In the penultimate episode of The Boys, another member of The Seven set off for new lands, leaving fans wondering if this departure is permanent.
Season four of the popular Amazon show may have suffered an unsteady start, but since that early review bombing the show has come out swinging. Mostly, for our sanity and hearts.
Not to keep harping on about it but The Human Centipede scene sticks out in our minds for one of the most disturbing moments of the series.
And then, after the most recent episode, we have easily the most devastating death of the season.

From here on out, The Boys spoilers are coming. Some of them from early in this season, and others pertain to the newest episode.
Are you ready for the season four finale of The Boys?
The climatic finale is looming large, with the Amazon show winding up for an intense finish. Part of that intensity comes from a major character seemingly leaving the show for good.
Although this isn’t the first time a member of The Seven has done so, it’s still a shock for fans.
A-Train, played by Jessie T. Usher, has finally learnt that being an informant and going through all this chaos isn’t quite what it’s cracked up to be.
While fans can surely sympathise with what the character has been through, and support the ultimate decision to leave, that doesn’t make saying farewell any easier. Especially as it seems so final.
Considering Homelander’s dedication to figuring out the weak link in Vought, departing before being discovered feels like the safest and wisest choice.
On the flip side of this, however, you have the fact that Homelander is feeling mightily betrayed right now, and so the story of A-Train feels unfinished. Whether that final chapter takes place on or off our screens, though, remains a mystery.
Perhaps the finale will give us such closure, or maybe we’ll have to wait until season five. Either way, A-Train has left the building.
