Air ducts are usually coated with zinc which is the one thing Homelander can't see through, and I'd assume that the performance going on would've hindered his hearing since Starlight does the same thing in Season 3 to plot against him. When he gets Hughie properly in his sights is when MM pulls the reverse-trolley problem by blinding him

THANK YOU!!¡ I've seen so many people saying that was a plothole that Homelander couldn't see or hear him, but you explained well why he couldn't.

The bloody spike at the end of the episode is a lobotomy spike. Sage must lobotomize herself at the end of a stressful day in order to cope with the stress, and then by the morning she's probably fully healed.

[@KingstonHawke]

That’s exactly how I took it. She was watching mindless tv, eating bad food, and then being sexually attracted to a man with no brain. She clearly poked herself in the brain to dumb herself down temporarily. Gotta be super stressful being the smartest person on the planet. I wouldn’t be surprised if she had other messed up ways of coping with it also.

I knew a lobotomy was in the mix but I didn't think about her healing abilities. That makes sense.

[@Ren_Davis0531]

That bloody metal thing on the table is apparently used for lobotomies. The idea is that Sage is literally turning her brain off to relax. Similar to Homelander’s strength, Sage’s intelligence isolates her from others and she doesn’t know to how to relate. Turning her brain off is her coping mechanism. This also explains why she was watching trashy reality television that perpetuates negative black stereotypes and wanted to watch Transformers 2 with the racist robots. Why would someone who criticized Homelander, Vought, and Firecracker for their racial biases yet have no problem with those same biases overtly displayed in reality TV and Transformers 2.

[@Thleepricon]

Remember that Homelander can't see through Zinc, airducts are usually coated with zinc for anti-corrosion, so its actually explained in the lore.

[@Cbricklyne]

And does the lore explain why he couldn't hear Hughie with his super-hearing to tell where he was crawling in the vents even though he couldn't see him? After all, we HAVE seen him hearing people having conversations who are miles away (Becca and Dr. Park in Season 2 when she was trying to escape the Vought compound). Hughie was barely a couple of yards or hundreds of yards at most away.

[@Thleepricon]

@@Cbricklyne Cause he needs to hone in, just like Superman. He was also in mid conversation with three others, do you think he constantly hear everything around him in New York in a 4 block radius? that would turn him mad and it would just be a constant noise. Think next time.

[@Ren_Davis0531]

Loved the Willem Dafoe/Goblin parallels in this episode. From the sweat dropping from the vent to the Homelander talking to himselves in the mirror again. We even have a slight “back to formula” moment with “back to the start.”

[@dabbadonisthestout7284]

I’m calling it now, Jeffery dean morgan is another hallucination 😮

[@AzulApe]

Confronting a bully about how they treated you in the past doesn’t mean you “peaked” back then. What kind of gaslighting logic is that?

[@pippilpdlr]

It was definitely an odd take

[@em.415]

Confronting wasn’t the issue. She’s holding onto it, being petty and hurting other people in the process because of something that happened as a kid.

[@JackMValentine]

I typically read a few comments before I watch the video and this seemed like a really weird take. But watching it in context I get what Spidey meant. He said peaked but wasn't using it in the usual way. Pretty sure he meant more Arrested Development. Essentially Firecracker got stuck in that verses pagent mentality with Starlight. She never moved on or grew out of it. She just turned it into a career of social manipulation. Wrong word to use but there is only so much self correcting you can do in the moment.

[@LouBird]

Confronting a bully isn't all she's doing. She's creating a whole conspiracy cult just to take down a girl who was mean to her once as a kid. That's why Spidey said she peaked; who holds on to something that hard?

[@nathanj3528]

​@@LouBirdchildhood trauma isn't a joke.and starlight didn't just bully her, she ruined her entire life by spreading rumours. Which forced Firecracker to confront this all throughout her life. Is she going overboard with the conspiracy shit? Yeah. But saying she wasn't affected by whatever Starlight did is a terrible thing to say.

[@LouBird]

TIL that vents are coated in zinc. I don't think that's common knowledge, but makes sense why Homelander couldn't see him.

[@Cbricklyne]

And why couldn't he hear him? Doesn't he have super-hearing? HE can hear people having a conversation from miles away (Becca and Dr. Park in Season 2 when she was trying to get away), but he can't hear Hughie crawling through vents a couple of hundreds of yards away?

