[Homelander and Queen Maeve solemnly watch the floating plane wreckage wash up on the beach]
Once again, the horrific wreckage of Trans-Oceanic Flight 37 just beginning to wash up on shore. Every passenger onboard presumed dead.
…They didn't have to die.
[The reporter motions for the camera crew to follow him and he approaches Queen Maeve and Homelander]
We have Homelander and Queen Maeve on the scene. [to Homelander] Do you have a comment?
I said they didn't have to die. We arrived three minutes after the plane went down. And why? Because we're not in the chain of command. If NORAD called us before they scrambled jets, then we could've saved them. One hundred and twenty-three men, women and children. [tearfully] Excuse me.
[Homelander starts crying and takes a deep breath]
But if they let us into the military, then this will never happen again. That is my solemn promise to you. Right, Maeve? [pause; Maeve just nods] Talk to your congressmen. Talk to them. They'll listen to the people. And together… Together, we will make sure that this never happens to our great nation ever again! God bless you! God bless America!
[All the reporters start applauding and cheering for Homelander]
We hear you, Homelander!
And I hear you, brother! I hear you! And the world hears you! And very, very soon, my friend, whoever did this to us WILL HEAR FROM ALL OF US!
[Maeve shakes her head while Homelander salutes the reporters chanting his name]
