"We Gotta Go Now" Synopsis

The Seven begin filming their upcoming epic “Dawn of the Seven” with Joss rewrites and while A-Train just doesn’t want to leave the production (nor the Seven), Maeve just can’t wait to get off the set as Homelander turns the screw on her and Elenor. 

Still reeling from Becca’s rejection of him, Billy Butcher intimates that he is leaving the Boys and heads to his other family Aunt Judy the dealer and his four legged friend, Terror. Tracked to his Aunty’s by Mother Milk and Hughie he is persuaded to stay after an encounter with Black Noir in Judy’s “Taffy Room”. 

Back on set, Starlight obtains information about Stormfront from her laptop; and Stormfront gets her claws into Homelander after she helps him out of a sticky situation following a dreadful PR disaster...and then gets her claws into him some more!!
