![]() ![]() There’s a vague reference to a Mallory, whose kids Frenchie perhaps killed or brought harm to, which appears to have caused this rift. This, of course, immediately backfires when the two reunite and get into a scrap in the back of the van. Just like his offhand lie about Frenchie not being involved will surely get him into no immediate trouble… Assembling the Team He also neglects to tell Mother’s Milk how exactly Hughie managed to off Translucent, which I’m sure will have no repercussions down the line. If it wasn’t already apparent, it’s here that we get a strong sense of how much Billy is stringing Hughie along, opportunistically taking advantage of his situation to add another weapon to his arsenal. But as Billy tells him of Hughie, the kid who took out a Supe, Mother’s Milk becomes interested. He’s yet another of Billy’s old friends, now working as a prison guard and harboring some resentment towards the lovable rogue. Which is where Mother’s Milk, a former Supe hunter, comes in. Long enough to form a team capable of taking out the whole lot of them-from the Seven to Vought’s upper management. Homelander will be on their tales soon enough, says Billy, but at least they can stall him for the time being. But they’re still faced with a problem-the dead Supe was invulnerable, meaning his remains are too, making the disposal of them particularly difficult. ![]() It’s appropriately gruesome, with his blood and guts adorning the walls of Frenchie’s hideout (and Hughie’s face). We open the episode though, on the extensive clean up that follows Translucent’s murder. And finally, it’s where Homelander and Billy glance one another in the crowd, each assuring the other that it’s on. While for Starlight, it’s the unveiling of her new look, one she feels uncomfortable in but her bosses assure her is empowering. No less, the same one the speedster was loaded up on when he killed Robin. After all, the second-fastest man alive doesn’t exactly have the same ring to it and his loss will likely result in his replacement on the team.įor the titular Boys, now joined by retired Supe hunter Mother’s Milk ( Laz Alonso), the race is where they plan to steal Compound V from A-Train, revealed here to be a performance-enhancing drug. For A-Train, his future in the Seven rests upon winning this race. It’s here that all the main players sync up and The Boys actually starts to settle into a groove. The major storyline’s of this episode all converge at one point-the race between disgraced A-Train and newcomer Shockwave ( Mishka Thébaud). It still falls victim to some of the show’s less favorable qualities, but after the credits rolled, I found myself genuinely intrigued and, dare I say it, excited to see where this goes next. After some false starts, “Get Some” solidifies the mission statement of the show, pushes our established characters in new directions and broadens the scope of the world. Well, well, well, if it isn’t a pretty damn solid episode of The Boys. ![]()
