Meanwhile, Billy scales the walls of Becca's compound, successfully sneaking into the back of her car and getting his chance at an actual reunion.
MM is less into the idea of her and Hughie sharing a room when they stop at a motel, but he can't stop them from having a very cute moment at the vending machine followed by a very sexy moment in her motel room.

(Even if they do bond over their surprisingly strong knowledge of Billy Joel lyrics.) But when they make a donut stop, it's a euphoric experience for Annie, thanks to memories of her father, and she gets MM talking about his own father, who loved Baskin Robbins free samples - a bonding moment for the two of them. The road trip down to South Carolina is a bit awkward, since Mother's Milk is less than thrilled about riding with a tagged supe - not to mention playing third wheel to the show's most uncertain couple. She's thus on edge when meeting Hughie in Central Park to catch up, but she doesn't feel like she can go back to her ostensible "home," so Hughie convinces Mother's Milk to let her come along on their road trip to South Carolina to look for Liberty. (Is Doppelganger non-binary? They're certainly pansexual.)īack at the Vought tower, Homelander confronts Starlight ( Erin Moriarty) over her failure to kill Hughie ( Jack Quaid), shoving her up against the wall of an elevator and nearly killing her. While Stormfront ( Aya Cash) uses her newfound influence to encourage citizens to rally together, Homelander ( Antony Starr) indulges in a pretty unique form of self-care - flying to a remote cabin to visit "Madelyn." It's lovely to see Elisabeth Shue return - though it's an illusion created by Doppelganger ( Dan Darin-Zanco), a sometimes flimsy one, even though s/he's very good at telling Homelander exactly what he needs to hear. So, of course, Billy immediately decides to find her, putting a very reluctant Mother's Milk in charge.
She also gives Billy the information about Becca's ( Shantel VanSanten) location, out of guilt for her past actions, even though Billy wasn't able to deliver Kenji as originally planned. Grace slips Billy a '70s ad featuring the mysterious Liberty, who the recently head-exploded Susan Raynor had been investigating, and tells Billy to send Mother's Milk ( Laz Alonso) down to South Carolina to investigate. Frenchie's ( Tomer Capon) getting high and trying to kiss Kimiko ( Karen Fukuhara), Kimiko is swiftly rejecting him, and Billy ( Karl Urban) is meeting with Grace ( Laila Robins) at what has now become a memorial to the people killed and hurt in the housing project.
Which might be exactly what The Deep needs.īeyond these interstitials, things really begin with the Boys reeling from the murder of Kenji. Kevin "thinks" he gets to choose from these nice young women, but it's Carol ( Jessica Hecht) who tells him who he's choosing - and she chooses perhaps the most intense of the options, but one who believes that love means holding onto someone into death. To be clear, the reason for the When Harry Met Sally comparison is that "Nothing Like It In the World" is punctuated by interstitials that invoke but with what, we learn, are essentially wife candidates auditioning to help rehabilitate The Deep's ( Chace Crawford) image. Of course, there were no scenes in When Harry Met Sally where people debate about the grossest candy bars or a doppelganger of one character offers to give the original a blowjob, but hey, Rob Reiner and Nora Ephron were working with what they had. It's a surprisingly romantic episode of The Boys this week - not only do two different couples find a way to reconnect (at least briefly), but the whole thing is structured as an homage to When Harry Met Sally.
