How season 2 of Gen V solves a major problem of the first season intrigue

This article contains spoilers For season 4 of “The Boys” and “Gen V”, episode 2, “Justice Never Forgets”.
“Gen V” is just as fun and twisted as “The Boys”, but there is a key difference: while the boys’ struggle against the resident of Donald Trump Analogous Homelander (Antony Starr) is both topical and necessary to prevent the quips from raising hell on humanity, Godolkin University should be Nigh-Obsolete.
It’s a daring statement, but listen to me. While “Gen V” continues to show us, the whole “injecting adolescents with the compound V and creating an entire education system for the tiny percentage which develops semi-used powers” Modus Operandi is expensive and bulky. It is more likely to provoke countless deaths and send young quips to the adult rehabilitation center Elmira in asylum style via the Red River Institute than to produce superpowering influencers and crime fighters. It is a major hassle because commercial models go – especially since Vought has a much higher option on the table.
V24 is a compound V variety which grants temporary superpowers and can be given to supposed adults. It has its problems, as a price of $ 2 million in the dose and a tendency to make the user crazy and / or dead in the long term, but go: Vought has already dealt with problems of control and profitability with many of its existing quips, only constantly and throughout their lives. Since “The Boys” introduced V24 and Stan Edgar (Giancarlo Esposito) clearly indicated that he was trying to replace Supe by V24 users in the five years, I had trouble understanding why Vought still chose to continue to train more than she has fully intended to replace soon. Fortunately, “justice never forgets” fixes this intrigue hole and reminds me that God U always has his uses.
The ability of young quilts to rise could be sufficient for God to cover you
As the episode reveals, the young quips can “go up level” in power, sometimes in a surprising way. This alone is more than a sufficient motivation for Vought to be able to keep tabs extremely careful about them with a narrowly controlled school supe system – after all, it would be bad for business if, say, a breathtaking teenager unattended suddenly manifesting the ability to create black holes in his hands and feet.
To ensure that the message appears, “Justice Never Forgets” explains the concept twice. First of all, Cate (Maddie Phillips) recovers from the hospital after Marie (Jaz Sinclair) and others attacked her during the first of season 2 (“New Year, New U”). It is instinctively unleashed with two staff members, showing the brand new power to take control of people’s bodies and manipulate them as puppets – a considerable change compared to its usual reading power and control people with touched and verbal orders. It is not the only time “Gen V” suggested that Cate had unexploited potential, but he East The first time, it demonstrates a whole new aspect of its powers.
Later, Dean Cipher (Hamish Linklater) offers more exhibition on the subject, while he tries to forcefully trigger the development of power in some students with his “seminar”-that is to say that Vikor (Tait Fletcher) beat everyone in the hope that someone gets up during the test. Students learning to better use their powers are not a new concept for “Gen V”, and people like Marie and Emma (Lizze Broadway) have demonstrated more control over their powers as the series has progressed. However, the brand new Cate puppet tip is a strong involvement that powers can suddenly manifest itself in a dramatically different way from that usually, which could well be what Cipher is afterwards.
The Homelander Revolution launched a key in the V24 plans of Vought
In addition to the involvement of the episode according to which Vought needed to observe the development of the power of the pupils of the god u more closely than we knew, there is another probable reason for the continuous existence of the school: Homelander takes over. The brutal end of season 4 of “The Boys” left the chief of the seven as a de facto chief of Vought and the country, and the tensions between Supes and ordinary people are at a record level.
Also strong, Homelander wants adorable and united suddens to make his auctions. While he himself grew up as a prisoner in a secret laboratory and has shown quite little interest in God U, apart from a rapid cameo of the final of season 1 of season 1, he should be much more disturbed than he already does to remove the plug from the main screening formation of the country. So, instead of the imprisoned Stan Edgar V24 plans, we get what we see in season 2 of “Gen V”: not only God has more resources than ever, but he is now endowed with sudms that openly form students as soldiers for the cause of Homelander.
It is a dramatic turn of events which is also a logical monitoring of season 4 of “The Boys”. Combined with the evolution of power reveals “Justice Never Forgets”, this also makes a nice hermetic explanation for which God U probably does not go anytime … that is to say unless Billy Butcher (Karl Urban) has a chance to open this box of supe virus.
