Trivia
The musical number was shot in one day, but Karen Fukuhara (Kimiko) and Tomer Capone (Frenchie) rehearsed six times, with an additional two rehearsals with the dancers. In the musical number, Tomer is seen wearing non-slip dance shoes, not Frenchie's usual boots.

Goofs
It makes no sense that Soldier Boy manages to make his way back to America so quickly. He has little understanding of the modern world after being kept in isolation for 40 years, and in fact spent most of that time in stasis. He does not speak the language and cannot even read the Russians street signs, airport announcements etc which use the Cyrillic alphabet. Yet he turns up in New York City a mere day or two after the Boys themselves have been whisked back home on Nina's private jet.

Quotes
Billy Butcher: With great power comes the absolute certainty that you'll turn into a right cunt.

Soldier Boy

All I can say is holy hell! Ackles knocks it out of the park. Urban and Ackles, powerful chemistry. Wait for the next episode this is turning out to be one of the most exciting seasons of the boys.

I will say, one of the best things about this all is finding out how much of a snowflake the right turn into when truth and satire are written exceptionally (which, spoiler-all comics are a commentary on politics and"civil" society) it really, really piss off the conservatives and gets them all angry. Hilarious. Great bonus from a great show.
