This is possible but I'm thinking it'll go like this:

1. Diabate continues to live in luxury through season 1
2. At some point in the end of season 1 or season 2, the natural conclusion of a pacifist lifestyle will result in the Plurbs no longer being able to support his nonsense
3. Diabate will do a character transformation from being the king on his throne to being the king serving the peasants by being some kind of banana plucker and chicken beheader.
4. We'll get flashbacks to Daibate's past where he was basically locked into servitude, and now has to live that life or see the plurbs die.
5. Open question on whether Plurbs are fertile and what their offspring looks like. Could be the virus has a VERY different impact on babies concieved after the virus infects the host, which could be a big shakeup for season 2 depending on how Vince wants to take that.

tbh, the positive version of that isn't that bad of a lifestyle. Live in some tropical paradise and maintain a community of 50ish people and all you have to do is pluck fruit and kill animals. Obviously it relies on the cooperation of a hostile alien virus.

Also, I just watched Black Mirror Season 7, Episode Plaything. Plaything (Black Mirror) - Wikipedia

It was really fascinating how similar the conclusion was to Pluribus' opening scenes. Even to the point where Pluribus Episode 1 could be rewritten to effectively start at the end of the Playthings episode.

It was also interesting how similar the Throng's communication was to the title screen of Pluribus, though that can just be explained by a shared background rather than any kind of reference or whatever.



It's not a new concept and I doubt Vince knew about it before writing, filming and editing Pluribus, but just funny that two versions came out the same year. I imagine Pluribus has been bouncing around Vince Gilligan's head for years and when he heard about Black Mirror releasing an episode similar to his idea after he finished filming he was amused.
