"I thought the whole point of coming into this program was to keep us safe." "Of course it is, and you are." "Sue, hey." "Listen to me." "No witness in the history of WITSEC has ever been harmed when they stuck with the program." "Major Provo, he's just being a little extra cautious." "Trust me." "Look, do me a favor."

" I asked you a question, John." " I'm trying to watch TV." " And I'm trying to talk to you." " Oh, Jesus." "Not again, okay?" "Not again." "Get your rank posterior off my spot." "First me, now Oscar." "At this rate, you'll need an extension for the bed." "I like it." "It's homey." "Oh, man." "Sue, everything okay?" "I can't hold him off, Marshall!" " Open the door, now!" " Please!" "Open the goddamn door!" "Sue, I need you to get to a safe place." "Lock yourself in any room." "I'm in the bathroom." "Help me, please!" "Sue, listen to me." "Call 911." "We'll be right there." "Sue?" "Sue?" "I'm coming with you." "Mary, get Provo." "It's Sue." "Open the door, now!" "Damn it, open the goddamn door!" "Open the door!" "Move away from the door!" " Move away from the door!" " Open the goddamn door!" "John, that's enough." "They'll kill you if you don't let me in." "They'll kill you if you don't open the door now!" "Ow..." " Albuquerque PD" " They'll kill us!" " Easy..." " They're gonna kill us!" " Easy, easy." " No." "No!" "Get off of me." "Easy." " Has he ever hit you?" " Never." "Not once." "And he didn't hit me." "It's not what you think." "Sue, have you ever seen a movie of the week?" "If he was violent with you once, trust me, he'll do it again." "She's right." "He will." "But this isn't about domestic violence." "Really?" "'Cause it looks just like it." "From what Marshall said, this is a clear case of PTSD." "PTSD's a diagnosis, Provo." "That's the why." "Right now, I care about the what." "And if you think the what isn't domestic violence" "I-I need to be with my husband." "John was in a dissociative state, triggered, at least initially, by the movie blasting on TV." "All quiet on the Western front." "Couple that with the stress of Sue pushing on Afghanistan, it's not unreasonable to think that that's why he snapped." "Marshall, when you got here, John was yelling" ""they will kill you," right?" ""They," not "I." Yeah, "they." Right." "So?" "Well, according to Sue, he's been battling insomnia." "Emotional detachment, disproportionate outbursts of anger." "Guess what those are symptoms of." "Pregnancy?" "Who made you the spokesman for post-traumatic stress?" "2,000 Iraqis." "At one point during Desert Storm, my unit engaged the Republican Guard for four days of sustained combat." "I watched thousands of them die." "Literally thousands of Iraqis." "In four days." " Jesus." " That's gotta take its toll." "You have no idea." "I got lucky." "I got help." "Now I volunteer at Walter Reed, talking to soldiers with PTSD." "Okay, so he's got PTSD." "He's still dangerous." "So now what?" "You tell me." "I'm just riding shotgun on this one." "Inspector?" "We work the program." "Find them jobs and a place to live." "And we get him help." "Well, I'll say this." "We've never had so much room." "Don't you think, John?" "Yeah." "Look, I'm gonna go out for a smoke, all right?" "He never smoked until Afghanistan." "Everyone there, and Iraq, they all did." "Just as a time-killing thing." "Listen, about last night..." "Is everything in Albuquerque so brown or white?" "Sue." "Living on base," "I saw so many soldiers come home with it." "I saw what it did to their marriages." "And their families." "I knew it was possible, maybe likely, but I just..." "Closed my eyes and prayed that it wouldn't happen to John." "That it wouldn't happen to us." "I just want my husband back." "We're gonna do everything we can to get John the help he needs." "You would have liked him, Marshall." "Before." "He--he was funny." "And charming as anything." "Everyone just loved to be even just around him." "You know?" "Interior's secure." "This place'll do." "This feel okay to you, Sue?" " Good as any." " Excellent." "Let's spread the word." "Good news, John." "Welcome home." "Listen, uh, John." "With everything that's happened, you know, it might help to sit with it." "You know, talk it out." "These guys have worked with a therapist" " for years" " Oh, no." "I'm good." "I was just..." "Overtired last night." "You know, been through a lot lately." "Everything's fine." "Right, honey?" "Mm-hmm." "Right." " Sue, I think that" " I got it." "Can I talk to you two a minute?" "They're all yours." ""Fine"?" "That guy's no one's version of fine." "Yeah, I know." "I've seen too many defense lawyers manipulate a witness with PTSD