Welcome to Department of Homeland Security, the officially unofficial podcast for the boys on Amazon Prime video. I'm Jim.

I'm A-R-R-

And today we're talking about season 2 episode 4 titled Nothing Like It in the World.

A-R-R-O-R-O-O-O-ron, what did you think of this episode?

There is certainly nothing like the boys in the world.

That's true, yeah. The stuff... in the fucked up

fucked up stuff they get up to with the dappleganger character

my god yeah it's, you know, I, because I, my mind goes through the gamut when he lands and goes in that

cabin and she's there and like, is this some kind of robot that Vot has constructed, the, you know, is this is some kind of robot that bought has constructed the you know is this

Stan Edgar's ace up a sleeve is this some genetically engineered thing is he having a

psychotic break?

Sure dream sequence. She she didn't really die this was she like had a clone that he

killed to make it look right yeah yeah there's it there's any like the

the simplest answer is the one that ends up being correct is like oh there's another soup

that's a you know that's that's a classic superhero power be able to you know the mystique it up and he's got the

slubby middle-aged mystique that he's he's bullying in to be in his sex mommy

again I thought it was I thought it was a good episode and there's a lot of like well crafted

narratives in like people being forced to make parallel decisions like Butcher's wife Becca having to go her separate way

because Billy can't handle having a superpower child.

And you know that that also mirroring star lights

having to go separate ways from Huey because it's so dangerous what they're doing and they're both similar because they like you know they have this kind of like connection this intense connection before the very intense disconnection.

I thought it was pretty nice. It's pretty nice mid-season kind of like over-the-hump plot.
