I think it will stay there till the pitcher dies off. Most probably found a rich supply of foo(insects) to feed on, must be enjoying itself in a nice spa

it wont die but enjoy the coolness and safety surrounded by the amp wall. If you check late evening it will disappear and return to the same pitcher next day.

The frog is not there anymore when I checked this morning. I think it got in there on purpose as it usually seeks cool and wet places. Have encountered bigger ones sitting in pot but this is first in cup. Will see if it returns.

The frogs should benefit the plant by excreting inside the pitcher. If you go to nurseries where they sell lots of pitcher plants, you may occasionally see frogs inside them. Most of the time, they are found in mirandas.
