VisionQuest Episode 8 Forever Synopsis
Vision Character Created by Roy Thomas and artist John Buscema
Creator and Showrunner: Terry Matalas
Episode 8 Written and Directed by: Terry Matalas
After turning both Jocasta and Vision into serving robots The Client is revealed to be Virgil Horton, Phineas' grandson and Jo Carrington's husband. While trying to solve his grandfather's artificial intelligence algorithms, he partnered with Jo but to her shock and revulsion later sold the algorithms to Stark Industries to secure his legacy as a Horton.
Virgil took a job with SWORD and was instrumental in restoring Vision's body, while also syphoning off parts to create Jocasta. After Jo's death he planned to transfer his consciousness into Vision and reunite with Jo. Together they would be a god and godess and use the reprogrammed nanobots to rule the world.
Paladin survives the RPG attack on his murder van with E.D.I.T.H.'s help and joins Tommy and Lisa in freeing Vision and Jocasta.
But in the breakout attempt Virgil shoots Jocasta with adamantium bullets after she attacks him. In her dying moments Jocasta sends nanobots to merge with Ultron captured by Virgil, allowing him to escape his hard drive prison and regain his body.
Ultron kills Virgil with a heavy hug and, having lost his true love, he resumes his plan to wipe out humanity.
Knowing the pain of grief, Vision traps Ultron in a television sitcom and convinces him to stand down by letting him face his loss.
The processing needed for the sitcom simulation starts the destruction of the core processors of Vision and Ultron in order to destroy the nanobots, but Ultron is able to transfer his consciousness to some unaccounted nanobots to escape his sitcom prison.
Meanwhile as Vision's core processor fails, Billy Maximoff finally tracks down his brother Tommy and together they restore their father. Vision leaves his Mindspace with the other AIs.
Paladin and Lisa reform with E.D.I.T.H. as their new AI guidance, while Tommy and Vision head to visit Billy in the real world in Eastview New York, very close to where their family began.
In two mid-credits scenes, Ultron is revealed to have retained Jocasta's data drive, while a hooded figure "awakens" Wanda at Mount Wundagore seeking her power.
