The Boys Season 4 Episode 7 Recap & Episode 8 Release Date on Prime
The Boys season 4 just aired episode 7 titled The Insider, and since the rest of the episodes are released every Thursday, fans can expect episode 8 titled Assassination Run on July 18.
Here are the main storylines to keep in mind for the eighth (final) episode of season 4: Ryan is having trouble with whether he truly wants to follow his father, Homelander's footsteps or listen to what his mother always told him about choosing to do the right thing.
Homelander figures out the truth: the former VNN news anchor they killed was NOT the mole in The Seven. He fires Sister Sage for supposedly 'failing' to find the mole who leaked their footage. Where does that leave The Seven?
Once he figured out how Butcher and the Boys infiltrated the party without being detected, he murders Webweaver without so much as a blink of an eye.
The "real game" of The Boys season 4 happens to be the showdown between Starlight and Butcher against The Deep and Black Noir. Homelander sent them to give them a piece of their mind.
The feud between Starlight and The Deep goes way back in season 1 and fans could do nothing but cheer for finally getting her revenge against everything he did to her that led up to season 4's outcome.
On the other hand, Frenchie and Kimiko failed to keep an eye on Dr. Sameer, who was supposedly creating an Anti-Supe virus that could eliminate Homelander. He escaped while "testing" the virus on Kimiko's leg.
Thankfully, Frenchie sawed it off before it could kill her, leaving Kimiko growing a baby leg on the sideline. While Dr. Sameer escaped, the virus that infected Kimiko's severed leg fell right into their hands.
The episode ends with Ryan deciding to renounce whatever Homelander had been trying to manipulate him into thinking how a Supe should act. Instead, Ryan follows what his mother and Butcher always told him.
Butcher's out of commission, however, after suffering still from hallucinating Joe Kessler from the CIA.
Meanwhile, as much as fans hope to celebrate, Hughie is in trouble and the Boys have no idea that the Starlight he came home with was a fake.
It's the shapeshifting skin-shedding Supe, leaving Annie locked up somewhere with no one, not even her malfunctioning powers, there to save her.
What's to become of the Boys in episode 8? We'll have to find out once the finale airs on Prime next week.
