The Boys season 3 episode 4: Homelander star says he's parodying ... (Tom's Guide)

The Boys lead Antony Starr talks about one of Homelander's influences, former U.S. President Donald J. Trump.

It's to be seen, though, if all of The Boys' audience finds this amusing or not. On the other hand, I think it’s tragic that there’s so much material available at the moment to satirize. The Boys is no stranger to political reference or parody, and The Boys season 3 episode 4 just made it all a bit more literal, as a few of Homelander's latest lines sounded especially familiar. And Starr's words ring true after a moment in The Seven's board room at Vought Tower from The Boys' latest episode. But before you go further, take this spoiler warning for The Boys season 3 episode 4. Tom’s Guide attended a press roundtable promoting The Boys season 3 where Starr was asked about how his character is parodying the far right.

The Boys Season 3 Episode 4 Release Time Delay Explained ... (Screen Rant)

The Boys season 3, episode 4's release has been delayed on Prime Video for some users. Here's what's going on and where it's available to watch.

As it stands, Fire TV Stick is the only verified way of watching The Boys season 3, episode 4 online until Prime Video's technical difficulties are resolved. Amazon's official social media channels have responded to various tweets on the matter of The Boys season 3, episode 4 delay. However, another response to a question on episode 4 dropping stated that announcements "haven't been made." The Boys season 3 released on Prime Video on June 3, 2022, with three episodes dropping at once to pick up the story of Billy Butcher (Karl Urban), Homelander (Antony Starr), and co. The issue doesn't appear to have affected everyone, but a lot of subscribers have reported problems with the episode not releasing in various territories, including the United States, Canada, and United Kingdom (which Screen Rant can verify at the time of writing).

The Boys Recap: Bad Product (Vulture)

The Seven mutiny is over before it even began. A recap of 'Glorious Five Year Plan,' episode 4 of the third season of 'The Boys' on Amazon Prime Video.

Not a great deal for Neuman, I have to say, but I suppose the threat of Homelander lasering her and her whole family was a significant factor. The idea of Homelander as the head of Vought is intriguing to me; the more power he has, the more he has to lose, which should make his fall all the more delicious. (It’s still not the most memorable use of a dildo in the episode.) What unites this story and the other main story of the episode is the shared focus on team dynamics. I call the reveal a bombshell because it is shocking — this season has slowly set Alex up as a potential love interest, even in this episode, but his life (and story arc) got cut short. Hopefully giving Hughie (and maybe others?) V24 will be the shot in the arm (pun intended) these stories need in the second half of the season. So much is happening, but there’s little time to dwell on the emotional significance of these revelations. But it is even more distressing to the group that the typically by-the-books Hughie took the temp V, too — it comes out when he nakedly teleports a few yards forward, punching a hole through a man’s torso. All of these stories come together nicely at the climax, when the Boys break into the lab and security inevitably arrives for a big shootout. It’s a handy bit of strategic sentimentality on Butcher’s part, but there’s a deeper implication: Butcher plays the hard-ass authoritarian role when shit needs to get done, while Mother’s Milk is the real glue, a moral compass who can hold the group together like he did with his platoon. It’s only minutes later that Nina has leveraged her Kremlin connections to find the lab they’re looking for, and all of a sudden the elusive Soldier Boy–killing weapon seems shockingly attainable. After a few installments gradually reuniting the Boys and developing their goals, both individually and as a group, “Glorious Five Year Plans” gives us our first real Boys mission of the season.

The Boys Season 3 Episode 4 Review (Game Rant)

Season 3, Episode 4 of The Boys continues to offer up some truly impressive and outrageous scenes while adding to the tension of future events.

Of course, the show does once again offer a glimmer of hope for those that are thinking there might be a way to really take Homelander down. The series continues doing an outstanding job making it seem as if he's naive in specific ways, only to eventually divulge that he's one step ahead of everyone else. The fact that Edgar is devoting the resources of Vought to trying to knock the superhero down a peg seems like it could be a step in the right direction. In some regards, it appears that things are actually unfolding in a way that could end Homelander's reign of terror. Meanwhile, Hughie is trying to find a way to no longer work for Victoria Neuman after discovering that she has superpowers and has killed an awful lot of people. That's really not much of a spoiler as it's something that tends to happen a couple of times in every episode.

The Boys season 3, episode 4 review: "Lands the punch" (GamesRadar+)

Just how far would you be willing to go to stop a maniacal Supe like Homelander?

Whether there will be time remains to be seen – there’s no knowing where this mission’s going now that a certain someone’s on the scene. The Boys season 3 is airing weekly on Prime Video – check out our guide to the release schedule here to make sure you don’t miss a moment. The writers also struggle with how to balance the show’s plethora of characters. It’s Anthony Starr’s performance as the unhinged hero that leaves me at a crossroads: I want Butcher to succeed, yet it’s hard to imagine this show without Homelander’s omniscient threat lingering over them. 'Glorious Five Year Plan' tracks Billy Butcher’s (Karl Urban) team as they travel to Russian to find a mysterious weapon that could take down the maniacal leader of the Seven. Even he can’t stop Butcher from falling further wayward due to Temp V, the effects of which are more than just some green vomit.

