first half of the episode i was so locked in, it was very fun.. but by the end of it im gnawing on my hands why do we KEEP going back to vought rising set up :,( i don’t care :,( also it feels like every time the writers have had to set up solider boy having to make a dramatic decision (this goes back to s3 mind u), every time, they go “hm what if he does the exact OPPOSITE of what makes sense just like. just cuz” and it feels like im missing something deeper, but i don’t know if i actually am?? it feels very dumb. maybe im just mad that now i can see theyre literally only going to bring in marie to fix this problem and nothing else by the end 💔 but . soldier boy can go from almost chill with homelander to hating him to chill again in one episode and after like the 6th time it gets a little exhausting , i guess. also sage not seeing this potentially happening is so cap what

gen v cancellation making me soooo mad like we lost so much fun character work … i could talk about each individual character at annoying length but most of all im just really mad sam didn’t get more time. i loved seeing schizophrenia be adapted creatively with empathy for how frightening it must be for him, i wanted to see him grapple with his actions and reality more so badly. like he was silly and scary and genuinely really sweet, i loved every glimpse inside his head we got, & asa germann did a great job balancing his emotions and nuances. im just so sad we lost such compelling character work without any of the arcs properly being completed
