Cobra Kai season 5 has the potential to expand Stingray's prominence, following a smattering of past appearances.
Paul Walter Hauser, who portrays the wannabe karate-kicker, told ComicBook that revealing a specific episode count for his character "might be a spoiler" in itself, though.
"I will just say Stingray might be done with the past, but the past is not done with Stingray," he added.

Fans of the Netflix hit will recall season 4's drama involving Terry Silver and Stingray, with their fabrications about an assault leading to John Kreese's imprisonment.
For now, we'll just have to wait and see if the latter transforms into a major player.
Elsewhere on the scene, Daniel LaRusso and his old nemesis Chozen Toguchi are joining forces in the hope of squashing Silver once and for all.
Cobra Kai co-creator Hayden Schlossberg recently teased: "When Daniel went to Okinawa, we saw that Chozen had lived this life of shame, coming off the events of Karate Kid II. And that Daniel coming to Okinawa gave him an opportunity to redeem himself in his eyes.
"And we always felt that he showed him a couple moves, but he's always going to feel that responsibility to help Daniel."
Water under the bridge, and all that.

Schlossberg continued: "And so, the fact that at the end of season 4, things are worse than they've ever been. Cobra Kai is more popular than it's ever been, with Terry Silver relishing it and in full force and Daniel supposedly having to shut down Miyagi-Do. That when you think about it from Daniel's perspective, what does he have to come back from this?"
Cobra Kai returns to Netflix on September 9 for its fifth season.
