted his ability to perceive his identity. Plus it impacts both of his identities, William and Billy. Which is why Agatha couldn’t hear him say either name. So it wouldn’t make sense that the sigil would impact his ability to remember who he was.
Black heart, definitely him. Without being able to write his name, Lilia drew the heart.
That makes so much sense
Oh of course! I totally missed that!
Billy has a black heart earing in one ear for most of the show; I only noticed it after this episode.
But he isn't a green witch?
It was a possibility, but apparently not the situation, based on this week's EP.
I find it funny how so many people overlook the scene with Boyf. Teen tells him his powers basically activates when he’s around people who he basically has deep emotional feelings towards. Since episode 3, they showed him and Alice bonding the most outside of Agatha. So when she dies and seeing how everyone was treating her death like it was just another day, the emotions overwhelmed him and caused his powers to fully manifest. I believe it’s also why Agatha taunts him by saying you can’t even use your powers without throwing it a tantrum. Because since the accident they only activated when he was feeling emotionally overwhelmed.
I mean sure ,people he really cares about,,,,,,,,, including ralph for some reason 😂, like talk about a plot hole. Im assuming he can ready anyones mind without having to have a deep bond
@@skyraven9079 Ralph was his uncle during Wanda and Vision. He is basically his family because of Wanda's spell, thats why he was able to read his thoughts, he does have a connection with his uncle.
Smh. You are the one overlooking things. What he said is when people are having intense feelings.
Or do you think he had deep emotional feelings towards his ”parents” he has never even met?
Or about this random reddit guy (for him anyways he cant remember he was his fake uncle)?
@@mirzu42 He said it activates around people HE feels for, not the other way round. And the show clearly shows he's misinterpreting this, as we see his powers activating when he's emotional (scared, angry, hot, ...).
It’s sad that the Kaplan’s lost their son and don’t know about it for three years but if you think about it, when Billy revived in William’s body and yelled out for “Tommy”, Mrs. Kaplan probably misheard it as her son yelling out “Mommy” after he had been in a car accident.
Ik 😭
I know this wasn’t the point but it makes me think of people who are in a vegetative state, like the way some people say everything that made their loved one who they were was gone and only a “husk” remained.
She wasn’t in the car i thought?
Jen said that the Sigil hides Billy from “witch folk” so Alice,Lillia, and Jen wouldn’t remember who Billy is or if they met him at all
Yes, including Wanda.
I also wonder if Agatha had shown Billy the list of names, would he have seen his name or since he's also a witch would he have seen a black heart?
Came here to say this!
I also think that when Lillia told William to “enjoy the now baby” she knew he was gonna die and wanted him to enjoy his last party 😭😭
@@strangeravensupremeno cus lilia wrote it. I just realized this myself I was thinking maybe if he was allowed to read it until I remembered lila wrote it with her own hand
WandaVision and Agatha All Along also felt like actual TV series, with correct episode structure, while most of the other MCU Disney+ series are basically overlong movies chopped into pieces.
That fact alone already started WV and AAA on much better foundations, and they built up from those.
It really is sad that arguably the campiest stories the MCU has told in series form are also the best, aside from Loki. This show is so cheesy, but I'd rather watch it a dozen more times than ever setting eyes on FatWS, Moon Knight, or Hawkeye again.
That interrogation scene with Agatha and Teen was hilarious 🤣💯💯
Presumably the sigil would have prevented even Wanda from identifying him, which is probably a contributing factor to her going insane
But she couldn’t find Toby either.
@@Justanotherconsumer Who knows if there's anything to find
Super-impressed by how, in a very short amount of time, the show made me care about William and his parents and made him feel real and broke my heart at what happened to them. Amazing acting and such a well written couple of scenes of an important moment in their lives. They carried this on with the few scenes with boyf to make me invested in that relationship too! My three favourite MCU TV shows so far have been WandaVision, AAA and Hawkeye and I think all of them had a balance between the very human moments and the over the top craziness, rather than getting lost in making stuff happen.
