Factual error: Lasers, like what Homelander shoots from his eyes, burn through the body. This would cauterize the wound and make any bleeding after minimal at best. So after he uses his lasers to burn through the bald guy's crotch, there would have been very little blood. When he's lying on the floor groaning in pain, there's blood pooling around him as if it were an open gunshot or knife wound. This is not how it would work after being burned by laser.

Suggested correction: Respectfully, you are assuming that Homelander's "laser" vision behaves the same way as an actual laser. It's a fictional ability possessed by a fictional character, so it can behave any way the writers need it to. There are other scenes where Homelander uses the ability to massacre entire crowds, and their bodies are shown pretty much exploding into pools of blood.

The Boys (2019)

Dirty Business - S4-E6

Plot hole: Starlight, Kimiko, and Hughie are torturing Tek Knight by transferring millions of dollars to organizations he hates. Even though it's needed to move the plot forward, there is no way they could have known the routing and account numbers for those organizations.

Suggested correction: Both Starlight and Hughie are probably familiar with a lot of organizations that accept donations and gifts through their former jobs as political representatives. Why wouldn't they know the numbers?

Respectfully, that's a big leap. They were political representatives, not members of a trust or charitable foundation. Why would they have memorized the bank account numbers of random organizations? Not to mention the fact that at no time do Starlight or Hughie provide the account numbers to Kimiko. She just starts typing and bam, the money is transferred.
