Exit a PowerShell function but continue the script - function

Question

This might seem like a very very stupid question, but I can't really figure it out. I'm trying to have the function stop when it finds its first hit (match) and then continue with the rest of the script.
Code:
Function Get-Foo {
[CmdLetBinding()]
Param ()
1..6 | ForEach-Object {
Write-Verbose $_
if ($_ -eq 3) {
Write-Output 'We found it'
# break : Stops the execution of the function but doesn't execute the rest of the script
# exit : Same as break
# continue : Same as break
# return : Executes the complete loop and the rest of the script
}
elseif ($_ -eq 5) {
Write-Output 'We found it'
}
}
}
Get-Foo -Verbose
Write-Output 'The script continues here'
Desired result:
VERBOSE: 1
VERBOSE: 2
VERBOSE: 3
We found it
The script continues here
I've tried using break, exit, continue and return but none of these get me the desired result. Thank you for your help.

Answer 1

As was mentioned, Foreach-object is a function of its own. Use regular foreach
Function Get-Foo {
[CmdLetBinding()]
Param ()
$a = 1..6
foreach($b in $a)
{
Write-Verbose $b
if ($b -eq 3) {
Write-Output 'We found it'
break
}
elseif ($b -eq 5) {
Write-Output 'We found it'
}
}
}
Get-Foo -Verbose
Write-Output 'The script continues here'

Answer 2

The scriptblock you are passing to ForEach-Object is a function in its own right. A return in that script block just returns from the current iteration of the scriptblock.
You'll need a flag to tell future iterations to return immediately. Something like:
$done = $false;
1..6 | ForEach-Object {
if ($done) { return; }
if (condition) {
# We're done!
$done = $true;
}
}
Rather than this, you may be better using a Where-Object to filter the pipeline objects to only those that you need to process.
