Why are we still alive?
Dumb luck?
No. I mean that night. We went underground for months… but you never came for us. Not you, not Homelander. Why?
You're disappointed we didn't kill you?
I thought The Seven always retaliates, no?
You're nobody. Not worth it.
[beat; looks at M.M.] You didn't tell them, did you? Why wouldn't you tell them?
Who says I didn't?
I figured you'd boast about it to Homelander. Must've been thrilling for you.
I'm not a fucking animal.
Only a fucking animal would do what you did.
Drop it.
You murdered innocent children.
Shut the fuck up.
You watched them burn alive, crying for their mama! If that's not an animal, then what is, huh?!
I didn't know! I didn't know they were gonna be in that bed. It was supposed to be your boss. [pause] Then, they started screaming… but it was too late.
So what? Are we supposed to feel bad for you now? Fuck you.
I don't want anything from you. [to Frenchie] But you… I saw you following me that night… and then you disappeared. I keep asking myself why. Why didn't you stop me? [beat] Why didn't you?
Good question.
[...]
[to Lamplighter] My best friend OD'd and I left to save him that night. Why I didn't stop you. You were at a party, I was away for thirty minutes. Came back, you were gone.
Did he live? Your friend?
Oui. But I never saw him again, and… then he died a few months later. Another overdose.
Are you serious? Frenchie, why…? Why didn't you ever tell us?
What difference would it make?
After all these years, man? We would've left you off the hook.
What makes you think I want to be let off the hook, huh?
