Ryan had his own don’t you dare stop rolling roger moment
In a nice way too, not psychopath like homelander
Reminds me of the starlight speech at believe expo in season 1.
So is Homelander offing the kid? Is Ryan strong enough to survive or kll Homelander?
@@JoshuaMartian-go3tm he’ll probably be strong enough to survive for whenever it inevitably happens that Ryan goes against homelander
@@thekn0wing Yeah, even tho Homelander has experience and adult supe strength on the kid. I guess he can do that out-of-control anger, y hurt my mom, thing he did to Stormfront.
I think alienating Sage(and not killing her) was the worst thing Homelander could do. Also I think Sage means the one person he can't defeat is himself, because he is a psycho nutball.
Oh absolutely. I think her plan was MUCH more layered then it appeared to us and next episode is when her REAL plan will be seen.
wonder if she flips and joins the boys
@@mystery_to_history that would be horrible and bad writing.
@@TheBoglin nah, I think her plan will change since homelander dropped her. she was always loyal to him.
@@chrischika7026 Why would she be loyal to him? She's doing everything she does for herself. Homelander is a psycho and she knows it.
Ultimately, I think I'd like to see Marvin kill Homelander because then you could say Homelander was killed by Milk.
That would be the second most fitting thing if Butcher doesn't do it.
the dairy industry should be making homelander part of their promotions. oh, wait... 😄
Everytime A-Train opened a door i was just expecting Homelander to be in the otherside. I don’t think he’s making it out this season alive as I’ve never read the comics. 🚆
The comics have a completely different story, it won’t spoil anything
Show doesn’t have much to do with the comics so that wouldn’t really have an effect.
I 💯 thought he was going to be klld off but now that he was able to escape WITH his familyl, maybe he has a chance to disappear like Maeve.
That would be so cliché if he dies after his redemption. I think a good writing would be him surviving and getting to be a hero.
Comics are super different for instance all the boys take a version of V to give them basic super strength. Like kimiko without the healing basically. Or during that deep scene with starlight in episode 1 it's homelander, noir, and atrain sexually assaulting her.
Funny that I used to want a Deep redemption arc but didn't really care about A-Train, but now it's swapped. Deep killing Ambrossius was the final nail in the coffin, fully cementing himself as a villain, while A-Train putting himself on the line to save Butcher and Starlight fully cements him as a hero
a train killed his human gf
deep just killed an octopus
@@Dylan-b1l A train killed Popclaw himself cause HL would've made her suffer, and then killed him. The Deep killed a being he had an emotional connection with because they disagreed with him. It's not the same.
And when he coerced Starlight at the beginning of the series to give him a blowjob by threatening her with lies of being the "2nd in charge" of the Seven and framing her as a psycho for "attacking him" it didn't cement him as a villain?
@@Dylan-b1latrain had time to actually give a f
And actually make up for the pain he has caused
Tf has Deep done?
He's gone off the deep end
Aaron's for sure taking that too literal. Sage is basically telling Homelander that he's his own worst enemy. I'm surprised his ego allowed her to walk away after that comment.
(Because he knows she is incredibly smart and aware) he wants her approval.
he might need her later
Internally he probably recognizes she's right even if he hates to admit it. She's his equal in intelligence as he is for pure physical power. Killing her would mean killing the best of his warped sense of utopia.
The shapeshifter supe was a callback to the shapeshifters in Supernatural - the skin peeling, the eyes switching and how they have memory from the person. It's like 100% the same.
Interesting… the use of a shapeshifter to upset a transition of power like this is similarly used in Star Trek DS9
@@hellfish2309 you're not wrong. DS9 was way ahead of its time.
30:12
After seeing kimiko get blown in half i wasn't worried about her leg being cut
It wasn't about him cutting it off it was about him making it in time
Well I mean it's definitely possible that the virus made it so it wouldn't grow back.
@@syto24I know it was but they was concerned about it. Particularly Aaron
Regular maiming I dont worry but the virus was pretty scary.