My favourite comics have always been the ones that at their heart are personal stories in a larger than life universe and they are nailing it with this.
👏🏼
His name is Eddie not Boyf. Boyf is short for boyfriend.
William’s death hit me so hard. Joe Locke, the scriptwriter, the director hit it out of the park
@@galenthom BOYF is more fun tho 😍
The fact that you guys haven’t watched Heartstopper yet is astounding
Right?!
They are in for a ride if they react to it!
they'll need more Kleenex the further they go - the tears get really flowing by series 3
Billy is technically 3 years old in existence. That’s why the Ouija Board said “for ages 3 and up”.
My theories on what my happen
Now Lilia will remember so I wonder what she will say to Billy. The Blackheart was Billy but because of the Sigil she couldn’t write his name.
Rio now has two people she wants Agatha and Billy. Billy cheated death and Rio is gonna want to collect him so Agatha is going to protect. There is also some comic Wiccan lore I can see them hinting or revealing some of it in the fight with Rio.
NOW MY BIGGEST THEORY: did Billy accidental create this version of the Witches’ Road. We havnt been on the real one this entire time.
🙌🏼
I’ve also seen a theory this witches’ road is like Billy’s hex - there’s a LOT of stuff from his room and William’s interests in the road
I think y'all would love heartstopper! It's an incredible piece of queer media that tries its best to show queerness in a hopeful and positive light while not being scared to touch on the darker and more difficult aspects of being openly queer.
The sigil prevents any witch from being able to identify him.
I’m loving the comfy seats for you. Glad you both said Joe Locke crushed it, because he really did. Obviously the scriptwriters, director and Joe wanted to differentiate William from Teen, but I was shocked just how different William came across right from the start from Teen. And I didn’t expect to get so upset when William died, but it happened.
I love that the editors chose a couple of actors’ starting to break up scenes to keep in the show to serve the story. When Agatha and Teen visit Lilia’s shop, and Lilia starts making noises to indicate she’s looking into the future for her customers, they chose the take where Kathryn and Joe are struggling not to break into giggles. Joe was confused they kept that scene, because they shot so many takes where they didn’t break. But it works perfectly, because Teen, and obviously Agatha, spot the charlatinism of unnecessary dramatics, but are deciding to play along, but Lilia was so hilariously bad, which is why Agatha and Teen almost break in-universe. (Lilia being hilariously bad is part of being a real clairvoyant disguised as a con fortuneteller. People who don’t fall for stupid shit aren’t worth wasting time on hoping for a big payout. Con artists want the uneducated, credulous or stupid people who don’t spot your fakery right away, like e-mails about money written in bad English)
And then we get Billy almost breaking about Agatha shouting about poking the bear, and it’s so hilarious. Billy valiantly trying to play along with this madwoman trapped in a spell.
You HAVE to watch Heartstopper and Red White and Royal Blue, because they both blew up massively all around the world, including nations where homosexual acts are illegal. The sheer numbers indicate huge numbers of straight viewership, and it’s obvious - well people straight out say - both these shows are emotional comfort places. R,W&RB is such an extreme happy place that many people are addicted. So many UA-cam commenters report rewatching dozens of times. “35”, “44”, “over 50 times now”, “I watched it 3 times last Saturday”. Heartstopper is just cute and wholesome on a level rarely seen in TV. These teens are good communicators, and so many problems that arise get resolved by the next episode where other shows would drag them out for the drama.
R,W&RB is a progressive person’s political fantasy. Absolute comfort watch when the USA is so stressful right now and your culture/politics bleed all over the world as the dominant culture of the dominant Lingua Franca and the largest Super Power. AND queer people get our first Hollywood/Lifetime standard ROM Com with a guaranteed happy ending. I actually think we’re seeing a cultural inflection point crystallised by these two shows. The money is already speaking. Amazon commissioned a sequel to RW&RB even though the book doesn’t have a sequel. Queer happiness, normalization, and ROLE MODELLING to both queer and straight children and adults is In.
