He\u2019s got the same appearance as Ultron\u2019s human avatar, but Ultron was elsewhere &#8211; busy pushing FRIDAY off a balcony.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">But how did we get here? Well, if you remember, FRIDAY (Orla Brady) has been secretly hiding inside <a href=\"https:\/\/thetab.com\/filmshrine\/2026\/10\/21\/who-is-jocasta-in-visionquest-the-butcherbird-killer-has-a-twisted-origin-linked-to-ultron\/\">Jocasta\u2019s (T&#8217;Nia Miller)<\/a> neural network, trying to figure out what she&#8217;s planning without getting caught.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Meanwhile, Jocasta has teamed up with Ultron (James Spader) to unlock her supply of nanobots. She wants to use the microscopic robots to control the human race through a hive mind. No biggie.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">But she\u2019s missing a sixth passcode needed to unlock them. And it appears to be connected to one of Dr Josephine Carrington\u2019s forgotten research partners.<\/span><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_11169\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-11169\" style=\"width: 1200px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-11169\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.filmshrine.com\/uploads\/2026\/11\/9-3.jpg\" alt=\"Jocasta and Ultron in VisionQuest\" width=\"1200\" height=\"630\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.filmshrine.com\/uploads\/2026\/11\/9-3.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/cdn.filmshrine.com\/uploads\/2026\/11\/9-3-1024x538.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/cdn.filmshrine.com\/uploads\/2026\/11\/9-3-768x403.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-11169\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Credit: Disney+<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This is where the mysterious Client comes in. He offers to help Jocasta recover those memories. In order to do so, she needs to unlock Jo\u2019s memories. She opens the data pack given by the Client and it shows her some coordinates.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">She and Ultron head there, only to find a rather familiar house. It&#8217;s the same place Ultron has been trapped inside Vision&#8217;s mind, and it also appears in Jo\u2019s memories.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As it turns out, the house has a much longer history. It once belonged to Phineas Horton, the scientist who created <a href=\"https:\/\/thetab.com\/filmshrine\/2026\/11\/04\/why-does-vision-look-like-jim-the-human-torch-in-visionquest-heres-the-jarvis-link-explained\/\">J.I.M., the original Human Torch<\/a>, back in 1939.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">And FRIDAY has been watching all of this unfold from inside Jocasta&#8217;s mind. But there&#8217;s a problem: Ultron knows she&#8217;s there.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In fact, he reveals that he&#8217;s known about her presence all along, and claims he&#8217;s actually been covering for her. He also suggests that Jocasta isn&#8217;t the real threat, and that someone else is pulling the strings.<\/span><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_11172\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-11172\" style=\"width: 1200px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-11172\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.filmshrine.com\/uploads\/2026\/11\/12-4.jpg\" alt=\"FRIDAY in VisionQuest\" width=\"1200\" height=\"630\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.filmshrine.com\/uploads\/2026\/11\/12-4.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/cdn.filmshrine.com\/uploads\/2026\/11\/12-4-1024x538.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/cdn.filmshrine.com\/uploads\/2026\/11\/12-4-768x403.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-11172\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Credit: Disney+<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">So, for a moment, it almost seems like the two are on the same side. Almost.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As Jocasta begins recovering her memories, Ultron and FRIDAY watch a scene involving Jo and a mysterious man she used to work with. Jo reveals that she has no intention of selling her AI creations or the NEST to Stark Industries.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It\u2019s shown that Jo and the mystery partner were romantically involved. And he just so happens to have the same face as Ultron&#8217;s human avatar.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">But it&#8217;s something the man says that makes the whole thing even more interesting. Jo suggests they use the tech themselves to control the world, to which he replies, \u201cPeace in our time.\u201d Sound familiar? It&#8217;s the same phrase Ultron used in Avengers: Age of Ultron.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Given <a href=\"https:\/\/thetab.com\/filmshrine\/2026\/10\/28\/madripoors-role-in-visionquest-as-people-think-this-captain-america-villain-is-the-client\/\">the Client<\/a> is revealed to have the same face as Ultron\u2019s human avatar, it seems likely that the man with Jo is also the Client. And he may have had something to do with Ultron\u2019s creation.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This is, of course, speculation. But for FRIDAY, it seems she knows too much. Before she can learn anything more, Ultron pushes her off the balcony. So, is she dead?<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>Is FRIDAY actually dead after VisionQuest episode 7?<\/h2>\n<figure id=\"attachment_11170\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-11170\" style=\"width: 1200px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-11170\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.filmshrine.com\/uploads\/2026\/11\/10-2.jpg\" alt=\"Ultron pushing FRIDAY in VisionQuest\" width=\"1200\" height=\"630\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.filmshrine.com\/uploads\/2026\/11\/10-2.