Tek-Knight is based on Batman. In the comics, Bruce Wayne's ancestors Solomon and Joshua Wayne were abolitionists. They ran part of the Underground Railroad through the caves under Wayne Manor. That's why Tek-Knight's ancestors were slave catchers.
@@Cody92HAHAHAHA you’re so fucking funny man honestly I almost had a cardiac arrest when I read your comment, please let us all hear another comedic and hilarious comment from you
It actually reminded me of a Family Guy episode, the one spoofing Star Wars: the Return of the Jedi. Everybody’s in the desert above the Sarlach pit, and there’s just this endless chain of them nodding.
By now many people have already guessed that Kessler was in Butcher’s head but the way they revealed it was better than I imagined by having him yell at Becca.
Yeah the idea of the reveal is good but the actor overacted a bit too much. When Becca and Kessler were talking, Kessler talked way too different and overexcited compared to how he normally talks. It seemed so off that the reveal twist came too early before he attacked becca.
People keep acting like what happen to Huey isn’t that bad due to it being tickling when tickle torture is a thing and considered psychologically damaging. Ever got tickled and the person wouldn’t stop it starts to feel bad as the body reacts. I feel like the easiest way people feel more remorse is put someone you would feel bad about in the situation and see if it’s okay “assuming you think it’s okay or can’t empathize with Huey and think it was played for a joke.”

You're the first reactors to catch the Bill O'Reilly reference lol. As expected. Also, "Zendaya" was the safe word because well... Webweaver is obviously Spider-Man. Also, the gimp was Laddio, Tek-Knight's original sidekick.
I really hope Hughie gets the help he deserves after his father’s death and the fact that he was sexually assaulted. We really need the return of the father son relationship he has with Butcher, i really feel for him

It was NOT sexual assault. Hughie disguised himself as someone Tek Knight already had sexual relations with and lied about it. Ashley even immediately backs away when he says to stop. They were not there to assault Webweaver, who they thought Hughie was, and Hughie kept up the act. That is MUCH different than someone exploiting a power dynamic for a sexual act like Deep did to Starlight.

The Boys proved another point about society. Every reaction video has people cringing, but also laughing, at Hughie being assaulted. Just like "prison rape" has been used as a joke for years. Society, as a whole, treats males being sexually assaulted as a joke. An insult to the victim.
@@MrkDorker That's even worse and proves the point further. I doubt those scenes would even exist if they wrote Annie or Kiriko to be in Hughie's position, and if they did exist, the situation would be taken seriously 100%. He was sexually assaulted, tortured and nearly mutilated to be raped. What makes that funny and would it still be funny if it was a female character?
@@MrkDorkerYou literally just proved his point, lol... How society makes light or jokes about male S.A. Just bc the writer intended it to be funny doesn't mean it is. This literally goes back to what he said. How society views male SA. Eric is a part of this society. I ask. If that were Starlight or Kimiko, would it have been funny? I already know the answer. No. No it would not. If it is S.A for a woman it is S.A for a man.
Well, seeing male-on-female SA in fiction on a tv show might not make the average viewer laugh, but at the same time the average person still doesn’t believe female victims irl, so it's hardly going any better there.
POV: One of the female cast, like Annie, is SA'd and tortured, potentially causing lifelong trauma. Reactor's *FIRST* reaction: Omg, that's so f'd up! Poor Annie! 😤😥 Hughie is SA'd and tortured, potentially causing lifelong trauma. Reactor's *FIRST* Reaction: 22:05 & 22:14
gotta be honest, yall are the forth channel I've seen react to this and, not surprisingly, yall are the first I've seen who cracked up laughing when our main character started crying about being sexually assaulted and mercy killing his dad
He literally said "Ashley rubbed one out while tickling my feet" when they started laughing, and the entire sexual assault scene was played as funny by the tv writers, not the reactors. Are you telling me you were sat, intensely serious, as you watched Hughie sit and fart on a cake? It wasn't a case of rape, he was willingly going along with everything to maintain cover, I don't understand why you're taking it so seriously when literally no one needs you to
@@demi8890 yeah he was willingly going along with the depraved sex shit while a screaming slave was chained to the wall 5 meters away from him, and if he blew his cover they would have killed him he definitely wasn't desperately trying to guess the safeword because of how uncomfortable he felt while still trying to stay alive Did starlight willingly go along with The Deep? He didn't hold her down he said "if you don't do this I'll make sure you get blacklisted" by your logic that's not serious. By my logic they're both serious.
@@demi8890 bro invented a new level of strawmanning never before seen by the human race. Actually crazy homie please take your schizo meds and take a nap then come back.