I thought the reason Billy attacked Jen and Lilia was because of their behaviour during the trial and how they didn't seem to give a damn about Alice's death. Teen develops a really lovely relationship with Alice on the Road and she seemed to be the only one who put herself out there to protect the others. Alice stopped Teen in the first trial from drinking wine and they had that Cool Aunt and Queer Nephew moment. She also made sure Sharon wasn't left behind. She performed the protection circles during her trial for Jen and Lilia, and was the first to notice Teen was injured, and she died saving Agatha when the others didn't care. I really hope Alice comes back. She is a total hero. ❤
That’s what I think too
No its because they all turned their backs against Agatha. In all other trials they worked as a team Agatha included. When they were supposed to help Agatha they all turned their backs on her despite Billy trying to keep the coven together.
You can tell that from his reaction to Jen saying ”familiars don’t get a vote”.
I dont think that they didnt care about her death. You can see they were also in shock.
Or maybe you meant this by ”their actions during the trial”
Oh come on, it's not even half as complicated. He simply wanted to be alone after throwing Agatha into the mud. He needed some time to sit and think, like people do when their temper tantrum runs out.
That car crash was a real ~heartstopper~
Anyone else noticed how Billy says he can hear the intense thoughts/feelings of people he *cares a lot about* and he then hears Ralph’s thoughts? I think that even though he doesn’t remember him /their time together, his importance is still there. Enough for Billy to access his thoughts. The only thing I wonder about was why Billy didn’t take notice of it when it happened. It should have raised a flag or something, no?
Could be, but he also adds that his powers kick in when he's experiencing strong emotions.
Or maybe he just really cares about hearing Ralph’s thoughts? Since he wants the info? Idk it threw me as well
It's worth noting that description of his powers is his own deduction from experiencing it. He doesn't have control over his powers so they only manifest when he's highly emotional and, over the last three years, that's only happened when he's around people he cares about. His powers *do* work on people he doesn't care about, they just haven't worked that way enough for him to notice.
He said when people are feeling intense feelings.
He probably said the he cares about thing to make it sound more normal or something.
Or do you really think he cared about these 2 random people (to him) at the hospital? Like he doesent know them at all. William is dead.
+ in pretty sure it was established in wandavision that Billy can hear everyones thoughts.
Yeah, Heartstopper is great. It’s positively gay (both in meaning extreme ness and it being positive. Some dislike it cos they can’t handle gay media with happiness in it and crave tragedy)
Fun Fact most of the interrogation scene and the joke about the closet were improv by the actors, Jo confirm it in a interview. Also the Sigil works for all the Witches not only for Agatha.
YES #Heartstoppr is EXCELENCE #JoeLocke 1st ever acting job , Agatha being only his 2nd Youll see more of his PHENOMINAL BRILLIANCE there , 3rd season started weeks after Agatha
When you have all of this show's practical sets, you don't need much CGI.
“I don’t wanna go back in the closet” I LOST IT 🤣
Yeah, that was hilarious.
Guys. It’s Lilia not Lilian or Lilliana lmaooo
I’ve heard many reactors say different variations of the names for some reason 😂
Rippp
Yep. Liliana is our necromantic queen planeswalker.
SHA-RON.
The showrunner said there is a deleted scene where Alice talks with William's dad and she's unable to write William's name on her note book
So the sigil works on every witches the moment Lilia put it in the jacket pocket
Why they not keep that? It fit well.
@@randompeople465 Probably for time crunch reasons. They had to cut it to add/keep a different scene that was more significant, probably.
But yeah I agree it would have been a really cool moment to see and it would have solidified that the sigil is working... But we kind of already knew that it was...So I guess it wasn't an absolutely vital scene to keep.
