It's the busiest week of new episodes we've ever had as we return with The Boys Season 5 Episode 1 Fifteen Inches of Sheer Dynamite. The officially unofficial Boys Podcast returns to chat all about the first episode of the final season of The Boys in spoiler filled detail.

The Boys Season 5 Episode 1 Fifteen Inches of Sheer Dynamite Synopsis

Head Writer and Developed by - Eric Kripke

Based on the comic series from Garth Ennis and Darick Robertson

Executive Producers Seth Rogen and Evan Goldberg.

Episode written by: Paul Grellong

Episode directed by: Philip Sgriccia

Synopsis: A year after Homelander consolidated his power, Annie January aka Starlight infiltrates a Vought shareholder meeting and leaks the Flight 37 video, damaging trust in Homelander. Sister Sage responds by discrediting the footage with help from Ashley Barrett, now Vice President of the United States.

But Homelander wants more, wants devotion, wants to be happy and the only way he believes that he can be happy is with Starlight and William Butcher dead. With this in mind he forces Sage to reveal that petit Hughie Campbell, Mother's Milk, and Frenchie, who are imprisoned in a Freedom Camp, are to be executed. 

Billy Butcher reunites with Annie and Kimiko to infiltrate the camp and save the boys, but his focus is Frenchie who can help develop the supe-virus further. The escape Plan A, A-Train, refuses Annie’s ask to help evacuate the Boys from the Freedom Camp as he has his family to protect. But after The Deep once again comes for him and his family he decides to confront his fears and help the team bust the Boys out of internment.

Starlight Billy and Kimiko gain an entry through a tunnel opened by the supe known as The Worm, who does like the taste of the Rochester Honeoye soil. As they enter Cabin 19, Homelander is waiting for them. As he delays killing his foes Annie creates a distraction, allowing the group to scatter. M.M. kills Love Sausage, and Homelander captures Hughie, but A-Train arrives in the nick of time and intervenes to save Hughie. 

The team escapes after Homelander becomes fixated on A-Train. As he chases him A-Train crashes trying to avoid a collision with an innocent bystander and is murdered by Homelander after provoking him with some hometruths as he lays out how weak, snivelling and pathetic Homelander is once you strip away the man from the suit.

Derek and Chris are back to discuss Invincible 403 "I Gotta Get Some Air". The return of Machine Head is always something to celebrate but did an ill thought out post credit ruin the episode for Derek? Find out in our spoiler filled podcast.

Created by: Robert Kirkman, Ryan Ottley, Cory Walker

Episode Written by: Ross Stracke 

Directed by: Stephanie Gonzaga

Machine Head informs Titan that Mister Liu survived their attempt on his life and is hunting them. He first sends Magnattack to assassinate Titan but he’s able to get the better of the attacker and kills him. Concerned about Mr. Liu’s attack, Titan tries to get Invincible to help him but he sends Oliver instead. Oliver is overpowered by Mr. Liu in his dragon form. 

Back at the guardians base, a Sequid appears from inside Rex, which Monster Girl destroys, but it raises further questions over whether Mark’s choice to murder Rus Livingston was the correct decision. But as the Flaxans return and attack Earth, prompting Mark to join the Guardians to finally push back the forces his father had defeated before.

During the battle Robot and Monster Girl enter the Flaxan dimension to destroy their technology from the other side, discovering a highly advanced civilization that poses a major threat. But as the rest of the team try to travel through the portal, a fleeing Flaxan destroys it, trapping Robot and Monster Girl in the other dimension. 

When Mark learns that Oliver has been put in danger by Titan he fights Mr. Liu, forcing him to retreat and almost kills Titan until Oliver intervenes. 

With Liu still free, Titan is forced to join Machine Head's Order for his own protection. But as he joins the group he learns Mr. Liu has also returned and both of them will now report to Machine Head. 

Meanwhile with her powers going out of control a concerned Eve finds out she is pregnant.

Created by: Robert Kirkman, Ryan Ottley, Cory Walker

Episode Written by: Simon Racioppa

Directed by: Jason Zurek

On the way to Talescria, home of the Coalition of Planets, Nolan recounts his ruthless Viltrumite upbringing to Allen the alien, detailing how he taught young cadets and was severely beaten by his parents to prove his adulthood. 