@@Brandonweifu Tf are you talking about? The show portrays what happened to Annie as a bad thing. There was no slapstick comedy, Eric Kripke said it was important to get that right for real victims of SA. And then he makes a mockery of it in this episode and calls Hughie not knowing the safe word as he's assaulted a "perfect comedy set up"
@@knightmare5097do they? When he cries at the end he talks only about missing his dad. Happy to give the show the benefit of the doubt that they will address it more seriously in later episodes, but they definitely don’t address the trauma from his assault here. And, based on the interview with the show runner, it doesn’t sound particularly likely.
I feel like Dennis from Always sunny directed this episode with the pitch he had: "Here is the twist, we show it, all of it" if you remember that episode
The fact that they didn’t protest the statement made by Victoria that “people are too dumb to be entrusted with elections” (paraphrasing) was quite interesting since they protested the idea of a electoral college in the Succession election episode. The electoral college is what was created to prevent the former from happening.
When Kimiko dropped her phone, she could have gotten it in less than 10 seconds. She scaled that wall super easy barely an inconvenience. I see that they did that for the "drama" of the books scene, but I swear if that phone comes back and bites them in the ass.
@@xandermarcus it's a dropped phone. Not flattened by an asphalt roller. You can get data from a dropped phone, even more so the biggest company in the world, with ultra scifi tech, Vought can. I'm not saying it will come back as a plot point, but it definitely can if they wanted to.
10:44 Rana starts slapping Chris's leg when they start talking about the cakes feel against the bare cheeks. Rana knows something about Chris apparently lol😂
I thought the 'Daddy's home' was a reference to season 2 when he rejoins the boys after trying to kill Stillwell but if it's a well-known Supernatural reference too that's awesome
8:56 “homelander is in there!” Exactly why you don’t go in there 🤷🏼♂️ It worked out because it’s a show but the character motivations sometimes are based on them somehow knowing they have plot armor
27:17 that’s what you took from Sage’s monologue to Neuman? I took it as she doesn’t give a crap about humanity or supes. She just wants to play games with the world and if the world burns the world burns
Homelander is absolutely racist and not just him using racism for his goals, in the previous season when Starlight nominated a Muslim supe, Homelander lost it and said "I'm not gonna let a terr0rist be on the seven", it's just his classic racism is overshadowed by his supes vs humans racism
To quote M*M for this episode THERE AINT ENOUGH PURELL IN THE WORLD like im not even kidding if the actors actually did this like the actor for tekk knight got into that sex trap harness thing like oh my god
Yall shouldn't gloss over the other side to the Sister Sage backstory. She literally said she doesn't *want* to solve all of these problems that humanity has. It's not that scientists and physicians dont ask her for advice on how to solve all of these world wide problems, she isn't popular to begin with so nobody actually knows about her (even the Boys who's job is to research and kill Supes had no clue who she was) and she herself doesn't care about humans enough to actually do anything for them because she got ridiculed one time as a child. She's just as bad as everyone else is. She hates humans (white people especially) and is the lead designer to this plan to round up anybody who does not bow down to the Seven as the "Wrathful Gods" Homelander wants them to now be. She might end up becoming the worst one of the Seven by the time this season ends but im just hoping this all leads into next season for the big finale like some Supernatural Lucifer rising type shit
Who else remembers our The Boys skit? It is just as cringey as we remember: th-cam.com/video/Cxak0DtB1T4/w-d-xo.html
When Homelander said "You cant even fly" that was a Super Man to Batman diss. Akso Tek Knight owns the prison/Jail Frenchie is in.
No shit! Where was that shown in the episode? I totally missed it but it makes complete sense.
@@KainErrowthey show an outside shot of the prison at one point at its called Vernon correctional facility or somthing like that
@@mydrillasanjay5397 Very nice catch.
@@KainErrow And Tek Knight's real name is "Robert Vernon." So all Frenchie accomplished by turning himself in, was handing himself over to the enemy.

The Boys proved another point about society. Every reaction video has people cringing, but also laughing, at Hughie being assaulted. Just like "prison rape" has been used as a joke for years. Society, as a whole, treats males being sexually assaulted as a joke. An insult to the victim.
That was not on purpose, the writer himself said this was meant to be funny. Look up Eric Kripke "we view it as hilarious".
@@MrkDorker That's even worse and proves the point further. I doubt those scenes would even exist if they wrote Annie or Kiriko to be in Hughie's position, and if they did exist, the situation would be taken seriously 100%. He was sexually assaulted, tortured and nearly mutilated to be raped. What makes that funny and would it still be funny if it was a female character?
they don't understand the double standards and I literally cannot understand how.
