Summary

With enemies closing in, the coven flees under the light of a blood moon to the next ghastly trial.

Our Take

A mostly solid mid-season hour that finally shows how ruthless Agatha can be, and Kathryn Hahn sells the moment where the mask slips. The sleepover trial is a fun change of pace, though the 80s music cues feel a bit like Marvel patting itself on the back. Worth watching for the ending alone, which genuinely stings.
