The Boys continues to push the boundaries with its bold and creepy explorations of its characters. After the first season, fans have come to expect some wild and shocking scenes that can be deliberately nauseating and disgusting as the episodes progress. Season 4 gets even crazier with how it manages to shock the audience with its graphic and violent scenes.

Last week's episode was important for Jack Quaid's Hughie as he experienced a tragic loss in his life. His trauma unfortunately escalated with the events of the last episode. However, showrunner Eric Kripke revealed that the "torture scene" was meant to be funny and show how crazy Tek Knight was.

The Boys has never been shy about depicting some uncomfortable and gory scenes that are se*ually obvious or unexpectedly gory. With its political commentary in Season 4 having been very divisive among fans, the latest episode took things to a whole new level with its depiction of Tek Knight's se*ually perverted actions.
