In the following episode, The Boys Season 3 Episode 5, we saw after the failure in Russia and ‘The Boys’ were unable to find the ‘Supe Gun’; therefore, Billy, Hughie, Kimiko, Frenchie and MM came back to America, after which Kimiko was rushed to the hospital for the injuries she sustained back in Russia from Soldier Boy’s radiation-infused energy blast.

Queen Maeve talked to Billy Butcher about the failures in Russia and understood there is no Supe Gun that could be used to kill Homelander.

Both eventually got drunk, and later on, Maeve and Butcher ended up making out with each other.

Homelander learned that Maeve and Billy were cooking something against him, so he had Black Noir capture Maeve and keep her locked up inside the Vought Tower.

Also, back in Russia, Solder Boy managed to escape the secret lab facility thanks to Billy, Hughie, and others, so he now returned back to America. But unfortunately, as soon as he returned, he killed 19 people in midtown Manhattan using his uncontrolled radiation-infused energy blast.

Yes, Soldier Boy does kill Crimson Countess in The Boys Season 3 Episode 5.

In the previous episode of The Boys, we have seen that Billy Butcher unknowingly had released Soldier Boy from the secret Russian lab.

After being discharged, the Soldier Boy used his radiation-infused energy blast and injured Kimiko severely.

Therefore ‘The Boys’ didn’t go after Soldier Boy that time.

They returned to America, where Kimiko was hospitalized immediately. Luckily, she survived.

Later on, we learn in episode 5 that Soldier Boy also returned back to America.

Soldier Boy walked down the streets of Manhatten and noticed all the posters of the Supes, such as Homelander, Starlight, The Deep, Queen Maeve, and A-Train, and it was clearly observable that he didn’t like them either.

Soon Soldier Boys heard a Russian song, which reminded him of the horrible time in Russia when he was tortured and experimented on by Russian scientists.

This summoned the radiation-infused energy blast again, and it ended up killing 19 people.

Soon, Billy Butcher, Hughie and MM went to the blast site, looked into the matter, and understood that Soldier Boy was looking for someone, that someone might be a person from his past who had betrayed him earlier.

As we all know, MM has connections everywhere, so all of them went to meet The Legend, The Former VP of Hero Management.

After discussing with The Legend, they understood that Soldier Boy was also here. Upon questioning The Legend multiple times, he finally revealed that Soldier Boy came to meet him in order to know his ex-girlfriend’s whereabouts, Crimson Countess.

After that, Billy, MM and Hughie went to Crimson Countess first and learned that SoldierBoy had returned to America to kill Crimson Countess, who had earlier backstabbed him and handed him over to the Russians.

We know that Soldier Boy also killed MM’s family, so MM was patiently waiting for Soldier Boy as he thought they would be able to stop Soldier Boy with the help of Billy, Hughie and Starlight.

But Billy and Hughie had other plans. They thought the only way to stop Homelander would be to use Soldier Boy as a weapon against him so that during their fight or confrontation, Soldier Boy could be used to kill Homelander.

But as Billy knew that MM wouldn’t agree with his idea, therefore, Billy Butcher drugged MM, making him unconscious and falling to the ground.

Then as soon as Soldier Boy arrives, he recognizes Butcher as the guy from the lab. Billy agrees and says he had set him free from the lab.

He now wants to strike a deal with him that Soldier Boy. He said Soldier Boy could kill Crimson Countess.

They won’t stop him, but in return, Soldier Boy will team with The Boys, and they will go against Homelander.

Soldier Boy agrees with it, and he goes on to kill Crimson Countess and get his revenge, and then Hughie and Billy go with Soldier Boy to discuss the plan to take down Homelander.

In the next episode, probably, we will see Soldier Boy, Billy, and Hughie going against Homelander and Black Noir to save Queen Maeve, and most likely, they will use Soldier Boys’ powers to take them down.

But as of The Boys Season 3 Episode 5, we have seen how deadly Soldier Boys’ powers are.

First, he injured Kimiko so severely with just one blast of Radiation-Infused Energy, resulting in Kimiko losing her powers. Then, he killed Crimson Countess with his radiation-infused energy blasts and melted her body to the bone.

As of now, it seems he would be a perfect match for Homelander for a 1 V 1 fight, but the main question arises: Will Billy Butcher and Hughie be able to control Soldier Boy? Because, as of now, it seems Soldier Boy cannot control his powers.

It may happen that Soldier Boy unknowingly uses his powers again, and it injures someone from the team.

Plus, how would MM react to Billy Butcher again betraying him? What will he do next? We know that Soldier Boy had killed his family, so will MM agree to work with Soldier Boy to take down Homelander? Well, we will learn about these in the next episodes.
