GEN V ENDING EXPLAINED! 

Now for Emma to wipe my memory so I can watch the season again. How do you think this will tie into The Boys Season 4?

Emma's powers don't actually require that she eat or purge. That's just a mental barrier that she developed from her mom's abuse. The scene where she shrunk when she was sad just proves that. Her subconscious shrunk her because she felt small after the way Sam belittled her. If she can get over her self image hangups then she'll have full conscience control of her powers.

Homelander calling Marie an animal was in no way a twist 😂. It is completely in line with his supremacist ideals.

I like how Kate was made to be mixed with Professor X’s ability to control people’s minds with Magneto’s ideology of “we’re better than these humans” which makes her extremely dangerous

What if when Emma feels "small" emotionally, she shrinks. Her powers can be controlled emotionally? No need for food abuse

Im not gonna lie, when I saw homelander drop in i felt relief and thought “oh finally he will stop them” then that shit happened 😂 I completely forgot how he is the worst of them all, its been too long without the boys

I literally screamed when Marie blew Cate's arm and then homelander blasted her, that was such an iconic ending

Emma actually would have like empathetic size manipulation. Notice how when she's sad or when she's purging (she hates herself while purging) she gets smaller. When she feeling negatively she gets smaller. When she was eating all that spaghetti to get large, it probably made her feel empowered and good about herself, hence why she got larger. I think her powers are emotional rather than her depending on purging or eating.

When Marie popped Kate’s hand I genuinely screamed

That detail about Andre having his phone and Emma having a smoothie is really interesting.. Like its clearly intentional, I think they're in a safe facility to protect them rather than a prison. Also its likely a device to keep them out of season 4. Even if the room has no access to the internet/outside world, why does he have it on him?

Marie and Butcher in the Boys season 4 gonna be teaming up like Shaq and Kobe

Gotta say I was shocked at the length of the episode but they filled it up with so much good stuff! That Homelander ending was amazing! Cannot wait for The Boys S4! This show as a huge W for Amazon!

Anyone else here after Chance Perdomo's sudden passing? 😥😥 Trying to figure out what they could do with his character with this ending.

I think it's best to say that this is the best comic book adaptation to television we've seen. There's no way the masses view Marvel or DC the same again. The boys and GEN V series are at the forefront after this.

Homelander didn't WANT the flight to crash, he fucked up the save and was panicking until he found a way to spin it then just let them die.

Theory: It's not Vought official who has them, it's Stan Edgar with a rouge team.......i have no solid basis other than vibes.

Also, what a great show. 9/10 - Shetty was fantastic and shouldn't have been killed off.

This is genuinely one of the best episodes of television I’ve ever seen, and I’m SO relieved that Marie, Jordan, and Emma made it out alive 😭 freaking out about what could happen next but at least they’re safe for now 😀

Not smaller by crying, she shrunk by feeling small emotionally. Im sure if someone made her feel larger than life emotionally she could become big. A little pep talk at a crucial time could turn her into a giant i bet

Homelander showing up when and how he did was absolutely perfect for this show. It was the perfect moment to bring him in and rebalance what we had just seen. Can't wait for next season and S4 of the Boys

I like how there are so many "main" charectars in the Boyz now. They obviously have the Boyz, Homelander, Neumann and GenV characters as well now. They have so much to work with

Marie survived Homelanders heat vision because she has physical healing abilities. When she cuts her palms with her knife the wounds in her palm heal naturally. Marie doesn't feel any pain when her blood comes out of her hands/palms.. She is a blood bender. She can control people's blood. She can stop someone's Heart from beating or stop someone's Hearts from pumping blood. I love that scene/part where Marie stopped the Heart of the lady who was trying to Kill Jordan with her lazer eyes. The lady was using her heat vision on Jordan and then Marie destroyed the lady's Heart. That shows how powerful Marie is.. I think Homelander should watch out for Marie.. because Marie has was able to defeat Translucent's son and also destroyed Cates hands. Marie is powerful. Marie is very powerful and Blood benders are very dangerous people. In Avatar ( last Airbender ) the cartoon.. some blood benders were able to defeat Avatar Korra and Avatar Aang. Blood bending is a very serious superpower.

