The Boys Finale Blood and Bone Synopsis
Head Writer and Developed by - Eric Kripke
Based on the comic series from Garth Ennis and Darick Robertson
Executive Producers Seth Rogen and Evan Goldberg.
Episode written by: Judalina Neira & David Reed
Episode directed by: Phil Sgriccia
Synopsis: After an emotional farewell to their fallen comrade Frenchie, The Boys need to press their attack on Homelander. Butcher uses Sister Sage to anger Kimiko to see if she can trigger her new power. The pressure works and Kimiko’s explosive power removes Sage’s abilities turning her into an average, stupid human...just like the Boys.
Meanwhile at The Oval Office Homelander prepares to address the nation to proclaim himself the new god on Easter Sunday. With the countdown set, The Boys use their previous experience to infiltrate the White House. But Oh Father has planned for this eventuality and installed a Kill Box on their route through Kennedy’s smelly sex tunnels.
What he didn’t count on was new President Ashley Barrett having a change of heart. She, with encouragement from Back-Ashley, finds her inner strength and frees The Boys, sending them on their path to take out Homelander before making a run for it. On their route they encounter The Deep. Dejected after Homelander’s latest rejection he blames Annie for everything. She has a knockdown drag out fight with him and sends him flying into the ocean where the sea life gets their revenge, tearing The Deep apart.
While MM and Hughie kill a gagged Oh Father, Billy Butcher and Kimiko take the fight to Homelander. With the help of Ryan, Billy restrains him while Kimiko, with a little help from Frenchie, unleashes her powers removing all abilities from all three of them.
Realising he has no real power, the pathetic, weak, sniveling loser Homelander begs for his life on camera in front of the American people. But Billy’s crowbar unhinges his skull, putting an end to his tyranny once and for all.
Subsequently, President Ashley is unanimously impeached and removed from office and Stan Edgar once again becomes Vought's interim CEO just as he promised MM he would. When Ryan rejects Billy Butcher’s idea of a happy family and his dog Terror dies, Butcher goes back to his original plan and heads to Vought Tower to release the virus. Hughie follows him and, realising there is no way to stop Billy, he pulls the trigger and kills him.
With their plan complete The Boys disband, M.M. renews his marriage vows and takes in Ryan; Kimiko goes to France; and Hughie and Annie prepare to become parents to a baby girl who they name Robin. Hughie smiles as Annie flies off to continue using her powers to be the hero the world needs.
