Gen V’s co-showrunner Michelle Fazekas offers insight into the shocking plan of Dean Shetty, addressing her reasons for wanting to wipe out supes.

SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Summary Gen V's co-showrunner Michelle Fazekas offers insight into the shocking plan of Dean Shetty. When it was first announced as a spinoff of The Boys, the focus of Gen V was said to be on young supes competing for the top spot at Godolkin University.

In an interview with Variety, Fazekas addressed the Dean Shetty virus twist that occurs in the final moments of episode 6. Fazekas, who serves as showrunner on The Boys spinoff alongside Tara Butters, said that the dean of Goldolkin University has a "real, personal reason" for what she's doing and specifically points out that Shetty is a psychologist who specializes in superheroes.

She has a real, personal reason for having her feelings about superheroes. And she’s also a behavioral psychologist that specializes in superheroes. So she has a level of expertise on them that is sort of her superpower, in a way. So yeah, she’s got reasons. Dean Shetty's Virus Is Long Overdue Shetty likely wants to wipe out the supes, at least in part because she's been frequently reminded that she's only a human compared to them. That implicit and more often overt inferiority that she's diminished is likely to be something of a chip on Shetty's shoulder. Regardless of her motivations, The Boys' universe is due for anything that could permanently remove a few characters.

The franchise is due for a significant shakeup, exemplified by The Boys season 3 finale. That episode refused to kill off any major character despite repeatedly teasing the possibility throughout the season. From the perspective of keeping the show fresh, Shetty's virus could be of use.Of course, since The Boys and Gen V are about superheroes, Shetty probably won't get that far. She might even stare down a gory death for her troubles.
