* BestedAtBowling: Hughie and Annie/Starlight go bowling on a date. She plays clumsily, and Hughie cannot believe a {{Superhero}} is having trouble beating him. When he accuses her of holding back, she admits it. She worries NoGuyWantsAnAmazon and that he will feel diminished next to a more-powerful girlfriend. He disagrees, promises her superpowers are a part of her he respects [[AmazonChaser and likes]], and asks Annie not to deny them for his sake. Convinced, she throws an amazing strike and proceeds to crush Hughie at the rest of the game, to his delight.

Following Popclaw's tip, the Boys find a Triad hideout holding an imprisoned Japanese woman they call "the Female". Frenchie frees her, and she kills her guards before running off. While MM finds evidence she was a Compound V test subject, Hughie goes bowling with Annie, bugging her phone at Butcher's request. Despite some lingering guilt, Hughie finds himself genuinely growing closer to Annie.
With their Compound V supply compromised, A-Train has Popclaw go into hiding while he searches for the Female. Meanwhile, Stillwell sends Homelander and Queen Maeve to save a hijacked airliner, but after he accidentally destroys the control panel, Homelander abandons the plane and its passengers, forcing Maeve to leave with him despite her pleas to find a way to save the passengers.
After the Female kills a woman associated with her captors, Frenchie tracks her to Penn Station and makes a momentary connection with her before losing her in the crowd just as A-Train arrives and tries to kill her. Frenchie attracts a crowd to distract A-Train, allowing the Female to escape. The Boys corner her, but she attacks them before Butcher uses knockout gas. Stillwell is pleased to see Homelander use the airliner tragedy to push for militarized Supes, rousing the crowd with a speech, all the while Maeve grieves for those she and Homelander allowed to die.
