Each episode in Part 1 lasts between 42 and 62 minutes, giving viewers an immersive experience. Indian fans can stream the episodes starting at 12:30 PM IST.

Recap of Season 3 and New Beginnings

Season 3 ended with a significant discovery—the city of El Dorado and its gold. However, the victory came with a cost. John B lost his father, Big John, while Ward Cameron, another key character, sacrificed himself to save his daughter, Sarah. The season finale also featured an 18-month time jump, showing the Pogues trying to settle into their new lives after their treasure hunt.

At the beginning of Season 4, the group—John B, Sarah, JJ, Pope, and Kiara—returns to the Outer Banks after securing some of the El Dorado gold. They start a business together, opening a bait, tackle, and charter shop. Despite their success, the business quickly faces financial difficulties, forcing the group to reconsider their decision to abandon treasure hunting.

What Happens in Episode 1?

The first episode, titled “The Enduro”, sees the Pogues grappling with their new lives. After their treasure hunt, they try to invest the 1.1 million they earned from the gold into buying land, but their plan backfires when they overspend, losing 75% of their funds. The group works hard to open their shop, but when a storm damages their business, they are left struggling to keep it afloat.

As they deal with their financial problems, a new opportunity arises when Wes Genrette, a character from the previous season, introduces them to the legendary Blackbeard’s treasure. This sets the stage for the Pogues to dive back into the world of treasure hunting, as they chase down one of the most infamous pirate treasures in history.

What to Expect in the Rest of Season 4

The remaining episodes in Part 1 will focus on the Pogues’ hunt for Blackbeard’s treasure and the dangers that come with it. Episode titles like “Blackbeard”, “The Lupine Corsairs”, and “Albatross” suggest that the show will blend historical elements with fictional twists, adding depth to the plot. As the group encounters other treasure hunters, they will also face challenges in balancing their personal lives with the high-stakes adventure.

Part 2 of the season, airing in November, will wrap up the treasure hunt with the final five episodes. Expect even more plot twists and action-packed moments, as the Pogues’ search for treasure intensifies. The episodes will also dive into the relationships between the characters, especially the evolving dynamics between John B, Sarah, JJ, and Kiara.

Fans can look forward to more thrilling moments, especially with the looming threat of competing treasure hunters and the constant tension between the group’s personal and professional lives. With familiar faces like Rafe Cameron still in the mix, and the introduction of new characters such as Chandler Groff and Lightner, Season 4 promises to be a wild ride.
