Butcher didn’t get the chance to talk to Becca because Homelander (Antony Starr) presumably flew him away. Butcher then goes to a restaurant and notes down everything he could remember. He is still unable to realize that Becca has cheated on him and he is driven to search for her. Butcher is surprised to see himself on a news broadcast labeled as a suspect in the murder of Vought International’s Madelyn Stillwell (Elisabeth Shue).
Meanwhile, Homelander is disappointed at his son, Ryan (Cameron Cravetti), as he can’t help Homelander with any of it. On the other hand, there is Starlight (Erin Moriarty) struggling with her internal battles, who can’t be herself because of being raised as a superhero member of The Seven.
Later, Starlight joins Queen Maeve (Dominique McElligott) and a new member of the Seven, Stormfront (Aya Cash). Right after this collaboration, Queen Maeve leaves due to a family emergency.
