[Butcher sees Hughie looking despondent on their way back to the Teenage Kix mansion]
Oi, fuckin' smile, Hughie. I mean, ain't you a little glad A-Train's dead?
…No, I'm not glad he's dead. A-Train did a lot of horrible things, but he saved our lives, and he died a hero. A real hero. There are a lot of other Supes that don't deserve to die either.
Listen, I know you just done a year in the gulag. You've earned your seat at the table, so... I'll give it to ya straight. You gotta knock this wet, gapin' pussy shite on the head, mate. Ain't doin' no one no favours. Especially your girl. I mean, that's why she's givin' you the cold shoulder.
Don't talk to me about Annie. You don't know what's going on with her.
Well, I know that she finally knows the fuckin' score. And she knows that you poncin' about with this Jiminy Cricket, "listen to your heart" bollocks is just gonna get her killed.
Is there any part of you left that's still human? [pause] You're gonna get Annie killed, not me… but I won't let you do it.
Noted.
[A shield suddenly pierces the windshield of the Boys' truck. Hughie catches the virus vial right as they crash into another vehicle.]
Fuck!
Hughie, the vial!
It's good. [stares at the shield] Wait, is that...?
[They see Soldier Boy walking up the street towards them]
Well, well, well.
He's dead, right? He's supposed to be dead?
Supposed to be. Mallory put him in ice for a bit.
[slowly turns to face Butcher] You're telling us this now?
Somebody up there likes us, mate.
In what fucking way?!
Well, we wanted a guinea pig. Who better than Homelander's old man? New plan.
