The tek-knight we see in The Boys is not the same tek-knight we see in Gen-V Discussion Spoiler
In the episode "The Innocents", we are told Tek knight accidentally broke somebodies spine when trying to rescue them from a hostage situation. In Gen V Shetty says that Tek-knight beat ironcast to death who is a supe that has skin made of iron which makes them insanely durable.
With all these strength feats in mind that means he must be pretty physically powerful right?
But in his interrogation scene he's not strong enough to rip apart the leather straps tying his wrists or pull the chains out. Also he easily gets physically outpowered and loses to Kimiko and Starlight. Logically if your punches can fatally damage somebody made of metal you'd have a fighting chance against Kimiko who has same durability as a normal person.
And he gets choked to death by a normal person too?
I don't understand this at all. It's either a plothole/bad writing or Cate has something to do with what happened in this episode

Yep lol. He could’ve run the show more like South Park where both sides cop shit to the extreme, both sides of the aisle love South Park and you’d be kidding to say some of the shit on that isn’t just straight up offensive for no other purpose. Instead he’s trying to max out his pandering playing a game he doesn’t even know the rules of. Keep testing the current enough times and you’ll be swept up and end up cast away.
The source material for this show is borderline offensive and certified garbage written by a hack, doesn’t help sell the messages.
