What Happened in Episode 6: “Cooking Lessons”
The previous episode, “Cooking Lessons,” delivered some of the season’s biggest shocks. After escaping from Elmira, Marie and her group were found by Stan Edgar and Victoria Neuman’s daughter, Zoe Neuman. Edgar revealed a crucial piece of information: Project Odessa, an early Vought program to create “god tier” superheroes, had only two successful subjects. The first was Homelander, and the other, born a decade later, was Marie.
This revelation places Marie on a completely new level within the show’s universe. Meanwhile, the mystery around the burnt man kept in a hyperbaric chamber at Cipher’s home deepened. The characters now suspect this individual is actually Thomas Godolkin, the founder of Godolkin University. The episode ended with Marie leaving Stan Edgar’s bunker, determined to confront Cipher, with Cate choosing to join her.
Key Storylines for Episode 7
With only two episodes left in the season, Episode 7 will need to address several escalating plot points. Based on the events of Episode 6 and the official promo, here are the major stories to watch.
The Hunt for Godolkin’s Truth
The central mission for Marie, Cate, and a newly freed Polarity will be to break into Cipher’s office and confirm the true identity of the burnt man. Discovering if it is indeed Thomas Godolkin is a top priority, as Stan Edgar believes he could be the key to controlling powerful Supes and challenging Homelander. This storyline is expected to provide critical answers about Project Odessa and the original purpose of Godolkin University.
An Uneasy Alliance
Cate’s decision to join Marie creates a powerful but unpredictable partnership. After their past conflicts, they must now work together to face a common enemy. How they navigate their fractured trust and combine their abilities will be crucial to their success against Cipher. This team-up could determine whether they can uncover Vought’s secrets or fall victim to Cipher’s own plans.
Cipher’s Endgame
Dean Cipher’s ultimate goal of creating a world with only the most powerful Supes poses a direct threat to everyone at Godolkin. With his extremist vision and growing power, his next move is expected to be drastic. Episode 7 will likely show him advancing his strategy, setting up the final showdown that will decide the fate of the university and its students.
Stan Edgar’s Motives
The return of Giancarlo Esposito’s Stan Edgar adds a new layer of intrigue. While he provided the group with shelter and information, his true intentions remain unclear. Is he genuinely helping Marie’s team to stop Cipher, or is he using them as pawns in his own larger game to regain control of Vought? His actions will likely have significant implications for the wider “The Boys” universe.