@@ВардотКапрелло Soldier Boy was kept in cryogenic freezing, preventing him from aging. He can very well age normally if he was let out to live his life. It seems Stormfront is the only case of a supe living incredibly long.

[@Ren_Davis0531]

I like the dynamic between Starlight and Firecracker in that Firecracker is the alt-right Starlight. They even have similar powersets with Starlight being way more powerful. You can tell that Firecracker is envious of the status that Starlight was able to attain ever since Starlight told that vicious lie that ruined Firecracker’s trajectory for success. She has fixated on that so much that she has resorted to peddling stories to the alt-right so she can still be an “icon.” It’s also ironic that Starlight spread a lie about Firecracker trading sexual favors to get ahead and Starlight was accused of that after she was sexually assaulted by The Deep. Hopefully this new dynamic brings out the best in both characters

[@KainErrow]

In regards Firecracker being so ruthlessly bullied at age 13, people need to remember that was during her formative years, and in a period of life when kids witness other kids getting away with things that as an adult would get them arrested or shamed out of the community. Obviously Firecracker is doing some bad stuff but I definitely support Starlight getting the shit kicked out of her over what she said.

[@piusdoe8984]

Not necessarily over what she said. But the effect it had on Firecrackers life. Visious horrible rumors like tht are fcked up. Starfire simply saying sorry is not enough. However, unfortunately, Firecrackers vendetta is objectively wrong and dangerous for so many people as well as estranging people from they're family. Selling people lies on top of her hatred

The three Homelander personalities do confirm one thing. He Genuinely cares about Ryan. Three voices. His anger/Paranoia, his humanity/empathy, his voice of Reason and drive. And you can acutally see those parts of him several times. You can see his love for Ryan where he looks like he is about to cry when he is scolding Ryan or when he meets the doctor who made him. Well his anger and sociopathic tendencies are always on display. And the last one we rarely see but it's prominent in a few moments. - His respect and acknowledgement of Soldier boy's strength as well as his fear from him. The only person he actually feared. - His respect for Edgar's bravery and intellect. - His respect and tolerance of Butcher. Not only Homelander doesn't instantly kill him when Butcher insults him on his face (something he nearly kills A-train for) but he considers him an equal and challenges him in S3. Hell even now he doesn't just kill him to stop Ryan from meeting him. It's like Yuujiro Hanma. He maybe arrogant but he can acknowledge others. Just give Anthony his Emmy.

I guess she basically makes herself dumb to quieten her thoughts. When you're smart it is hard not to actively think about everything and it must be excessively worse for her. 31:41 Yep, when he fought Annie before his heart gave out he zigzagged to avoid her light blasts. I think he could probably dodge Homelander quite well, but I doubt he could do anything to Homelander himself, so he would just be buying time until he runs out of stamina. 33:33 But how do you enforce your regulations? What if you have another Homelander and he just refuses to comply? Who's going to stop someone that is so strong, even among supes? There's not really a way to reasonably have supes be a thing if we think about it, because if there's supes, there's also super villains. It's inevitable and ultimately they'd do more damage than good. 43:33 I think they just want to make it clear who they're actually making fun of, since there's still those type of people watching who still somehow did not get it yet and think they're doing some "both sides" kinda shit.

[@cannedsquasher5923]

[@cannedsquasher5923]

They do take jabs at both sides. They focus on the right more cause imo it is much funnier. But they still take jabs at the left. The sad thing is you probably don't even realize it is a jab. Just one recent jab at the left I think episode 2 in the A Train movie set when the producer/director (don't remember his name). He mentions "sensitivity readers." This is a left creation. The jab is too show how out of touch and worthless people who claim to care about "sensitivity" are. To people like that it isn't actually that they care about the group but rather they care about using that group to achieve a goal. Both sides are stupid I just think the right is more stupid nowadays.

Now in the show. The Temp V is a good way to check your powers without getting permanently mutated. If it's useful you can use V to get them permanently, if it's not one dose won't do any harm. Now with Butcher and Hughie this creates a massive problem. They are Overpowered. Butcher was already strong enough as a human. With powers he would end the series. Remember, he almost gave Homelander a good fight. He would absolutely demolish every other Supe. It makes no sense for Butcher to not take Perma V. It's either risk dying from that or well die anyway. But for the sake of the story not ending in like 1 episode, we have to keep him human. As for Hughie, if I had his teleportation, Homelander would be chilling in Andromeda Galaxy.

I like the depth they’re adding to Starlights character. She is flawed, and that’s a good thing.

