From the feedback gathered, fans appear content with the episode’s overall quality, though certain moments left them puzzled. It’s evident the show has returned to its original style and made intriguing narrative choices. For instance, one Twitter user expressed complete confusion:

Simultaneously, a comment on IMDb lauded the episode, stating, “The Boys Season 4 Episode 6 is a fantastic addition to the already impressive fourth season. This episode delves deeper into the supes’ ultimate plan, revealing previously unknown details. The drama remains consistently engaging, and the Tek Manor serves as an excellent setting for much of the episode.”
