   Summary

   Vought scientists built a kill-switch into Homelander with the most state-of-the-art brainwashing techniques ever seen. And the best part? He doesn't even know it. Unfortunately, the files with the activation code were lost over time, leaving an invincible killing machine unchecked and unleashing him on the world. Not even Stan Edgar has the ability to control him.

   When Ashley Barrett stumbles across the folder while digitizing classified documents and certainly not snooping, she figures, 'what possible harm could a beige folder do to a god?' She writes it off as pseudoscience while at the same time memorizing the activation phrase 'just in case'.

   She never expected to have to use it. Not until now.