[@Zbeast5972]

Remember what Starlight did to Gecko? He remembered how she was back in the day too.

I went ice skating once. It was exactly like that.

What the heck is that thing on the table with Sister Sage and Deep? I thought it was a harpoon gun?

I think hughies mum is a hallucination, like butcher and becca

22:30 she killed the squid then fed it too him

[@ryanehredt1446]

X-ray vision is also quite thrown off by a variety of metals, helpful for looking through soft tissue sure, but with all the metal between him and Huge it's not going to do him any better than his normal vision would

[@EchanteDante]

That line from Homelander to Ryan “I gave you everything I ever wanted!“ it is so telling what kind of person Homelander is. Even someone else’s problems have to be related to him for him to even begin to try to comprehend.

[@K1ng0fGames_]

This is the best episode so far this season, but I'm really not liking the character regression for Frenchie, Kimiko and MM this season, it's so frustrating. I mean these past 3 seasons we've seen the relationship between Kimiko and Frenchie grow, especially last season when Kimiko spoke for the first time and and made the choice to get her powers after almost dying and losing Frenchie to do good. Frenchie walked away from his past and has tried to help Cherie walk away too so him bring a drugie again while Kimiko also finds ways to cope is out of character. Even if Frenchie has to confront his past in the form of Litttle Nina, he did not need another love interest. MM is acting all high and mighty like he hasn't on multiple occasions put himself and the others in a position of nearly getting killed. It feels like the character development for these 3 characters these past 3 seasons was undone and hit with a reset. But, I’m really enjoying watching Homelander’s, Ryan’s, Butcher's and A-train’s character/ storyline development so far. Butcher is doing right in opening up to Ryan rather than drugging him or trying to control him. What Ryan needs is what Homelander always wanted and that's genuine love and affection

[@curtiszyr]

Come on Guys season 1 deep found translucent dead remains in a box and it was revealed Homelander can’t see through zinc. 🤦🏾‍♂️

[@KainErrow]

18:56 I live for Rana’s reactions.

[@shaunyb0i]

Wasn't Sages behavior before Deeps entrance strange? Context clues folks.

[@maxtonlopez9375]

Hughie: what I really wanna know right now is… why? Daphne: Why what? Spidey: Are you kidding me?

[@jasonblack2477]

What's always with American hating on their own flag? Homelanders cape looks dope😂

[@Ren_Davis0531]

Sorry Rana, but I’m with Chris on rollerskating vs. iceskating. Way too much anxiety on those iceskating blades that I could hurt someone or they could hurt me. No thanks 😂.

[@azriellen8865]

I like how in the last episode, A-train is filming a movie with a white savior. His older brother (whose character he defends) also roasts him on his behavior. But in this episode. Mother's Milk (a black father) asks him to make a choice. It couldn't have been anyone else from the protagonist cast. Not black savior per se, but a shout out to black men and togetherness within a community. Also if you really look at it, those people died in the name of Jesus.

[@macuna1995]

Love Hughie's Dolly Parton shirt, totally hip. It's great getting back into this show.

[@nichescenes]

Homelander likely can’t tell from his heart beating fast trope wise cause they all beat fast around him and a train is super speed either his is abnormally slow or hyper fast just sitting around. Also homelander can’t see through zinc which is what the vents have. He smells and hears a lot of people in the area and isn’t that big on killing just people who annoy him as it waste time and effort if he does get caught as much as he says he doesn’t want government used to take him out as it would be a. Pain and they can hire supers that have had like the one who touches you which might not work but some can remove senses, trap you in nightmare, it was warned by shoulder boy who is similar to homelander so it would work on homelander or atleast something similar. They have ways to contain homelander if it was him vs world so he didn’t just fly and take out the boys as they work for government. If he hit hue on “accident” it’s fine

[@christopherking4932]

Awesome video.

[@Gosi88]

What’s the vent coated in deep? Zinc Homelander!

[@muthafukajones8114]

Correct !

[@Cbricklyne]

"And what's the one thing my super-hearing can't work through? Zin......Oh wait,......"

[@benedictkingdom4292]

Homelander can't tell if his heart is beating faster cause as a speedster, his heart is always beating fast

[@alwaysfiending]

There is a theory that Homelander couldn’t see Hughie through the vents because it contained zinc and in season 1 homelander revealed he can’t see through it

[@em.415]

I remember in season 1 that Homelander can’t see through certain metals. So maybe he couldn’t.

