"Get Some" is the third episode of the first season of the American superhero television series The Boys, based on the comic book series of the same name by Garth Ennis. The show is set in a universe where most of the super-powered individuals are portrayed as being corrupt individuals, instead of the heroes that the general public believe they are. The episode was written by George Mastras and directed by Phil Sgriccia.

The episode follows the Boys spying on A-Train's girlfriend, Popclaw, to find a clue to his former motives the day he killed Robin, while being joined by Billy Butcher's former partner and friend Mother's Milk. This eventually leads to the discovery of the existence of a drug named Compound-V, which is frequently used by the Supes. Meanwhile, A-Train intends to use the Compound-V in order to win the race against another speedster, while keeping his relationship with Popclaw a secret from the public eye.

"Get Some" was released on the streaming service Amazon Prime Video on July 26, 2019. The episode received positive reviews from critics with praise for the visual effects, performances, social commentary, and Mother's Milk introduction, but some criticism for not reaching the potential of its source material.
