The next episode of TNT's hit series "The Last Ship" will be titled "Solace" and airs next Sunday, July 5 at 8 p.m. EDT.

According to TV Guide, things begin to look good for the USS Nathan James as they encounter a new ship that has been waiting at sea to produce the heavily anticipated cure that Dr. Scott has discovered. For Chandler (Eric Dane), he sees this as a new opportunity to add another vessel to his sea-bound squadron. The fleet is in heavy need for one, especially one with medical capabilities.

The ship had been waiting at sea for an unknown amount of time to get its hands on the cure. But boarding the new ship may prove to be a hazardous task. Once aboard, tensions rise between the sea-faring crews and things may heat up and go from bad to worse.

This is only to be expected though in this new world, due to the fact that everyone is vying for control on land and only at sea can they truly make a difference and be independent of any land-dweller's ruling fist.

Boarding this new ship was a welcoming prospect for Chandler, but the unforeseen enemy has played a common theme in this series and it is no different here. Facing new enemies in each episode is something that he has gotten used to and it will just be a matter of time before he can work out the details between this new crew and his own.

As reported by CarterMatt, expanding his reach is what Chandler is now vying for in his efforts to not just provide a cure, but also counter any obstructions and even stand up against all new enemies in this post-apocalyptic world.

Season 2 of "The Last Ship" is just beginning to heat up and, if you have missed any of the new episodes, just head over to TNT and catch up with their free streaming service.