[@TheTNK97]

Im assuming those pipes Hughie was in were galvanized. So Homelander couldn’t see through them.

[@GenXeroFilms]

"You peaked at that age, though." What the fuck, Spidey?!

[@12chapin]

Hey guys 👋🏻. Here’s what they call a fun fact, both Homelander and Butcher were in Xena.

[@DDPK]

Do yall actually think singer didnt know what neuman was capable of? He was clearly taunting her. He wanted to get under her skin

[@manuelk1853]

Always people saying how much he sucks in the argument with Ryan at the end, while I feel actually kinda bad for Homelander. He wants his son to have things he's never had and actually want someone to love and care about, which he has in his son. It also surprises me that he isn't abusive against him, when you expect something different from Homelander.

[@EchanteDante]

I AM SO SCARED THEY ARE GOING TO KILL FRENCHIE!! He is the heart of the team in a way, he is distracted, not on his a game going into missions out of his mind on potentially LSD, etc and he feels guilty. Add in all of the talk with M.M. and Butcher about him going to get the boys killed. Because he isn’t all there and isn’t willing to do what it takes supposedly.

[@JayTheeA]

Just finished watching your Ep 2 reaction! PERFECT TIMING NORMIES! :)

[@juniorjunior2412]

I really hope they stop the whole Collin story line early on. Not because i have a problem with a two fictional male characters being together but because i cant even pretend to give a shit about Collin as a character. They really just dropped him in out of nowhere and expected anyone to give a fuck

[@Ziaotic]

they really don't tho, we give a fuck about Frenchie who gives a fuck about Colin. this is so common among TV shows when love interests are introduced.

[@Vixen1000]

​@@Ziaotic Exactly!! it's literally what every television show do, they bring in a new character or love story.

[@gibsonmunyi7225]

Thaaaaank you. I literally took a bathroom break during one o his scenes and didn't even bother pausing. That's how much I care for that storyline.

[@AtlantaGuns]

Homelander will be having firecracker’s milk soon 🤣

[@mathmexican4234]

I feel like this season we will get Homelander learning about how he was made, and we will see that the eggs they used were human and he will be upset he is part human and will have a breakdown.

[@Dark__Thoughts]

What? He's not just part human, he's fully human. What else would he be? An alien? Formed with animal cells? We already know who the sperm donor for him was and it is very likely that Stormfront might've been the donor mommy for the eggs, which would really fit into the whole mommy issues theme too.

[@marvymarv959]

Yeah I’m pretty sure he knows how he was made. In a lab with dna from different humans and the supe human Soldier Boy.

[@mathmexican4234]

@@marvymarv959 obviously he knows he was made in the lab, but I'm sure either finding out he was made from a Sup's eggs with soldier boy sperm or a regular human egg, or altered human eggs would all change his perspective in some way.

[@Dark__Thoughts]

​@@mathmexican4234 Have you not paid attention in season 3? Homelander already knows that he's Soldier Boy's genetic son. Soldier Boy literally told him that he jerked off into a cup for Vought.

[@cannedsquasher5923]

Well considering Vought specifically created Homelander to be the most powerful I doubt they used a normal human. I'm fairly certain he was created between 2 super. Soldier Boy and some unknown woman.

[@umangdeeprai]

Guys, I think they're killing Simon Pegg this season

[@powerofhopeeddie-_-24]

Probably A train

[@desmoove]

Pretty sure that bloody pen indicates that Sage killed Ashley because she was a loose end after witnessing Homelander kill that girl for contacting Starlighter. Also pretty sure that Sage has plans for killing Homelander because she sees herself as "Ceasar", not him. Either that or she's just a straight up apocalyptist who just doesn't see any point in the world in its current existence, herself included, and just wants to blow it all up. In her mind, the point of existence itself is illogical so therefore must be eliminated. She pretty much laid out her plan/point of view when Homelander "interviewed" her. There was a reason why Vought kept her in check.

[@tonybankse]

I don’t think its a plot hole especially when they have been establishing that homelanders aging rapidly i can suspend my belief that he wasn’t able to flesh out exactly where he was so aiming in the general direction was the best option..one that he probably wouldn’t care to admit

[@Nebuloid1]

Had to google "the masked singer", thought it was another supe that I somehow forgot about ( impossible, seen all of The Boys 6 times over...) Aha, reality tv, nope.

Based on the Insidious Franchise, a Red Door is never a good thing.
