Most action packed episode in the season, I am really surprised they managed to out do last week's heist style episode. Every turn and twist has you trembling and worrying for your favorite character's and their next moves, the fact that Homelander has gone full StormFront's Muppet mode doesn't help either. But I do have to say that some of the aspects of the story could've been better handled, like Lamp Lighter Offing himself was such an expected turn. But turning Dr.Vougelbaum was such a brilliant move on the part of the writers, it let's you buy into the fact the boys actually stand a chance against the supes. Even if it is for a few seconds and deep down you know it ain't gonna go down just yet, it gets you pumped. Hughie stepping up to save Annie, while it may have messed with their plans it showed that he is still a useful character, I feel like he had been sidelined for most of the season so that was definitely refreshing.
Only complaint I had with this episode is that I wish we gotta better look at Billy's past, could've easily added more character development. But the teases regarding his younger brother Lenny makes me believe there something more to his story than what is being told. Just can't wait next week's episode to drop, don't mind the weekly schedule but they should've dropped both episode 7 and 8 together for a 2 hr long cinematic experience.
