She was his firecracker 😭
They need to make homelander know this in s5 just for the most embarrassing interaction with him and SB to be made

THIS was my thoughts exactly that we could see the formation of Herogasm in this upcoming prequel series.
The Boys Season 4ended its last episode by featuring Ackles in a post-credits scene. The new President Calhoun takes Homelander to a chamber where Soldier Boy remains in a drug-induced slumber. It is expected that he will playa vital role in the final seasonofThe Boys.
