this was really contrived and made no sense, like what was stopping her from just curing her grandmother anyway or giving out the cure to the public as revenge and vindication
if she isn't lying about her current plans then it speaks to how retarded her character is that she didn't just make some new hard on pill for a pharma company, buy a remote bunker and read in peace long before homelander bothered her

This is one of the storylines that really suffers from the show dropping the whole 'corporate horror' angle from the comics and earlier seasons.

See it makes sense that Vought would just make it clear to her that if she tries to release a cheap cancer cure they'll kill her, and that they have supes that can kill her if they decide to do that. And it makes sense if she just refused to give them the cure for their own profit after her grandma dies. And they were happy enough keeping her on ice in case they needed her for something else in the future.

For whatever reason they always want to make the villainy into a personal thing with the supes or certain corrupt normies in the business or government, and they lean away from the system itself being fucked.

>>220169026
All I see here is a powerful black queen with a sensational sense of style and an impeccable outfit.
Without zooming on the pic, it even looks like she's wearing a leash.
I know it's probably not a leash, but I still wanna yank it.
Yank it hard, a few times.
Once she's on all your, I grab the leash in the middle and start wiping her buttcheeks with the handle.
It awakes something in her.
Something quite disturbing, something she wish she didn't feel, but she does.
An atavistic desire to please.
Catering for her master every need, meeting his every demand.
So I put the handle in her mouth and whisper in her ear:"Bark for me now"
Without even realizing what had just happened, she was now my bitch, literally.
A crazy idea then comes to me, what if

I...
I feel like American hands had to have typed this, because I cannot imagine any conceivable explanation for asking a question like this, other than religiously avoiding any interraction with medicine out of fear of bankruptcy.
Knowing how to cure something is about as close to being able to enact the cure on your own, as having access to the detailed schematics of multiple military vehicles thanks to video game autists leaking them on gaming sites to win arguments is to you being able to build one in your garage.
Like, even if we assume that the cure is literally just a pill or serum or some shit and doesn't involve any surgery or physical/radiation therapy (or cultivating shit for which you need a cleanroom and millions of dollars of equipment), how the fuck do you suppose a kid is going to themselves up with the resources to get started making the cure?

Like, even in the realm of dumbed down 'everything is so easy', half of Breaking Bad's story is about how hard it is to get the equipment and resources to make some garbage drug that actively fucks up people and just lets them hallucinate shit, let alone one that's supposed to save lives.
>>
>>220176196
They have her by the metaphorical balls. She can try to go off the grid, but that's a risk, and once she tries this she's on the kill list instead of the ignore list. It's just cheaper to keep her under surveillance at her apartment than to lock her up.

The suspension of disbelief is strained because they never sold the idea that Vought can do things like that.
>>
>>220169483
No they're not. Are you fucking retarded? Everyone knows blacks, especially women, can't read past a third grade level. Why do you think you abbreviate everything?
>>
Anyone notice how all the blacks are either good guys or morally grey? None of them are flat out evil. When Homelander gets Deep, Noir and A-Train to batter those random fanboys, it's only A-Train who does it reluctantly.... and his kill is taken by Noir anyway. Blacks literally can't be portrayed negatively in modern media.
>>
>>220176313
Did the boys do anything in this last episode? They felt the need to include them in the episode for some reason, but didn't know what to do with them, so they just had a dog eating chocolate and butt fucking homelander?
>>
>>220176348
They abbreviate everything.* What's she reading? The Magic Tree House and Hank the Cow Dog? Maybe some scholastic fair books on gems that she got using AR points?
>>
Based. Fuck the world, it's full of normies.
>>
>>220176307
There was no way for her to find a cure without testing so she would need the equipment to actually make and keep on improving on it in the first place. So swing and a miss, it's still a dumb person's idea of intelligence" hurr durr she just magics the cure for cancer in her head".
>>
>>220176614
>There was no way for her to find a cure without testing
What's the issue? She works for the richest company in the world which runs the US and Homelander quite literally tells her they have camps full of subjects to test on.
>>
>>220176675
Not that Anon, but the cure for cancer was when she was a little kid.
That being said, we don't even know what the cure is, or what attempts at a cure look like in a world with superhero serums, so the idea that she'd need to test in a lab, as opposed to being able to piece together things from different peer reviewed papers that others haven't pieced together is silly.
>>
>>220176724
No I agree it's retarded. My point is she has all the assets to do it. She just doesn't. Why wouldn't she pitch it to Homelander? Just say hey I can cure fucking cancer and if we make it seem like it's thanks to you, you will be set for life. Two terms? Shit. Try 12. Everyone would vote for the guy that got cancer cured. He would a worldwide hero. Who the fuck could possibly accuse him of being a piece of shit when he helped cancer get cured?

