Homelander in “Unfinished Business”

Homelander

[giving a speech at Translucent's funeral] Today, I can report to the American people that Black Noir has conducted an operation killing the super-terrorist known as Naqib. [pause] But that doesn't mean sacrifices won't still be made. The proof of that sadly lies before us. For today, we mourn a fallen member of The Seven: Translucent. Murdered in cold blood by the cartel super-terrorist, El Diablo. Before he left, Translucent said to me... [scoffs] almost as if he knew something was gonna happen, he said, "Hey, Homelander. Tell my son, Maverick, that I love him." He also said, "You find those super-terrorists." Well, "supervillains" is really the only term, but he said, "You find them, Homelander. And you stop them." So I say to you, Maverick, and to all the sons and daughters of this great nation, I will stop them. I will save you. I'll do it for you. For America. [places his hand on Translucent's glass coffin] For a dear... dear old friend. Goodbye, brother. Thank you.
