dean shetty physical comforting cate knowing her mom hasn’t touched her in years.
and than beforehand we saw her trying to manipulate marie - talking about her sister, bringing up a daughter to relate to her, and than gleaming about how proud she was of marie knowing that marie hasn’t felt love in years and thinks so little of herself.
still can’t believe that the way marie and jordan found out about the virus was bc dr. cardosa decided to do a drunken monologue about how much he hates indira
Calling it now, though I know it's a reach, but I think Dean Shetty and Victoria Neuman are sisters whose story mirrors Marie and Annabeth's. I have a whole theory built around this, but I'll leave you with this for now.
No because I just realised Dean Shetty is played by the same person who plays Kate's mother in Bridgerton and hot Beelzebub (like extremely hot) in Good Omens like range, mother. Shelley Conn you will always be famous.
ok so are we team cate-actually-killed-shetty or are we team cate-created-all-of-that-in-their-minds-as-one-of-shetty’s-last-plans-to-radicalize-supes?
The thing I love the most about Marie in this episode is just how easy it is for her to have an objective view in the group. And this might be because, you know, she hasn’t known them as long. But it’s really interesting and powerful that, no, she doesn’t forgive Cate.
She doesn’t make excuses and doesn’t suddenly forgive someone for doing something against her will. But I think Marie can see that Cate thought she was helping.
it’s been a little quiet in the gen v/limoreau tags so…what’s everyone most looking forward to or is most hoping will happen in the next episode?
personally, i am very much looking forward to the tag team cocksplosion pt 2 team up and i’m hoping we’ll also finally get the limoreau conversation that’s been needing to happen since episode four. i’m also hoping to learn more about this virus and dean shetty’s intentions with it, bc i need to know if they plan on straight up using it to kill supes or take their powers away, or just control them.
Some thoughts about the control virus that dr Cardosa mentioned in ep 5
So they’re like definitely trying to make a virus to control supes. Idk if this is the main goal of the woods, but I’m pretty sure this is Cardosa’s goal
Cardosa talked about keeping Sam being pointless since golden boy was gone. Were they using Sam to tailor a virus to control golden boy so that Vought wouldn’t have another Homelander situation?
How close are they to completing the virus? And is it like a general all supe control thing because tek night seemed super chill with everything happening with the woods and I don’t think he would feel that way if the virus could be used on him. But maybe he doesn’t care since he’s dying anyways
I've grown more attached to the version of Gen V that lives inside my head than the show itself at this point. Shetty's motivation is just as boring now as it was when it was Butcher's, I wish we had gotten something more compelling than "boo hoo Homelander hurt someone I loved now I want to enact Supe Genocide" 🙄
Tek knight is such a creep and all but his powers were kinda cunty idk.. maybe I was too high when I first watched that ep but idk the way he got people to crack left me speechless. He’s insane
