Overview
- Episode 7, released this week, pushes the series toward its finale by sending Vision and allies on a mission that probes his internal source code.
- The episode returns Corvus Glaive’s weapon from Infinity War and treats it as an 'alien battery' that supplies the power Vision needs to access his systems.
- Paul Bettany also portrays Phineas T. Horton and J.I.M. Hammond, characters introduced as foundational figures whose work is shown to link to the MCU’s synthetic‑life lineage.
- Paladin says he acquired the glaive from Wakanda, which provides an in‑story explanation for how the Black Order weapon left Corvus Glaive’s control.
- A familiar antagonist connected to Age of Ultron appears in a human avatar played by James Spader, and several allied AIs are neutralized, escalating the threat ahead of the finale.
