Episode 6 ofThe BoysSeason 4 has caused fans to question where exactly this season has been heading, given that there are just two episodes left, and there has been no meaningful progress in the plot of the show.

Valorie Curry, one of the newest editions to the show, essaying the role of Firecracker, opened up about one particular scene that she shared with Homelander towards the end of the episode, one that was completely in line with the tone of the episode, but added to what the fans have been complaining about this season.

Valorie Curry believes Firecracker has an ‘uncanny ability’

Valorie Curry, known for her portrayal of Kara in the video gameDetroit: Become Human, revealed toVarietythe mindset that Antony Star and she went into their scene together with. She revealed:

I love how that scene played so much, because we both came to it with this utter vulnerability and full of sincerity — which just makes it so much fucking weirder. But with Firecracker, despite her just insanity and the things that she spews, she has this uncanny ability to know what people need, whether it’s in a crowd or it’s one on one.

And even Homelander, she can see the human inside that shell, and she can see what that human needs, even if it looks like a bizarre fetish on the outside. And she’s willing to give him that also, because she’s not afraid of him — she should be. But she truly believes her vision of who he is, so she feels like she has no reason to be afraid of him, and makes herself so vulnerable to his vulnerability. It’s so intimate.

Firecracker, despite being the conspiracy theorist who seems just a little unhinged, seems to have a deep understanding of the very human needs of Homelander, and even those who do not have superpowers. However, we know that she understands that some of what she is doing is questionable, as she admits to Sage she does it in the name of giving people ‘purpose’.

This essentially means that the most powerful character in The Boys universe is not in the hands of a very manipulative individual, who might actually be loyal to Homelander but could also see Vought and Homelander as a means to an end.

Eric Kripke believes that Homelander’s reaction to the milk was ‘beautiful’

Speaking with Variety, Eric Kripke talked about how the scene between Firecracker and Homelander was something that both stars involved were happy to work with, given that Sage and Forecracker were competing for Homelander’s attention, which made for a great narrative beat in the story.

WhileAntony Starr‘s Homelander was challenged and stimulated intellectually by Sister Sage, Firecracker has decided to take to his emotional needs, which Homelander has many.Eric Kripkesaid:

That scene, first of all, getting the milk squirted into his face, and Ant’s shock and total delight is such a beautiful moment. But any other sane show would cut away at that point. And by the way, not that sane — but that’s when you cut away, you know what’s gonna happen.

Firecracker seems completely loyal to Homelander, but she has admitted to Sister Sage in the past that she is in the business of giving people purpose. This could hint at a more manipulative Firecracker, who could have Homelander eating out of the palm of her hand, which could make the character more volatile, setting him on a collision course with Billy Butcher, who has had some emotional traumas of his own this season.
