Warning: This article contains spoilers for Agatha All Along episode 7, “Death’s Hand in Mine.”
A huge return in the finale ofAgatha All Alongmight have already been spoiled thanks to one line in episode 7, “Death’s Hand in Mine.“Agatha All Alongepisode 7 detailed Lilia Calderu’s trial on the Witches' Road, with Patti LuPone’sMCUwitch returning after being thrown off the Witches' Road by Billy Maximoff in episode 5. Lilia completed her tarot spread, allowing the remainingmembers of Agatha Harkness' covento leave the trial, but she stayed behind and heroically sacrificed herself to deal with the Salem Seven and save her new family.
By tying together Lilia Calderu’s flashes and explaining her non-linear history,Agatha All Alongepisode 7has received huge acclaim.Lilia’s apparent demise in the episode’s final moments marked the third death on the Witches' Road, following Sharon Davis and Alice Wu-Gulliver, but these deaths may not be altogether permanent.Agatha All Along’sfinal two episodes are scheduled for release on October 30, and given Lilia Calderu’s own last words to Agatha Harkness, it’s possible she may be returning to rejoin her formidable coven.
Lilia’s Warning To Agatha Explained
Lilia Told Agatha To “Hit The Deck”
By completing her trial on the Witches' Road, Lilia Calderu was able to reconcile her entire history, which she had experienced out of chronological order. This gifted her a powerful sense of clarity that meant she was at peace when she sacrificed her life to defeatthe Salem Seven, and also made her comfortable sending her friends on their way to the next trial.She gave Billy Maximoff his spell book back after finding it in the caverns below the Witches' Road, declared Jennifer Kale to be the Path Ahead, and offered Agatha Harkness some interesting and curious advice.
Lilia Calderu:When she calls you a coward, hit the deck.
Trailers forAgatha All Alonghave shown that Agatha Harkness is set to end the series in an epic battle against Aubrey Plaza’s Rio Vidal, who was confirmed to beLady Death inAgatha All Alongepisode 7.It seems that Lilia Calderu telling Agatha to"hit the deck"when"she,“presumably Death, calls her a coward could provide a glimpse to this battle inAgatha All Along’supcoming episodes, telling Agatha to duck when Death names her a coward. However, this shouldn’t be possible afterAgatha All Alongepisode 7’s ending.
Lilia’s Warning Shouldn’t Be Possible
Lilia Saw Agatha All Along’s Finale Despite Her Demise
Lilia Calderu giving Agatha Harkness advice concerning upcoming episodes ofAgatha All Alongshouldn’t be possible, as she seemingly died at the end of episode 7, aptly titled “Death’s Hand in Mine.” It has been established in previous MCU projects that, even if someone is able to see into the future, they cannot physically look past the moment of their own demise, demonstrated by bothDoctor Strange and the Ancient One.Agatha All Alongmay have confirmed that Lilia Calderu is more powerful than any of these characters, which is very believable given her longevity and skill.
Marvel Just Confirmed 1 New Character Is More Powerful Than Doctor Strange & An Infinity Stone
Doctor Strange is one of the most powerful characters in the MCU, but Agatha All Along may have just revealed an even more powerful new character.
While it’s possible that Lilia Calderu may have peered into the future beyond her own demise, it seems more likely that the Sicilian witch isn’t actually dead at all. Her death wasn’t actually seen on-screen, as she flashed back to her lessons with her Maestra in the seconds before being impaled on the same swords that killed the Salem Seven.The well-known “no body, no death” rule could be in effect here, meaning Lilia Calderu may return inAgatha All Along’sfinale, but this might unfortunately have already been spoiled.
Could Agatha Have Spoiled Lilia’s Return Already?
Lilia Calderu May Return In Agatha All Along’s Finale
It’s known fromAgatha All Along’strailersthat Alice Wu-Gulliver will somehow return in the series' upcoming episodes, despite her death at the hands of Agatha Harkness in episode 5, “Darkest Hour, Wake Thy Power.” This will likely be in order to explore more about Aubrey Plaza’s Death, so it’s possible that Lilia Calderu could return for the same purpose.This may explain how Lilia knows about Agatha’s need to duck when called a coward by Rio Vidal, meaning we haven’t seen the last of the beloved coven inAgatha All Along.
