The Boys

Yo, I am so psyched for Invisible Force 2.

Please. Invisible Force 1 was lame.

I'm all about Rising Tide.

Rising Tide? The Deep?

-Uh-huh. -Translucent could kick the Deep's ass.

How? He's invisible.

That's, like, all he's got. That's it.

Exactly. He sneaks up on the Deep,

and then boom, motherfucker!

-Sit down. -Until the Deep makes a shark

bite Translucent's dick off.

How's he gonna find his dick? It's invisible.

Holy shit.

-(grunts) -Benjy!

Get up. Get up, get up, get up.

Come on, Benjy. Come on, come on.

Stay back.

Just stay the fuck back.

What are you smiling at?

Homelander?

You boys okay?

Can I... can I get a selfie?

Course you can.

The Seven's Queen Maeve and Homelander

made another heroic save today,

stopping a hijacked armored truck

on the streets of Brooklyn,

then staying behind for a photo op

-with some very lucky fans. -Nice to meet you.

-Jean? -Thanks, Jennifer. And now...

So, this is pretty much

everything in one. Bluetooth speakers.

It's in stereo, so you can put it

all around your living room, have some fun with it.

You said you have a standard cable box, right?

-Uh-huh. -Okay, then I need to get you an audio transmitter,

aptX Low Latency.

It makes it so there's less audio lag,

and it's got a standard optical in.

And let's hook you up with thousand-meg HDMI.

Let's go with this one.

Uh, it costs a little bit more,

but the carbon's way more conductive.

Hey, Gary. Um...

-I really need to talk to you about something. -Later, kid.

Okay. Cool.

Later-- you want, like... want, like, 30-30 minutes?

Like, a solid 45?

Excuse me, sir?

Hi. I'd like to make an appointment

for you to come over and...

lay some cable.

Okay. Uh... oh, Robin.

Oh, dear, dear, Robin.

Um, that doesn't mean what you think it means.

Um, "laying cable" means sex.

No, "laying pipe" means sex.

"Laying cable" means

you want me to come over to your house

-and just take a big, old shit. -(chuckles)

-That's disgusting. -Well, okay.

But you... Who-who said it, though?

Okay. Are you ready? Despite your best efforts,

I'm actually still hungry.

-I'm actually more hungry now. -(laughs)

-Where are we gonna go after all this hot talk? -I don't know.

-You know? -More importantly, where are we gonna go

-to lay some cable afterwards? -(laughs)

Geez.

So, did you ask him?

-Who? -Gary.

Did you ask Gary for the raise?

Yeah. Yeah. It was-- it was a...

Look, it was a crazy day, and-and he was super busy,

but tomorrow for sure. Yes.

Okay.

What was I supposed to do, kick his door down?

Like Homelander?

I said "okay."

Yeah, but you didn't mean it.

Hey, I see the look.

I see it. Come on.

This is like when we started dating.

I don't think that's... I don't think that's true.

Dude, I had to ask you out.

Well, excuse me for waiting.

You ever hear of chivalry?

Listen, this is about you getting what you deserve.

I'm killing myself at school

because I think it's gonna be worth it for both of us.

You know, if we move in together.

Wait, what? What? W-W-Wait. Hey, hey, hey.

Hey, hey. What was that?

What'd you just say?

Well, I mean, we can't keep, you know, laying pipe

at your dad's place.

Trying to be all quiet.

Staring up at that dumb Billy Joel post...

-...poster. -Hey.

Don't you ever besmirch Billy Jo...

I can't stop. I can't stop. I can't stop. I can't stop.

Can't stop. Can't stop.

Robin?

Robin?

Robin!

: Robin!

Let the energy go through the wall.

I am Starlight.

I'm 110 pounds, and I'm five foot six.

Turn around, please.

Okay. Let's see it, dear.

-You should look away. -Sorry?

You should turn away from the camera,

and you should close your eyes, or else I'll blind you.

All right.

Okay, go ahead.

I am so sorry.

Are you all right?

I was born Super-Abled.

Uh, my mom was thrilled.

She took me to all the little miss hero pageants,

but I hated it.

Ugh, I mean, I can still...

smell the hairspray.

Uh, but... (clears throat)

...at the Q and A, they always asked me what my wish was,

and I always said, "to save the world."

And the judges just chuckled

like it was cute.

But it wasn't a joke to me.

Since when did "hopeful" and "naive"

become the same thing?

I mean, why would you get into this business

if not to save the world?

That's all I have ever wanted.

And that's why I've always wanted

to be in The Seven.

Thanks, Jennifer.

Thought Robin's service was nice.

Did you see how many people came?

Wow.

Lot of respect for that girl.

Lot of love in the room.

And the spread. What a spread.

Just really nice.

That does not begin to convey

the terrible regret...

Aw, geez. Maybe there's a movie on.

-No, keep it. -No, we can switch it.

-Keep it. -(clears throat)

...awful, tragic loss.

My deepest condolences to Robin Ward's family.

I was chasing these bank robbers.

She just stepped in the middle of the street,

and I-I couldn't...

Middle of the...

She was a half step off the fucking curb.

Oh, now, come on, Hughie.

Just, uh, don't get upset, okay? Just...

He knows.

...swift, thoughtful attention...

Now I think that A-Train would like to get back to work.

Everyone at Vought is just...

just wrecked about Robin.

Now, you two weren't married, and look,

technically, there's no legal claim.

But...

Vought wants to do the right thing:

offer you $45,000 in restitution.

All you have to do is sign

right here,

and I'll offer you the check.

This is a confidentiality agreement.

It's a boilerplate NDA.

I sign this, and...

I can't talk about it?

Have to pretend like it didn't happen,

like I wasn't holding Robin's arms in my hands?

Look, I know you're upset,

but we're just trying to help.

Then say you're sorry.

Excuse me?

I mean, you people say "our condolences"

and "my sympathies" and "our regrets,"

but nobody can look me in the fucking eye

and say "I'm sorry."

I'm not signing anything. Get out.

I said get the hell out!

You okay?

As I said, boilerplate NDA, really.

Pretty standard stuff.
