The spoof of the He Gets Us commercial with Hozier Take Me to Church was spot on. First time I've busted out laughing this season. The old man balls were funny as well.

This one episode made up for the entire season and had lots more complexity and double crossing and all that.

Not sure how they are going to wrap this up in two episodes other than Homelander killing himself. Supe suicide would be an interesting ending.

Although Soldier Boy can take his super power. Not sure how that worked regarding Bombsight...

Finally, an episode in the final season that moves the story forward in a big way. Ready for these last two episodes!

One more note, I thought Paul Reiser's season with Homelander was fantastic. Reiser should get a Emmy "guest appearance" nod for that. He's had a really interesting late-career swerve with his roles on this and Stranger Things.

He was also great in The Kominsky Method with Micheal Douglas.

So I admittedly may have missed it, but what happened to Butcher's laser beam powers from season 3? He and Homelander had that fight at Herogasm and now he just uses the tentacle thing that has only proven effective against Victoria. Did that just go away or is that another plot hole this season?

The lasers were a temporary power. The tentacles are a mutation from taking the temp V too many times. The plot hole is that it seemed like it was about to kill him and he could barely walk, and now he seems just fine, while still dying according to Homelander.

Ok that makes sense. So did he get full time powers because he took more doses than Hughie because I remember them both taking multiple? I need to go back and rewatch season 3 it sounds like. But yes I think Butcher had said he had a few months to live yet this season is at least a year since season 3 timeline so somehow he's still kicking.

Yeah, it certainly seemed like Butcher was going to drop dead at the end of Season 4, then he "embraced the power" or something and now seems borderline unstoppable. Hughie appears to have no residual damage other than a bad haircut and dating a hunk of plastic.

Watched the trailer for the next episode and will not be happy if the ****** gen v characters show up and do anything other than get killed in the most ridiculous ways

I don't think you have to spoiler tag that the gen V kids suck. I want Butcher to send them alll charging through a door and Homelander lasers all of their heads off.

I love that the Deep has survived this entire chaos. The 7 is now the 3 - him, Homelander, and Soldier Boy. The Deep is like Tom Wamsgams taking over at the end of Succession.

Well the fact that they are shown in the trailer and will be in the next episode is certainly spoilerish.
