In a surprising twist, Rick and Morty just unveiled a sneak peek at what’s next in Season 8’s upcoming episode, marking Jerry’s long-awaited return after an unexplained absence throughout the entire season thus far. The latest episodes of Rick and Morty have been setting up a fresh status quo since the events of the previous three seasons, offering individual adventures for each character. However, one notable character has been conspicuously absent – Jerry Smith – until now.
In a fun twist, Rick and Morty Season 8’s fourth episode is set to bring Jerry back into the spotlight. Interestingly, Jerry appears to have undergone a significant physical transformation in the interim, as he now sports a muscular physique unlike any we’ve seen before. To whet your appetite for Jerry’s upcoming appearance, Adult Swim has shared a sneak peek of Rick and Morty Season 8 Episode 4. You can catch a glimpse of it below, courtesy of @swimpedia on X.

Rick and Morty Season 8 Episode 4 Release Date and Time
In a surprising turn for Season 8 of Rick and Morty, Episode 4 titled “The Last Temptation of Jerry” will air on Sunday, June 15th at 11:00PM ET with Adult Swim. Unlike the previous episodes where Jerry was only shown in the opening credits sequence featuring the Smith family, this episode seems to be giving Jerry a more prominent role. Given that the first few episodes mainly explored individual relationships among characters, it’s refreshing to see Jerry potentially taking center stage instead of his usual background presence in these stories.
Some of Jerry’s standalone episodes in the series are particularly zany because his character often finds himself in serious predicaments multiple times throughout the show. These episodes also provide an opportunity to explore new aspects of Jerry, as he occasionally manages to claim a small victory despite usually losing out. However, these victories often come with a heavy price. This pattern might continue in the upcoming episode too.
