Homelander Says Ryan What You Think | Ryan Said Its Just Super School | The Boys Season 4 Episode 5

The fact that not only Ryan but some people in the comments are falling for Homelander's words lmao

Lol he kept the keys.

Did this kids balls drop overnight?? 🤨

I broke out into tears when Ryan walked out still having the wallet and car keys 😂

Does Four Eyes know Homelander's kill count?

That BS loving father act Homelander puts on and Ryan buying into it is pretty annoying

I'm afraid Ryan is gonna die. And both Butcher & Homelander will unleash hell in s5
"Scorched Earth" after all......

W ryan

This is actually horrifying, because Vought's control mechanism just failed.
They tried to contain him by getting him to need love and approval, but now that he needs it from just his son, if his son is corrupt, then they're right back to square one with him lasering his way out of the womb.
Homelander didn't change or overcome his nature. He just transferred the peer group he wants approval from.

dawg i wouldnt wish any teenager to do any acting if it means their voice cracks everytime 😭😭

Homelander saying, "I don't want to manipulate you" is truly diabolical as he is actually manipulating Ryan into trusting him. Brilliant antagonist.

Respect to this kid for going through pubert on camera.

Godzilla had a stroke trying to read the title and fuckin died

I don't think Homelander will ever be redeemed but he'll probably have more conflicts about forcing his idealized vision onto Ryan. Ryan will be better than both Homelander and Billy Butcher, being a proper hero.

Don't be fooled. Once Homelander realizes Ryan will inevitably replace him, he will resent his own son through an atomic midlife crisis. Homelander says he wants a legacy, but it's only if Ryan essentially becomes him. Once the thought of stepping down hits John, he'll turn on Ryan.

Antony Starr is unquestionably the MVP of the show

It's messed up cause this asshole deserved it and Ryan did good in this episode BUT we all know that he's definitely gonna go on a power trip and eventually hurt someone who didn't deserve it. Also I'm pretty sure the way Homelander and Ryan's relationship will come to end will be when Butcher inevitably reveals what Homelander did to Becca

Was this targeted at Gen V? Why are we doing super school a teen show? It's stupid.

Ryan's right

The boys is just the tragedy of homelander

I've stopped caring what other people think, so I hope everyone is OK with that.

Ryan better not mention butcher again

The more homelander gets thrugh his son the scarier the future is for this universe. Ryans up bring determines if this world gets burned down or has a true hero

And all it takes is a single “Homelander is good dad” moment to have Ryan like him again. Lol

"I've had a nightmare, dad burned down everything and kills me."
-Ryan

As much as I hate Homelander, I hope he turns out to be an amazing father. Ryan needs that and maybe, just maybe, Homelander could control himself then.

I was thinkin Ryan could be redeemed but after this episode we're cooked

This gave me gotham vibes. Seeing young Bruce Wayne grow into who he would become. Seeing him throw his first punch, learn how to fight, etc. Bruce had Alfred. Ryan has Superman. Really...broken...Superman.

Alfred: Why do we fall, sir? So we can learn to pick ourselves up.

Homelander: Why do we fall, son? So next time we can fly and take out a Vought airliner full of people who pushed us down and laughed at us.

You know is even worst because Ryan (and honestly everyone who didn´t came for the money) would be pretty anoyed by the whole marketing and movie star bullshit of Vough, so by having Ryan not doing this or that, HL is actually turning him more to his side. Hell, here we even see that Homelander has actually improved his manipulation skills, or maybe he just opened up to actually listen to his son, because he did horribly wrong the time he tried to convince his son that killing Koy by accident was okay, but now the made him enjoy seeing an asswhole creep being slapped. So yeah, this guy desrved it, but, we can only fear how far that can go....

John saying he's been manipulated his whole life as he actively is manipulating Ryan

Well, here’s to hoping there won’t be a homelander mk2, or he’ll need to be dealt with too

The most dangerous human on this planet tries to make up healthy relationship

If you take out the fact that they have super powers and invincible this is a good father son scene. Supporting and trusting each other

This is what leads the media to Homelander using his destructive intelligence manipulation against his own son. Unfortunately, that will play out...if Ryan doesn't get a grip. And I guess in season 5, at the end, Ryan will realize Homelander.

This the only episode Homelander being a good person

I‘m slowly gaslighting myself into thinking this guy is a good dad

It's so weird because in the midst of all the bad lessons that Homelander tries to teach....there's a sliver of good parenting. In this case, it's being able to speak your mind.

Whats the deal with the kid's voice? He's a preteen with a voice of a toddler with some kind of speech impediment.

Im calling it. Either Ryan is going to kill Homelander, or Homelander will kill himself after Ryan dies. Sometimes the way the framing is set up with the 2 of them makes me believe Ryan is going to kill his dad and be a true hero, or Homelander will lose his son and end his miserable life.

In a fucked up way, Homelander is trying to (violently) shield his son from being used as he was. The problem is that Ryan might turn out to be like his dad to impress him

Ryan's fixing to be the next Joffrey 😂

I like how Ryan takes his wallet and car keys like he knows how to drive a car

Imagine if the show ends with Homelander abandoning his world domination plan, going to therapy and spending the rest of his life as a genuinely good dad
It won't happen but it would definitely be a subversion of where we think the story is going

"From now on tell me what you really want?"
"I want to help people like mom wants"
"Okay, think of anything else."

I feel like this Homelander's new mellow attitude with Ryan will last for like an episode. He will soon force him to do more evil things, like killing Butcher, and Ryan will not have it.

He keeps telling Ryan he is proud of him after repeatedly told by his father figures he is a disappointment. The only good thing about Homelander is he really tries to be a good father, he can’t be though.

Why does his voice sound so different here?

A guy with the most Aryan features ever who had a Nazi girlfriend that wanted him to enslave the world saying...
"we're both emancipated from slavery" :D

I just realized super school is a rift on genv

The Boys is a tragic story about a broken man, so sad :(
