What Happened In The Previous Episode?
Parish Episode 5 is named Kumba and it is helmed by Ernest Dickerson. The story is penned by Ryan Maldonado, Eduardo Javier Cant, Cori Uchida, and Adam Lash while the teleplay was by the same team with an addition to Theo Travers and Sunu Gonera. Released on April 28th, 2024, it shows Gray finally going home.
Rose Parish and Mak try to escape from the kidnappers. They end up killing a criminal and Rose decides to call the cops but goes against it because of advice from Gray.
A face-off between Anton and the Horse also takes place in the episode. We also see Gray trying to hide the dead bodies left by Rose. He seeks the help of Colin. As Horse goes to Cape Town, Zenzo has a big responsibility to head the New Orleans.
The biggest surprise of this episode is that Zenzo has been planning the demise of Horse as he is the mole of the story. We also see a desperate Gray going to lengths to mint money. For that, he burns his house down which is insured.
What To Expect From Parish Episode 6?
Parish Episode 6 is called A Good Man and it’s written by Hanna McIntosh and Theo Travers. It is the final episode of this season so a lot is going to happen as Ray tries to avenge the death of his son which started everything. He might befriend Horse to finally execute Anton. But since they have their own motivations as well as a distinct personality, it’s unlikely to happen.
The Horse is also going after Anton and the motivation was revealed in the prior episode. Gray has the goal of finding out the real identity of the person who killed his son. Since we know about his criminal past, Gray will find out and kill that person. All these events will unfold in Parish Episode 6.

Parish Episode 6 will be released on Sunday, May 5th, 2024 on AMC. All the episodes are around an hour long so the same is expected from it. It might be longer also since it’s the final episode.
Viewers who miss it on television can catch Parish Episode 6 on AMC+ if they have a subscription. This episode will be the finalized showcase of the fate of Parish, his family as well as characters like Anton and Horse.
Conclusion
Parish is a grim and gritty tale of a man who is coping with the demise of his son. But he was a criminal and becomes that version again to avenge. Giancarlo Esposito plays the titular character with a lot of panache and his charm lifts the show to another level. Parish Episode 6 will have him for a final time.
