The Last Ship Season 1 Episode 4 (S1E4) Photos: "We'll Get There"

TNT’s The Last Ship continued its gripping first season with Season 1 Episode 4 (S1E4 / 1×04), “We’ll Get There.”Originally airing on July 13, 2014, the episode shifts the focus from external enemies to an even greater threat: survival itself. After the dangerous events at Guantanamo Bay, the crew of the USS Nathan James faces a catastrophic mechanical failure that leaves the ship without reliable propulsion, dangerously low on fresh water, and racing against time to preserve Dr. Rachel Scott’s invaluable virus research.

Written by Quinton Peeples and directed by Jack Bender, “We’ll Get There” showcases the leadership of Captain Tom Chandler as he struggles to keep his exhausted crew focused while every system aboard the ship begins to fail. At the same time, Dr. Scott fights to protect years of research that could hold the key to saving humanity from the devastating global pandemic. Rather than relying on large-scale action, the episode builds tension through the crew’s increasingly desperate battle against dehydration, exhaustion, and failing equipment.

Led by Eric Dane, Rhona Mitra, Adam Baldwin, Charles Parnell, and Travis Van Winkle, The Last Ship continued to establish itself as one of TNT’s standout action dramas, blending military realism with high-stakes survival and emotional character moments. “We’ll Get There” remains one of the strongest episodes of the first season, reminding viewers that sometimes nature can be just as dangerous as any human adversary. Below, you’ll find promotional photos from The Last Ship Season 1 Episode 4, “We’ll Get There.”