@@user-tm3ig9yg1tits more so they were concerned it wouldn't grow back this time cuz of the virus, like burning the head of a hydra after cutting its head off
Fun Fact: The reason the octopus "died" three times is because octopuses (or, is it octopi?) have three hearts.
It's both! Octopi and octopuses are both correct, as is octopodes. So just use whichever one you like the best.
I didn't know about the three hearts thing, so that was neat too.
@@Gafgarion45octopeese
Reminded me of Paul Rubens in Buffy, drawing out the fatality 😆
“Y’know when I carried your ass to the ER, there was a kid there. His eyes were like “Holy shit!”. Looking at me, like I was a hero. None of this screaming fans, no cameras, nobody even knew. Except for this one kid. That felt better than *anything* that I had done at Vought, because for once I didn’t hate myself”
Probably one of my favourite lines in the show, that’s how people should see heroes, being real and not doing some fake PR stunt.
Still thinking casting Tilda Swinton as Ambrosius wasn't a coincidence, since she once starred in a movie called "We Have To Talk About Kevin" 😂
I was a bit surprised that Homelander became emotional about A-Train being the leak because he treated him like shit in the show calling him a fat fuck and a joke
"get off the fucking stage"
Abusers can get emotional when the victim leaves.
surprise surprise homelander doesn't know what a healthy relationship looks like
Cause he's like a kid.
A-Train was a loyal servant to things Homelander personally didn't want to deal with. Just like original Black Noir
Ryan outright saying on live tv that his mom had a husband named Billy is huge. It’s a confirmation to the public that homelanders relationship with his kid isn’t what it seems.
i just realized the attempt on the presidents life is gonna happen on jan 6th, that’s probably the reason they had a christmas episode
Episode 1 took place on election night which is November. The entire season took place in two months
@@the_archmaesterYupp, every episode was a week after the previous.
It's interesting this season took place over just a very short period of time. Season 4 seemed to take place in the span of a couple of weeks whereas in previous seasons it felt like months were the time frame.
13:18 honestly I'm with homelander on this one if it means we never have to see another webhole scene again 😂
LOL -- pretty sure after *this* episode we don't have to worry about another webhole scene.
He killed him out of disgust
i blocked out that shtit everytime it happened
@@aze4964Same it grossed me out so much for some reason lol
@@MuckJaggerno shit huh
I love just vibing and watching this then randomly there's just someone getting torn in half while shitting web fluid. Like that's a 'kill of the year' and it's not even a horror show
I mean, it’s technically not a horror show, but it sure as hell keeps dipping its toe in the genre.
This episode felt like horror
It felt like an MK1 Fatality. Won't be surprised if it becomes Homelanders DLC Fatality.
I love how slow it was like Omniman killing Red Rush
It reminded me of that shot in _The Suicide Squad_ where King Shark tears someone diagonally in the rain.
Pretty sure Sage was talking about Homelander himself. His insecurities are his weakness.
Lets not forget. Sage is the "smartest person in the world", for all we know she positioned herself exactly to where she is now. Being fired allows her to walk away from the 7 ahead of the likely assassination of Dakota Bob and not face any possible backlash. Although i am starting to wonder if Bob is the actual target or if Sage's plan was to actually take out Victoria for whatever reason.(Homelander to step in as Vice President Elect?)
Either way Sage is likely going to let the Boys know about Homelander's milk fetish, Frenchie will connect the dots from what he found in Firecrackers trailer about her lactating drugs and then them deciding that's how they get the virus into Homelander.
Good theory but how do you get Firecracker to lactate the virus without the virus killing her first?
@@lowbird7947 They did show all the milk he had stored when A-Train broke into his place.
@@Cocopuffstuffhomelander would probably rather have it straight from the source rather than bottled
@@tommyn3522he still drinks from the bottle thought
lol do you have any evidence to back this up ?
