The first season of The Boys spinoff ends with an epic battle and some even more epic cameos.

Here’s how the Gen V finale went down.

This article contains spoilers forGen Vseason 1 episode 8.

London Thor (Jordan Li), Derek Luh (Jordan Li), Chance Perdomo (Andre Anderson), Jaz Sinclair (Marie Moreau) on Gen V episode 8.

And thats exactly whatepisode 8 The Guardians of Godolkinended up being.

So to war Cate and Sam go.

How long have those supes been down there?

Is Gangnam Style still a thing?

Ashley and company were actually at God U to brainstorm ideas for the next member of The Seven.

Marie is ultimately successful in stopping the rampaging Cate by blowing up her arm.

A Homelander Cameo?

Well, that same thought is bound to occur when watching the violence at God U.

Why doesnt Ashley just call Homelander a.k.a.

the strongest, most terrifying, and most invulnerable man in the world to help out?

Well, becauseThe Boysis a logical, well-run franchise, Ashley does exactly that.

Do you like attacking your own kind?

Lest you forget, our star-spangled boy really is a morally inconsistent fascist.

Homelander then unleashes his laser vision directly into Maries chest and the episode cuts to black.

Where Do Marie, Andre, Jordan, and Emma End Up?

So Marie is dead right?

Honestly I really thought she was for a moment.

Thankfully though, Marie does survive the encounter, with her strength impressing Andre.

Here is where things get weird though.

Marie urgently asks before the season ends.

Thats a great question and not one we immediately know the answer to.

Well have to wait until season 2 to see why theyre not.

Are Cate and Sam Baddies Now?

Are far as were concerned, yes Cate and Sam are baddies now.

According to the rest of the world, however, theyre heroes.

Billy Butchers Post-Credit Scene Explained

Now what would aBoysspinoff be without at least one Boy?

Unlike Marie and companys ending, its actually quite easy to discern where Butchers scene takes place.

Butcher has somehow gained access to the now-abandoned Woods under Goldolkin University.

What, exactly, could Butcher be looking for in The Woods?

There are quite a few possibilities, truth be told.

Alternatively, he could be looking for more dirt to dig up on Vought.

Whats Next for Gen V Season 2 and The Boys Season 4?

Whatever hes looking for, Butcher seems pretty confident that hes found it.

And thats probably bad news for The Seven inThe Boysseason 4.

All eight episodes ofGen Vseason 1 are available to stream on Prime Video now.