@@MrkDorkerYou literally just proved his point, lol... How society makes light or jokes about male S.A. Just bc the writer intended it to be funny doesn't mean it is. This literally goes back to what he said. How society views male SA. Eric is a part of this society.
I ask. If that were Starlight or Kimiko, would it have been funny? I already know the answer. No. No it would not.
If it is S.A for a woman it is S.A for a man.
Well, seeing male-on-female SA in fiction on a tv show might not make the average viewer laugh, but at the same time the average person still doesn’t believe female victims irl, so it's hardly going any better there.
"Sandpaper... UHHHHH!!!!!"
Might be one of Chris's greatest reactions in the moment.
POV: One of the female cast, like Annie, is SA'd and tortured, potentially causing lifelong trauma.
Reactor's *FIRST* reaction: Omg, that's so f'd up! Poor Annie! 😤😥
Hughie is SA'd and tortured, potentially causing lifelong trauma.
Reactor's *FIRST* Reaction: 22:05 & 22:14
Yeah, ok, and?
The Gimp was sort of the MVP of this episode.
Nobody reacted to A train saving mm in front of his nephew it was one of the most heartwarming scenes of the whole series.
Suraj said some stuff to it
It was a random black kid not his nephew😭 wow
All black people don't look alot
12:58 Chris kinda getting into it! 💀
Same tbh
he's locked in
he grippin rn
WTH
Tek Knight be wanting to party and you gotta tell' em NO!
gotta be honest, yall are the forth channel I've seen react to this and, not surprisingly, yall are the first I've seen who cracked up laughing when our main character started crying about being sexually assaulted and mercy killing his dad
He literally said "Ashley rubbed one out while tickling my feet" when they started laughing, and the entire sexual assault scene was played as funny by the tv writers, not the reactors. Are you telling me you were sat, intensely serious, as you watched Hughie sit and fart on a cake? It wasn't a case of rape, he was willingly going along with everything to maintain cover, I don't understand why you're taking it so seriously when literally no one needs you to
StruggleNation, YaBoiRoshi, OctoKrool, Preview'd, Defiant With Style; all way better reaction channels
@@demi8890 yeah he was willingly going along with the depraved sex shit while a screaming slave was chained to the wall 5 meters away from him, and if he blew his cover they would have killed him
he definitely wasn't desperately trying to guess the safeword because of how uncomfortable he felt while still trying to stay alive
Did starlight willingly go along with The Deep? He didn't hold her down he said "if you don't do this I'll make sure you get blacklisted" by your logic that's not serious.
By my logic they're both serious.
@demi8890 bet he didn't think anything of starlight getting sexyally assaulted episode 1
@@demi8890 bro invented a new level of strawmanning never before seen by the human race. Actually crazy homie please take your schizo meds and take a nap then come back.
In the interest of keeping it real, thats the anatomically most accurate location for a spider/human hybrid creature to shoot web, no cap.
What they did to Hughie ruined this episode for me. Wasn't funny, just gross. Butcher, A-Train, Firecracker, and Homelander saved it
Did you feel the same way about Annie when she was sexually assaulted in ep 1?
@@Brandonweifu That was taken seriously. This was treated as a joke, the writer literally called it hilarious in an interview
@cooliostarstache5474 no it wasn't.people still watched the show and even praised it
@@Brandonweifu Tf are you talking about? The show portrays what happened to Annie as a bad thing. There was no slapstick comedy, Eric Kripke said it was important to get that right for real victims of SA. And then he makes a mockery of it in this episode and calls Hughie not knowing the safe word as he's assaulted a "perfect comedy set up"
@@Brandonweifu Kripke: Well, that's a dark way to look at it! We view it as hilarious!
Katt Williams said it best: "Rape is NEVER funny, no matter who it happens to".
I likes ya and I wants ya , now we can do this the easy way or the hard way , the choice is yours
Which is why I’m thankful that they do take Hughie’s pain/trauma seriously here.
He wasn’t raped , and Kate Williams is close with and defended many rapists
@@knightmare5097do they? When he cries at the end he talks only about missing his dad. Happy to give the show the benefit of the doubt that they will address it more seriously in later episodes, but they definitely don’t address the trauma from his assault here. And, based on the interview with the show runner, it doesn’t sound particularly likely.
@@sparpie But he also talked about what happened in the Tek Cave, so it was kind of a mix of things.
Been waiting for this reaction since I saw the episode
20:14 "so non quirk people" mha brainrot 😭
As for the David Carridine joke...its believed he was wearing a batman shirt when he..ended
I feel like Dennis from Always sunny directed this episode with the pitch he had: "Here is the twist, we show it, all of it" if you remember that episode
The fact that they didn’t protest the statement made by Victoria that “people are too dumb to be entrusted with elections” (paraphrasing) was quite interesting since they protested the idea of a electoral college in the Succession election episode. The electoral college is what was created to prevent the former from happening.
