Mcu Billy Kaplan - Blog Posts

Lilia kinda of went to the road for like a second before writing the coven's names ( the scenes of her screaming), so maybe its a circular situation: She wrote the names she saw on the road but the women were on the road because Lilia said they were the coven.

Or maybe Billy interacted with each member before because they were always meant to be part of his coven.

Okay, so the Road itself was a manifestation of Billy's power. But was his power behind the formation of the coven as well? Lilia wrote the names down in her little premonition before they actually got onto the Road. But Billy/William was the thing that connected all the witches because he interacted with them in some fashion before. So were they really meant to be a coven, or was that also Billy's power?

I just noticed Lilia is the only witch who actually called them a Coven. "I needed you, my coven"

And in the next episode Billy calls Agatha nothing but a covenless witch (and she doesn’t actually denies this).

Wanda's powers create illusions. The hex wasn't real the people saw the Sitcom Land because Wanda was mind contolling them.

Billy's powers create reality. The coven wasn't mind controlled by him (exepect that scene after Alice's death). The road wasn't real until Billy made it real. He closed his door but because how his powers work any coven who sings the Ballad will be met with the door.

Billy believes (believed) the road was real, he also believes is the Ballad is the key for the road so now it is.

Ok but like what was Agatha's plan for Billy?

The witches road was fake. She was planning on having the girls blast her so she could steal their magick but what about Billy? He was the one who asked Agatha to take him there. What was she planning on doing about the random teenager at her house?

Was she hoping the Salem Seven would have killed him? Would she have killed him?

Yep. That's what i meant about their parallels when leaving Westview. Specially with the hoid thing, that's when it clicked to me.

You're so much like your mother.

WANDAVISION (01x09) AGATHA ALL ALONG (01x08)

Did anyone else catch the parallel between Wanda leaving Westview after undoing the Hex vs Billy leaving after Agatha's death?

And just like that Nick kept helping his mother kill witches even when he was dead.

I really hope they give Billy a better suit for next projects bc this one is super ugly.

Like use the one with galaxies on the side (ik wich one rigth?) for his next suit up scene.

Jen, my lovely Jen, i'm so happy for her but i really hope we see her again.

I admit i was wrong. The road is fake, or was until Billy decided it was real (it's just so nice when people are creative with reality magick)

The Road changes and adapt to the coven. Agatha surviving it the first time doesn’t actually help them at all.

It's safe to assume Agatha would have walked the Road for the first time (assuming she did walk) around the 1600's around the time her coven would have tried to get her killed (Personal theory/ headcanon that it's not important for this post).

Of course the road from 2024 looks different than the road of 1600, not only they are centruies apart but the coven its different.

Agatha may not understand most of the trials, because the trials are personal to the witch being tested, but she knew to not drink the wine on Jen's trial this shows some type of knowledgement about a idea of what the trial was.

I know is unpopular idea but i believe Agatha walked the road before (and its part of my headcanon about how she got her magick stealing abilities)

My theory for Billy's memorie loss is: The westview/ Billy Maximoff memories was mostly because if the sigil (Who i believe was put to protect Billy Maximoff not William Kaplan)

And the memories of Billy Kaplan are lost because of the head injury he got on the car (i mean there was A LOT of blood on his head, it was going down to his shirt). I mean the doctors did said some memory loss was normal.

Of course we have to consider that (different from the comics) Billy Kaplan is technically dead since the car accident so that is a chance of Billy never having the memories of his first 13 years of life back (and if marvel was more willing to do a more Horror story they would make a perfect character for it).

But either way Billy only have memories of Jeff and Rebecca being his parents for the last 3 years and i will take this little piece of the real Billy Kaplan that we sadly will never get to meet

Billy and Tommy were created in the Hex, where they went from babies- to five years old-to ten years old- to be killed in about five-six weeks.

If the sigil was the reason Billy couldn't remember anything pre-accident (wich i believe it was) That means he just got all of his memories back, both as Billy Maximoff and William Kaplan. That includes 13 years of being the son of Rabecca and Jeff Kaplan and the weeks of being the son of Wanda Maximoff.

We all saw him when he woke up after the car crash as Billy Maximoff he was scared. And ok Agatha was mocking him but she was rigth Wanda chose a town full of strangers over him and Tommy (There’s was nothing stopping her from recreating their Sitcom land instead of that farm we saw her in MoM).

Billy thinking about the Kaplans as his real parents os completely the rigth choice. He was the Kaplan's son for 13 years more than he ever was Wanda and Vision son for.

I'm sorry but Billy identifying himself as a Kaplan more than identifying as a Maximoff is the closest we got of his Comic backstory so far.

And honestly? Considering how they are handling him in this show have this little bit of Comics!Billy was a suprise, but a very welcomed one.

This last episode made me realize i am (probably) the only person who is ok with wanda being dead.

To me it was never a question about who/what Billy was after in the road it was always Tommy.

In the Journey to get her kids back Wanda became something they were scared of. She made it up by destroying the Darkhold so no other witch would be corrupted by it. That's her story! a mother who at the end of the day gave her plans up for her children happines (in this case by letting they live their lifes with their real mother).

I don't think Marvel will bring her back, at least not Elizabeth's version of the characters anyway.

People need to make peace with the fact that's more than likely she will NOT be back.

The problem with how Marvel is handling the Maximoff twins is that they shot themselfs in the foot.

They have a lot of projects planned do release at certain times in a certain order.

They already started doing the team up to Young Avengers so they need Wiccan rigth now. They can not do a time jump because the others are teenagers now. So they had to kill Billy Kaplan and make Billy Maximoff's soul jump in his body.

Marvel's problem was timing they introduced Billy too late and the other Young Avengers too soon. They were scared that the public would forget them if they stopped doing Avengers for a second

We also don't know what is happening with Tommy.

If he already is Tommy Shepherd would Wanda kill the Shepherds to get her son? And if Tommy doesn’t have a body yet would Wanda kill a innocent child for her son?

Wanda was more than ready to kill a diferent version of herself and steal her life. What lines would she Cross in her universe if she knew her Children had the ability of jumping bodies?

Maybe Lilia saw something worse happening if wanda could find Willian Kaplan

"Now, if Lilia hadn't put the sigil on Billy, none of this would have happened."

Really? Wanda would have just tried to steal the kids not from Wanda-838, but from Billy Kaplan's parents. And most likely she would have killed them and forced Billy to go with her.

Are fans that bad at admitting the mistakes of their favorite characters? No one forced Wanda to open Darkhold, it was her decision. She consciously ignored any danger. Well, or you have to be so stupid to take a dark artifact when you yourself are zero in magic and then start smearing snot all over your face.

It's so convenient to shift responsibility to other characters once again once again. It's apparently a factory setting for fans.

So was Billy super close with Alice because she was the one who saw both Willian Kaplan die and Billy Maximoff re-borning?

Poor Ralph he's super traumatized by Agatha but i'm so happy we got at least some answers on him

Although we seem to all agree that there was something off with the trial on episode 5 from all the theories i've seen nobody else thinks that this trial was a punishment for the coven.

I mean the rules say to not get off the road but when the coven try to scape the salem seven by flying they leave the road. Then they are pulled back down straight into the next "trial" witout a diferent road (notice in the other episodes not only does the filming ratio chenges there is always a path leading to the trial's door that matches the house).

I've seen some say it's actually Billy's trial because he is the one who gets his powers at the end of the episode and i believe that could be true as well. But for me this was a punishment, this trial was design to make the coven lose a witch ( "Punish Agatha" "Leave Agatha here with me and go back to the road without her") while all the others were about the witches knowledgeable on the craft.
