Warning: This article contains spoilers from Gen V episode 4. Read at your own risk!
This week we found out more about the mysteries of God U and more about Sam (Asa Germann). Including how more and more people know, and how at the end of the episode there was a time jump. What are your thoughts and what is to come?
Amy – I’m really starting to think that any upper-level supe knows most of Vought dark shady secrets that now include God U. I am just very curious about the time jump because we saw no supes in the area of the backyard fight, so unless the scientist is also a supe, wouldn’t put it pass that though, I am very curious. Can’t wait for next week’s episode.
Brina – I am beyond curious on what is coming next week. I saw the time jump and it shocked me. I feel like Voight and/or God U has more power over it students than they have let on. Maybe this doctor from “The Woods” has more power than we know.
Let’s discuss this new couple, Marie and Jordan…is Marie getting the best of both Worlds?
Brina- I did NOT see that coming. I was kinda in shock. I really thought Marie would be with Andre (Chance Perdomo) like God U was hoping. This gives a plot twist I was not expecting.
Amy- Yes!!! It’s a pairing I didn’t expect but I am all in for it. It definitely gives me enemies to lovers, because let’s be real Jordan was not a fan of Marie for a moment there.
Emma is not the Incredible shrinking woman; she can also get extremely big. Thoughts?
Amy – I was really hoping that Emma’s powers weren’t just shrinking and that she could grow as well. But I love how we got a twist to Antman.
Brina – Interesting how the show’s writers took 2 pretty predominant female eating disorders and turned them into superpowers. I am not sure if I think it’s awesome or extremely sad.
Overall Thoughts, anything to add
Amy – When we got Jason Ritter and a puppet version of The Deep in our meeting, I lost it. I want more of that, give me a special even. I want more Jordan (London Thor & Derek Luh) on my screen, especially if it involves them working with Marie (Jaz Sinclair). With every episode, Jordan is becoming more of my favorite character. Not gonna lie, love how Tek Knight (Derek Wilson) got Marie to admit that Jordan was the one who held off and fought Golden Boy (Patrick Schwarzenegger) while she ran. I love how they incorporated him in the show and while they changed it up and gave him powers where in the comics he did, they still included the brain tumor that he did have in the comics.
Brina – Honestly, I’m not even sure what I think. I never know what is gonna happen going in to each episode or anything that has to do with this show. Just like The Boys this show has me on the edge of my seat on what is going to happen next, and they never cease to amaze me. They’re obsessed with penises and blowing them up, making them bigger, making them smaller or having people in them. It really brings out the twelve-year-old boy in all of us.
