@EV forever pointed me at Fidelity which has a nice table with enough information to conclude that the 1800 call buy is a 1700/1800 vertical spread.

Here's what it looks like currently:

Any idea what that (W) is in some of those descriptions?

I like the idea of big 1700/1800 call spreads :). That creates a pretty powerful incentive to stay as close to 1700 (or below) for that trader at least. At 1800 and above, that's a max loss spread and it'll sting.
 
Been busy all day, saw the meteoric climb and figured there was news... and of course there is nothing to explain this.

So it's either -
1) someone got a leak of the ER and obviously it's positive, so they are loading up. Massive volume. OR
2) someone decided to leave it to the absolute last minute to gamble on getting in. It had fallen from $1800 down to $1500, after all.
