The next episode of The Boys season 4 will be released on Amazon Prime on Thursday, July 11, 2024, at 3 am ET. The streaming platform is available in approximately 200 countries and territories, which means those with a subscription in these regions can watch the show without any hindrance.
However, for those who do not have access to the streaming platform, VPNs are the only way to watch the episode. Virtual Private Networks such as Express VPN and Nord VPN can come in handy for fans of the show who do not have access to Amazon Prime.
After the Prime App (available for $14.99 a month) and a VPN app have been downloaded, one must keep the VPN running in the background while selecting the location of the device. While the location can be set to any region where Prime is accessible, the US is preferred.

A gist of season 4 of the show
The main premise of the show remains the same this season as well, and it focuses on Vought International's morally corrupt Supes, The Seven vs the vigilante group The Boys. However, the intensity of their hatred towards one another has drastically increased this season. The official logline for the show reads:
"In Season Four, the world is on the brink. Victoria Neuman is closer than ever to the Oval Office and under the muscly thumb of Homelander, who is consolidating his power. Butcher, with only months to live, has lost Becca’s son and his job as The Boys’ leader. The rest of the team are fed up with his lies. With the stakes higher than ever, they have to find a way to work together and save the world before it’s too late."

What to expect from the upcoming episode of the show
As previously stated, episode 7 of The Boys will be based on Christmas. Fans can expect to see a lot of Butcher grappling with conflicting opinions about the production and usage of Compound V. This is because Joe Kessler, Butcher's imaginary alter ego friend, pointed out in the last episode that it could kill all the Supes.
Fans can also expect to see the bond between Homelander and Firecracker strengthen. Those who have been following the show since the beginning would be aware of the nature of the relationship the two share.
Until now, Homelander has not been very respectful towards Firecracker or her powers. However, with the upcoming developments in the show, the relationship between the two can take an interesting turn.