into ripping his own credibility to shreds." "Right now I'm a little more concerned with him ripping his wife to shreds." "Yeah, me too." "Look, if this case goes away, a pair of traitors walk, and John's blown up his life and career for what?" "You think he and Sue are a mess now..." "Honestly?" "All I'm thinking now is how I could eat my body weight in blue corn enchiladas, soft beef tacos, and..." "I'm gonna say a side of sauerkraut?" "Sure, who doesn't enjoy Mexican with a side of sauerkraut?" "Yeah." "Oh, look." "Ah." " Papas fritas con chile." " Thank you." "Good." "Soft beef tacos, and a blue corn enchilada." "Cool, thanks." "You'll survive without the sauerkraut?" "Yeah, you know." "Cravings." "Sometimes, you just gotta show 'em who's boss." "Snooze on this, I'll put it all away myself." "Seriously, I didn't line my pockets with tinfoil for nothing." "You know what?" "This is, uh..." "This is nice." "Yeah?" "You should get out more." "I'm just happy to have a beer and someone to sit with." "I've been eating solo at P.F. Chang's all week." "Uh-huh." "So..." "John and Sue." "Am I gonna have to separate those two, or what?" "I'm not sure." "You know, we train soldiers to tamp down their feelings, so the fact that he's not keen on sitting down with a shrink is hardly surprising." "Can't expect him to do a 180 and open up just 'cause it'd be more convenient." "Yeah." "You know, maybe you oughta flip through that big book of plans." "There's gotta be something in there, no?" "You gonna let that go anytime soon?" "Define "soon."" "You haven't asked me how I knew." "So we're speaking in code now, or..." "How I knew you weren't married." "Ah." "You know, the casual "boyfriend" drop-in." "Mm-hmm." "Figured you didn't see a ring, you put two and two together." " How about you?" " Mm-mm." "How's that happen?" "How's what happen?" "Decorated war hero turned JAG lawyer, spends his free time volunteering with wounded vets?" "Come on." "There's no Mrs. A few good men?" "There's gotta be a serious flaw in there somewhere." "Uh, well, um..." "I could never hit the curveball." " Huh." " C'est la vie." "Ah, there it is." "C'est la vie is the flaw?" "Hate it." "Hate it so much." "Can I be blunt?" "Not sure you can't be." "You can knock off the lonely bachelor eating solo B.S." "Albuquerque's endless supply of dopey hot co-eds, and you skulking around in your crisp class "A"s?" "Please." "Fish in a barrel have a better shot." "First of all, I rarely skulk." "Answer the question." "You didn't ask one." "It was implied." "I'm holding out." "That's all you have to say?" "Not all." "How's the rest go?" "I'm holding out for something more." "For something more, you know?" "Smarter, messier, just..." "Just more." "Hmm." "Funny." "I'm holding out for someone who doesn't bug the crap out of me." "Well, I'm guessing that significantly drains the pool." "You have no idea." " I have some idea." " Do you?" "I do." "You gonna be okay with this?" "I'd be a lot more okay if DOJ had let me call in my guy." "We need an expert, not just on PTSD." "PTSD for vets." "You know this situation's unique." "Bringing in an outsider's not doable." "Look, military PTSD isn't my specialty." "Provo probably knows more about it than I do." "So fine." "They want to coax this guy into staring down his demons, give it a whirl." "This is all routine, but I thought it'd be good for us to jump into our prep." "Iron out the kinks before we get in front of a judge." "Yes, sir." "I asked inspector Mann to stand in as opposing counsel-- good for you?" "Yeah." "Okay, John, just so you know, my girlfriend got me a Law  Order box set for my birthday." "Fair warning." " You ready?" " Yeah." "We appreciate your being here today, Sergeant, because you, more than anyone, can shed light on what happened in the Korengal valley." " Yes, sir." " Only answer if the defense asks you a question, John, okay?" "Okay." "I'm sorry, sir." "So..." "let's go back to the events of that day." "You were on a forward scout with Sergeant Loretto" "Loverro, sir." "Right, sorry." "Sergeant Loverro." "You two were on a forward scouting mission." "That's correct, sir." "Questions only, Sergeant." "Understood?" "Right." "Sorry, sir." "What did you see?" "I saw Major Filk and Captain Barnes selling weapons to the Taliban, sir." "Allegedly selling, but we'll get to that." "What happened next?" "We were dug in behind some rocks" " You and Mark?" " Me and Mike." "Mike." "We were dug in, waiting for the field to clear before we pushed on." "And my team fired an AT-4 at Haji." "And all hell broke loose." "Get down, get down!" "Define "all hell."" "Well, the enemy returned