I have a lot of thoughts about the finale of VisionQuest, which I’ll get into in our recap later today. But right now, all anyone can talk about is that end-credits scene, and who am I to deny you some wild speculation about what it could possibly mean? Let’s talk about what happened at the end of VisionQuest.
VisionQuest actually has two end-credits scenes. The first one ties more into the show, while the second one ties more directly into Avengers: Doomsday.
In the first scene, Ultron (James Spader) stares contemplatively out one of the many windows of the Horton estate, holding a flash drive labeled “Jocasta.” He’s shaved his beard, he’s wearing a suit. He’s tapping his finger on the drive, like he’s trying to figure out what to do.
“For me, it was just a promise of some kind that Ultron’s not done,” creator and showrunner Terry Matalas told Entertainment Weekly. “Whatever he’s going to do, for good or for bad, he promised Vision he doesn’t wanna do it alone. And he has this backup. So what is he gonna do? Then he completes it by spiking the lens and looking right at us. It’s kind of on us to decide. So to me, it’s a great question mark at the end of the piece.”
