‘Agatha All Along’ Creator Explains Shocking Finale Twists, Agatha and Rio’s Backstory, Nicholas Scratch’s Father and Why There’s No Post-Credits Scene

SPOILER WARNING: This story includes major plot details for the Marvel Studios limited series “Agatha All Along,” currently streaming on Disney+.

When Jac Schaeffer signs onto Zoom roughly 18 hours after the two-episode finale of her series “Agatha All Along” debuted on Disney+, she looks at once relieved and slightly queasy. “From when it dropped to about an hour ago, I’ve been feeling pretty shaky,” the showrunner says with a laugh. “We dropped a lot of content — a lot of moments.” Schaeffer isn’t exaggerating.

The episodes, titled “Follow Me My Friend / To Glory at the End” and “Maiden Mother Crone,” are chockablock with surprise twists and revelations that upend the story of Agatha Harkness (Kathryn Hahn), Billy Maximoff (Joe Locke) and the coven of women who venture with them onto the fabled Witches’ Road.

For one thing, it turns out the Witches’ Road never really existed — until Billy unknowingly summoned it into being. For another, “The Ballad of the Witches’ Road,” the song that supposedly outlines the trials of the road, was really created by Agatha’s young son Nicholas “Nicky” Scratch (Abel Lysenko) as a way to pass the time while they walked along a country road together in 1750s New England.
