Teacup season 1 episode 5 and 6: Release date, time, where to watch and more
Teacup season 1 continues to captivate audiences with its suspense-filled narrative. Episodes 5 and 6 are set to release on Thursday, October 24, 2024, at 6 a.m.. Episode 5, I’m a Witness to the Sickness, is expected to shed light on the origins of the alien presence. Episode 6, You Don’t Know What it Means to Win, could deal with the aftermath of the previous revelations.
The series follows the Chenoweth family in rural Georgia as they become entangled in a terrifying alien invasion. Adapted from Robert R. McCammon’s novel Stinger, Maggie Chenoweth, a veterinarian, lives with her children, Meryl and Arlo, and her ailing mother-in-law, Ellen, on a vast property.
In Teacup season 1's first two episodes, a woman is seen wandering around in the woods with blood on her clothes, zip ties around her legs and speaking an alien language. Maggie Chenoweth, a veterinarian, is looking for her son Arlo, who went into the woods with a goat.
Arlo returns but starts to act strangely. He talks in the same creepy language, and some unexplained injuries show up. A strange man in a mask shows up and draws a blue line around the town to warn people not to cross it.
The official synopsis of episode 5 reads:
“Travis, holding James hostage, recounts how he was shot and took refuge in the Navarros' basement; James realizes the imminent danger to his family.”
Further synopsis of episode 6 says:
“James, Ruben, and the kids bring a wounded McNab back to the Chenoweths'; James has a chilling realization about his mother and her recent actions.”

Teacup season 1 episode 5 and episode 6 are both set to air on Peacock on Thursday, October 24, 2024, at 6 a.m.
Viewers subscribed to the platform will have access to the episodes on the same day of release. Peacock has become a go-to platform for those following the show, and the release schedule has remained consistent throughout the season.
In Teacup season 1 episode 5, titled I’m a Witness to the Sickness, the story may take a more intense turn. Travis, who holds James hostage, reveals the frightening events that led him to take refuge in the Navarros’ basement. The episode will likely reveal more about the alien presence and how it ties into the larger invasion narrative.
The focus on Travis and James may bring in more tension and danger as they navigate their precarious situation. As the episode dives deeper into the history of the invasion, viewers may finally learn Harbinger’s true mission.
Meanwhile, Teacup season 1 episode 6, titled You Don’t Know What it Means to Win, slows the pace of the story. However, despite its slower pace, the episode might set the stage for a bigger reveal later in the season. The bizarre, elaborate developments in the storyline may leave viewers questioning what’s to come next.
What happened in Teacup season 1 episode 3 and 4?
In Teacup season 1 episode 3, Arlo tells his sister Meryl about Harbinger, the alien spirit that lives inside him.
They are warned about a dangerous killer, and Harbinger leads Meryl and her friend Nicholas into the forest to a crater where he first came into contact with Earth. They find a poisonous liquid, and Harbinger thinks that crossing a mysterious line drawn by a masked stranger will help them get away from the danger.
Meanwhile, Maggie, Arlo’s mother, grows suspicious of Lieutenant Olson after discovering similarities between his behavior and Carmen’s death. That leads to Maggie knocking him out and tying him up in the barn, where Ellen unknowingly becomes possessed by an alien.
In Teacup season 1 episode 4, the tension escalates as Ellen, under the alien’s control, kills Olson. The episode also reveals the true identity of the masked man, McNab, who has a past connection with Harbinger. McNab appears to be an ally, but his intentions remain ambiguous.
At the same time, James and Reuben make a strange discovery involving an alien tree, adding another layer to the mystery. The episodes end with more questions than answers, particularly about Harbinger's true intentions and the spread of the alien threat.
Teacup season 1 is streaming on Peacock.