This is a great R rated Supernatural shape-shifter episode 👌 😂
This show makes my jaw drop every single week
Have you had your T levels checked?
@@DLites151 isn't gore shocking to anyone (normal) regardless of masculinity?
@Womandalorian not when it's overdone to the point it feels like a cheap 80s movie
@@Womandalorian Depends some of us have seen some shit
@@Womandalorian this is unwatchable stuff, and should not be watched. Mind corrupting.
I think Sage will join Newman, I mean they had that conversation in episode 6 for a reason. And it would make sense.
Sage is the one who planned the camps....the thing Newman didn't know about and had a problem with.
Se supone que Newman morirá en el siguiente episodio pero puede que sage se postule para presidente después de su muerte
@@williamdaviddiazcuchimaque7511what makes you think that lol
25:08 Ryan starts talking about how his mom loved Billy... on national television, so now everybody gonna think Homelander it's a CUCK of sorts lmao
i thought it was gonna be that HL is a rapist, but calling him a cuck might actually be better with fucking his audience rating lol
It’s funny how, when a Hughie got his hand cut, I figured it was a red herring where the Shapeshifter was going to become him, and then I remembered he got hit with a knife.
Really solid fake out
But now shapeshifter can because they had sex
This show made me feel legit bad for the Octopus, also, they can live up to 30 min out of the water...
Yeah AND she was on the bed with him for around the same amount of time.
I honestly think it was the octopus just acting and not so much a plot thing looked over. He had to sit there and listen for her the entire time, all though we didn't see all of it. A bit lazy writing though, I can't lie.
@@TheBoglin But don't forget, he hasn't cleaned her tank. She was already suffocating, the tanks breaking was just the final nail in her coffin.
@@bongzilla4172 That would be hilarious if she survived and is the one to kill Deep in the final season
I saw another comment that said they can live for 30 min out of water if they can soak in water or something. The glass shattered to quickly to soak the water in.
Tilda & Chase CRUSHED IT
It's really funny when Homelander saying " just stfu" and "just gtfo" 🤣
why is no one talking about how Hughie got ASSAULTED AGAIN this episode?
Technically if this counts as assault with the shapeshifter pretending to be someone then last episodes doesn’t count as assault since he was pretending to be someone else.
I get why they didn't kill the deep but i feel like annie should've been able to bash his head in if she kept going with that weight.
Yeah she was already making him bleed with punches, i don't know why mm was acting like they would have to "figure out how to kill him". Just have her bash him a few more times with the weight (or the crowbar or something if that's more efficient)
It might take 5 minutes to kill him , we dont know how resisting is his body, and police is a few minutes away, black noir is nearby. Its someone understandable
@@emanuel81111that's all bs, Deep had to live for plot reasons. If Annie can punch hard enough to make Deep (another supe with the seemingly 90% base aspects of super strength and enhanced durability (also Firecracker while we're at it)) bleed like that, she has MORE than enough to kill him, especially with that weight. Noir threw himself out of the window, cops are a null factor in this show, and Deep is not... Invincible.
@@BerryFruit pffff the deep having a plot... hes just a restarded supe , he doesnt have a plot. Also i dont think the deep being alive is much of a threat , he is a liabily for the 7 , so its best to keep him alive.
@@frazfrazfrazfraz supes in this universe are VERY durable, strormfront took a beating from the 3rd strongest character plus kimiko and starlight plus frenchie and mm gunfire and got lasered by ryan and was still alive.
A Train as a hero was GOLD!
Annie finally penatrated Deep in return 🙌
A-Train became a better human after he received a white heart, they cold.
Considering Sage was given shooter duty, that means Sage instructed the shapeshifter. I suspect the creaking at the end is Sage, then, and since she's been fired - team up?
I thought Huie would have noticed that her eyes didnt light up when she climaxed. I did haha
Yea but then her powers have been fucky recently, notice she never used them fighting Deep
Hey that could've been the moment she got her powers back! 😄 I also was waiting for her eyes to light up
the difference is Kinky is using the feather, perverted is when you use the whole chicken
Kinky is when you use the whole chicken and you are both in leather harnesses.
