IDK what the end was all about. Maybe Butcher was lied to ? Maybe wifey was having an affair, and got knocked up because even Homelander was told he couldn't have kids, so he assumed it was ' safe ' to bang around and told her he was sterile, and then he wasn't... No way she could claim it was Butcher's if it was a Super.

Yes, there is a 2nd season.

Dunno... Butcher told Randy Quaid's nephew that she was raped and then he saw a video of her sitting on the same park bench they were sitting on for three straight hours before walking off camera and never being seen again.

But then later in the show there's a flashback where he's watching her go into an office with Homelander for three hours and coming out looking rather disheveled, but not with an expression that would suggest she had been raped.


And up until the events of the show which had only taken place over maybe a couple of weeks, nobody knew that the Sups were created by the Compound V either, so had she just gone back with him and pretended it was his kid, he would never have become the Butcher we see in the show and probably would have been oblivious to it... at least until that secret came out by some other means which is pretty likely since that politician was trying to blackmail Adventures in Babysitting with the dirt he had about Compound V.

There's no way of knowing if that guy knew they were created by the stuff, but he probably at least knew that the Sups were juicing on the stuff.



The more I think about it, the more I start to wonder if there isn't somebody who manipulated her into going into hiding. I mean, it seems like she really loved Butcher, and it seems pretty silly that a single moment of weakness would make her fall out of love with him. Homelander was like a freebie. Most couples I know these days have a list of 5 or so celebrities that they (jokingly) say each other wouldn't get in trouble with each other for if they did it.

I think they scared the hell out of her. Let her know that Homelander might kill her for hiding the child from him, or possibly that he was completely deranged (which she probably had no clue at the time) and that if he found out the kid was his that he would kill Butcher and get him out of the picture.

And if this is the case I think whoever is pulling those strings on her had plans for the baby and won't be too happy that Homelander figured it all out.

Do Right, Be Right. :)

I don’t know about that freebie stuff. It’s easy to joke about it when there’s virtually no chance of it happening, like if Jessica Alba knocked on my front door… But then I’m reminded of Inara and how she cried her brains out after seeing that Mal had been with Nandie.

People tell themselves lies all the time and put up a good front, but when reality slaps them upside the face…

As for Butchers wife, who is to say that it was a single moment of weakness? She and Homelander might have been carrying on for a while, until she realized she was pregnant. She probably could tell very early on that it wasn’t Butchers. Probably because of how fast the pregnancy moves along. It’s one thing to keep a secret like that, cheating on your spouse. But when you have another’s love child in you, that tends to complicate things a bit.

Or maybe she was just part of some gigantic mind trick, putting on a show with the whole park bench business. Maybe she was being manipulated or participant in some grander scheme?

I will accept that I'm just an old prude at this point..but I had been looking forward to the series based on the previews...solid cast of well-paid actors/actresses and Amazon's money behind it.

I bailed on the first episode when they entered the nightclub and some antman guy did a flying leap into...I had reluctantly stuck around that long, thinking it might get better after his girlfriend gets vaped into blood on the street curb, and aqua boy is standing there cranking up his candy cane in anticipation of some conference room roundtable work with AC/DC girl..and by the way..what's with the crappy homemade costumes?!

anyway.. I'm an old guitar slinger who enjoyed many bar nights, finally settled down and made 4 kids of my own...so likely not the prude you may think, but this stuff is just trashy, porn for nerds that never mentally made it past age 13...what is amazing is that there are a number of actors in there that have made the big screen..they are choosing to do this.. I'm sure the money is good, but they could and can get better grade of work...co-workers tell me it didn't get any better, in fact, got worse ..and that's as much as we can discuss in the workplace about it given the very strict HR rules of corporate america today and just plain decency...I've warned friends and family NOT to watch this stupid, cheap and blatant porn series..and it's dang close to making me pull the Prime app from my stream.



Here here. I had the same reaction. "Creatives" sat around a room wondering what hadn't been done yet with the comic/super hero genre and figured they could squeeze some money out of going sleazy. This was so forced it was embarrassing.