Homelander’s face when the milk hit his face was so F’ing funny
Frenchies plotline was holding this season back ngl.
Just the sex part imo. The rest is good.
I think frenchie’s plotline is going to tie into Tek Knight’s prisons
@@ohimaia8496that feels like a stretch but I’d be cool with it. Give a purpose to it somehow, anyhow
Not sure who wrote this episode, but they need to be fired, arrested and committed
Spidey’s reaction to the “web shot” at MM 😂
When he says "daddys Home"
It reminds me of Negan saying "little pig, little pig, let me in...
I watched this episode while having my dinner
Never doing it again
The way Hughie’s S Assault gets handled by the show & audiences says a lot about how men’s mental health is handled.
When Kimiko dropped her phone, she could have gotten it in less than 10 seconds. She scaled that wall super easy barely an inconvenience. I see that they did that for the "drama" of the books scene, but I swear if that phone comes back and bites them in the ass.
The phone broke on impact, useless at that point.
@@xandermarcus it's a dropped phone. Not flattened by an asphalt roller. You can get data from a dropped phone, even more so the biggest company in the world, with ultra scifi tech, Vought can. I'm not saying it will come back as a plot point, but it definitely can if they wanted to.
"Fishes are Sheep in a way"
10:44 Rana starts slapping Chris's leg when they start talking about the cakes feel against the bare cheeks. Rana knows something about Chris apparently lol😂
Chris has been pretty open about how kinky he is so it wouldn’t shock me
17:50 And The Boys sabotages Homelander's plans again 😂
It's funny when people correct you in the comments you guys get offended but you guys correct each other all the time.
I thought the 'Daddy's home' was a reference to season 2 when he rejoins the boys after trying to kill Stillwell but if it's a well-known Supernatural reference too that's awesome
The Dumb-Sage is always so funny to see 😂😂😂
That ending scene was sooooo coooool
8:56 “homelander is in there!”
Exactly why you don’t go in there 🤷🏼♂️
It worked out because it’s a show but the character motivations sometimes are based on them somehow knowing they have plot armor
5:30 uhhhhhhhh… what did Rana say lmao💀
7:00 That’s a new Chris face. I don’t blame him
27:17 that’s what you took from Sage’s monologue to Neuman? I took it as she doesn’t give a crap about humanity or supes. She just wants to play games with the world and if the world burns the world burns
That was probably the best "kill me" joke I've seen in a while.
The safe word is Zendaya because webweaver is a spiderman parody 😂😂
Homelander is absolutely racist and not just him using racism for his goals, in the previous season when Starlight nominated a Muslim supe, Homelander lost it and said "I'm not gonna let a terr0rist be on the seven", it's just his classic racism is overshadowed by his supes vs humans racism
Keep up the vids really enjoying the show so far!
Bless you rana
“Stank ass Spidey” Chris’s clairvoyance is unparalleled
To quote M*M for this episode THERE AINT ENOUGH PURELL IN THE WORLD like im not even kidding if the actors actually did this like the actor for tekk knight got into that sex trap harness thing like oh my god
Tel knight is definitely this worlds diddy
Eric Kripke: How many classic songs can we make super awkward in one hour?
Here for Suraj’s hair and Navi being iconic as always 🎉
Navi is so fine every single time
She really is
I wonder if she is shaved or hairy
this was a great episode
Yall shouldn't gloss over the other side to the Sister Sage backstory. She literally said she doesn't *want* to solve all of these problems that humanity has. It's not that scientists and physicians dont ask her for advice on how to solve all of these world wide problems, she isn't popular to begin with so nobody actually knows about her (even the Boys who's job is to research and kill Supes had no clue who she was) and she herself doesn't care about humans enough to actually do anything for them because she got ridiculed one time as a child. She's just as bad as everyone else is. She hates humans (white people especially) and is the lead designer to this plan to round up anybody who does not bow down to the Seven as the "Wrathful Gods" Homelander wants them to now be. She might end up becoming the worst one of the Seven by the time this season ends but im just hoping this all leads into next season for the big finale like some Supernatural Lucifer rising type shit
That smile with "Daddy's home" Is just🥶
Hey, Project 2025 shout out! Who needs to write bad guy dialog when you can just copy/paste stuff from real politicians?
Now i want to hear what ZENDAYA's response is to this ep.😂😂
Edit.
And Tom Holland too.😂
The fact the safe word is zendaya because web weaver is spider man is the most hilarious thing in this episode 😂
Waaaaaatch supernatural !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