That side eye Homelander gave Firecracker! 😂
I was literally chanting "needle, needle, needle, needle, YEAH!" at 22:45
for those curious or confused 10-1 on a film set is code for take a pee, guess what 10-2 means
Was thinking before this episode that we needed more action, supes fighting supes. Glad we got that.
I also took it as "the one person you'll never defeat is yourself", it just makes sense considering the scene itself, with Homey firing Sage cuz of his ego
Annie is being bashed in the public. Railroaded on the news and her mom is still focused on herself and what people care about rather than be there for her daughter.
Textbook narcissist behaviour
That's just how moms are tbh
I took it as Sage was talking about Homelander himself. He’s really his own worst enemy. His actions are leading others to betray him and his own humanity and need for love still is his weakness.
I thought it was pretty obvious Sage was telling Homelander that he couldn't ever defeat his past, or his ego. Or both.
'You can't get out of your own way.'
This is the best episode of the season, LOVED IT
I can just imagine tilda swinton alone in a booth recording those lines
Noir is a BEAST!
I don't think Deep could've took those bullets, with or without the suit
The Deep’s Octopus gf dying reminded me of when Bill Murray took two last breaths when he died in Zombieland. It’s pretty funny😂
Or it's not really, if you know WHY an octopus suffocated THREE TIMES.....
@@scotthewitt258 what you mean 🤨
@scotthewitt258 her hearts I didn't catch that🤣
Made me think of Deadpool dying in DP2.
Although she could definitely get out that door, octopi can fit through anything their beak can so a door isn't stopping her.
I have a feeling hughie keeping starlights suit is going to come back bite them back. A perfect plan to have the shapeshifter pretend to be starlight and kill the president. It makes sense since annie is MIA rn and they can make all starlighters the common enemy and put them in the camps like they have been planning to do, without any pushback from the public
This is such a plausible theory. I could 100% see this exact thing happening.
I initially thought the shapeshifter false flagging Starlight was the plan, but since we know it’s going to be a shooter and the changeling has assimilated Hughie’s intel and form, I think they will pose as him
Given the resources available to Voght, they would have 0 problems making as many copies of her suit as they liked anyway.
Ha I was right
At this point, the show has redeemed (or is still working towards the redemption of) A-Train and made viewers despise The Deep even more.
Best joke in episode is that Sage is fucking Noir at full intellect.
"What do you mean labotomizing her!?"
Bruh
I took it the other way. Black Noir couldn't distinguish between the smart version and the lobotomized one.
@@pigskinpoetrywell you took it the wrong way
@@billyguyjoe1858 the new Black Noir didn't strike me as an intelligent individual. Several times we see him going to Deep for advice. I just didn't think Sage would treat him any differently.
Homelander seeing Ryan is not the same as him looking like him. And that butcher knows it thanks to Becca; He knew how to be better and the way his father has guided him... for Ryan to only have affection for him. It's simply out of fear! than not choosing to be better and talking about it. And not because he's an idiot who allows himself to resent his traumas and feelings. And that's what will really upset Homelander even more.
Theory: Grace Mallory, not Butcher, is Don T Beakunt and sent him the photo
Watched the episode and came straight here. Can't wait for this reaction!
convinced ashley is cookin some plan up. somehow surviving all this plus she was responsible for the woods? she upto something
Frenchie rushing to cut her leg off reminds me of the walking dead 😹😹😹😹
Rick and Herschel
I know starlight lost her light power for now, but she's still enough to punch holes in concrete right? Which means she can get out by digging out the anchor of the chains without breaking the chains.
that gap at the bottom of the closet door is large enough for an octopus to get through.
This episode took so much out of me mentally.
Last week it was physically because of the entirety of the dungeon scene.
But this week, with it being the episode before the finale I knew everything was going to be hectic.
