The Boys

General

Frenchie, whose real name is Serge, is one of the three tritagonists of the Amazon series The Boys (along with Mother's Milk and Kimiko Miyashiro). He is a major character in Seasons 2, 3 and 4, and is the tritagonist of Season 1. A drug-dabbling, gunrunning, chemist, bomb maker, former hitman, and jack-of-all-trades, Frenchie is an invaluable resource to Butcher and The Boys. However, his impulsive decisions are an eternal source of frustration to Mother's Milk. Frenchie has a history as a killer-for-hire and carries a tremendous amount of guilt about the pain he’s inflicted on others. He thinks he finds potential salvation when he frees a woman locked in a cage in a basement who’s part of a larger mystery. Frenchie is the only one of The Boys who is able to connect with her.

backstory

As a child living in Marseille with his mother, Serge was kidnapped by his father in the middle of the night. His father kept Serge and abused him for years, moving from one hotel to another. Every few nights, Serge’s father would take him out for a walk. He would smoke Gauloises and tell his son he loved him, but he would also burn Serge’s skin with cigarettes. His father was bipolar and when Frenchie was ten years old, his father tried to smother him with a Hello Kitty duvet.[1] Serge made many attempts to run away, jumping buses and trains to return to his mother, but his father found him every time. Eventually, Serge moved to New York. He was alone, living in a homeless shelter and working as a sex worker. During that time, Serge would watch The Golden Girls on the shelter's "shitty TV" from 3 a.m. to 5 a.m. every day. He claims that the show kept him company and inspired him to "make his own family".

his past in the boys

In 2015, Serge, now primarily referred to by his nickname "Frenchie", was a full fledged member of The Boys alongside Grace Mallory, Billy Butcher, and Mother's Milk. While waiting in an abandoned warehouse for Lamplighter to arrive, Frenchie and Mallory congratulated M.M. for proposing to Monique. Frenchie jokingly offered to help plan M.M.'s bachelor party. When Lamplighter finally arrived to meet with the Boys, they all laughed at his costume design. Mallory proceeded to blackmail Lamplighter into being their informant and feed them information about The Seven. Lamplighter reluctantly agreed, however, Mallory was suspicious of him and asked Frenchie to follow Lamplighter.

personality

Despite his troubled past, Frenchie is an extremely empathetic character, and cares very deeply for the well-being of his allies. He also proves to be the most intelligent member of the group, with the widest skill-set. He is a multi-talented criminal with knowledge of many criminal endeavors, whether it's producing drugs, smuggling weapons, breaking and entering, break-ins and lying to authorities. He's so talented at the latter that he was able to flawlessly fool Homelander, despite his great power. He seems to be psychedelics enthusiast, as when Hughie is panicking about keeping Translucent as a prisoner, Frenchie offers him an LSD/MDMA cocktail to calm his nerves. In his spare time he seems to enjoy baking pastries and other French dishes and is stable enough to coach Kimiko. Frenchie claims he carries the memory of each person he has killed with him, and in one of his conversations with Hughie he implies that he feels quite guilty about his past as a hit man. He later tells Mother’s Milk that he feels Kimiko makes him a better person, implying this is part of his motivation for helping her. His association with Kimiko has also given him a certain degree of fluency in her personal version of Japanese Sign Language.

habilities

Gifted Intelligence: Frenchie was described by Butcher as a "top man," while he himself claims to "know a little about a lot of things," included (but not limited to) chemistry and engineering. He is a gunrunner by trade, but he has developed a certain niche for incapacitating superheroes; when Butcher came to him for help in killing Translucent, he originally coated a round in the same carbon metamaterial as the supe's skin, and when that failed, he put a plastic explosive inside Translucent.[3] He was recruited by Grace Mallory for his imagination after he designed a xanax grenade to take down Behemoth during a heist.[4] He offered an LSD/MDMA pill to Hughie for his anxiety,[3] thought to contact Mesmer for help communicating with Kimiko,[5] he brought halothane to use against Kenji Miyashiro,[6] designed a knockout bomb for Supes, and he knows CPR.[4] He later modified an RPG to release an electromagnetic pulse on impact in order to cut through Stormfront's plasma bolts, and used VoughtSonic speakers to broadcast a 190,000 hertz signal to distract Homelander.[7] He was able to deduce that Soldier Boy was vulnerable to novichok, a deadly neurotoxin.[8]

habilities

Expert Investigator: Frenchie is somewhat of a detective, as he saw a man was packing and deduced that Kimiko was trying to get home.[9] He also tracked Kimiko to Cherie.[10] Skilled Thief: Frenchie is a skilled thief, being able to pick a lock with anything; he used the premium metal wire in Hughie's retainer to escape their confinement.[11] He picked another lock so the Boys could infiltrate a store.[6] Skilled Cook: Frenchie also has culinary skills. According to Little Nina, his Cassolette was good enough to make her "cum".[12][13][14][7][15] Expert Networker: Frenchie made a deal with the Clarkson Avenue Haitian Kings street gang for safe harbor.[16] Multilingualism: In addition to his native French, Frenchie speaks fluent English and he learned a variation of sign language from Kimiko,[14][7] which he appears to have mastered a year later.[17][18][19][15][20][21][8]

habilities

Skilled Marksman: As a gunrunner, Frenchie is very familiar with firearms.[3][9][11][16][7][15] He killed a Sage Grove Center security guard with his suppressed pistol,[4] and he even dual-wielded handguns against Stormfront.[7] Skilled Combatant: Frenchie has some skill in fighting, as he was able to land a punch on Mother's Milk in the mall, before being on the receiving of one himself.[9] He also knows how to use a knife.[1][22] He killed Mikhail Petrov by decapitating him with his minivan door, and he also killed a witness.[19] During the five years he worked for Little Nina, he completed 23 contracts.[15] During that period, he killed her cousin Kolya despite sustaining three gunshot wounds, and he also instigated a bar fight in a pub on Sopelana Beach on the Basque Coast, defeating two men.[

habilities

Stealth: Frenchie was able to quietly rappel into A-Train's locker room from the vents.[1] He also quietly infiltrated the building holding Kimiko Miyashiro.[9]

weakness

Substance Abuse: Frenchie uses drugs to cope with memories from his past, as evidenced by his relapse after being unable to tell Colin he killed his family. During a mission with Kimiko to destroy a Shining Light cell in Season 4 he takes an unknown hallucinogenic drug which causes him to hallucinate which left Kimiko at a disadvantage. PTSD: Frenchie has had a long career as a criminal and hitman which has left him with PTSD and guilt over killing so many people. Before becoming sober Frenchie frequently used drugs and alcohol to cope with his guilt.
