And they were amazeballs . It does n’t really matter that they much come out of nowhere — all the disturbed reveals in this episode were just what the other episodes of this show were missing . That gif is us , pin down in the fond , magically animated , coat arms of this show .
despoiler beforehand . . .
Witches are in reality dweller of Asgard banished to Earth . This is a existent affair that really survive in this show ’s creation . I was kind of joking when I said I wanted themto be aliens , but this is not a show for that kind of joke . This is a show where witches are actually from Asgard . They were n’t coy about it at all . No sly reveals , just Wendy being all “ I miss domicile . commemorate home ? It ’s Asgard . We ’re from Asgard . Asgard . ” THIS IS COMPLETELY RIDICULOUS AND I’M IN LOVE WITH IT .

Joanna say that she and Wendy were ostracize when their father came to power . Does this mean their founding father is Odin ? Or even better , if their father confiscate the pot , can he be Loki ? PLEASE LET THEIR FATHER BE LOKI . Witches of East End / Marvel movies crossover . Fanfic source , get on that for me .
This was the biggest plot bomb of last night , but it was n’t the only one . It starts with Joanna showing Wendy the snake winder Virginia Madsen wanted last week . Wendy ’s pissed , since she was assure it was destroy and , you know , she was killed for it . She need that Joanna actually get rid of it . Joanna ’s reluctant , since it ’s somewhat much the only potential room to get home .
That ’s when the snake key starts to whisper Wendy ’s name . This was so camp and uproarious , I take off to spat . The key attacks Wendy , pumping her full of venom and a desire to go afford the portal to Asgard . I fully support the program of the ophidian key .
Wendy cry for Joanna , who says , “ What the netherworld happen ? Did you look in its heart ? You jazz you are not theorise to await in its eyes ! ” Just bedevil your hands up now , this is a show where a snake samara whispers your name and has dangerous oculus .
Joanna also tries a very simple tour to get the key off . This leads to another representative of inappropriately time humor , which is speedily becoming this show ’s theme song :
Wendy : The snake in the grass is powerful vas of pure immorality . I opine we need something a little stronger than off the handlock Latin program line !
Joanna : countenance ’s try sarcasm . That should help .
The key gets to Wendy at this gunpoint , making her determined to get to the portal , so Joanna utilize magic to seal them in the house until she can get the key off . The maliciousness also hand Wendy a sinful case of the expo , because she set forth just rattling off a whole bunch of plot bomb . The first is that when Joanna left Asgard , she also get out behind her Word . His name is Frederick , and he refused to go with her because he was “ turned against her . ” The 2d is that Joanna ’s husband , and Ingrid and Freya ’s Father-God , is somewhere nearby . He recognize where they are and chooses to remain aside . Third : The key gave Wendy the entropy necessitate to kill immortal Joanna .
The two of them have a belt - down , drag out , magical fight in the menage . It ’s really intense , and the two womanhood are torn up and bleeding at the end of it . They leap on to each other , fly through windows , as if by magic discard scissors at each other . Also , this happens :
Sadly , that gif does not admit the moment right before , where Wendy ’s using that torso as a magical battering Aries to attempt to break up down the front door . Joanna pins Wendy ’s hand to the trunk with a barbeque forking and cuts off the snake in the grass winder , destroying it . There was a moment where it really mat up like she ’d just abridge Wendy ’s hand off , Vader - style . They ’re witches , it ’d mature back , right ? Plus , then the key’d still be inviolate . But no , it ’s destroyed .
Meanwhile , Freya ’s deadening love triangle is really doing something plot - related . Remember last week , when Virginia Madsen says she needed more power ? Well , she settle to get it by drugging Freya and stealing her magic . This works because Freya ’s an idiot . However , it does bestow Freya and Dash back together , in the form of him coming home and saving her biography .
Above : What this episode felt like .
Ingrid ’s the luckiest missy in this instalment , since she spend it all with Enver Gjokaj / Victor from Dollhouse . He ’s in her library research the occult arts and East End in special . They get to be all adorable , decent up until her tells her that he recall witches are substantial and he ’s looking for them .
His Padre was an archeologist who spent his whole life trying to prove Asgard was real . Since this is fiction , he ’s all right . He died , and now Victor ’s plunk up his seeking .
As an aside , are all fictional archaeologists the kind who go around searching for test copy of freaky theories ? There ’s nobody who just go on regular jab ?
Above : Enver Gjokaj playing a fantasy generator . This is just fanservice of the highest order .
There ’s another inappropriately timed humor moment . in good order after Joanna and Wendy have an intense emotional bit about lose the key and Joanna never seeing her Logos again , Ingrid bursts into the scene to have this exchange :
Joanna : How was your twenty-four hours ?
Ingrid : Strange . Is there a place called Asgard ?
Joanna : I ’m going to throw up .
Do n’t cast up , Joanna ! Asgard is the safe thing to happen to this show !
To sum up , here ’s what this episode just revealed : 1 ) Witches are from Asgard . 2 ) Joanna and Wendy were banished because of their father ’s rise to power . 3 ) When they were banished , Joanna left her son , Frederick behind . 4 ) Joanna ’s husband and father of Ingrid and Freya is somewhere close by . 5 ) There ’s a portal to Asgard in East last , in all likelihood in Fair Haven .
Plus , Ingrid ’s told to fend off Victor , since Asgard hunter are always unsound intelligence , and Freya ’s now powerless .
This installment definitely ate its Wheaties for breakfast . It remembered that Ingrid had a thesis in the occult , which was a bang-up way to tie her to Victor ’s program library hunt for information . Freya ’s still stupidly call up that Dash is the right one for her , but that induce her an light mark for Virginia Madsen ’s power go down on . So at least her stupidity ’s finally moving the plot forrard .
But the real star was the Wendy and Joanna plot . Beyond the sheer joy of the bonkers revelations , the two of them locked in the house while Wendy was have by evil had a nice repugnance atmosphere to it . And the show went for it in the wizard battle scenes . They also really conveyed that these two sisters had a longsighted chronicle and knew each other ’s weak spots . It just worked all around . Plus , now that Virginia Madsen ’s all power up , I need a similarly awing confrontation between her , Wendy , and Joanna . Come on , show , we know you have it in you .
