Storyline
Did you know
- GoofsWhen Dr. Cardosa is discussing with Shetty about the amount of the shot he gave Betsy, the doctor gives the amount in length (millimeters) instead of volume (milliliters). Actually, the Amazon captioning feature reads "millimetres" but if the speech is listened to, and filtering for his slight Spanish accent, he does say "Millilitres", which is still a monumental increase when dealing with a new virus.

Solider Boy: Yeah? Knock knock. Who's there? Go fuck your face.

Featured review
Unfortunately, the worst episode so far. It's the 90's equivalent of a clip show.
If you watched TV in the 80's and 90's (and even the aughts) you know what a clip show is. They take memorable parts from previous episodes and combine them to make up a full episode. Perhaps it was due to a strike, a week of unoriginal ideas or maybe just the anniversary of the show and the writers felt like they needed a break. With the advent of the internet and user reviews, producers quickly realized that watchers hate clip show episodes. So they retooled them into a new kind of lazy episode. The "dream sequence" or the "inside the mind of..." episodes.
But don't be fooled. They may contain an original idea and advance the plot more than a clip show but at the end of the day it's just exposition parading as a metaphor.
I enjoy the Boys and Gen V. I will continue to watch both. However, this episode was, sadly, was a Prime example of when good writers are lacking in original ideas.
