Transcripts
but don't you worry daddy's home daddy's
home daddy's home and it's going to be a
surprise I got all sorts of surprises to
roll out with this being the penultimate
season of the boys there's a lot of
setting up going on first of all sage
has now been fired with all that
knowledge of homelander plan not only
that she knows how to cure butcher but
even after being fired we're still
seeing her plan take place where she
uses a shape shifter got to end at the
sage
there perfect choice for the
job I feel like that's likely Sage at
the end there because I think they could
reveal that Sage somewhat planned to
sabotage homelander or at least is now
going along with her own plan now that
she's fired and of course a big
highlight of this episode was the fight
scene sure you ain't too busy tongue
lushing your octopus but no I never and
it was really good but I think something
this episode suffered with is copout I
kept wanting to save certain characters
for later run perhaps giving them that
fate later but I think it was noticeably
silly with the Deep why would you not
take him out why I'll be back up here in
no time so let's go he's right there
let's do him you know how butcher cuz I
don't you've got a soup with super
strength right there I get that Noah
could have woken up by the time they got
to him but the Deep was right there he
is really funny I do like him but it's a
thing of if you had asked me do I want
another season of sea animal jokes or
because they put him in this situation
where he really should have died to kill
K him right there and then I would have
chosen the latter the way I would
rationalize it is they said recently in
the last two episodes for some reason
she's not got her full powers and even
though she did this it was implied she
might not be as strong why want you come
over here and try and suck her punch me
now B so I'm just going to write it off
as that it's even more annoying when
they do the thing with Kimo where they
think that you're going to think she's
going to die for the 50th time even when
this was something that could kill soups
I I still wasn't as worried I'd be more
excited if they actually just killed her
like I said in my last video Frenchie
has been a bit of a downside this SE
season but he was a lot better I mean
we're still seeing scenes with these two
characters about their past literally
more than any other character I think
these are two in the show I would least
like to see the past of I don't care if
You' got Frenchie kissing someone seeing
someone from his past hallucinating
whatever it is it tends to be a really
low point and something cool and
exciting is happening and you get cut
back to
that fun win oh no she's upset with them
again we've got to watch 50 minutes of
them making up if they cut it down to 2
minutes an episode it would be good we
also got to see even more of butcher's
power that veed up tumor in his head he
continues to talk to it a lot like Eddie
Brook does to Venom I am inside your
head all right you know what enough for
the silent treatment you stubborn I am
done around with you he's still unable
to summon it
himself whatever you did to
you do again I think had the actually
come really close to killing him then it
would have saved him and it seemed
seemed to just punish butcher for not
listening to him here he is were you
when I needed you silent treatment goes
both ways so perhaps if butcher does
follow that darker path and does listen
that's when the powers will come out it
seems to me that's where it's probably
going to have him basically become that
selfish person butcher was in the comics
it's almost like this tumor is what they
needed in the show to have him be like
that because I do think he is that much
better and different in the show you
can't really see this guy here doing
that same stuff he did in the comics at
least towards the end but then whenever
he sees Keesler he activates he's a
villain he's well funnily enough a bit
like Negan if your love was so perfect
and pure why'd you that waitress you
know you keep saying that you're doing
all this to honor Becca's memory never
did that when she was alive I think it
convolutes buta a bit to reveal after
four seasons that he was actually
unfaithful to his wife now he says it
was because of the drink either way we
already knew butcher was a bad guy I
don't think it was needed it's similar
to them now making Frenchie all of a
sudden feel bad after four seasons I
just think why now I mean at first I
thought Frenchie feeling like that was
still maybe have that be his Escape
Route but he's back at it but the way
that I would interpret that is this
thing in his head is just bringing up
all the things that he's done all the
dark stuff it's not just to make butcher
look at himself differently it's so that
we do this guy comes along and peels
back all this stuff about butcher we
didn't even know that's why he's hearing
it from a vision of Joe Keesler this guy
that he hurt people with he said after
that night he did it he quit the boo
he's drinking when he passes out it's
smothering him in every bit of Darkness
he's ever done in this episode he
resisted it he completely ignored kzla
and what was the result he passed out
unless he succumbs to it unless he
listens it won't save him so it seems
like this tricky situation where he
either gets corrupted by it becomes bad
or dies and of course Ryan spoke out on
live TV n is why I got faith in the
kid apart from that one scene where he
enjoyed being like homelander for a bit
and he encouraged it there's not been
one second where Ryan's been at V that
he's enjoyed it and this seemed to be
the final straw so I don't know if I see
an ending to the show where Ryan becomes
the new homelander this kid flying about
doing everyone I still see it as
homelander being the one to just go mad
to eventually completely break that's
what all the white noise has been about
the te eyes I think Ryan will die or
join butcher before that happens
meanwhile mm has sent his family to Biz
they say a lot two one way tickets to B
you and J need flights are the night you
think I don't want to just piece out the
b you think homelander F and all of is
ain't coming to B even back in season 1
when John car espacito first appeared as
Stan Edo that's your floor and I'm going
to want you to start riding shotgun on
my meetings hey don't go on my
retirement yet just saying someone needs
to run this sure when I mov to bise now
bise is famously known to be Saul
Goodman's metaphor for death you given
any thought to uh sending him on a trip
to bise bise yeah bise you know where uh
where Mike went to off on a trip to bise
so you better not be saying what I think
you're saying send him to bise I'll send
you to bise now sure it's just a funny
little reference an Easter egg apart
from this episode we've just seen mm
Ashley and Newman refuse opportunities
to walk away maybe one day maybe what
the hell is that supposed to mean Marvin
maybe I got to go babe Marin wait and if
you're even like 1% of the person that I
knew then I don't think you really want
to do this you can still step back Vic
it's not too late thanks for coming by
anywhere but let's
go I can't she looks back at a picture
of herself presumably in Florence where
she spoke about running off too earlier
in the episode and it's so clear she's
just turned her back on it she will
never go back there and I don't think it
even matters what terms she's on with
homelander good bad scared with her I've
always just seen as it being this tragic
thing where she never left she kept
being this person kept putting vult
above being a good person and she's
going to get caught in homelanders Wrath
when he inevitably snaps I mean she's
always been the director the manager of
stuff telling the heroes to do stuff
they don't want to do of course he's
going to go mad on because the way they
did this scene I think this was her last
opportunity in this episode at least
they played with at train quite safely
after this scene he disappeared with his
family the next episode is called
assassination run of course I see it
more referencing homeland's plan as he's
essentially running to be the next
leader of the US but it could be an
ambiguous title where run connects to at
Tran they've now got kimiko's leg and
from there can make the virus strong
enough to kill homelander although right
now they said just Newman and it ended
almost overly positive why all the Grim
faces done more with less like they're
really going to stop homelander like the
next episode won't leave us on a big
Cliffhanger to lead into and hype up the
final season I think way more will die
in the final season but that's what I
got from this episode I would prefer a
bit more to happen it was more of a
bridge but it was good what do you think
do you think anyone could die in the
finale if so who what do you think is
going to happen let me know what you
think down below and of course press the
like button on the video If you enjoyed
it subscribe if you're new thank you for
watching I'll see you soon merry
Christmas atrian oh Merry Christmas Ryan