Inside Andres file that says that you can only lift a maximum of 13 tons, so it makes sense that when he uses his abilities to that level he may then creating much larger brain tears. By comparison when he's only lightly using his abilities, those tears may be smaller and not as noticeable.

I can’t believe nobody has gotten Emma’s powers right. She has to FEEL small. She purges because her mom has made her self-conscious about her weight so she feels lesser about herself when she does it. Sam told her she’s not a hero and broke up with her just when she was starting to gain confidence about it. Her size is directly related to how she feels about herself. When she got huge she literally ate like 1 plate of spaghetti - not any crazy amount of food.

Polarity wasn’t apologizing because of the virus in the woods. Andre never found out about that this season (maybe while he was locked up with Marie unconscious at the end). Our crew only found out at Shetty’s house and Andre wasn’t there and no one told him over the phone.

We need like 18 more seasons combined for both The Boys and Gen V. This is some good shit we got going.

What insane finale that was hilarious they called homelander to save them ,and he sides with the supes that wanted to murder them amazing next season of the boy is going to be crazy cant wait to see how they tied all this together.

Butch coming in the end gave me a flashback of him coming back in the boys saying ‘Daddy’s home’

I can’t lie this show was damn near perfect I was hesitant when first heard about it and even the first trailer I wasn’t on board but this show was amazing can’t wait for the boys next season

6:33, It’s a minor detail, but they refer to Andre’s power as “Magnetic Telepathy” when it should be “Magnetic Telekinesis”, likely a simple production error but also a possible display of Vought’s incompetence when handling their supes, 5:06, as they don’t even fully understand their biology with Compound V’s often creating various kinds of unpredictable conditions and other random effects in its subjects.

Golden Boy could have fixed a lot of this in time if he didn't kill himself. Wonder if Cate told him directly to off himself? Just saying it will be a good arc to get Sam to turn on Cate eventually.

The room the 4 protagonists are placed in is called an oubliette. It's a room with no doors or windows and the only way out is through the ceiling. It was designed for people who are thrown down there to be forgotten.

Xavier evil and Magneto good is crazy 😂

I think emmas power is based on emotional pain I think her purging made her remember her mom, which is the emotional connection.

I appreciate that you noticed Andres twitching while speaking to the doctor! Emma is my favorite! Sam was beyond cruel for what he said to her..

Let's goo Theory - Stan Edgar heading a black ops situation and has hidden the 4 somewhere underground and off the books to protect them and use them against Homelander Cate and that boy (Luke's brother) - become part of the 7 Marie - really discovers she can mess people uppppp with her powers and upgrades. Andre - if there's ever a supe cure this guy is gonna take it and trick Cate into taking it and tap out go off grid with her. Thanks for the vid

We know Homelander was raised in a lab, so he probably did not know about The Woods. I think he agreed with Cate and that why he made her the hero of GodU

12:09 Emma realized she can control her powers by her emotions.

Jeff was working for vaught. After he's killed it cuts to the assistant in the meeting room trying to find out why she lost connection to him

Rest easy Andre 🙏

That was insane! Fantastic finale. Gen V really delivered this entire season. No spoilers...But it's funny how quickly you forget what universe you're in. This ain't yo grandma's superhero comic😂.

Anyone else feel like this episode was anticlimactic and short?? It was only 30 something minutes give or take. At least we got to see butcher and a big battle in the boyz so that was lit. Welp time to wait months for the boyz season 4 and probably a year or so for the next Gen V season.

I have watched a few videos on this recap and I am a little surprised that not a single one of the creators that covered this episode mentioned the absolute hypocrisy of Homelander. He is a killer of supes who gets angry if someone hurts his kind of supe. Yes, he wants to kill Starlight, but he never goes all the way because not only she outsmart him at all turns she meets his criteria for the perfect supe. Homelander could give two shits that Marie blew off Cates arm except how dare someone make an white angel imperfect. That ending very much reminded me of the movie Brazil and the kids are actually trapped in Cate/Marie's mind again and are lying in a coma where Butcher will find them. The reason I think this is if you look in the background, Emma is drinking a smoothie, and all I could think is, "Where the hell did she get that?" Which made me consider the possibility she is now comfortable with food and no longer sees it as a crutch IN HER MIND. Which means the room they are in isnt real. This is further shown by Marie noticing there are no doors. Also why would Emma be there at all. Not only did she do NOTHING wrong she was nowhere near the action. However, Marie found friends so her comfort would be in her mind which raises the possibility Cate trapped everyone in Marie's mind.