Lilia wrote a black heart because the Sigil didn't allow her to know his name, even in visions.
Also, the reason he attacked them all, on the Witches' Road, is because of what Agatha did and the other two just accepted it, as if it's normal, and he didn't like it.
I knew I was Gen Z when hearing Nerdy reference Watergate made me finally understand an obscure Fairly Odd Parents reference LOL
For me, it made me understand the Deep Wang scene in Transformers 3
The sigil prevents *witches* from perceiving his identity. Non-witches, and he himself, can still do so.
Also, the "Total loser? Or totally lying? Let's find oOoOoOuUuUuUuUuTtTtTt!" delivery is so amazing 😂
The sigil just works for all witches! They cannot hear Billy’s name or anything about him :)
And for Billy himself. He couldnt remember anything from either one of his lives.
He literally had to learn everything from other people.
@@mirzu42 I don’t think that’s from the sigil because he could hear and say his name. He can’t remember anything from either lives because of how William died and Billy had been in the hex and under Wanda’s control his entire life before his soul took over William’s body.
@@Rose67-_- hmm. But he should still have Billys memories. Everyone from westview remembers everything.
The real question is what part of you does the rembering if not the soul nor body.
Yeah Lilia wrote the sigil and immediately forgot him. So any witch is affected. Which means, Lilia's sigil CAUSED THE WHOLE PLOT OF DOCTOR STRANGE 2.
Weirdly... Marvel TV does best when it goes scary/horror/dark... Werewolf By Night, Moon Knight, Agatha, etc. are all top tier productions.
Plus Loki. I love Loki
Lilia met William before he died, Alice met Billy immediately after. Billy didn't meet Lilia until he'd freed and recruited Agatha and William didn't meet any of the others.
I loved them keeping Billy Kaplan’s Jewish background and how they explained his origins from the comics to the MCU. Daddy Kaplan is a cutie and so glad Billy has such accepting parents.
While some might feel this episode slowed down the momentum the show had going, I feel this was an important and fun episode to breakup the trial of the week formula.
Didn't surprise me that his dad also has an air fryer.
The third installment for this would be Vision Quest not a Wiccan project (who will more likely appear in a Young Avengers/ Wanda movie )
Vision Quest is “spinoff related” to WandaVision and has nothing to do with (most of) the creative team of WandaVision (and Agatha All Along).
Wiccan would be a spinoff of Agatha All Along, and would likely involve the WV / AAA creative team.
Vision Quest wouldn’t fit the trilogy, because surely it’s not magic related unlike WV and AAA.
@@blakej1892 A Wiccan series hasn’t been even been officially announced, Vision Quest was always intended to follow on from Agatha All Along and the only reason Jac Shaeffer isn’t the showrunner for that anymore is because the shows were being developed simultaneously and she said it was untenable for her to do it all herself.
@@blakej1892 no, there is no wiccan spin off, visions quest is the next part of WandaVision And gonna introduce vivian, visions childs.
Also wonder man series is already post Production and he also have Histories with wanda in the Comic. Who knows they gonna tied that series to.
Evan Peters, the actor who plays Fox Quicksilver / Ralph Boner was a regular on the first several seasons of American Horror Story if I'm not mistaken. So he has the background to play unhinged pretty well.
More than just the first seasons. He last was on AHS a couple years ago. Plus he did Dahmer right after that.
i have been loving this show so far it's amazing
Nice Doctor Strange beard btw Nerdy
One of the best MCU episodes ever put to screen. It danced around tones, twisted narratively, and tied together storylines in a reveal which reframed the whole show … and yet it told its own story in a contiguous fashion.
It ain’t gonna win any awards (because: comic books!) but it damn well should. It was impeccable writing, directing, and acting.
5/5, would recommend.
a heartstopper reaction would be awesome!
