When is The Expanse Season 5, Episode 6 on Amazon Prime Video?

How long is the wait for The Expanse Season 5, Episode 6?

We are now at the halfway mark of The Expanse Season 5. It’s no wonder the last episode was full of action and left us on the edges of our seats. How long is the wait for The Expanse Season 5, Episode 6?

The wait is as long as you should really be used to. Amazon has opted for a weekly release for Season 5, so we’ll get The Expanse Season 5, Episode 6 on Wednesday, Jan. 6.

Of course, in North America, you’ll want to keep an eye out for it on Tuesday, Jan. 5. The episodes drop at midnight GMT, which means we’re getting them at around 7 p.m. ET. That has been the case for the first half of the season, so I expect it to continue for the rest of the season.

What to expect on The Expanse Season 5, Episode 6

The episode, titled “Tribes,” is going to pick up off the back of the events from the fifth episode. However, expect a lot of focus on the Belters at this point. I’m purely basing that on the title.

We know Belters have different tribes. One problem Fred Johnson always had was getting the various tribes to work together. It has happened throughout history. Part of the problem of getting out from under the shadow of oppressors is too many tribes having the same end goal but a different way of getting there. It leads to too many arguments.

Just ask the Jacobite Scots about that!

Marco is currently keeping the Belters together. Can that last? How long before one tribe wants something different? It’s not like he has all the Belters after all. Camina isn’t with him, and will she join him after everything that happened to Fred?

Of course, we also need to find out what’s next for Alex and Bobbie. With nobody knowing they’re out there, can they get a message out to get saved? The Roci is grounded, so there’s Alex’s main hope gone.

The Expanse Season 5, Episode 6 will air on Wednesday, Jan. 6 on Amazon Prime Video.
