"Previously on Army Wives..." "They can't do an MRI till the swelling goes down." "They think I might've torn my ACL." "Which means..." "Surgery." "Six months physical therapy." "Looks like I won't be deploying with my unit." "All I can tell you is that if they need me, I'm gone." "I've also requested entry into a VA treatment center in Vermont for PTSD." "We are trying to protect you from a potentially dangerous situation." "I don't need you to protect me, Dad." "I know him." "And now he's enlisted and he's leaving." "This has got to be your idea." " I had nothing to do with it." " So, thanks a lot, Dad." "For giving me the same crappy life that you gave my mother." " Are you sure?" " Yeah." "I just never thought my first time would be on an Army post." "Me either." "Amanda?" "Where are you?" "It's now 7:00 a. m." "Where the hell are you?" "Amanda." "Where have you been?" "Didn't you get my messages?" "I turned my phone off." "This is not okay and you're damn lucky your father's already at work." "Calm down." "I'm fine." "And I'm tired." "I'm gonna go to bed." "Since when do you stay out all night and talk to me like this?" "I'm going through a lot right now, Mom." "Please, just leave me alone." "I'm still your mother and I deserve an explanation." "Okay." "You want an explanation?" "I was out all night with Jeremy." "Having sex." "And, yes, it was the first time." "And I know you." "And I know what you're gonna say." "And I will not let you ruin this for me." " Stop!" "Stop!" " Hey!" " Hey!" "Stop it!" "Both of you." "Sit down!" " Stop!" "Give me that!" "No." "I saw it first." " Damn it!" " Bad word!" "Ten cents in the jar." ""Damn it" is not a bad word for adults, only for kids." "Where's my cereal?" "Look, we're out of milk." "So, I'm trying to..." "Here." "Take a brownie." "But Dad said to eat a healthy breakfast." "Yeah." "Well, Dad isn't here right now." "So I'm doing the best we can." "Best we can." "Here." "Why aren't you two dressed?" "Do you want to be late for your first day of art camp?" "You'll eat these in the car." "Go get dressed." "I want cereal." "Go get dressed, young lady!" " But..." " Now!" "Now!" "Go!" "Gentlemen." "Welcome to league play." "I need to see the following players." "Staff Sergeant Matthew Grenada." "And Roland Burton." " Which one of you is Grenada?" " Me, sir." "Your records state that you've been on limited duty" " since the surgery on your rotator cuff." " Yeah." "I need a medical clearance before you can play." "Yeah." "I got it, sir." "I just forgot to bring it." " All right." "Get it to me next time." " Will do." "That makes you Burton." "I need your rank, soldier." "You left it blank." " Not military." "My wife is." " Then, I'm sorry, sir." "You can't play." "But, sir, can't we make an exception?" "I mean, the man's got game." "No exceptions." "Policy." "Hey, I'm sorry, man." "We could've used you." " Yeah." "It's all right, man." "Damn it." "Okay." "Maybe." "Go!" "Go!" "Don't stop!" "Don't stop!" " Nice dive, buddy." "That's okay!" " Nice dive!" " That's all right." "I like it." "Watch the ball!" "Watch the ball!" " Get it, Finn!" "Come on, Finn!" "Nice dive." " It's all right." " So close!" "Buddy, that was so close!" " Are you all right?" "That was almost in." "Almost in." "One, two, three." "LeBlanc!" " Thanks." " Can I play?" "Sure." "Go!" "Don't stop!" "Don't stop!" "Kick it in the goal!" "Yes!" "Yes!" "Goal!" "I win!" "In your face!" "Go, go!" "Go, go, go, go, go!" " Goal!" "That's it, boys!" "Dad!" "Dad!" " Bring it in." "Bring it in." "Bring it in." " We scored four goals." " Hey!" " Yes!" " In a row." " Yay!" "Where did you learn how to play like that?" " My dad taught me." " Yeah?" "Well, I'm taking the boys out tomorrow morning to the park." "Maybe you and your dad can come along." "Teach us some of those killer moves, yeah?" " My dad can't come." " Why not?" "He's dead." "He got blown up in his Humvee." "Morning." "Class started 20 minutes ago." "Right." "Okay, you two." "Go find yourselves a seat." "Okay." "So, what are you doing here?" "I'm volunteering my time." "I like art." " With five-year-olds?" " Yeah." "Interesting." "Pammy?" "Scott?" " What are you doing here?" " Teaching." "What are you doing here?" " You two know each other?" " You could say