The Boys season 4, episode 6 has a new teaser, revealing a storyline involving Homelander, Neuman, and The Seven trapped in Tek Knight’s home.
Following three successful seasons, The Boys season 4 returned to Prime Video last month. The new season sees Homelander (Antony Starr) becoming increasingly unhinged, while Billy Butcher’s (Karl Urban) pursuit of him becomes progressively more frantic. A number of other recognizable names return, including Derek Wilson as Tek Knight, a superhero initially seen in the sequel Gen V.
The official X account for The Boys has released the trailer for Episode 6 ahead of its premiere on Thursday. Check out the trailer below:

The video hints that much of episode 6 takes place in Tek Knight’s mansion, where the superhero hosts a dinner party. All indicators point to the evening being a nightmare, with Neuman attempting to get drunk (before her head explodes), Homelander looking uncomfortable, Hughie (Jack Quaid) crying, and Sister Sage (Susan Heyward) appearing to be shot in the head.
Where Does The Story Go After The Boys Season Four, Episode Five
Billy Butcher secured a major win.
While it’s unknown why Tek Knight is organizing a dinner party and how everything goes wrong, the crucial story line established at the end of The Boys season 4, episode 5 may play a significant role in episode 6. Although the last of the supe virus is utilized to escape a herd of đđžđđer sheep, the last minutes of episode 5 reveal that Butcher and Joe Kessler (Jeffrey Dean Morgan) are holding the scientist who created it captive. This will allow them to produce more of the virus in order to wipe out Homelanders and Super-kind.
This scientist is very briefly shown in the teaser above, so it’s unclear how much of this storyline will be covered in the next episode. Even if the supe virus plot is revealed in episode 6, it is unlikely to progress much further because the scientist will require materials and time to build it. Perhaps some of the supe virus development will take place off-screen while the focus changes to Tek Knight’s nightmare dinner party.
Tek Knight appears as a minor enemy in Gen V, but his fate in The Boys remains unknown. He has remarkable deduction talents, thanks in part to his superhuman vision and hearing, and these abilities will undoubtedly play a role in episode 6, since he is surrounded by some of the world’s most powerful people. While many doubts remain regarding the upcoming episode of The Boys, it appears to retain the show’s shocking, violent, and humorous tone.
New episodes of The Boys are released on Prime Video every Thursday.
