When is Resident Alien Season 4 Episode 5 releasing?
Mark your calendars for Friday, July 4, 2025, because that's when Resident Alien Season 4 Episode 5 hits TV screens. Airing at 10:00 PM on USA Network, the episode will continue Harry's story as he adjusts to life in his new human form.
The official synopsis for the show reads:
“Crash-landed alien Harry takes on the identity of a small-town Colorado doctor. Arriving with a secret mission, he starts off living a simple life…but things get a bit rocky when he’s roped into solving a local murder and realizes he needs to assimilate into his new world. As he does, he begins to wrestle with the moral dilemma of his mission and asking the big life questions like: ‘Are human beings worth saving?’ and ‘Why do they fold their pizza before eating it?’”
Episode 5 of Season 4 will add to the weight and the show's usual humor, especially as Harry deals with the internal tug-of-war between his alien past and his very human present.
So far, Season 4 has followed up with the ending of Season 3. Viewers last saw Harry and Bridget trapped on the Greys' Moon base, while a shapeshifting alien had taken Harry's place on Earth.
Back in Patience, everyone from D'arcy to Sheriff Mike was pulled into the mystery. These storylines are the groundwork for a much bigger conflict.
In the previous episode, Harry deals with big changes after becoming fully human. When his alien girlfriend, Heather, returns, he tries to keep their relationship going, but her alien form now repels him. They try to make it work, but after a fight with Heather's father, they decide to end it.
Meanwhile, D'Arcy hides the truth about a baby she saved, lying to Ben to keep the secret safe. Sheriff Mike tells Lena about aliens, but she doesn't believe him. Liv sets up cameras in the woods, hoping to spot something unusual.
In this way, Episode 4 ends with a creepy twist as Kate receives a tracker from a Girl's Guide, hinting the Greys are keeping an eye on her.
And now with Episode 5 of Resident Alien, expect those tensions to keep rising. The episode's official synopsis teases more of Harry's transformation and its impact on the people around him.