The Boys Season 3, Episode 4 Review - "Glorious Five Year Plan ... (IGN)

The latest episode of The Boys holds nothing back as hamsters, limited edition dildoes, and strongman punches ensure there's no shortage of violence.

Hughie for Starlight, Starlight for Hughie, Butcher for Ryan, Frenchie for Kimiko, Homelander for himself, The Deep (Chace Crawford) for his spot in The Seven, A-Train (Jessie T. Usher) for his late-stage activism — Kripke's packing the powder keg even tighter, which is already bursting at the bolts. Edgar is still the colder son-of-a-gun in the room for all of Homelander's physical threats and American nightmarishness. Both The Seven and The Boys are in shambles under Homelander and Butcher. "Glorious Five Year Plan" ruptures relationships between Butcher's roster that M.M. warns may be irreparable, while Starlight and Queen Maeve (Dominique McElligott) gear up for a mutiny with the aid of Butcher's secret weapon (yet to be obtained). Characters endure soul-crushing tortures, have their failures rubbed in their faces, are picked back upright, then shoved right back to the ground — and yet The Boys isn't about hopelessness. Between The Boys opening Season 3 with Termite graphically exploding through his lover's penis, the impending "Herogasm" in Episode 6, and the death by dildoes in "Glorious Five Year Plan," showrunner Eric Kripke's putting the "O" in "superhero" these days. The difference here, and what The Boys is doing better by the episode, is that it emphasizes the consequences of violent attacks and the emotional responses to the corpses that pile sky high. The Boys asserts itself as far more than a display of barbaric acts of random violence carried out by the world's most sadistic anti-heroes, which adds an element of engagement to Season 3 that wasn't as prominent thus far.

'The Boys': It All Goes Wrong for Stan Edgar in 'Glorious Five-Year ... (TV Insider)

[WARNING: The following contains MAJOR spoilers for The Boys Season 3 Episode 4, “Glorious Five-Year Plan.”] You know what they say about the best-laid ...

Starlight ( Erin Moriarity), Maeve ( Dominique McElligott) and Alex (Miles Gaston Villanueva) make plans to assemble a team to fight against Homelander when the time comes, and Alex recruits A-Train after his frustrating meeting with the mad supe. That’s easy enough for Kimiko to do; when she winds up at the gangster’s mansion in a room with him and a host of barely-clothed women, she uses the guy’s closet of The Seven-themed vibrators — hey, it’s The Boys! — to kill him and the rest of his goons. As they speed from the scene, Kimiko lies dying in the back of the team’s van, and MM has some harsh words for Butcher about how he’s run the team. Thanks to a gerbil named Jamie, they wind up pinned down, and Butcher has to use his temporary supe powers to save the team. Plus, Butcher (Karl Urban), Hughie ( Jack Quaid) and the rest of the gang make an ill-advised deal with Little Nina (Katia Winter). Kendall Jenner’s infamous Pepsi ad gets a Vought remake. In the fourth episode of The Boys’ third season, a betrayal befalls Stan Edgar ( Giancarlo Esposito) — and just like that, the only person who could keep Homelander ( Antony Starr) under control is gone.

'The Boys' Recap: Season 3, Episode 4 “Glorious Five Year Plan” (Nerds and Beyond)

Following a killer three-episode premiere that audiences won't soon forget, The Boys is back again this week with "Glorious Five Year Plan.

She tells him that she realized that she’s been the one protecting him all of these years, not the other way around, and now she needs to look out for her daughter. Hughie walks in on him while he’s doing it and tells him that he wants to try it, too, but Butcher won’t let him. He tells her that if she steps out of line again, Hughie is next. She pays a visit to Alex next and tells him that they may have found a way to take down Homelander, and he assures her that he’ll be on their side when the time comes. Meanwhile, Hughie is caught in a daze, admiring the way his arm glows from the V-24. He points out that there’s nobody left to cover for Homelander at Vought now, and he’s not worthy of his respect. As the others go to leave, A-Train and The Deep argue in the hallway and are stuck at a stalemate because they both have incriminating evidence on one another. She holds her daughter close as she wails in pain after injecting her with the drug. Ashley cuts in to inform Homelander that Victoria Neuman is holding a press conference about him. She gets back up once her body rejects the bullet and is on the verge of retaliating. Annie shows Hughie the #Homelight footage from American Hero. He’s not happy about it, but it’s what has to happen if he wants her to stay with The Seven so they can carry out their plan to take down Homelander once and for all. She proceeds to use the rest of the man’s dildo collection to take out his guards.