Shortly after, a devastating biological weapon, the Scourge virus, decimated the Viltrumites, including Nolan's parents. The Grand Regent quarantined the sick, blockaded the planet, and exterminated all alien slaves aware of the plague to protect their biggest flaw. 

The few remaining Viltrumites spread across the galaxy to find genetically compatible species, such as humans, for reproduction. 

On Talescria, Thaedus reveals he is the infamous Betrayer who assassinated the famous Viltrumite leader Emperor Argall which led to the initial cleanse of the species. 

Utilizing Nolan's knowledge, Allen helps covertly gather scattered ancient weapons and allies, including Space Racer and toxic Sinlak beetles for the Coalition to help destroy the Viltrimite threat. 

When they return, Thaedus privately confesses to Nolan that he also engineered the Scourge virus and possesses an improved strain. Though angered, Nolan departs to recruit his son from Earth after Thaedus assures the virus is only a last resort. 

Meanwhile, on the Viltrumite homeworld, Conquest returns and reports his failure to Grand Regent Thragg

Mark meets Dinosaurus, a powerful being he nearly kills despite learning the creature's human host lacks control in his transformed state. 

Tensions rise during a difficult dinner with Eve and her parents as Mark learns Eve’s father blames him for the loss of his career during the destruction of Chicago. Her mother guides Eve to not set the bar too high for her relationship.

Meanwhile, the Sequids prepare another invasion, and Universa arrives on Earth, draining energy from a power plant to save her people. 

Eve struggles as her powers become unstable during the fight, but Universa is eventually defeated. The Guardians confront the Sequid threat, and with Mark's help, they save all infected civilians using new technology, though Mark kills Rus Livingston, the final host, to end the danger.

Synopsis:

In 1967, Thomas injects himself with "V-1", the version used on Soldier Boy and Stormfront, just before being burned by a laboratory fire. In the present, the group tends to an injured Doug, but Marie cannot heal him after the effort used to restore Thomas Godalkin to his former self. Later however, when her strength has returned Marie heals Cate and restores her powers after they reconcile. 

Meanwhile, Polarity takes Doug to hospital, on route they discuss Andre's kindness and bravery while at Elmira before Black Noir II attacks and kills Doug and captures Polarity. 

Thomas Godolkin, now back to health, has one last lesson to teach the students at GodU as he prepares seminars with the students to eliminate the weak Supes and enhance his powers. This he does all with the aim to be able to control Marie and eventually Homelander, whom he blames for the Supes' decline and weakness; But Sister Sage disapproves of his new plan, and after a tense conversation with Polarity in his cell, she leaves his cell door open. 

At the training room while Godolkin makes his point, Marie arrives at the seminar, with the rest of the group infiltrating inside Black Hole; they plop into the training room and, combined, they manage to subdue Thomas after Harper controls him, getting the students to safety. 

Thomas Godolkin is down but not out as he manages to control Marie and, through her, he tries to kill her friends; but Polarity arrives and manages to remove Thomas's control, allowing Marie to kill him. Afterwards, Polarity tells the group to flee as he stays behind as a scapegoat.

Synopsis:

Annabeth wakes up looking for her sister Marie after having a bad dream and vision about her, only for the group to discover that she and Cate are gone from Stan Edgar’s bunker. 

While following the missing duo, Jordan and Annabeth talk about when they discovered their powers, and Jordan begins to doubt his relationship with Marie. 

Arriving at Godolkin University, Cate tries again to get Marie to cure her powers. But Marie does not trust her and refuses to help her. They go to Cipher's house to look for Thomas Godolkin, but Polarity tells them the scientist is gone, taken by Cipher with a plan to “cull the herd”, ridding the campus of any useless powered Supes.

After these revelations, Polarity has a severe seizure, but Marie heals him completely, returning him to full strength and health. He suggests Marie helps Cate restore her powers so she can locate Thomas Godolkin, but again Marie refuses.

Meanwhile, Sam, Emma, Jordan and Zoe arrive at Godolkin University and enlist Greg to help them look for Marie. 

Marie discovers Cipher and Thomas Goldkin hiding under the training centre and are joined by Polarity, Jordan, Sam and Greg who join together to confront Cipher while Marie attempts to cure Thomas Goldkin.
