Central Characters: Wanda Maximoff & Vision

In a 1950s setting, the seemingly newlywed couple of Wanda Maximoff and Vision arrive in the suburban town of Westview. Both try to live as normal a life as possible, with Vision hiding his robotic appearance under a human disguise while Maximoff limits her powers.

One day, the two puzzle over the significance of a mysterious heart on their kitchen calendar. Neither of them can remember the occasion, so they decide they are celebrating something special together. As Vision leaves the house for work, Maximoff points out he has forgotten to transform himself into his human appearance, which he does before heading out. Not long after, Maximoff meets next-door neighbor "Agnes" and gets caught off guard when she cannot answer how long she and Vision have been together or where their wedding rings are. She then proclaims she and Vision are celebrating their anniversary, to which Agnes promptly offers to help plan the special night.

At Computational Services Inc. Headquarters, Vision's coworker Norm marvels at how fast he works and jokes that he is like a walking computer, which Vision denies. His inability to understand the significance of what today is resolved when he remembers that he is hosting his boss, Mr. Hart, and his wife, Mrs. Hart for dinner. Mr. Hart, who is looking forward to the evening, explains the importance of the dinner, pointing to former employee Phil Jones, who is leaving because the dinner he hosted was not to Mr. Hart's liking. Vision then calls Maximoff, and the two talk about their plans for the night without ever specifying the occasion they think they are celebrating.

Later that night, Maximoff sneaks up behind Mr. Hart, mistaking him for Vision, and gives him the old “guess who.” Vision scrambles to explain that Maximoff is from Sokovia and lies that this is the customary Sokovia way of greeting guests. The Harts without much hassle accept the explanation.

Eventually, Vision and Maximoff retreat to the kitchen where Vision explains that the heart on the calendar represents his boss’ visit. Wanda snaps herself into a new dress and begins going to work on cooking a home-cooked meal.

Vision speaks with his boss about work and again tries to get more information about what his company actually does. Agnes arrives in the kitchen using the house's back door to help Maximoff prepare dinner but she drops a pot in the process. The crash in the kitchen is loud enough that Mrs. Hart chooses to offer her help. But Vision is able to stop her. Inside the kitchen, Maximoff hurries Agnes out of their home and begins going to work using her powers but ends up causing another crash. As Mrs. Hart makes another attempt to help in the kitchen, Vision distracts her by singing “Yakety Yak”, catching everyone off guard.

Maximoff struggles to make dinner, burning the chicken to a crisp at first and then turning a chicken into a basket of eggs while Vision continues to distract the Harts with a sing-along. Unfortunately, as the night wears on, The Harts begin to grow impatient and just as Mr. Hart begins to scold Vision, Maximoff quickly lays out their dinner and they all sit down to eat some breakfast for dinner.

Mrs. Hart asks Maximoff about their story, which neither she nor Vision can come up with. Mr. Hart begins to demand answers until he starts choking on his food. Maximoff looks panicked for a bit before finally telling Vision to save Mr. Hart. Vision removes the food from his boss’ airway and saves his life in the process, which prompts an end to their visit. Surprisingly, the Harts are pleased and Mr. Hart promises to talk with Vision about a promotion on Monday morning.

After their guests leave, Maximoff points out that she and Vision have no anniversary, song, or wedding rings. Vision decides that today will be their anniversary, and their song will be "Yakety Yak," after which Maximoff conjures wedding rings for them both. As they share a kiss and the "episode" comes to an end, a mysterious figure observes the strange sitcom from an unknown location, writing down observations in a notebook bearing the S.W.O.R.D insignia.