I love this show so much. I honestly thought it built up from the initial episodes. Usually the pilot or first episode is the best. This show kept getting better for me.

It feels so good seeing Homelander after a while

I think this is still all a part of the Dean's plan to make supers hated by the general public, only to have several of the ones Kate released be contagious. I also think dying was a part of her plan, but that's only because I felt that, last episode, the scene of "One more push" didn't get paid off

Damn you missed the best ‘Greg/Bob’ runner. “Okay, this is Greg”

I watched the wrong reaction video earlier and he was so off.. I was like wait this can’t be the right page lol. You’re always spot on.

The season finale - kind of needed a double episode to explore the Homelander end of it - but it was still epic. Stanley Edgar, I see him playing a role and helping free Marie, Jordan, Emma, Andre. I don't think it would fit the show if Marie could just heal brain damage, and anyway the doctor says it's tears in brain tissue, not blood vessels.

Not gonna lie; I sorta expected them (the gen) to die, but it was far off on my list of possibilities. It wasn’t until they were shown in a room with no doors that this probability was wrong. Personally, I hate how stereotypical Magento Cate became. Getting her arm destroyed was too good for her. I also don’t get how they got Emma; I feel like Sam can still be saved; he just has to remember what Cate did, and how it’s her fault Luke died (her powers must’ve made him unstable enough to commit suicide, since they claim he was never that kind of person to do that).

that ending tho 🔥

Since Shetty suicide in episode 7, I thought it was all a Cate illusion/mental control, like in episode 5/6. The wonky effect from Homelander laser, the twist in his theme, the cut of Marie almost exploting to being kidnapped in a unknown room. Cate saying to Shetty that she believed her before making her confess. The madness of the situation...

Sam radicalization felt rushed. Emma was the first person that he truly liked and he follows Cate, the same person that made his brother forget about him. Makes no sense

So I think that Emma's power has to be triggered by extreme emotions, but I also feel like it might be an xmen type thing where emotional issues trigger powers when untrained. I can see Emma having different control of her abilities as she learns more. She wouldnt change size significantly from standard positive or negative emotions because she's used to those, it seems like extremes but hopefully it's growing pains (but probably not, when it comes to compound V).

I took it more like Emma's power is controlled by her feelings AND food. She shrinks when she throws up, and feels bad about herself because of it. Maybe that's how she first noticed her powers in puberty. The reason she shrinks now is because she has never felt that kind of hurt, she has never before felt for someone like she feels about Sam. It also works with earlier in the season when her mom thinks she isn't her usual size when thet meet, meeting her mom makes her shrink a bit too. But also sad if she can only grow when she eats, is food the only thing ever to bring her happiness?

This video deserves more likes 👍🏽

i did enjoy this.. thanks

The revelation is that Emma's *emotions* are what dictate when she shrinks or grows, NOT her eating habits. Her binging/purging simply create the emotions that lead to her physical changes. It was a powerful revelation, and I'm surprised you would totally miss that.

What I liked was the characters getting micro tears in the brain from using their powers makes sense if they had a regular body without healing power the strength of a power like polarity would eventually be too much for a regular human body.

Man wasn’t homelander killing hella supes like that blind dude or the dude that could read minds

No more puking or eating to change your size Emma! Well done!

It is such bullshit that Marie, Jordan, Andre and Emma got fucked over in the end. That cliffhanger was unbearable.

my theory on Emma's powers is that for her to get small, she has to feel small, and to get big, she has to feel big. It kinda makes sense since her mother has always been so strict about what Emma eats and how much she eats, so that trauma might have made it so that purging makes Emma feel small, and over eating makes her feel big. Another reason as to why I believe this is because when she realizes that she shrunk while she was crying (after Sam said some really hurtful things that would obviously make her feel small), she was surprised, even though she has cried before, hinting that just simply crying or being sad hasn't had this effect on her power before

The entrance of Homelander was.... chilling

Absolute pee funny. Not laughed at a sci fi comedy like this for a while. Cant wait for the next season with more giggles 😂

Stormfront was older than the other supes and she never had any negative effects on her brain for being a supe. Maybe it just runs in Andrew's family or family who had that health issue in their genes even before becoming supes.

