List of episodes

"Get Drew" is the tenth episode of the fourth season of the American Neo-Western[1] television series Justified. It is the 49th overall episode of the series and was written by co-executive producer Dave Andron and story editor VJ Boyd and directed by Billy Gierhart. It originally aired on FX on March 12, 2013.

The series is based on Elmore Leonard's stories about the character Raylan Givens, particularly "Fire in the Hole", which serves as the basis for the episode. The series follows Raylan Givens, a tough deputy U.S. Marshal enforcing his own brand of justice. The series revolves around the inhabitants and culture in the Appalachian Mountains area of eastern Kentucky, specifically Harlan County where many of the main characters grew up. In the episode, Drew Thompson is on the run with Ellen May now that his cover has been blown. Both Raylan and Boyd are trying to get to him first.

According to Nielsen Media Research, the episode was seen by an estimated 2.40 million household viewers and gained a 0.9 ratings share among adults aged 18–49. The episode received extremely positive reviews from critics, who praised the writing and repercussions for the coming episodes.
