‘Agatha All Along’ Line Suggests Agatha’s Sexuality Confirmation

Anticipation has been building, and while Rio (Aubrey Plaza) and Agatha (Kathryn Hahn) haven’t locked lips yet, episode 7 of *Agatha All Along* seemingly confirms Agatha’s sexuality.

Since the show began, fans have speculated about the dynamic between Rio and Agatha. Their playful banter hinted at a potential attraction, and viewers have been eager for authentic representations of queer relationships. The moment Agatha Harkness retorted to Billy (Joe Locke) had fans erupting with excitement.

In the episode titled “Death’s Hand in Mind,” Billy presses Agatha for clarity. When he challenges her to be more straightforward, she quips, “Hey, you want straight answers, ask a straight lady.” While we haven’t witnessed her kissing Rio just yet, it certainly feels like we’re only an episode away from some much-awaited romantic moments.

Numerous fans express their overwhelming joy at this pivotal line. “The fact that the ‘ask a straight lady’ comment is real drives me wild. It EXISTS! We didn’t fabricate it; Agatha confirmed she’s not straight, and now it feels so wonderful to HEAR and SEE it. Oh my gosh, I LOVE HER!”

The fact the “ask a straight lady” line is real makes me go insane like… it EXISTS? we didn’t make it up, Agatha literally said she’s not straight which we KNEW but it’s just so good to HEAR and SEE and oh my god I LOVE HER.

Marvel’s Embrace of Inclusivity

Marvel has touched on character sexuality before, notably with Loki (Tom Hiddleston) and Sylvie (Sophia Di Martino), who discussed being bisexual in the first season of the Disney+ series. Although there have been few other queer characters introduced, it’s rare for them to openly express their sexual orientation. What unfolds in *Agatha All Along* marks a significant shift for the Marvel Cinematic Universe, and it’s thrilling to witness.

Billy and his partner Eddie embarked on an entire mission together, while Agatha boldly stated she isn’t straight. This truly is an exhilarating period for MCU enthusiasts who have longed for representations of queer characters, especially since the Young Avengers are officially not all straight in the comics.

Marvel’s decision to allow characters to discuss sexuality and even make jokes about their identities is a refreshing direction for the franchise. This shift resonates deeply with fans who are tired of vague implications that characters may not be straight without any substantial follow-through. Agatha’s clear statement about her identity is sure to become a popular reaction image across social media.

Thankfully, with two more episodes remaining, there’s still a chance to see Agatha and Rio share that kiss. Fingers crossed!