that." "The last time I saw you, you were swinging a set of handcuffs and flashing a badge." "Yeah." "Well, the last time I saw you, you were living out of your van and selling watercolors at Faneuil Hall." "So, did you two date or..." " No." "No." "We're..." " No." "No." "No." "He was dating a friend of mine at the time." "Hillary." "Actually, we got married." "Oh, my God." "That's great." "Then we got divorced." "Oh, my God, again." "I'm sorry." "It's okay." "I got something great out of it." "His name is John." "I have him for the summers." "So what are you doing here on post?" "I moved to Charleston three years ago." "I teach at the community college." "And speaking of teaching, I hate to break up this little reunion, but, Scott, you and I have a class to teach." "Right." "I better let you two get back to work." "Yeah." "Okay." "Okay." "You guys doing okay?" "As you know, HIPPA requires we use numbers rather than names." "Also, we have opaque acronyms for their conditions, like..." "ACS, acute coronary syndrome, instead of HA or MI." "Right." "PUD, CVA, ETOH, DOOC." "Ulcer, stroke, drunk, sugar." "Per JACHO, you are required to assess patient's pain scale every two hours, in addition to BP, heart rate, BPM, temp by Celsius and pulse ox." "Any questions?" "Yes." "How do we register all these on the charts?" "Honey, there are no charts." "There haven't been charts for years." "For example, flow sheets for vitals, EKG's, med list, everything is computerized." "Now, let's get you in some greens and see what you got." "So, last night Trevor was on top of me when Finn walked in." "Oh, my God." "What did you do?" "We said we were cold." " And what did he say?" " He said it was summer." "Can you beat that?" "No." "I wish I could." "But you're talking about sex, right?" "I have vague memories of moaning and toes curling." "Your toes curl?" "I didn't say mine." "Hey, look on the bright side." "At least you're having sex." "I see your little peeping Finn has met a new friend." "Yeah." "His name's Javier." "His dad died." "I mean, how do I prepare my kids to hear things like that?" "You can try, but you really can't prepare them for something like that." "I mean, any more than you can prepare them for, you know, their first heartbreak." "You know?" "I just thought it would be fun to go back to that beautiful part of the country again." "You loved that trip to Yellowstone, Amanda." "You talked about it for years." "I had a lot of fun." "I can't go." "I have plans." "Plans?" "I'm going to visit Jeremy." "Jeremy?" " Mom didn't tell you?" " Tell me what?" "I'm still seeing him." "And you knew about this, Claudia Joy?" "I just found out." "I'm not going to Montana." "I'm going to visit Jeremy at Fort Benning." "No, you're not." "You are going with your family on a vacation." "And if you have a problem with that, young lady, you can take it to your room." "So, how the hell did you go from cop to Army wife?" "Well, you know the story." "Girl meets soldier." "Girl gets pregnant." "Soldier says we can't have both parents being shot at all the time." "So, girl becomes an Army wife." "Do you miss it?" "Yeah." "Sometimes." "But I've got two kids, so I still feel like a cop." "Angie?" "You can go home." "Oh, no." "I want to help." " You know what?" "It is very late." " Yeah." "So, I have to get going." "All right, kids." "Get your stuff." "It is time to go." "Mommy, John wants to come over for a microwave tonight." "Microwave?" "In your house, it's probably called "dinner. "" " Please!" "Please!" "Please!" "Please!" " Please!" "Please!" "Please!" "Please!" "Yes." "Yes, you can go." " You can go, John." " Yeah." "Yes, says he." "All right." "Come on, get your stuff." "Hey!" "Cops and robbers both need to watch out for cars." " Delores?" "I'm Roxy, I called earlier?" " Oh, yes." "Thank you for looking after Javier." "Would you like to come in for a cup of coffee?" " Let them tire themselves out." " I like the way you think." " You have a beautiful home." " Thank you." "Javier told me about his father." "I'm so sorry." "We knew it could happen, you know?" "We just..." "We never thought it would happen to us." " How's Javier doing?" " He's like me." "You know, he has good days and he has bad days." "I'm sorry." "Today's a really bad