The Boys' Crazy Fan Theory Exposes Homelander's Unexpected Enemy

In the final episode of The Boys season 3, we see Homelander's reunion with his son. From what we’ve seen, Ryan took Homelander’s side. However, it might be a little bit more complicated, or at least some fans believe so.

There is an intriguing fan theory posted on Reddit about Homelander's son, Ryan, and it might just blow your mind. The theory suggests that Ryan, Homelander's son, is not just super intelligent but might also be secretly siding with The Boys. Here's the gist:

At the climax of season 3, during a heated battle, when it looks like Homelander is about to unleash his wrath on The Boys, Ryan suddenly steps forward and exclaims, "I wanna go home!"

This unexpected move catches Homelander off guard, saving everyone present. But here's the twist: the theory suggests that Ryan's actions aren't out of fear or loyalty to his dad. Instead, he might be playing a long game to bring Homelander down from the inside.

The most compelling piece of evidence? At the end of the season, when Homelander commits a gruesome act of murdering in front of everyone, Ryan is seen grinning. This grin, according to the theory, isn't because he's proud of his dad. It might be Ryan thinking, "Homelander is sealing his own fate."

The theory has sparked quite a debate among fans. Some believe that Ryan's grin was a sign of him enjoying the power and freedom that comes with being Homelander's son. Others think that Ryan, despite his young age, is more complex than he appears and might have his own motives.

Of course, there are skeptics. Some fans argue that Ryan is just a kid, raised in isolation, and might not have the cunning or motive to plot against his father. Others question why Ryan didn't act sooner if he truly had such intentions.

Whether you buy into it or not, it's still a fun theory even if it is unlikely to turn out to be true. Who knows Maybe season 4 will indeed shed more light on Ryan's true intentions.