fire, sir." "Me and Mike were caught in the cross." "You and, uh, Sergeant Lawrence." "Sergeant Loverro." "His name's Mike Loverro, sir." "Okay, you and Loverro were caught in the crossfire." "What happened then?" "We made a run for it." "Stay low!" "Mike!" "Mike got hit." "How did you know he was down?" "You were in the lead, isn't that what you said?" "Did you see him get shot?" "How did you know he hadn't just tripped?" "Stay low!" "Was he shot before or after you went back for him?" "Mike, wait!" "Did you see the shot?" " Mike!" " No, I" "Yes, I did, sir." "Which is it, Sergeant?" "Was he shot before you got there or not?" "Look, I carried him to safety." "Sergeant Shears, when was Sergeant Lombard shot?" "Look, his name's Sergeant Loverro, God damn it." "Sergeant Michael Loverro." "And I killed him." "Go ahead." "During the firefight..." "I didn't go first." "Mike did." "I, uh..." "I-I gave him the wrong hand signal." "He jumped out before I could stop him." "He took the bullet that was meant for me." " You don't know that." " I was lead recon." "Mike was my responsibility." "I go first." "Things get ass-ended in battle." "You go on instinct." "You do your best." "John, you saved your friend." "No." "If I had gone first," "Mike would be fine." "He wouldn't be in a goddamn coma." "You had no way of knowing Loverro would get shot." "In the face of that, you-- you rescued him." "You carried him on your back to safety." "You risked your life to save that of a fellow soldier." "You don't think that's what a hero does?" "I'm not." "I'm not." "Listen, John, everything you're going through, it comes with the territory." "I know." "You're gonna come out of it." "Yeah?" "Where?" "Good question." "The next stop on Ghost Walk is the Renfro mansion, built in 1890 by then-territorial governor Charles Renfro." "He sold it to James Madsen, a U.S. marshal, who used the basement as a jail." "Did I tell you?" "A ghost story about a marshal." "Perfect, right?" "A home run." "Oh!" "Oscar!" "Oscar!" "Oscar?" "Oh, my goodness." "Oh, my goodness." "Is that my little Oscar-puss?" " Brandi." " Hey." "Sorry about that." "He's still learning the leash." "So is she." "Oh, yeah, that's okay-- he's just excited to see auntie "bwandi," aren't you?" "Yes, you are." "I'm Peter, Brandi's fiance." "Have we met?" "Uh, yeah." " She kind of arrested me." " That's right." "Family dinner." "Got it." "Yeah, that was fun." "Just doing my job." "So Ghost Walk." "Which one of you is the haunted house aficionado?" "Guilty." "Can't get enough of 'em." "Since I was a kid." "Can you believe I'm marrying this?" "Oh, hey, are you guys coming to the wedding?" "I didn't know I was invited." " Uh" " Don't tell me you got another plus-one on the side." "My invitation did not include a plus-one." "Well, it does now." "Okay." "Well, I would love to." "Now, I promise, I'll leave the cuffs at home." " Please." " Hey, we should catch up." "They're almost at the Renfro mansion." "If you think I'm gonna miss that basement..." "Okay, the sad part is, he's actually totally serious." "But it was really good bumping into you guys." " We'll see you at the wedding." " Can't wait!" "Let's move in together." "You, me, and Oscar." "Okay." "I'll give notice tomorrow." " I'm serious." " So am I." "It's not too soon?" "Marshall, he's a dog." "He'll adjust." "Your pants are vibrating." "This is chaffee." "On my way." "I'm first in, got it?" "Thanks." "Sorry." "I gotta" "Go." "I know the drill." "I like the drill." "You wear it well." "Marshall." " Is everything okay?" " Everything's fine." "My evening just opened up unexpectedly." "I thought I'd stop by and see" " how you and John are doing." " What?" "Isn't he with you and Mary?" " Did he say he was?" " Yes." "He came home for a quick bite around 6:00, and then left again, said he was going to talk to you about job prospects." "No, we haven't seen him all night." "Was he acting strangely in any way?" "Say anything out of the ordinary?" "No, no." "No--no more than lately." "Oh, my God." "Voicemail." " Marshall, it's gone." " What's gone?" " The gun." " What gun?" "The gun!" "The one he said you gave him." "Sue, we didn't give him a gun." "Please, please, please." "Whatever you have to do, just bring him home." "I called Mary." "She's on her way." "I know." "I got her." "Okay, great, thanks." "E.S.U. Located John's rental heading north on the 25, just this side of Raton Pass." "He's going to Colorado Springs." "You sound pretty sure."

"His funeral's tomorrow morning." "Guess where." "Great, a guy with a Mountain of guilt on his head and a gun in his hand." "There's gonna be military there, everywhere he looks."

