There's a new Black Noir... and he talks?! That's something.

The whole scene with Homelander telling the Deep to blow A-Train was great. I love how excited and turned on Ashley was by the possibility of seeing it actually happen. And The Deep's "Sexuality is just a spectrum, right bro?" -- classic.

Lots of great moments here -- Homelander's little chest of keepsakes, including the jar of his gray pubes. Brilliant way to show his demented narcissism.
Sage is shaping up to be a great, complicated character. I wonder how far she'll go with Homelander, and at what point he'll betray her and/or she'll get sick of deferring to his plans and betray him.

I really hope Ambrosius doesn't suffer for The Deep's sins. She's just an innocent octopus who fell in love with the wrong amphibious superhero; we've all been there.

Mod note: One deleted. Apparently homeland actor Erin Moriarty has been the victim of a lot of misogynistic trolling and abuse (ref 1, 2), let's be absolutely sure we aren't perpetuating that here! Thanks.
