The Boys Season 5 Episode 3 wasted no time in moving the plot along as fast as they could by revealing that the virus had no effect on Soldier Boy. Turns out Soldier Boy and a select other supes from The Boys are immune to the virus due to a different iteration of Compound V in their blood: V-One. In the effort to figure out where V-One was accessible, the Boys form a temporary alliance with Stan Edgar.
All hell breaks loose when Homelander sets a group of supes, including The Deep and Black Noir, onto them. With another death on Annie’s hands and The Boys’ plan for Compound V1, the Prime Video show has simultaneously turned Homelander’s psyche from a god-like complex to a straight-up god complex. We’ll tell you exactly when you can tune in to find out what happens next in Episode 4.

What to Expect From The Boys Season 5 Episode 4?

The Boys Season 5 Episode 3 appeared to have set another heist mission. This time in a medical department named Fort Harmony. Episode 4 will likely take place inside this abandoned military facility that is known for Compound V-One testing. The repercussions of Homelander’s new “enlightened” state will set him on a messianic path of destruction.
Stan Edgar is now in Homelander’s hands, following his forced exit from Vought in Season 3 of The Boys. Edgar is playing his own game, wanting to climb his way to the top of Vought after he was disgraced by Victoria Neuman. Will he manipulate Homelander, or will Sister Sage find her way to deal with him?
Ryan and Butcher are now semi-reunited after a failed attempt to repair relations. Again. Butcher can never catch a break with his kid, and that’s entirely his fault. Seeing the bloody mess that Homelander left him in, Butcher will likely take care of Ryan’s recovery in a make-or-break episode for their relationship.
Annie and the Boys have had to make tough decisions surrounding the murder of supes and the handling of Butcher. The end of Episode 3 saw her flying off in a moment of shock, thinking Hughie could’ve been killed in battle.
Will she come back to help the Boys in Fort Harmony, or will she do it by herself? Tune into FandomWire regularly to keep yourself updated on The Boys. When we know what’s up, you’ll know it too.
The Boys Season 5 Episode 4 will release on April 22, 2026, on Prime Video.
