The very first episode of the sophomore outing features a cameo from Starlight, who is seeking Marie’s help to learn more about Vought’s Project Odessa. There are also various mentions of Homelander throughout the season, revealing more about his plans to take control of the United States and beyond. Now, a third bombshell from The Boys has entered the villa, and they’re not wasting any time setting up the future of the franchise.
Marie Moreau Meets the Former Head of Vought in Gen V Season 2
After getting out of Elmira and returning to school, Marie and her friends can’t help themselves. Rather than accepting their fate and allowing the new dean, Cipher, to take them under his wing, they start plotting to bring him down, which ultimately sends them right back to Elmira. However, this time around, things are different, as Marie’s sister, Annabeth, is there, being used as a pawn in Cipher’s game. Sam Riordan shows up to bust everyone out, and the crew takes a stolen van to a nearby library to regroup and decompress after a wild night. Not long after they arrive, though, Cipher’s enforcer, Vikor, arrives and starts making trouble.
The situation looks dire for the good guys until a familiar face, Zoe Neuman, appears and uses her powers to rip Vikor’s face in half. She’s there with Stan Edgar, her grandfather and the former CEO of Vought. Edgar doesn’t beat around the bush, telling Marie that he wants to recruit her to his side because it’s his best chance at regaining power. Not seeing another way out, Marie and her friends go with him and exchange information once they get to his compound. Everything that Edgar says makes it clear that he’s not sitting the fight against Homelander out. In fact, he might be in a better position than The Boys to take out the leader of The Seven.
