Agatha All Along

Hey!

What compelled you to break into the home

-of a decorated detective? -Hey!

-What were you after? -The Road.

-What road? -You, of all people, should know.

If you've got the goods to break a spell

cast by the Scarlet Witch,

why do you need The Road?

Again, who are you?

I'm...

Someone's put a sigil on that boy.

A sigil is a redaction spell that hides something.

Did you put the sigil on me?

Actually, I wouldn't know. It works on the witch who cast it as well.

Sigils are destroyed when they're no longer needed.

- How old were you? -Thirteen, maybe.

A lot happened to me at 13, too.

Wake up. Alice. Please wake up.

Don't touch her!

You're so much like your mother.

Wait, what are you...

Teen! Help.

-No! No! - No!

You look like you're having fun.

Who, me? Never.

Here. Have you eaten anything? Oh, good. Perfect.

- Oh, look at you. - Eat this.

We are so proud of you.

We love you more than we could ever hope to communicate in human words.

-Gross. -Ew, you're gross.

-You're both disgusting. -

Thank you for everything.

-William, come on. It's time. -There you are.

-Yes! Yes! Yes, yes, yes! -There you go.

Yeah, William!

This is so extra! Okay. Okay.

Welcome to the curious.

Are we looking behind us, or ahead?

Ahead.

I think.

Yeah, do ahead.

Let us see what the future has in store.

Please. May I have your right palm?

Don't tell me everything.

I don't wanna know too much.

Sorry. I...

Just pretend I'm not here.

It's clear that a long journey lies ahead of you.

This journey will be one of great transformation and...

Your lifeline is broken in two.

What?

That can't be good.

It can mean many things.

It often represents personal growth and important life changes.

You're becoming a man.

A new you.

I wouldn't worry.

The Tower Reversed.

I thought you were reading my palm.

I'm sorry. I...

I just remembered something, I think.

Okay, well, I probably should...

go back to the party.

Love the vibe in here, though. It's very early Argento.

You don't need to be a psychic to see that you're a good egg.

Enjoy the now, baby.

It's the only thing that's certain.

Oh, sorry. Um, some kid left this in my tent.

Will you make sure that they get it back?

-Which kid? -I don't remember.

- - Sorry to interrupt.

We've been informed there's something happening

with the anomaly in Westview.

Everybody needs to go home as quickly and as safely as possible.

- -What's going on?

Sweetheart, I'm so sorry. I think we have to go.

-Yeah. -What?

- -

My wife and her flying saucers.

My husband and his indestructible head.

It's okay.

It's okay. We'll be home soon.

Is it going away?

It looks like it's getting smaller.

Mom, look out!

Oh, my God. Oh, my God. Are you okay? Oh, my God. William. William? William!

- Is he okay? -No, he's bleeding.

What? William, can you hear me, baby?

-Call 911. -I'm trying.

I don't think he's breathing. I can't get to him.

- It's not going through. -William.

Oh, no. Jeff. Look.

I'm gonna flag them down.

-William, oh, no! No, no, no! - Help! Hey!

I'm coming. Hold on.

William! Oh, no, I can't get to him.

- Good night, Tommy. - Good night, Billy.

Tommy!

Hey, hey.

- Rebecca. - You're all right.

You're gonna be okay.

-Are you okay? -Is he breathing?

-Yes, he is now. -Okay.

- Thank God. -Don't move him.

The ambulance is on the way.

Can you say your name?

Do you know where you are?

Do you remember what happened?

It'll be okay.

It's okay.

It's okay.

- There's nothing physically wrong? - He's clearly different.

I'm referring you to an excellent psychologist.

And of course I'm here, too, if you need it.

Thank you.

- Hey, buddy. -Hey.

This is where you'd say, "Since when do you call me 'buddy'?"

Would I?

Seriously? He's gonna make fun of him?

She's giving me that look. I'm doing my best here.

It's fine. Just please don't fight.

-What do you mean? -We're not fighting.

Everything's okay. We're with you.

Yeah, sorry.

So, the doctor was saying all the scans look clean.

And there's no signs of permanent damage.

She thinks the amnesia will just take a little time to resolve on its own.

That's all.

The really good news is you're cleared to be discharged

as soon as tomorrow.

Well, only if you're ready. Are you?

Ready?

Yeah, of course.

Okay. Home sweet, messy,

someday-we're-gonna-get- that-bathroom-renovated, home.

So happy you're finally home, William. Goodness.

Thanks.

Okay. I'm gonna change the water in this.

I'm gonna pop up the AC. It's just stuffy.

-Here. Let me get this one. -Oh, yeah.

Greg!

Greg, chill out. It's William. It's just William.

It's probably just the smell from the hospital or something.

Okay, come here. Come here. Come here.

He looks so scared.

Oh, my God. This is so hard. When will he remember?

I don't understand what's happening.

What? What is it, honey?

The doctor said no stress

but it really feels like we're stressing him out.

What are we supposed to do?

How do we fix this? I just want him back!

Please just stop. Please stop! Please just stop.

Stop what, buddy?

Maybe seeing his room will jog some...

What if he never remembers?

What if he just stays like this?

- His favorite restaurant. -Lost, anxious, alone?

-There has to be something. -What if...

-Give me my son! -Will he be okay?

Stop worrying!

I'm sorry. I just...

Maybe you're right, Mom.

Maybe I just need to see my room.

-How did... - Do you mind if I...

go up alone?

It's no problem. Of course.

Maybe when I come back down, we can have dinner.

My treat.

My name is William Kaplan.

I'm William Kaplan.

I am William Kaplan.

I had fun.

And I always have fun with you.

What is this thing? You always have it with you.

It's nothing.

It's a sigil. At least, I...

I think it is. It's like a puzzle. Sort of.

Puzzle?

Well, have you solved it?

No, it's...

It's impossible.

I'm just gonna say it.

I can't not say it.

I'm just gonna say, "William Kaplan. I love you."

I...

Sorry. I just...

-I need to tell you something. -Really? I need to tell you something.

-Yeah, me first. -Okay.

So this thing happens when I'm with someone I care a lot about

and they're having intense feelings.

-I already sound like a freak... -I'm... I'm into it.

The car accident.

I never told you about it, but, uh...

Eddie, I...

I died that night.

And when I came back, I was different.

Something else. Something more.

I'm not William Kaplan. At least not entirely.

I still don't remember anything from before the accident.