Love the facial hair… side note, please watch heartstopper 🤞🏽
Heartstopper would be an excellent show to react to. The first season is only 8 episodes of around 25 minutes each. Teen High School romance is not a genre I would normally watch but it became one of my favorite series ever.
You should absolutely watch Heartstopper. For a little perspective on the brilliance of Joe Locke, Heartstopper was his first professional onscreen acting job, and Agatha is only his second. All before the age of 20. He and his Heartstopper costar Kit Connor are going to have amazing careers.
joe said the scene in billy's pov with agatha was improv too no wonder he almost broke
Starting to get the feeling this was never supposed to be Agatha's new coven but Billy's, He had significant but small interaction with Lilia and Alice and probably used products from Jen. Kinda hoping the road restores his coven and that they help him find Tommy
I really love this show, you can tell everyone from the actors, writers, directors, costumers, set decorators care about it. The detail is just amazing.
And yes you NEED to react to Heartstopper. It’s just a sweet, funny show that is just special.
Yes please on a heartstopper reaction, it's very gay and cute
Omg yes Heartstopper please 😊
And people said the show isn't gay :)
😉
If this show is gay because it has gay character, then we live in a gay world.
@@TabbyQ.9563having a gay old time
Ummmm yes. Agatha and Rio (Lady Death) and Billy and Hulkling (oof they are hot). Relationship stories and yes as a gay man. I’m here for it.
@@TabbyQ.9563 we do 😍
I'm so glad that we got to see Billy's perspective on the interrogation scene. He really WAS being funny!😂❤
The sigil works on all witches. Not just Agatha. This is why when Billiam says his name in front of the other witches they can't hear him.
The sigil is why Wanda couldn't find him in Multiverse of Madness either
You know it's trauma when you just leave your entire Blu-Ray collection behind (also, Nerdy called it - the fave scene again in the house)
Obligatory joke about Nerdy's evil doppelganger
*insert cap meme* i understood that reference!
It was brilliant to simplify Billy's story because in the comics it is very confusing.
Jac Schaeffer has done a couple interviews this week where she was like, “All respect to the comic version, but I still don’t understand it.” Definitely the right move to streamline.
@@normaladjacent Possibly. But not the right move to starkly differentiate between Billy Maximoff and William Kaplan. He's always been Billy Kaplan in the comics and that is the only thing I'll ever call him. I hope his arc goes in the direction of choosing that name for himself.
@@bookswithike3256 Oh yeah, I hope that happens too, and that he’s able to restore all of his memories, as Billy Maximoff in the Hex and as William Kaplan. But I think getting rid of the convoluted stuff with Mephisto and soul shards was probably the right decision.
The third series of this Wanda vision trilogy is the vision quest series and the wiccan series would be the 4th installment of the who wanda vision saga it would take place after the Solo Scarlet witch film.
A little fyi if your going to dive into Heartstopper. Be prepare to have a box of tissues at the ready it gets emotional at times even more so in season 2.
Ummmm yeah u guys should totally react to heartstopper!
Yessss
proof that william has always been hella gay; he has patti lupone at his bar mitsvah
Billy Maximof is technically 3 years old
Billy aged himself up to 10 by the time the HEX went down, and presumably his soul would have adjusted to being in a 13 year old body.
Don’t tell Eddie 🙊😰
I means his father is still 3 years old. Vision is born in 2015 and death in 2018. And he got back again in 2023 in WandaVision.
@@randompeople465 TRUUUUE
There was an interview where Joe said that he gets to say yes or no to what’s going to appear in William Kaplan’s bedroom and there is this one rainbow design with not a phase meme that he wanted to get removed and said “this definitely has to go” they are so trying very hard so it’s good that there’s an actual queer person to say what’s real and what’s not real for us. I think Joe’s presence in there and his inputs to what’s queer or not on the show made it very just a show, it’s not a conversation, it’s not special, it’s just normal and i was just watching it the way I way I watch anything. He’s such a gem to our community, they got really lucky with Joe Locke. Not to mention, he’s acting HMHERE is topnotch, he played Teen, William, and Billy that I know how different they are from each other.
