Loved how Homelander reacted to hearing “John” the same way Voldemort reacted to hearing “Tom”. Super poignant, the impact that names have on the psyche of a villain’s sense of self and identity.

[@juliacervantes7621]

This is a great comparison omg

[@djhype107]

Fun fact, waaaayyyyy back in season 1, when Homelander interrogates Vogelabum about his son dying, Vogelbaum lies and says the fetus killed the mother in a horrific brutal manner. The reason Vogelbaum got away with lying to Homelander without Homelander detecting he lied (with a rising heartbeat) is because Vogelbaum was just imagining Homelander’s birth in his mind when talking about Ryan’s birth. The female doctor confirms that story here, with the horrific ethereal story of Homelander killing the surrogate.

[@ChessKing-ev8km]

It's also possible to lie without any iregularties anyways. This is why "lie detector tests" are dismissable in court. Being nervous in an interview environment can cause many false positives for truths as well. Myth busters tested it and they discovered if you simply think of a true thing and answer, you'll almost always pass.

[@bastianena]

Surreal maybe, but not ethereal.

[@djhype107]

@@bastianena ethereal adjective ethe·​re·​al i-ˈthir-ē-əl Synonyms of ethereal 1 a : of or relating to the regions beyond the earth. The Doctor described the birth as that of a creature of myth, I’d say mythical is pretty other worldly like the definition implies

[@DR.DisInfect]

Fun fact but not accurate

[@LiveEnd06]

That makes zero sense. The entire point of Ryan being special is that he's the first born supe. Key word there: FIRST. Homelander wasn't born a supe, he was still pumped full of V as a baby just like everyone else, so Barbara (that female doctor) still lied about his birth; he didn't laser out of someone's stomach and fly out, it's all still manipulation.

I would like to point out something that I think was misinterpreted.

When his father wakes up even he was surprised. Why would he be surprised if HE dosed him? Maybe it was his Mom, or someone else, but I definitely don’t think it was Hughie.

[@nate5371]

It was his mom. Not sure why NR just skimmed over that

[@bmo5852]

16:35. I think this is actually a brilliantly layered callback because I swear that is exactly the story Vogelbaum told Homelander about Ryan's birth back in Season 1. It also somewhat explains why Homelander didn't figure out Vogelbaum was lying until Madeline told him a story that didn't match up. Vogelbaum was speaking from Memory, he was just talking about John's birth not Ryan's

[@LiveEnd06]

Ryan is the first naturally born supe. This has been known since season 1, so how is Ryan the first born supe if Homelander was a supe at birth too? It's far more likely that both stories are still nothing but a lie trying to manipulate Homelander. Plus as story writing goes, going back and using a story that was a lie in a similar situation is trying to point us in the same direction it did before.
