A dark episode with a hopeful end.What If 305 What if The Emergence Destroyed The Earth? SynopsisExecutive Produced by: Matthew Chauncey, Bryan Andrews and Brad Winderbaum with Kevin Fiege.Head Writer: Matthew ChaunceyStory by : Bryan Andrews, Matthew Chauncey, and Ryan LittleTeleplay by : Matthew Chauncey and Ryan LittleEpisode Directed By: Stephan FranckAfter the Earth was split apart by the Emergence, Quentin Beck overtook Stark Industries, creating an army of drones called the Iron Federation to subjugate the survivors. In the present, Riri Williams is recruited by Wong, Okoye, Valkyrie, and Ying Nan to join their "Alliance". After defeating Beck's lieutenant Vision, Williams uses his components to become a human-synthezoid hybrid. While the Alliance holds off the Federation, she infiltrates Beck's base to destroy the nanites powering his illusion. However, her suit fails and she loses the ability to see through Beck's illusions and is lured into a prison cell, where Beck explains that he uploaded the nanites into himself, meaning he can control illusions with his mind. But the nanites are killing him, so he intends to merge with Vision to live longer. Williams breaks free, only to learn that her comrades are dead and everything since Vision's defeat has been an illusion. The Watcher intervenes by encouraging Williams to fight back, so she siphons the nanites off Beck's body, killing him and destroying the Federation. Williams then projects the Avengers logo into the sky to give the survivors hope. Elsewhere, three other Watchers are displeased by the Watcher's continued interference.Marvel's What If...? 305 CastDominique Thorne as Riri Williams / IronheartAlejandro Saab as Quentin Beck / MysterioEmily VanCamp as Sharon Carter / Power BrokerKenna Ramsey as OkoyeDavid Chen as WongTessa Thompson as ValkyrieMichelle Wong as Ying NanJason Isaacs as the EminenceD.