Emma's powers are emotion driven ! When she's feeling down, sad, little etc she shrinks but when she's feeling more positive, happy, proud etc she gets big. I'm so excited for her new discovery and can't wait to see it play out on screen.

Are they not in the same place maeve was the global wellness rehabilitation centre?

I believe that Butcher will die at the hand of Homelander but when he kills him he does it up close...like a punch through his stomach or something of the sorts. When its all said and done, Butcher looks at Homelander with a painful expression but starts to grin maniaclly at Homelander. Butcher keeps smiling at him an then he tells him that he better put on the tea kettle, 'cause it looks like he'll catch a "cold". This is where we found out that Butcher had ingested the supes virus before having a battle with Homelander.

When they started introducing the head popper before revealing it was Newman, I was assuming the power had to do with controlling liquid, not specifically blood, but the power allows the control of the blood aa well. Mostly because of how it pops, kind of like how your bloods suppose to boil inspect and your head probably pop, it didn't look like and explosion from the inside. Anyway, even if Homelander is somehow tougher than any other supe like not only is his skin super tough and impenetrable that if you try to pop his head, you can't because his skin is much tougher, and even if you can shrink and phase through his skin, and take a tiny scalpel you can't make a cut to any part of his internal organs, or blood vessels or muscles, therefore not being able to pop him internally either, I still think controlling the blood can kill him. I mean he has erection and all so he has blood, it works in his system, even if they can't really do damage, they can restrict the flow of blood to his brain and drain all the blood from his brain by redirecting it to the other parts of his body, or just give him a heart attack. I think the problem isn't so much if the power is powerful enough to take him down, but the circumstance allows them enough time to do that before homeland gets them. For one, you can see that controlling the blood flow internally like that takes concentration, and skill. because when Marie tried to stop cate, she either panic or because cate's hand was so close, she was desperate, so she popped her entire forearm, I doubt she wanted it that way, but slowing her down with more precise control is too slow in that situation and he just had to stop her at that moment and her focus was on that hand not touching Jordan. So if they were faced with homeland, I'm sure either one is powerful enough, but if homelander sees them first, they'd probably be dead first if he already knew what they can do. And even if they see each other coming, technically the girl would be able to take him down first but then he has those laser from his eyes. Even though we just saw in the episode that Marie can somehow survive the blast, probably the way stormfront did. Im assuming there are different levels of power to those laser eyes, because Ryan managed to cut storm front in one pass, so I guess if he wanted to homeland could still kill Marie or Victoria with zap. Also as far as the virus go, and how its going to be THE weapon against supers whether by newman or the boys, i have a feeling this is where and mari e and newmans skill are going to be invaluable. Not only are they able to just control the blood, considering shes able to sense the compound v in the blood, im guessing with enough concentration and practice she might even be able to detect these viruses and cleanse supes infected by it and this saving them. Besides if shes able to pop someones head like newman do, she might also be anle to extract blood wothout first making a cut or from an existing open wound. I think with enough control shes able to use the blood to puncture through the skin to extract it without creating a large hole either. If shes able to do that she could mix those blood with some of the virus or even just other stuff and put it back into the body with that contaminated blood, or even just put someone elses contaminated bood in by making that few droplet into those daggers stab into the the tatget, it could even be smaller and not something. Theres so much potential to that power.

THIS WAS INSANEEEEEEEEEE

I wonder if Marie and the gang will appear in The Boys season 4? Also, with all that blood after the sups in The Woods got out, if any of them were infected that infection is gonna spread. When Jordan was about to get offed by one of them and Marie took them out...he was awfully close. Then again...they aren't showing any symptoms in the hospital, so maybe they are ok.

Homelander probably knew about the woods or got the know about it. When he realized what Kate was doing and when he saw a chance he did side with her or better allowed her to live and follow him

The interpretation I had on Emma being small is that her powers are based on how she “feels”. She shrugs off most criticisms and judgment from others by projecting a stronger “i dont even care” attitude at times but after Sam destroyed her she truly FELT small in that moment and it triggered her powers. I think Emma will end up developing a different method for activating her powers that’s gonna have to do with her feelings of self worth. It would be a good redemption for her to learn she doesn’t have to binge/purge to transform and will be able to control her powers at will instead.