Do you remember which interview that was? I'd like to watch/read it.
@@freeride_99 yeah i think that was supposed to be a harry potter poster and he had covered up with Trans live matters banner!! Hes such a gemm
@@bookswithike3256 yeah okay sure let me try find it for you!
18:33 at the Bar Mitzvah Lilia wrote the sigil and as soon as she passed it onto him by placing it in the jacket, is when she immediately forgot who the jacket belonged to and told the other lady at the party to make sure the jacket gets back to its owerner but doesn't remember who's it is
Yo, her name is Lilia. And the next part of this series trilogy is Vision Quest.
I highly recommend 'Heartstopper' it's really one of the gayest shows ever. I will give a warning that the intended demographic, especially for the first season, does skew a little younger but they've done a good job of maturing the show with the actors and audience.
It was also Joe Locke's first ever screen job (Agatha is his second). Apart from the two shows his only other professional work is 2 theatre jobs I believe.
Yeah, you definitely should watch heartstopper!
William Kaplan was already into magic as well before Billie took over his body
I’m losing it over all the different names you keep giving everyone 😭 John Bohner, liliana, John Locke 🫶🏾 all love but at one point I thought it was a bit.
They were just channeling Agatha!
I think that at the start of every trial, the dead members of the coven might be there to guide the still living. “If one be gone, we carry on, spirit as our guide” maybe? If so, oh the guilt that Billy is gonna have face head on with his victims.
Joe Locke saying I don't want to go back in the closet was improv, it wasn't in the script.
Alice explained that it seemed the sigil hid teen’s sigil from “Witch Folk”
Mrs. Heart was not there because she walked off the road
Omg yess please watch heartstopper it is so cute/ and deals with some tough topics really well
I'm 90% sure he's looking to find out where is brother is which would make sense if that's the next show of the series.
There's a deleted scene where Alice was trying to get a statement from Mr.Kaplan and she couldn't hear him say Billy's name, so it prevents anyone from learning about him from anyone no matter who is taking about him
They leveled up hiring #JoeLocke
Re: the Bar Mitzvah- there's a difference between a Medium and a Fortune Teller; these events usually hire the latter, although Lilia happens to be both
The double edged sword of having a small budget is that the show itself tends to be viewed far less prestigiously by execs and it can often get away with far less scrutiny as a result. Reminds me of the behind the scenes of the Batman TAS movie Mask of the Phantasm where they got a big budget infusion and were flipped from a TV movie to Theatrical and it caused a ton of execs to start swinging by and leaving notes for no other reason than they needed to show they were "involved" with the project now that it was seen as higher profile.
It can afford to have a niche appeal.
Your favorites may shift slightly if you find time to watch S2 of Interview With The Vampire. I found it to be truly magnificent
I truly hope they react to Interview With the Vampire. I believe they will really enjoy it and we will ape their reactions.
@@beethewizard They did react to season 1. Dunno if that not being well known may be why they didn't publish reactions to season 2 🤷🏾♂️
Been enjoying your reactions very much, nice thoughts, funny comments and actual enthusiam. I also love how you guys refer to Rio as Death already lol I know everyone and their mother already knows or imagines who she is and the show has given plenty of hints but it's still funny the *reveal* hasn't happened yet and everyone's just like "Oh yeah, Aubrey's character, Death"
first time watcher. Just heard you say "link in the doobly doo". I'm sold.
I'm really loving this show. It's not quite Penguin level but I'm hella enjoying it and look forward to the new episode every week. Thanks for your reactions to this, it's nice to see others who appreciate the show on a similar level
Yeah, in episode 3 they explain that the sigil conceals Billy’s identity from all “witch folk.”
