Warning: If you haven't seen episode 5 of Peacemaker yet, major spoilers follow.

The bonkers fifth episode of James Gunn's The Suicide Squad spinoff is now streaming on HBO Max, and we have a first look at some footage from next week's installment courtesy of a revealing promo for "Murn After Reading."

In the closing moments of "Monkey Dory," Adebayo (Danielle Brooks) discovered that Clemson Murn (Chukwudi Iwuji) was a Butterfly when she put on Peacemaker's x-ray vision helmet. It looks like Murn (if that is his real name) is going to manage to incapacitate the rookie A.R.G.U.S. agent, but there may be more going on here than we realize.

Elsewhere, Christopher Smith's (John Cena) father (Robert Patrick) vows to put down his own son permanently, and he plans on using his White Dragon supervillain suit along with an army of white supremacists to get the job done. Unfortunately, Smith is far too preoccupied with his "pet" butterfly to see the threat coming.

Only three more episodes to go! Have you guys been enjoying Peacemaker so far? Be sure to share your thoughts down below, and check out our review of the first 7 episodes here.

You know what Gunn would probably be great for and fit his love of obscure characters

Wonder what will happen with White Dragon, final boss for peacemaker or potential big bad of potential season 2

@dracula - I’m guessing final boss. We’ve already seen the suit, just needs dear old dad in it now.

@WruceBayne - Vigilante also pointed weak points in the White Dragon suit. Peacemaker is totally killing his dad in the finale.

@luckypenny - definitely

I loved John Cena's portrayal of Peacemaker in The Suicide Squad. But as the main character in his own show, he's barely tolerable. He and Harcourt are my least favorite characters.

Vigilante is the best character, hands down.

@ymk700 - I mean I'll give you Harcourt, she's kinda bland, but I think Cena is doing a great job actually. Much better than I expected

@ymk700 - you’re in a small minority then cuz it’s getting critical acclaim, his performance too

problem with this show is that none of the characters are likable.

@micvalpro - they said the same about The Suicide Squad yet critics adored it

@McMurdo - SS to me, has very likable characters. That magic he had in SS is missing in Peacemaker.

@micvalpro - Agreed. He makes a very good supporting character who shows up every now and then to deliver some funny lines and scenes. But when he is the main character, he becomes obnoxious. He sounds like he is shouting all his lines. A little more subtlety would help his portrayal.