There was so many times when I was like “yep, that’s gonna happen and that’s what we are gonna go into the finale on”.
I just knew the Deep or Noir was abt to die as soon as they showed up from whatever it is that Butch has.
I thought anytime A-Train opened a door, Homelander would be on the other said especially with Ashley.
I thought Ryan might go bad on tv.
AND Kimiko might die from the virus.
But thankfully everyone made it through.
The finale is gonna be RATHER INTENSE I believe.
That Webweaver kill feels like a future DLC Fatality for MK1 homelander.
Having us wait a whole week for this conclusion should constitute as cruel and unusual punishment LOL
I was expecting the octopus to come right under the door gap no problem lol.
It would be awesome if she kills Deep in the final season
No that's ghost mist you're thinking of.
@@Tao_Tology Octopuses are escape artists, and that gap under the closet door was large enough for her to get through.
Homelander is a blunt object, Sage is a tool of pure precision.. she has plans within plans & has considered all the moves so she can pivot., hopefully they don't kill her off
I don’t know why but someone in a movie or show taking forever to die makes me laugh every time 😂. RIP Ambrosia
The fact that Ambrosius (The Octopus) is voiced by Tilda Swinton is absolutely hilarious to me.
You know I don't normally get angry at this kind of thing but guys it's season 4 episode 7, how tf do you guys still not know how Kimiko's powers work? Literally every time she gets hurt you guys freak out asking if she can heal from this and that and the answer is always yes. Like maybe if she got beheaded that might do it but if that doesn't work then she might be just as OP as Wolverine. Point is we've seen her go through so much already maybe you don't need to freak out every single time. Goddamn.
Just saying, shapeshifting by tearing your skin off ain't exactly Mystique levels of convenient and efficient.
43:00 I mean right after that the camera landed on her Queen Maeve notebook, so
Well queen Maeve fought him in the season three finale and while she did hold her own she wasn’t strong enough to beat him, she also lost her powers from soldier boys chest ray thing so she’s probably not coming back
@@theaveragecrusader16 True, but you don't need to be a supe to be a threat to Homelander. I feel like it COULD be a setup for something, clearly Sage knows more than she's letting on, who knows
@@FlynnTheRedhead While I do think she probably has some sort of plan, I’m pretty sure she was just talking about homelander being his own biggest threat
@@theaveragecrusader16 Fair. I thought the shot of the book was weird, but might just be about the insides, interesting detail
Tilda Swinton needs an Emmy for that death scene.
18:32 calvin talking about the gun reminds me of when he noticed cyborg opening the bag the cube was in just to bury it during the snyder verse reaction
The Ambrosia scene was genuinely heart wrenching the first time watching but there's some dark humor in it for sure on rewatch
What an episode web weaver got torn a new one 😂A train was such a goat with that entrance Ryan had a Homelander moment on TV and to conclude everything Starlight is now captured while a shape shifter can do whatever they want with her face
In that moment where Butcher passed out at the end, JDM reminded me of the hex tech thing punishing Victor in arcane. I don't think he's actually the "devil on butcher's shoulder" but the temp V growth presenting to butcher in a face he recognises.
I literally yelled "AHHHHH" at my tv like it was a marvel cameo when A-Train came in and saved Butcher and Starlight lmao
That twist at the end was absolutely insane, great TV
What do yall think is in the Maeve notebook that Sage purposefully left there?
I’ve seen some people saying they dislike this season but I’m having a blast each week!
Welp… That’s it for A-Train. What a run we had
Give Tilda Swinton her Emmy! 😂😂😂😂
@BlindWave 10-1 is the radio code you would say when you have to go to the restroom when on any set.
10:13 Top tier Attack of the Clones reference Aaron. 👏
19:42 “Meesa like diss.”
I'd argue Sage's plan is still in effect. If she is as smart as we are meant to believe, she'd likely have already assumed the A-train thing would come to light, plus she's aware of how irrational Homelander is, I feel like she's still manipulating the situation.
