We are going to make them pay.
If we take this and transition really quickly to the boys, because I think what's interesting is like,
The Boys and Daredevil are almost litigating the same thing.
They're both trying to be shows that are showing us what it means to be alive in this time.
And I actually thought this episode of The Boys...
even if I didn't like all of it, the conversation that he had, that Homelander has with the older gentleman, where he's just like, this happens to all of us.
You want to be God.
You're getting to a point in your life where you're aging and you don't want to be put out to pasture.
You want to think of yourself as the God.
You want to...
You want immortality.
You can't let go.
And to me, it mirrors Daredevil in the same way where like Matt's looking at Fisk and being like, to save New York, this place that we both supposedly love, we need to let go.
Like a lot of what we keep talking about in politics and younger generation is like, what does it mean for like the baby boomer generation to,
To be like, we've had enough, enough wealth, enough power.
We need to pass it on.
And I was just like, it's funny seeing both of these shows that have aging actors, aging showrunners, aging superheroes litigating what does it mean to really save New York, the world, and just like ourselves, America.
Was that supposed to be like white supremacy coded where I took that as, you could take it two ways.
Sister Sage had a blind spot because she could not calculate that Soulja Boy's love for Stormfront.
She wasn't calculating that in her decision.