The closet joke was a Joe Locke ad lib, and the prolonged poking the bear and pen clicking bits were also improvised. Kathryn’s fake evil mustache in the final scene, too. So good. Joe has talked about how working alongside Kathryn and this ensemble of powerhouse women was the best drama school ever.
On authentic portrayals of queerness, Joe mentioned in an interview the other day that he provided feedback on the set design of Billy’s room and had them swap out what sounded like a couple outdated gay movie posters (he didn’t say which) with the trans pride flag, and scrap a corny rainbow “not a phase” sticker he thought Billy would never have. It’s nice that they took the time to listen to the gay 19 year old on set.
Love this show and so sad we just have a few episodes left.
Heartstopper is very sweet and very gay, y’all should definitely watch. It was Joe’s first ever screen acting gig (he was plucked from obscurity via an open call where you didn’t need an agent), and he’s very good in it, especially the latest season where he tackles a relatively heavy storyline. Agatha’s only his second gig.
Billy Kaplan definitely is a friend of Dorothy😂
Loved this episode! But yes, other ppl have said it but the sigil prevents all witches from hearing his name. Regular ppl can hear him since his boyfriend heard him no problem. It also explains why Wanda couldn't sense them in this reality in Multiverse of Madness since the sigil had already taken effect before she left Westview. And also, YES PLEASE react to Heartstopper. It is so good, so wholesome, and so so gay!
I would LOVE a Nerdy Nightly Heartstopper reaction!!!
Heartstopper is such a cozy fun (and sometimes dark) gay slice of life. Like, extremely gay. Do it!
My theory is that Agatha has generational trauma.
She gives her baby because she thought that she was evil by nature and she was afraid to create the baby.
She puts a sigil on the baby, but something went wrong and Rio has to killed him.
The she reunites the Daughters of Liberty taken them to the road, steal her powers so she can have the boy, but only takes the Darkhold instead
Accident two airbags deployed, I didn’t see any airbags, perhaps Tommy’s accident, and I’ve noticed the road is incorporating a lot of stuff from Billy’s room
I vaguely remember an interview I saw with Mary Livanos (the EP for AAA) where she said there were a couple of scenes where they just set up the shots etc. then the crew left the room because they kept laughing too much and setting the actors off. Want to bet one of those was the interrogation scene mark#2?
"You do not want to poke the bear..."
"Now it's working" click "not working" click "you know what, you do you..."
"...totalllllyyyyy lyyyyyiiiiinnngggg lettttts find oooooouuuuuttttt"
"those are daisies!"
I lost my shit. Emmys all round I say!
Quiz time! How many MCU heroes have horrific car accidents as part of their backstory??
two. three if you count Tony's Humvee getting blown up in Ironman.
@@pathevermore3683 Including Tony/Ironman, it's five! In order, Ironman, Dr. Strange, She-Hulk, Echo and this one. Also, it's the armed conflict in Kandahar that is the catalyst for Ironman, not a Humvee accident specifically, so idk if I'd count that one...
C'mon guys rmmber the details from the previous episodes.
*Alice said the sigil protects him from "witch folk". So that includes all of them. That's why Lilia & Alice forgot they've met before
*Agatha emphasized that the witch who casts the sigil get affected by it as well. That's why as soon as Lilia dropped the sigil into his pocket, he immediately forgot about him
*The sigil affects people's perception, not that it actually changes what Billy said. Everything personal about him is just censored for the witches
14:57 nice catch!! Lilia couldn’t write his name because of the sigil and Agatha called Rio a tourist in episode 4
this was soooo good. And you should totally watch Heartstopper, its really soooo cute except the 3rd season which is more emotional but cute :D

Hmm... If SHIELD needs to look into Westview, then how about sending Daisy Johnson and Melinda May with FitzSimmons.
Great way to explain how Wanda didn't sense him
I totally understand about the spoilers, that's why I try to jump on as soon as possible. I also don't post such things as spoilers.
