The penultimate episode of Boys, season 4, episode 7, which has the Seven attacking the Boys’ headquarters, has been teased. At the end of The Boys season 4, episode 6, Butcher realized that Joe Kessler was just another Becca-like hallucination, leading him to unleash a Supe virus that had the potential to destroy everyone, even Ryan.
The group is forced to contend with a race against time as the Vice President-elect uses all available methods to obtain the Oval Office, while Homelander and Victoria prepare to place their political dissidents in internment camps.
Now, The Boys has released a trailer for season 4, episode 7, revealing the Seven attacking their HQ in an action-packed preview.

The trailer reveals it will be a Christmas episode, including an event hosted by Vought as the Boys’ mission continues. The preview reveals Frenchie’s return, Homelander’s face covered in blood, and emotional moments for many of the main characters.
The Boys Season 4 Is Reaching A Major Turning Point
Season 4, Episode 7 Will See More Direct Conflict With The Seven
The upcoming episode seems like it will continue to focus on the team trying to stop Homelander and Victoria, with Butcher coming back into the picture, possibly with a plan of his own. Since The Boys‘ Joe Kessler twist means the virus is very much still be in play, this episode might set the stage for what decision he makes regarding its production. Meanwhile, it seems the internment camps will continue to be a core part of the team’s investigation, something they’ll need to make public with verifiable proof if they want to stop the Seven.
One of the standout moments in the trailer is the Deep and Black Noir breaking into the Boys’ HQ, fighting Butcher and Starlight in an action-packed sequence. This indicates the conflict between both parties is finally coming to a head, with the Supes no longer allowing any wiggle room for them to operate. It’s likely this is a response to Tek Knight’s death in the previous episode, as well as an attempt to silence them before they can reveal Homelander and Victoria’s real plans.
Since many of the factors that will be at play in the next episode are likely to include long-lasting repercussions, it seems like some of what transpires could set up The Boys season 5. This includes the team needing to go underground again given the aggression of the Seven, alongside Homelander possibly embracing his tyrannical wants more than he ever has before. With two episodes left, it seems the show is about to take a major turning point in its next entry.