Anyone notice that Calvin drinks chocolate milk like Homelander drinks milk? 😅
The octopus' death was more brutal than I was expecting
@BlindWave Fun Fact: Antony Starr shared on a panel that Nathan Mitchell (Black Noir) may be borderline narcoleptic for real. He said that Nathan always dozes off in between takes out of the blue. I couldn't tell whether he was joking or being serious. They could've written into the story for fun.
I 100% bet butcher is getting permanent powers that he will have control over next week doubt he will not be in the final episode this season and he needs to be strong enough next season
Butcher is 100% going to be in the final episode. He is one of the main protagonists (along with Hughie) of the show lmao.
Butcher doesn't have V but his tumour does... I bet the virus would kill the tumour and save Butcher
@@the_archmaesterI’m pretty sure the tumor is the only thing in him that’s doing all of this
I wonder if somehow all this is still part of Sage's plan and she just wants to destroy Vaught. She used everyone so far, why not plan to use Homelander?
Frenchie wasted no time! That sawing scene was stressful lol
Sage was talking about Homelander always getting in his own way.
I wonder if Frank Oz made a “talk to the hand” joke in his career and if so, how many times?
Okay, things are looking good for A-Train. Almost too good so I'm still worried. He's fully redeemed himself, betrayed Homelander, became an actual hero, and got him and his family away. That's too good to be true but I'm proud of him 🙌 if he comes back, he's certainly dead though
Could it be Sage coming in at the end with Starlight? I doubt it, but I was thinking since we saw her with "the shooter" already this episode, she's the one that's been in contact with them. Sage getting the info where she is could be possible, and I assume she's gonna use Starlight to get back at Homelander now, or try to at least.
What's the music that plays at the end of these reactions? I remember it being used a lot in the first season or two of the show, but I don't know what it's called.
I honestly do not get where they are going with Sage. But i also think that that's probably the point. It might all still be part of Sage's plan altogether. But on the other hand, even she has been surprised by Homelander's unpredictability before, like when he lasered that girl in Ashley's office, so it might not. I'm really curious to where they are going with her.
And yes, to 30:20. It has been years since i saw Supernatural, but it immediately reminded me of the Shapeshifters in that, too. And i'm not sure, but i also think they had something similar to that "shutter"-effect with their eyes in Supernatural, too, didn't they? Or did their eyes have weird reflections in cameras? Something like that, but definitely something with the eyes. Of course, we also had other shapeshifting Supes in The Boys already, too.
Also, they are really taking the piss out of the whole MAGAsphere in this season. Love it.
You all assuming that Sage was ever on Homelanders side. I don't think her plan has been disrupted at all.
My guess is that Sage opened the door at that last scene. She's the mastermind of all of this, so I won't be surprised if Neuman is working with her behind Homelanders' back. "The only way women like us have ever gotten what we deserve? One hand in our pockets while the other slits their fucking throats."
I have to think that Sage getting fired is also part of the plan, and that even that remark at the end, that's a ploy where saying that manipulates Homelander's insecurity.
The one person you cant defeat line when i first heard it, i thought she was talking about Butcher but with multiple viewings, I actually think she meant Ryan, Homelander's son.
She was reffering to himself.
Waiting for the final Episode 8 reaction.
The Deep is ironically of the deep end
4:35, this is why I love this channel
You guys are forgetting that Starlight is a public figure, and that she publicly denounced Starlight and said she was going back to being Annie. So that was public info, not hard for the shapeshifter to use and play into it, considering how much practice they have had
i see everyone talking about sage meaning the only person homelander couldn’t defeat was himself but i genuinely thought she meant maeve. They showed the maeve journal for a reason and we know she’s still alive, powerless or not who knows.
I think it's either himself, Maeve or Ryan.
@@chiefbeef1236 we literally saw Maeve fight homelander In season three and he was stronger, I see no reason why she would’ve held back if she was capable of beating him
