Noir was a member of Payback, but wouldn't talk to Maeve now. The Supe then gives Billy a vial of Temp V, saying that he might need it if he's going up against Payback. Billy is still suspicious. And Maeve insists that it's their best chance to kill Highlander, tells him not to mess it up, and leaves.
Billy goes to his apartment and starts to pour the Temp V down the sink. He hears someone on the balcony, hides the vial, and then goes to the window to find Homelander outside. Homelander asks if he can come in, and when Billy lets him in, Homelander first tells him that he's going to find his son sooner or later. Billy isn't impressed and asks why the Supe is there, Homelander complains about the Bureau and Vought, and how they both treat them like they're obsolete. He suggests they ally against the two, doing something more "shock and awe". In the end there'll be only one of them left standing. Billy agrees and looks over at where he hid the vial, and when he turns back, Homelander has slipped away.
Milk tucks Janine in , then looks at his own collection of clipping on Soldier Boy's disappearance.

When Hughie follows him, he sees Neuman waiting for Tony and hides himself. Tony and Neuman greet each other cordially enough, and Neuman tells Tony that she's not Nadia anymore, and he can't keep coming by and calling herself that. He says that they should tell everyone about Red River, and he needs people to know what happened to him. Neuman finally says that she will and hugs Tony, and he notices that his nose is bleeding. He shoves her away with super strength, then runs over and starts crushing her skull with his bare hands. Neuman concentrates and Tony's right hand explodes, and then she struggles and manages to get on top of him, and makes the bottom half of his head explode. She regretfully wonders why he had to come looking for her, then blows up Tony's entire boy. Hughie sees the entire thing, Neuman makes a call, says that she's in trouble, and needs a team to come to that address, then walks away.
