watching her just get torn in half was horrifying, butcher fucked the boys over to satisfy his murder boner

He just watched his surrogate son casually murder the closest thing he had to a grandma because she was in his way, dude's gone all-in on the war

[–] citrussy_capybara@hexbear.net 8 points 2 months ago (1 children)

she wasn’t “casually in his way” she was going for the button that slammed a door shut and released gas to kill him and his dad, after baiting him into a trap

it would be a lot to expect of a kid to handle that well and just like, speed out, leaving his already dying dad to get killed in the trap, even if it would have been the better move

It was knockout gas, but your point stands.

[–] FourteenEyes@hexbear.net 4 points 2 months ago

It was halothane which is odd because that shit didn't affect Soldier Boy at all, they needed Novichok just to keep him immobile

[–] citrussy_capybara@hexbear.net 4 points 2 months ago (1 children)

that makes more sense since it seemed odd they had a take out homelander gas and didn’t have a plan to use it, the dialogue and reactions made it seem more sinister

[–] Storm@hexbear.net 3 points 2 months ago

The knockout gas is a pretty powerful tool though. Can homelander drown?

To be fair to Ryan, he was a traumatized kid with powers he couldn't control, who up to that point was living at Disney headquarters under the supervision of his abusive father.

Grace was standing in his way after revealing a threat on top of even more traumatizing information.

I wouldn't say it was casual murder, but it was enough for Butcher to lose faith in him.

[–] citrussy_capybara@hexbear.net 4 points 2 months ago

yes, not casual murder, he already felt bad accidentally killing the actor in the staged first heroism, don’t think he meant to kill her and imagine he’ll be dealing with further trauma killing a grandmotherly figure next season

[–] blakeus12@hexbear.net 3 points 2 months ago

yeah the whole situation is so fucked. the boys are just cooked

Unfortunately, her days were numbered when it was revealed AOC exists in the setting

[–] barrbaric@hexbear.net 8 points 2 months ago

The show is sure trying to make me care about somebody who was going to commit genocide being killed and I have to say it's doing a bad job. "Boohoo what if by killing Hitler we're just as bad as Hitler?" Shut the fuck up Hughie that's a worse take than MM having an Obama portrait on his wall right underneath a black panthers banner WHILE WORKING FOR THE FUCKING CIA.

At this point I might be tuning in just to see which legend MM is repping each week.

With the black panther breakfast shirt and dead prez, I'd like to imagine someone in costumes is radical. But, then I just realized why he's wearing a dead prez shirt this episode and it's obviously just aesthetics.

Did not expect Neuman to go out in such a horrifying way, but then again it is The Boys. I did like that everything kind of went tits up in ways I did not expect, next season should be fun.

Also, they made my boy a cop!
