Mrs. Davis Season 1 Episode 7 Great Gatsby 2001: A Space Odyssey
With the Lazarus Shroud secured, Simone and Celeste set sail on a perilous journey in pursuit of the Holy Grail; Wiley receives an unexpected offer from Mrs. Davis that could rewrite his future.
Call me Ishmael — wait, sorry. Call me your recapper of Episode 7 of Mrs. Davis, because the penultimate installment of the Peacock series pits Simone against a giant whale. And, meanwhile, Wiley comes face to face with his own mortality. Though Episode 7 cuts back and forth between the two plots, it’ll be easier to recap the events if we just go through them one at a time, but Simone and Wiley do indeed start the episode together.
Simone, Wiley, and Shroddinger are in Spain, getting ready to set sail after the sperm whale who ate the Holy Grail — a monstrous cetacean named PC220 who has become violent and destroyed multiple boats since swallowing the Grail. Celeste joins them, as promised, with the Lazarus Shroud in tow. An agent of the Sisters of the Coin slips a tracking device on the boat, but he himself will not get on because PC220’s deadly reputation precedes her.
That tracking device isn’t the only thing getting slipped on. Simone brings Wiley over to a bench under the guise of informing him about the tracking device Hans implanted on his shoe, but it’s really so that she can covertly handcuff him to the bench. She says there’s no way that Wiley wouldn’t have been the one to put on the Shroud, just like he had to try to ride Jezebull or prove himself at Excalibattle. “I can’t abide by you working out your sh-t on my quest,” Simone says, rejecting WIley’s argument that she’s only doing this because she can’t trust herself with him on the boat. Not the case, she informs him before leaving him there. Actually, Jay said that sex with Wiley was okay.
Wiley, having been ditched by Simone, is trying (and failing) to extricate himself from his predicament. As he’s destroying the tracker Hans put in his shoe, a fancy motorcade rolls up. It’s the prime minister of Spain, although she’s not here as the leader of the world’s 30th-largest country. No, she’s here on behalf of Mrs. Davis (who is known as Mama in Spain.) The AI, using the PM as a proxy, tells Wiley that she knows all about the Resistance. She says that the data center they’ve been looking for? Well, it’s right under their nose, as she’s infiltrated their HQ’s server system and that’s where her “brain” is, so to speak. She wants the Resistance to franchise so that she can have other servers to expand her algorithmic consciousness across.
Wiley needs to get the Resistance to expand — to unknowingly propagate the very algorithm they’ve dedicated themselves to destroying. That’s a big ask, but she says he can do it rather than die, as his expiration date is only 48 hours away. Either he helps her and betrays his friends, or he dies, or he doesn’t report to die when his expiration date comes up. That last option is a non-starter for Wiley. If he were to run away from death, Mrs. Davis would let four billion people know that he is a coward who didn’t actually earn his wings — Wiley’s greatest fear.
