This week's episode focused on Johnny and Gyro as they were attacked by the Boomboom Family. We are introduced to a new character named Andre Boomboom, and he initially approached the duo asking for help as he was bitten by a poisonous lizard. He was actually pretending and approached Johnny and Gyro as it was part of trapping them. This plan worked as his family managed to activate their Stand ability, where they could have iron-manipulating abilities.

His father and his brother joined the attack, and it became an ambush. Later, Benjamin disguised himself as Johnny as part of misleading Mountain Tim, who is currently looking for the killers. It set the foundation for a more dangerous confrontation that might happen soon. The episode ended with Benjamin planning to use Mountain Tim's pursuit against Johnny and Gyro.

Looking at the ending of the previous episode, here is what fans could expect from STEEL BALL RUN JoJo's Bizarre Adventure Episode 4:

  • The Boomboom family fight could continue: STEEL BALL RUN JoJo's Bizarre Adventure Episode 4 is likely to continue directly from the confrontation with the Boomboom Family. Johnny and Gyro have already discovered how dangerous their opponents' iron-manipulating abilities can be, but Benjamin's plan has made the situation even more complicated.
  • Mountain Tim may turn against Johnny: One of the biggest developments heading into STEEL BALL RUN JoJo's Bizarre Adventure Episode 4, is Mountain Tim's misunderstanding. With Mountain Tim already pursuing the killer, the two sides could clash before he discovers that Johnny has been framed.
  • More of Mountain Tim's ability: STEEL BALL RUN JoJo's Bizarre Adventure Episode 4 could also give Mountain Tim's unusual ability more attention. Episode 3 revealed that he can separate his hands from his body and send them along his lasso to attack opponents.

In the end, the upcoming installment could bring the current desert conflict to a conclusion while setting up the next major part of the Steel Ball Run journey.
