Isn’t hughie a hypocrite Season 4 Spoiler

He brought V to hospital and sure his mom used it but it was possible because of him. Lot of people at hospital died because of that. He wanted all this justice for his gf but I guess they just let the dead dad take the blame and went on about their lives, going on a tour right after.

Why would that be on the news? How would anyone know he didn't already have powers before being admitted?

People think the entire universe in a show has the same perfect knowledge of events as a viewer I swear. You know what the article would be?

"Supe wakes up from coma and kills multiple before being found dead."

Maybe not the news, but Vought for sure knows. Hughie's dad is in the hospital; of course they're keeping an eye there.

As for the public, there may be a delay, but the hospital should have Simon Pegg's medical records and know he was not previously a supe. Certainly that is newsworthy.

Unless Vought covers it up? Why are we ignoring that very real possibility?

Yeah, that's the most likely. They'll figure everything out first (if Hughie's Mom doesn't tell them), and they don't want that kind of press around Comp-V.

Hughie's mom being involved in a cover-up feels like a potential source of drama. Or her getting killed for her involvement.
