Frenchie's Fate Sets Up Gen V Season 2 Cameo in the Boys Season 4 Finale
Comprising thrilling teasers for the next season 5, The Boys season 4 finale also set the stage for a flawless cameo in Gen V season 2. With close links to the parent show, the spin-off series has included the Supe virus as a main focus in The Boys' most recent season. Homelander attacking Marie at the end of Gen V season one resulted in the main characters being imprisoned in an enigmatic room by an unidentified power. This prepares one for an interesting crossover.
The Boys Season 4 Frenchie's Fate
Beyond the virus plot, The Boys has direct ties via characters like Sam and Cate, who became allies of Homelander in season 4, episode 5. Their return in the season 4 finale, where they grab Frenchie and Kimiko, emphasizes even more the interdependence of the two shows. Under Cate's mental control, Frenchie's capture sets him on a possible route to show up in Gen V season 2.
Possible appearances of Frenchie in Gen V Season 2
Although Cate's mental control may finally fade and Frenchie can recover his free will, it is likely that Vought has other intentions for him and hence Cate's influence will be needed always. Though the exact cause of Vought's extended authority over Frenchie is unknown, it offers a reasonable theory for his possible appearance in Gen V season 2.
Like past comebacks from The Boys characters, Frenchie's possible one in Gen V would probably be fleeting. This guarantees that his appearance would not greatly affect his main series storyline. It would also be a good link to The Boys season 5, giving hints about Vought's intentions for the taken team without taking attention away from Marie and her buddies. With no negative effects, this crossover would deepen the link between the two shows.
Growing Connectivity of Gen V Season 2 to The Boys
The Boys' Supe virus originated in Gen V, which already causes a notable intersection between the two series. Marie and the Godolkin students run the risk of running across characters from the main show given Homelander's plan of incarceration of his enemies. This includes Frenchie, who might become a special case should Cate keep her mind under control in Gen V season 2. The way Frenchie looks could also provide a subdued clue regarding the changes martial law brings about in the world.
The way the Boys season 4 finale ends perfectly prepares the audience for the last season and raises the prospect of Frenchie showing up in Gen V to entwine the two shows even more. As Homelander's most reliable friends, Cate and Sam's roles in his schemes could help to deepen their relationship. As Cate keeps under control Frenchie, Gen V could offer convincing responses about the ending for the main show.