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/cdn.filmshrine.com\/uploads\/2026\/11\/10-2-1024x538.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/cdn.filmshrine.com\/uploads\/2026\/11\/10-2-768x403.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-11170\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Credit: Disney+<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Well, not necessarily. While Ultron certainly appears to have killed FRIDAY, we never actually see her die. Instead, she disappears before hitting the ground at the end of <a href=\"https:\/\/thetab.com\/filmshrine\/tag\/visionquest\/\">VisionQuest<\/a> episode 7, leaving her fate up in the air.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">And there&#8217;s another reason she might still be alive. FRIDAY is an AI, meaning even if Ultron destroyed her avatar inside Jocasta&#8217;s mind, that doesn&#8217;t necessarily mean her actual code has been deleted. After all, we&#8217;ve already seen just how difficult it is to get rid of Ultron.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Plus, Paul Bettany previously hinted that death doesn&#8217;t always mean the end for an AI character. Speaking to <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.thewrap.com\/creative-content\/tv-shows\/visionquest-jarvis-dead-paul-bettany-reaction\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Wrap<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> about <a href=\"https:\/\/thetab.com\/filmshrine\/2026\/10\/14\/visionquest-episode-1-2-ending-is-jarvis-dead-paul-bettany-teases-marvel-future\/\">JARVIS&#8217;s death in episode 2<\/a> of the Marvel series, Bettany explained that his programming still exists within Vision.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cThe good news is, is Jarvis\u2019s DNA is part of Vision,\u201d he said. \u201cSo there\u2019s always a way back.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Of course, he was talking about JARVIS rather than FRIDAY. But his comments do suggest that an AI\u2019s apparent death in the MCU might not be quite as final as it seems. It&#8217;s possible that she has a backup somewhere.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Or, maybe Ultron was simply pushing her out of the way for the time being.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>Why did Ultron push FRIDAY off the balcony?<\/h2>\n<figure id=\"attachment_11171\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-11171\" style=\"width: 1200px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-11171\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.filmshrine.com\/uploads\/2026\/11\/11-3.jpg\" alt=\"Ultron in VisionQuest\" width=\"1200\" height=\"630\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.filmshrine.com\/uploads\/2026\/11\/11-3.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/cdn.filmshrine.com\/uploads\/2026\/11\/11-3-1024x538.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/cdn.filmshrine.com\/uploads\/2026\/11\/11-3-768x403.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-11171\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Credit: Disney+<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This is another question entirely. After all, Ultron admits he&#8217;s known about FRIDAY hiding inside Jocasta for some time. But rather than exposing her, he\u2019s apparently been protecting her. Maybe he\u2019s doing the same thing here.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Ultron warned that Jocasta isn\u2019t the real threat, suggesting there&#8217;s someone much more dangerous behind everything. Could he have pushed FRIDAY out of the simulation to protect her from what&#8217;s coming?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It&#8217;s certainly possible. This is the view of many <a href=\"https:\/\/thetab.com\/filmshrine\/tag\/marvel\/\">Marvel<\/a> fans after watching the latest episode.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As one said on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.reddit.com\/r\/visionquest\/comments\/1xnb8zg\/visionquest_episode_7_immolation_discussion_thread\/\">Reddit<\/a>, \u201cI don\u2019t think Friday\u2019s dead. I think Ultron just kicked her into cyberspace to keep her out of the way and protect her from whatever is coming. He doesn\u2019t want to confront whoever he was based on with her there.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cI read it that way too. He booted FRIDAY back out into the Internet, where she&#8217;ll be in position to have the opportunity to save the day,\u201d said another. \u201cI also suspect that Ultron will be against the aims of his human avatar, The Client.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A third added, \u201cIt feels like they are setting Ultron up as an anti-hero. This fits with that.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">No doubt we&#8217;ll find out what really happened to FRIDAY in the upcoming finale, which lands on Disney+ on November 10 in the US and November 11 internationally.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><i>For all the latest film and TV updates and hot takes,&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/FilmShrine\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">like our Facebook page<\/a>.<\/i><\/p>\n<p><em>Featured image credit: Disney+<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Or maybe it wasn\u2019t a betrayal at all\u2026<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":6,"featured_media":11173,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[7],"tags":[99,114,15,11,429],"coauthors":[17],"class_list":["post-11165","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-explained","tag-disney","tag-marvel","tag-now-showing","tag-tv","tag-visionquest"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v24.4 (Yoast SEO v25.9) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Is FRIDAY dead?
