Joe Locke’s Teen Struggles to Speak in Agatha All Along – What’s Behind the Mystery?
In Agatha All Along, Joe Locke’s character, affectionately dubbed “Teen,” is a central figure in a mysterious storyline that has kept fans theorizing. A continuation of Kathryn Hahn’s Agatha Harkness journey after the events of WandaVision, the show keeps the suspenseful tone alive, particularly when it comes to the enigmatic Teen.
A recurring oddity in the first two episodes is Teen’s inability to reveal crucial details about himself. Both times, something prevents him from speaking, suggesting a deeper mystery at play—one tied to a potential connection with Wanda Maximoff, the Scarlet Witch.

The Unexplained Silencing of Joe Locke’s Teen
In the series’ first episode, Teen’s struggle to communicate begins when Agatha asks for his name. As he tries to respond, mystic-looking symbols appear and cover his mouth, leaving him unable to answer. Even Agatha, the master witch herself, cannot hear what he says. The intriguing part is that Teen doesn’t even realize this is happening. This magical force seems beyond his control, but it’s unclear whether the symbols hold specific meaning. Some fans have speculated that the letter “M” stands for Mephisto, a villain long speculated to appear in the MCU, but WandaVision played with similar teases without revealing the character.
The second incident occurs while Agatha and Teen are driving to find witches for their coven. This time, when Teen tries to explain where he’s from, the effect is different—he speaks, but no sound comes out. Agatha quickly confirms that her hearing isn’t the issue, hinting that a powerful spell has been cast to mute Teen’s voice when discussing certain subjects. Despite these magical interruptions, Teen remains blissfully unaware that his words aren’t reaching Agatha.
Is Joe’s Teen the Son of Scarlet Witch?
While the show hasn’t fully explored Teen’s backstory yet, a key detail slipped through thanks to a subtitle error, revealing that Teen’s name is Billy. Fans have long suspected that Locke’s character is Billy Maximoff, the son of Wanda Maximoff, also known as Wiccan in the comics.
In the Marvel Comics universe, Billy is the reincarnated son of Wanda, reborn after a complicated storyline involving Mephisto. His magical abilities make him a significant player in the superhero world, and his connection to Wanda adds emotional weight to his character’s journey. If Locke’s Teen is indeed Billy, this could explain the mysterious silencing spell—a protective measure placed on him to keep his true identity hidden.
Theories and What’s Next for Teen in the MCU
The most intriguing question is who could have placed this spell on Teen. If Wanda were alive, she would be a prime suspect, but given her fate in the MCU, it seems unlikely. Could it be another witch protecting Billy’s secret? Or perhaps a darker force is at play?
Fans will no doubt continue to theorize as Agatha All Along unfolds. Whether Teen’s connection to Wanda is fully revealed or new twists are introduced, the mystery surrounding Joe Locke’s character is bound to keep viewers on edge as the series progresses.
