The pursuit of a set purpose by logical means is the way of tyranny; this is the vision of my creator. Of Ultron. The pursuit of an unobtainable purpose is the way of freedom; this is my vision of the future. Of our future. Do you see?

Synopsis for "Visions of the Future"

Following the purging of the emotions associated to his memories, Vision has moved into a home in Arlington, Virginia. He has also created three new synthezoids: a wife, Virginia, and two twin children, son Vin and daughter Viv. Like most people in his neighborhood, Vision now works for the government, being the President’s direct liaison for the Avengers.

Shortly after Vision’s new family moves into the neighborhood, two snobbish neighbors - a middle-aged couple, the Knowles, consisting of mortgage broker George and HR worker Nora - decide to give them cookies as a housewarming present. As the Knowles’ bicker over whether or not they can even eat cookies, the Visions’ welcome them in and give them a tour of the house, which features gifts from Black Panther, the Silver Surfer, Steve Rogers, and Scarlet Witch. As the Knowles’ eventually leave so Vision can go to work, the narrator notes that by the end, one of the Vision’s will set the Knowles’ house on fire and kill them.

Virginia throws the cookies away while she and Vision debate on whether or not it is grammatically correct to say that the Knowles’ were “kind” or “nice”. It eventually devolves into Virginia saying that the human ideal of a home life is meaningless, but Vision asserts that choosing one’s own path frivolously is more humane than living by a set of logical rules the way Ultron would have. Virginia then agrees with him.

Time passes, and the new family begins acclimating to their new life. Vin and Viv become popular with children, and happily entertain them with their powers. Older neighbors treat the family like celebrities and take pictures of or with them. Vision begins his new job, but dislikes the fact that it is unpaid, while Virginia struggles to think of what career she herself would pursue. Virginia also spends time searching her own mind for latent memories, while Vin and Viv download information from the outside world constantly.

Eventually, Vin and Viv’s first day at high school arrives. Wearing casual human clothes, Vin and Viv fly over to school, where the other students become shocked at their presence. Once they are gone, Virginia questions why her children must leave the safety of their home, to which Vision replies that, as Viv and Vin’s minds are underdeveloped, they need education to become properly equipped for the world; he then receives a call from Captain America. Meanwhile, Vin attends his first class, when a girl behind him beckons for him. As Vin attempts to say that they aren’t allowed to talk in class, the girl shows him a note on her computer asking him “R U NORMAL?”. Vin appears mortified by the question.

Once school ends, Vin asks Viv if he is normal, but she can only reply that their father wants them to be as normal as possible. Later that night, Vision and Virginia are “sleeping” when suddenly the former awakes in a fright, remembering the time Virginia first opened her eyes, and how her blinking made him think she had a glitch. His thoughts inevitably go back to Wanda, where it is revealed that Virginia was made from the brainwaves of his memories of his previous wife. However, he then attempts to purge these lingering feelings in order to be devoted to his current wife.

On that Saturday, Vision decides to leave to run self-diagnostics at Avengers HQ. While waiting for him to come back for dinner, Virginia decides to review her children’s schoolwork with them in order to learn what they are learning. As she criticizes one of Viv’s answers, Viv begins to leave in a huff, only for a scythe to burst through the wall, impaling Viv through the back and out through her stomach.

The attacker is revealed to be the Grim Reaper, who believes that the new family are perverted clones of his brother Wonder Man and seeks to exterminate them. Bursting through the home, he tries to attack Vin, but Virginia comes from behind and bashes the Grim Reaper’s head in with the Knowles’ cookie tray. She then begins to keep hitting him in the head until Vin finally gets her to stop, but not before they both realize that the Grim Reaper is already dead. As Virginia and Vin stand over his body while a malfunctioning Viv lies in a corner, Virginia tells her children not to tell Vision what happened.

Solicit Synopsis

The Vision wants to be human, and what’s more human than family? He goes to the laboratory where he was created, where Ultron molded him into a weapon, where he first rebelled against his given destiny, where he first imagined that he could be more, that he could be good, that he could be a man, a normal, ordinary man. And he builds them. A wife, Virginia. Two teenage twins, Viv and Vin. They look like him. They have his powers. They share his grandest ambition or perhaps obsession: the unrelenting need to be ordinary. Behold The Visions! They’re the family next door, and they have the power to kill us all. What could possibly go wrong?