I think that the homelander trial will end with him saying "How can I even be convicted. What can you even do to stop me? Kryptonite? You are powerless without me."

The writing across this series really felt all over the place, particularly in the final episode. Too often characters seemed to take actions for the sake of the plot that did not gel with their character.

I have been waiting for your video as I have been screaming at tv since the ending of gen v.

Man the way these shows play off the comics is amazing. I read the comics first and I like them more but the shows are amazing and just as good.

Damn, didn't know that was the finale. can't wait for the next one!

I love Gen V but I just wish the Godolkin or w.e the University is called was set up better. For the Crimefighting school, there should have been mini schools within it for like Support, Healing, etc. Emma's powers (which I LOVE), would be best used for support/espionage missions like how she found Golden Boy's brother. THAT is a better use of her talents than going the social media route. Jordan is the same way; he could be used for espionage missions. Marie's powers are more versatile because she can easily be spread around for different things depending on what she has to do. Her powers are DANGEROUS and I'm pretty sure THAT'S why Homelander is intrigued by her.

So Emma’s powers are triggered by her feel “small” or low, but how come she didn’t shrink when everyone found out about her purging and bullied her? Was it because when Sam said those things it hurt worse and she was heartbroken?

I love how they paced the evolution of Marie's powers. It's like you get to also see Victoria Neuman's past development, which culminated into 💥popping heads💥 From amateur to PRO💯

I'm a creative writer. I'm working on a character with a School Of Magic called Organikinesis. Marie or whatever her name is is just like my character with the blood manipulation. I knew it was a cool idea! Neat just to see a triple A production using the same ideas as me.

This is a prime example of how live action actually outdoes its source print material, something Marvel studios should take notes from...

Loved Marie's discovery of new abilities ❤

Just here to say i DID notice the Wilhelm scream and got even more excited this time around lmaooo

I love the Boys but slept on Gen V until recently. I had no idea I'd like this as much as I do! It's flipping awesome! Can't wait for season 2!

I believe Ashley is the one keeping all of them in that white room. She is protecting them from Homelander. Homelander would never keep all of them in one room with special treatments. Homelander won't allow them to stay together. He knows they're powerful together as a team. Homelander would have separated them if he knew about it. So if they are all together in that room then i guess Ashley is keeping them there to protect them from Homelander

What a great season finale,i never thought that gen v would be so greatly integrated with the boys universe in first season itself.l

The head popper can use Marie to infect other sups, just using infected blood from the virus, and Homeland can use Kate to make the jury vote not guilty. Now I see starlight and kico or whatever her name is helping homelander because the virus can also kill them.

12:04 Oh look, Emma is wearing the Infinity Stones as a necklace :)

Marke surviving a laser blast from homelander is definitely a feat! That durability is strong!

I think Jeff might be tek knights sidekick mainly cus tek knight was a iron man parody in the comics

I wasn't expecting homelander to be thrilled about what Marie trying to stop genocide 😂😂😂

also.. if it wasn’t for you I wouldn’t know about The Boys or Gen V!! Keep it up.

Crazy Theory… But we actually seen the one thing that can for sure take out Homelander, it’s the virus just imagine a scene where homelander is about to go ona rampage and suddenly he gets sick for the first time that would be crazy, this is definitely not the last time we’ll hear or see bout the virus, If butcher gets his hands on it, it’s game over

Spoilers alert if you didn't know: I'm glad they're still alive. I saw another video where Homelander shot his heat vision at Marie, and I was like "WHAT?!" Since she and the other students are like THE heroes everyone needs.

when Homelander arrive i already knew Cate gonna win didnt expect that quick laser beam tho lmfao

Crazy theory what if the "thing Shetty was doing to Sam and Luke" is that they not only make them stronger but accidentally also transfers part of each other to each other so thats why Luke keep seeing a vision of Sam and the Woods, and why Sam can see Luke as "a figment of imagination". Its like they are psychically linked 😅

Damn! This reminds me of Game of Thrones episode 1 all over again. What a twist!! Love where they are going with this. Such a great opener to The Boys.