"I don't know what to do." "I don't know what to do." " So..." " So look." "I'm gonna stay here with John." " Clean up this mess." " Great." "Okay." "See ya." "See ya." "Listen." "You know that thing I said before about you being the problem and not the solution..." "That's all you have to say?" "Not all." "How does the rest go?" "It was implied." "Hey." "What's up?" "I just wanted to make sure that you knew" "I invited Abigail to the wedding." " Abigail." " Yeah." " Marshall's Abigail?" " Yeah." "You know she arrested you, right?" "She was just doing her job." "God, you're like a shark." "You only move forward." "Anyway, we ran into them at Ghost Walk the other night." "She's really nice." "They're a really adorable couple." "Oh, adorable." "They're a pail full of kittens." "You kidding me?" "It's a mid-life crisis with a badge." "They'll probably be broken up by the time the wedding rolls around." "But seat 'em next to each other." "It'd be fun to watch 'em squirm." "Oh, I don't know, the vibe that I got" "That's what they said about Joanie and Chachi." "How'd that turn out?" "Hey, I gotta go." "I'll call you later, okay?" "Bye." " Mary." " Hey." " Hi." " Hi." "Uh, I forgot you were coming." "Oh, now, I forgot to tell you." "So we're even." "Do you want to come in?" "Uh, actually, I can't." "I can't stay." "I just wanted to drop something off." "Oh, well, John's resting now." "Actually, it's..." "it's for you." "I just--I thought it couldn't hurt." "Well, what John's been through and what I'm going through, they don't really compare." "Well, they don't have to." "It's not a contest." "Look, Sue, you've been through a lot too." "You've lost a lot." "A life." "Family, friends." "I just know it's going to be tempting to reach out to that old base of support." "Don't." "If you need to reach out, reach out to me, okay?" "Okay." " Thank you." " Sure." " Take care." " Bye." "Okay, great." "Thanks." "Yeah." "Bye, Luke." "Well, Provo got into it with Colorado Springs P.D." "They're gonna look the other way on the funeral incident, concealed weapons charge." "So John's still on track to testify." " Good." " Yeah." "Good." "So..." ""Luke" now." "Interesting." "What's interesting?" "It's his name." "You two went to lunch?" "I had to eat." "He was there." "Whatever." "You make it sound so romantic." "Romantic?" "Marshall." "Look at me." "Babar's sexier than I am." "Pregnant women are only less attractive to men who have never... consummated with one." "Oh." "What?" "No." "I mean, it wasn't my baby." "Blech, Marshall." "Gross." "Look, if you're into that stuff, find a website." "No, it's complicated." "I was in college" "Okay, you need to stop talking now." "What is all this?" "What, you got a mope angling for new digs?" "Uh, it's, uh..." "It's not for a witness." "It's for me." "For me and Abigail, actually." "You and Abigail." "Interesting." "So who's renting the u-haul?" "Still sorting that out." "We've both gotten pretty set in our ways." "Yeah, well..." "How set in her ways could a 12-year-old get, right?" "Point is, my place doesn't feel right to her, her place doesn't feel right to me." "Hmm." "That's odd." "I mean, Abigail's so neat and girly, and you're so neat and girly." "Well, you know what I think." "It's not a sign that we shouldn't move in together." "It's a--a glitch." " A glitch." " A bump." "A bump." "Huh." "Here you go." "How about this place?" "The prairie-style one." "It's perfect." "Ask any aquaphobic six-year-old." "There are benefits to staying out of the pool." "You get to mock the nose plugs and the kickboards, eat ice cream without watching the clock for 30 minutes after." "And the dry itch aftermath, the bleachy stench of chlorine is someone else's cross to bear." "But sitting poolside as others splash around can tempt even the most timid." "If you're feeling brave, you close your eyes, count to five, take a breath, and jump." "And you hope that someone stronger, more currently reliable-- your own sumo-sized CPA-- will be there to pull through the kicks and the gulps, the bubbles and the gasps." "You always work this late?" "Huh." "Well, my current condition tends to limit my dance card." "Anyway, between a backlog of these after-action reports and these marshal service pregnancy forms," "I'm doing paperwork for two." "Well, how about dinner instead?" "Also for two." "You can't believe these forms." "That eager to get rid of me, huh?" "Hey, you know those, uh, little berets you guys wear?" "You got any extra?" "I gotta do something about Stan's uniform envy" " He'd love it." "We'd really love it." " Answer the question." " You didn't ask one." "Yeah, I did." "Wow." "Your timing's crap." "Same reason I could never hit the curveball." " Oh, really?" " Yep." "One dinner." "I'm on a hop back to D.C. in the morning." "It's just dinner." "You'll get me the little beret?" "So that's a yes?" "It was implied."