>>220176811
You'd be right if her goal was to get Homelander to be popular, especially longterm, but she very much seems to want Homelander dead, what with repeatedly baiting Soldier Boy into getting in the way of Homelander getting the immortality juice.

Though now that I think about it, I'm starting to get the feeling that she actually has the V1, because unless she was lying when she was telling what her plan is (which would make no sense with an actual mind reader present, unless they're in on it), then just having a bunker somewhere would be a pretty risky way to control for what if she's exposed to it. Hell, the virus could have gotten out earlier this season if they fucked up even a little bit.
So for her to be this comfortable with the supe killing virus, she should have some more surefire way of combating it.

That she had access to as a little girl. And considering you have seen them at work creating a virus then you know obviously you need testing and not just theorycrafting.

The problem with your excuses is that none of the voight board members should be anywhere close to her intelligence. She's presented as someone who could easily manipulate others into creating an entire cancer ward before anyone realizes what they've done.

But the writers are midwits and incapable of writing a genuinely intelligent character, so her "genius" is limited to shouting JUST AS PLANNED.

In a series where chemistry and bio engineering leads to people obtaining superpowers, you would think that someone being the "smartest person on the planet" would have so much importance. Why haven't vought locked her ass in a prison to whip up weapons? Why isn't she used for research to make compound V more effective as a pharmaceutical product? Why let it be public knowledge that she's the smartest person in the world when she has nothing major to show for it!? In a world where science grant people dangerous super powers, that should have so much more weight and implications!

>>220169551

If this show wasn't up it own ass with the "white people don't listen to smart black girl" shit and was sincere, they would've said she was threatened to not share that kind of knowledge.

That part isn't that weird.
1) Libraries are a thing.
2) Her grandma specifically believed in her and tried to support her use of her power, so probably could arrange at least so much as her having access to a library.
>>
>>220178555
It was lame as fuck, yet people has the audacity to say the show is 100x better than the comics. They're trying to force the cold, calculating, and indifferent personality that stillwell had in the comics, but it's not working.

Evil genius supervillains allow for the writers to use their hubris against them unless it's Adrian Veidt
>>
>>220178749
There has to be a more substantial Vought behind Stillwell to sell it. In the comics Stillwell's thing was that he was a consumate suit, a corporate puppet. He was 'invincible' because even if he's killed there are a hundred other guys just like him waiting on that job and they'll be just as bad/good at it as he is.

In the show Madelyn Stillwell was manipulating Homelander by presenting herself as a particular kind of fucked up mommy boss figure. And Stan Edgar was presenting himself as a particular kind of fucked up standoffish father figure, at least that's how it was played early on.
>>
>>220178211
Just because you're a super genius doesn't mean you can manipulate every single person without fail, let alone manipulating multiple people who may have separate agendas.
>>
>>220175975
Said all you want about the comic but the corporate villany was great, there is not an ounce of human malice in that evil corporation just plain esthoic greed which in a way feels more mounstrous, the lives of people mean nothing to a spread shit in some company manager's office, they only stopped the pedophile deathcult X-men parody when it hurt their bottom line, they were willing to kill the president just to get a military contract for easy steady money source selling a subpar product. There wasn't a real villain just a bunch of replaceble cogs on a capitalist system meant to maximize profits.

Just as Stephen Hawking has no chance against some sub-80 IQ with a shotgun, even the smartest motherfucker have no chance against the guy who can rip her head clean off the shoulders.
