Jack Quaid as Hughie in The Boys in front of a red splatter
Summary A terribly sad Hughie moment from The Boys season 4 secretly serves as the first step toward another major character's demise in the upcoming season 5. In one of the most devastating scenes yet from Amazon's superhero series, Hughie euthanizes his own father in The Boys season 4, episode 5, "Beware the Jabberwock, My Son." Played by Simon Pegg, Hugh Campbell Sr. became seriously unwell following a stroke. A shot of Compound V returns Hugh Sr.
The Boys Season 4's Hughie Story Strongly Hints He Will Kill Butcher In Season 5 Killing His Father Proves Hughie Can Bring Himself To Kill Butcher Too The point of Hugh Campbell Sr.'s death isn't just to make viewers cry - it's a demonstration of Hughie's inner growth across the past four seasons. During a period of lucidity in "Beware the Jabberwock, My Son," the ailing Hugh Sr. remembers Hughie's childhood pet, Jar Jar, who became very sick.
If Butcher's current trajectory continues, there will come a time when, just like the glitching Hugh Sr., the Boys' leader loses control of himself and poses a danger to innocent people. The death of Hugh Sr. signals that Hughie now possesses enough inner fortitude to end Butcher's life when the time comes.
Being Killed By Hughie Is The Only Way Butcher's The Boys Story Can End Hughie Killing Butcher Has Always Felt LIke The Boys' Endgame Close In thematic terms, Hughie killing Butcher is the only logical way for The Boys to end. The duo's relationship sits at the heart of Amazon's adaptation, and a direct comparison has been drawn between Hughie in The Boys and Butcher's beloved late brother, Lenny, on numerous occasions.
