Westview Anomaly[]
Enthralled by Wanda Maximoff[]
Shortly after the Blip in 2023, Davis was having coffee outside a coffee shop, when she became enthralled by Wanda Maximoff and became part of the Hex. Along with the other citizens of Westview, they were brainwashed to take part in a fictional sitcom reality, with Davis taking the part of Mrs. Hart and her husband becoming Arthur Hart, the Director of Computational Services Inc.[4]
Dinner[]
- "So, where did you two move from? What brought you here? How long have you been married? And why don't you have children yet?"
- ―Mrs. Hart to Wanda Maximoff and Vision[src]
Mrs. Hart always accompanied her husband Arthur to have dinner with his new employees whenever they were hired. She was invited to Wanda Maximoff and Vision's house after Vision was hired by Mr. Hart. Hart and Arthur were escorted there by Vision. Upon entering, the lights were off and Hart noted that the atmosphere was somewhat provocative. Vision apologized and then left to look for his wife, the Harts alone.
Out of nowhere, Maximoff covered Arthur's eyes and asked him, "Guess who?" thinking it was her husband. Vision then came out of the kitchen and turned on the lights into the room, to Maximoff's surprise. Hart and Arthur were confused, and the latter asked for an explanation. Vision clarified that it was a traditional Sokovian greeting, informing them that Maximoff is European. Hart praised Maximoff's nationality, and told Arthur that he had no culture when he became upset. Hart also praised Maximoff's clothing; who left for a moment with Vision to talk privately.
Vision returned to the living room and sat with Hart and Arthur on the couch while Maximoff prepared dinner. Arthur and Vision were talking about work formulas while Hart was getting bored and almost sleeping. When a noise was heard in the kitchen, Hart went to it to try to help Maximoff, but Vision stopped her. Hart told him that Maximoff needed his help, since not even an appetizer had been served. Vision clarified that his wife had everything under control, and they returned to sit down.
The sounds in the kitchen continued to get louder and with no one to stop her, Hart tried to open the sliding window that led to the kitchen to talk to Maximoff. When he was already opening it, Vision began to sing "Yakety Yak"; distracting Hart and Arthur. Looking back the sliding window was closed, surprising Hart a little. Vision then told them to all start singing together.
Hart and Vision began singing, "Old MacDonald Had a Farm" much to the displeasure of Arthur who did not want to sing with them. Out of nowhere Maximoff shouts "Diane", and Vision says he's calling her, much to Hart and Arthur's confusion. Vision said it was a nice nickname and left to help Maximoff. Hart then opened the sliding window to the kitchen and greeted Vision and his wife. The latter returned the greeting and closed the window. Maximoff came out to distract Hart and Arthur. Hart said he felt like everything was spinning when they heard another sound from the kitchen. Maximoff told a bad joke and jumped into Arthur's arms to distract them, leaving Hart confused.
At that moment, Agnes knocked on the door to talk to Maximoff, who received what she had come to give her and closed the door on her. Arthur then asked her and Vision who she was, with they saying "A man selling telegrams." This confused the Harts. As Maximoff returned to the kitchen, Vision told Hart and Arthur that the evening has been going well. Hart's head hurt again and Arthur complained to Vision about how he is barely keeping his household together. The Harts then look back to find dinner served on the table by Maximoff.
Arthur pointed out that dinner looked like breakfast, to which Hart said it was very "European." Vision then made a toast to the guests and helped Hart sit down for dinner. Hart began asking Maximoff and Vision about their past to get to know them better. The couple couldn't answer any of the questions because they both seemed confused about their past.
Growing impatient with the lack of answers, Arthur began to pressure the couple. Hart asked him to calm down and let them establish their story. Unable to answer, Arthur continued to press until he began to choke. Hart began to tell her husband to "stop it", and every time Arthur choked more, Hart repeated his words louder. As Arthur fell to the floor, Davis briefly took control of her body and turned to Maximoff begging her to stop. Maximoff then tells Vision to save Arthur.
When Vision saves Arthur, Hart and her husband quickly return to the sitcom saying that it's too late and they have to leave. Maximoff asks if they are okay, but they ignore the question and Hart says goodbye in "Sokovian style" to Maximoff. Leaving after Arthur, she notices a lobster at the door as a door knocker. Thinking that it is in a European way, Hart says that it is charming and says goodbye for the last time.[2]
Westview Talent Show[]
As a Westview resident, Hart attended the Westview Talent Show to support Westview Elementary School. She watched all the other residents' shows. When seeing the last act which was that of Wanda Maximoff and Vision; Hart was initially confused, but at the end she loved the show and applauded when they were awarded Dottie Jones as the funniest comedy of the year.[5]
Released[]
- "If you won't let us go, just let us die. Please."
- ―Sharon Davis to Wanda Maximoff[src]
While downtown, Davis was awakened from her character of Mrs. Hart by Agatha Harkness, along with the other citizens of Westview. Davis and the others confronted Wanda Maximoff, begging to be released. Davis told Maximoff that her grief is poisoning everyone. Continuing begging to be released, Maximoff felt overwhelmed by the situation and unintentionally choked Davis, along with the others with her powers. After almost suffocating, Davis told Maximoff to let them die if she won't let them go.
Maximoff then finally freed them and opened up the the hex, so they could leave. Davis tried to leave the hex like the other residents, but she only managed to hide away from the battle. This was because Maximoff realized that her children and her husband were disintegrating, so she stopped opening the barrier. When the battle was over and the Hex had been taken down, Davis met with the other citizens of Westview and resented Maximoff as she fled the town.[3] The FBI then arrived and met with a distraught Davis, who was inspected by the medical team.[6]
Personality[]
- "We had such a lovely time. This guest is leaving your home."
- ―Mrs. Hart to Wanda Maximoff[src]
During the Westview Anomaly, Davis seemed to be accepting of new things, seen when she was tolerant of Wanda Maximoff's so-called Sokovian traditions and culture, calling it "exotic". Davis even went as far as scolding her husband for being less than tolerant of Maximoff's strange practices. After the Hex was lifted, Davis had a far colder attitude towards her enthraller.
Along with being an accepting and generally good person, Davis is quite intuitive, sensing when Maximoff required assistance in the kitchen and heading off to attempt to aid her before being abruptly stopped by Vision.
