This week we're recapping VisionQuest Episodes 3 & 4 — the Disney+ chapters where White Vision (Paul Bettany) edges back toward his lost humanity and Ultron makes his move.We get into ALL of it: Vision's malfunctioning processors and the physical comedy that comes with them, the deepening father-son bond between Vision and Tommy (Ruaridh Mollica) — including that hotel-pool reboot — and how Vision finally stops drawing a hard line between his past and present selves. We break down James Spader's Ultron stepping to center stage, manipulating his way into "taking the wheel," and predictably betraying his family the first chance he gets, plus the richer lives of the AI supporting cast: F.R.I.D.A.Y. (Orla Brady), E.D.I.T.H. (Emily Hampshire), and even D.U.M.-E. and U. And we talk the handoff from bounty hunter Paladin (Todd Stashwick) to the show's new central threat, Jocasta (T'Nia Miller) — who she is, why she's so sympathetic, and what Ultron's fascination with her means heading into Episode 5.

(James D'Arcy), E.D.I.T.H., F.R.I.D.A.Y., and a human-form Ultron (James Spader) locked in the attic — plus the return of the Ship of Theseus question that defined WandaVision. We break down Tommy Shepherd / Tommy Maximoff (Ruaridh Mollica) and how his story picks up straight from Agatha All Along, the bounty hunter Paladin (Todd Stashwick) hunting Vision for a mystery employer, the adamantium-round asylum showdown, and J.A.R.V.I.S.'s sacrifice.
