Season 4 has ended, and there is too much ground to cover here. The season finale brought together quite a few twists and turns, some major political upheavals, some major deaths, and the titular Boys once again finding themselves nowhere close to defeating Homelander (Antony Starr), particularly after one of them betrays the whole group. Before we proceed, let’s warn you that the following article will be filled with major spoilers about the eighth episode of S4, which is also its final episode.
. So what happens here? There is a failed assassination attempt on US President Singer (Jim Beaver), with Homelander doing his best to bring about a political upheaval in the country, starting with murder and mayhem at Vought. He also pushes VP Victoria Neuman to the corner so much that she seeks out The Boys' help.
Too bad how it turned out for her. Butcher (Karl Urban) is in hospital, still pestered by his mental alter-ego Kessler (Jeffrey Dean Morgan), and Ryan (Cameron Crovetti) seeks him out, only to find out what plans Butcher and Mallory (Laila Robins) have in store for him. That also doesn’t go down well.
Towards the final episodes, there are some major political upheavals after a certain 'assassination,' and The Boys are now in a deeper mess than they ever were. So is the United States of America—they just don’t know it yet. There are also some excellent performances on display particularly from Erin Moriarty, Karl Urban, Jack Quaid, Claudia Doumit and Antony Starr.
