It’s so weird the emotions this scene makes you feel. You actually see the human side of homelander when he relates to his son about the anxiety they both struggle with and he actually has somewhat of a father son moment with Ryan which I found quite touching then you remember homelanders a complete psycho and you have to question yourself and remember that he was raised in a lab and treated like crap as a kid. The scene as well where he’s teaching Ryan to shoot and he looks almost horrified by stormfronts white power talk also makes you question him for a bit.

[@AidanDownes_KH]

SHEDAN yeah that’s very true.

[@arthsvic6828]

I don't know where you people saw Homelander being horrified by any stormfront words... Here he's just figuring out how much she's method to get efforts from Ryan is smarter than his. The look he has when Ryan starts to show interest in what SF says is just a surprised look with a good-job-buddy taste. The only time he was "horrified" atm was during his discussion with Vogelbaum about his childhood and (*SPOILEEEEEER*) when he lost Ryan, and it's more deep anger than anything else. Homelander has no empathy AT ALL so why would he be horrified by some fascist speeches or by anything that doesn't concern him ? He's not even able to BE or FEEL horrified, even his good moods or smiles are fake because what he really is inside is angry, spiteful and rancorous.

[@elina6019]

he remembered that she had said that to him too perhaps it reminded him of Stillwell with the baby

[@Birthday888]

@@arthsvic6828 It's more like he doesn't understand or care about Stormfront's nazi ideology. He doesn't distinguish people by skin color because they're all beneath him in his mind. And he desperately wants Ryan to be like him, so he dislikes the fact that Stormfront is molding even a little part of his worldview because that's not how he sees the world. Hence why he seems uncomfortable in that scene.

Ryan is the only person to every try and care about Homelander for just being his dad. The doctors that raised him saw him as a test subject first. Stillwell was too afraid to ever love him like a mother. However, Ryan is still such an innocent child that he wants to see the best in him. Even if Homelander doesn’t realize it, he’s been trying to turn his son into him. The powers and the fame, that’s all he knows. But the opposite is happening. Ryan is teaching Homelander to be a father. Because Ryan isthe only person to every treat Homelander like a normal person. That is really what his greatest weakness is. Homelander deep down wants love. But he hides all of it under the power and the fame. All he desperately wants is for someone to love him as a man. As a boy that never had a family. But everyone is either to afraid, to intimidated or to confused to see it. Everyone except this little boy. And now that the only person to ever show him true love is gone. We can only expect the worst.

Someone's personal prejudices may not even affect how they treat other people. And such ignorance can be corrected with knowledge. But someone who directly acts to oppress and harm others has already arrived at causing harm. Racism is considered bad because it can lead to harming others. But being evil is even more directly correlated to harming others. Some racists are just misguided in their judgement about human racial differences, and have no desire to cause harm. But anyone who is an evildoer is actually committing evil acts. The reason for the aversion to racism is not that racial ignorance is intrinsically worse than other kinds of ignorance, it's that racism can turn to dehumanization or demonization of others. In other words, racism in it's full expression generally promotes evil. But people who are evil have already arrived at that point.

Stormfront is so proud of her probable son/grandson/lover being fatherly to her probable grandson/great-grandson.

[@lexisisk8079]

I can’t freaking tell if he actually cares and loves his son! Moments like this are very convincing

[@floridasoldat]

Even Homelander’s distaste for Stormfront’s nazi bullshit is god damn hilarious

[@skwisgar8840]

That’s why the wink right? Lol

[@jlogan2228]

the tragic part is........ryan may have been the only real chance Homelander had at redemption through training him and ryan teaching him that yea they may be superior but thats why they need to actually protect normal people and care for them

[@mushroom_man_jpg]

1:08 I love how even homelander is like "uhh... what?"

[@D1rt3nthu51ast]

Seeing how homelander talked with his son really makes a part of me wish he doesn’t turn into comic book homelander and instead actually become a good father but let’s be honest, this is the boys, and if you read the comic, you know damn well that there are no happy endings allowed in this universe

[@SilverMidas]

Welp, Hue ended up good)

[@giorgig4828]

Would be more interesting if he actually develops into a somewhat decent person but karma still catches up to him and he has a bad ending

[@LightninLewis]

@@giorgig4828 My prediction is that Homelander and Billy will realize they both want the same things...they both want to takedown Edgar and Vought. In the trailer Billy and Homelander are sitting at a table seemingly after a calm conversation bc Homelander is looking at him maybe in agreement, Billy smiles at him this is maybe the part when Billy and Homelander decide to team up.

[@johnnysalami7813]

I love how even homelander, the most psychotic superhero/villain to ever exist is like “what the fuck is this bitch talking about?”

[@bluerationality]

Even psycho-serial killers in real life were often normal fathers. They also often cared about their child's perception of them.

[@DarkAnims]

4:19 actually wholesome scene ❤

[@THE410KiNG]

Crazy he’s actually a decent father here

[@xfrog575]

Out of all that shit Homelander has done at least he's a good father

[@thelastof]

Bro the deep action figure being the target is hilarious I love when writers think like this to get laughs 😂

You know what? I respect Homelander for questioning the "white genocide" line, lol

[@ChiefKhem]

@Achilles The Great Black genocide is thing, and I haven’t seen news about people being killed for being white *yet* , just because the white population going down, doesn’t mean “genocide” but with black people it’s different, in the Dominican Republic people will get shot down or arrested en masse and stuff like that might be happening in other countries and we might not even know! Killed just because they’re a bit darker than the other people. And are we gonna forget about cops killing black people and slavery happening in America only a few decades ago? Stop being ignorant, go spit that “black genocide isn’t real” rhetoric somewhere else. *L*

[@rebelfriend1818]

@@ChiefKhem You really need to read some history books. After the Haitian revolution, the first ruler of Haiti (Jean-Jacques Dessalines) organised a white genocide. From wikipedia: "After the defeat of French royalists during the Haitian Revolution, Dessalines ordered all whites to be killed in the new Haiti, to try to ensure the survival of the republic as a nation."

@@ChiefKhem you call him ignorant huh? Quite ironic.

[@RedfishCarolina]

I like how they give us little teases that Homelander might, just maybe, have a tiny amount of decency and honor trying to show itself in how he treats Ryan. But we all know he's eventually going to see Ryan as nothing but another competitor.

[@TheFunnyGuy9000]

Ryan vs Homelander

[@hankenshin9180]

Superman: son you are gonna be the next Superman, when I'm dead. Omnima: son we will exterminate the world together, if they do not, come with us. Homelander:..... Chaos

[@williamwong4040]

I must say even though Homelander is a brutal mass murderer and megalomaniac he sure is a better parent than most I know.

Homelander is superman, unless they do a time skip in Season 3 and make Ryan into Superman.

Na Superman is the original archetype of your ideally moral genuine good guy, million dollar smile chad-looking hero, Homelander is all that but with an interesting twist that being he’s a sociopath

in all honesty homelander is weirdly a decent father, It kinda makes sense considering he grew up without a father and he probably wants ryan to have a better childhood

[@Arca1D]

man, i want to see homelander beeing a good dad. u know story like he became soft to his family but still ruthless to other, that will be nice. a story from a man without nothing but Ego, to have something to protect to beside his own ego.