day." " Do you need to get that?" " No." "It's okay." "You have reached the Marinos." "Please leave a message and we'll call you back." "Mrs. Marino, this is Alvin Jennings from the housing authority again." "Your move out is two days away, so we need to set up an appointment for the walk-through as soon as possible." "Wow." "You have to move?" "Army policy." "Widows are only allowed to stay on post for six months after a spouse dies." " You're joking, right?" " I wish." "I need to get the house ready for the walk-through inspection on Thursday." "Wait, you're supposed to move out on Thursday, like in two days, Thursday?" "Honey, I know I've only known you about a minute, but you need to get going on this." "I know." "I know." "I'll get it done." "Don't worry." "Do you have anyone to help you?" "No." "Diego died shortly after we moved in, so I don't really know many people." "Well, now you know me." "So, I have to thank you for this pizza." "Because it is the first radiation-free meal we've had in weeks." "My pleasure." "You have to tell me about your brother." " Is he still certifiably insane?" " Yes." "Yep." "And he just got re-elected, so there you go." "That's funny." "So this is new." "Yeah." "It's kind of a mess." "No." "I like it." "I like it longer." "Thank you." "So, I probably shouldn't say this, but I've been carrying it around for 10 years." "What?" "Now I'm scared." "Every time we were in the same room together, my knees would shake." "But I was with Hillary and you were with Joe." "And I'm still mad at myself that I didn't have the courage to tell you." "I know..." "I know we can't go back there." "But, if I had told you how I felt," "would it have made a difference?" "Yes." "Nothing happened." "But I wanted it to." "You're allowed." "You're married, not dead." "Yeah." "I've heard that one before." "But this went into Marilyn territory." "I mean, for the first time, I understood the whole affair thing." "It's just hard, you know?" "With Chase being gone right now and I don't know when the hell he's coming back." "So, what is it about this guy?" "I just keep thinking about his question." "If he had told me how he felt back then," "I would be a cop living in Boston married to an art teacher right now." "Would we still have met somewhere in there?" "Oh, honey." "Yes." "You and me?" "We're destined to be together." "The scary thing is he still gets to me, you know?" "I was this close to kissing him." "I'm guessing you're telling me all this because you want me to talk you out of it." "The premise of your book seems to be that science and spirituality are not mutually exclusive." "Exactly." "I found that patients with a firm belief system, whatever that may be, recover better from trauma than those without one." "We want to believe we're connected to something greater." "But you'll make that sound better, for the article, right?" " Of course." " Thanks." "My wife says I come off sounding like Shirley MacLaine when I talk about my book." "Don't worry." "Your voice is much deeper." "You know, my wife's a lieutenant colonel." "She is the highest ranking African-American female on this post." "I did know that." "That's very impressive." "But... we're here to talk about you." "So tell me, your father passed away when he was only 36 years old." "Did that impact your decision to become a psychiatrist?" "I see you've done your homework." "Yes, I guess it did." "His death came out of nowhere." "There's no history of cancer in our family." "My mother fell apart." "I felt helpless to do anything." "So, yes." "Now I find it fulfilling to help other people make it through." "And who helps you make it through?" "Amanda." "Am I interrupting anything?" "Oh, just me avoiding my life." "And the third shelf of the refrigerator." "Come on in." "Is Major Sherwood here?" "Oh, no." "He's in Washington, DC." "More follow-up on the helicopter crash." "I just..." "I wanted to see how you were." "Since Jeremy left on the bus." "Well, I'm all right." "So, you're okay?" "Yeah." "Thank you." "How are you?" "I'm okay." "I'll go now." "Oh, honey." "What's wrong?" "I just never thought I would miss him so much." "It's awful." "Come here." "Hey." "You guys, why didn't you meet me out front like I asked?" "Okay, forget it." "Just get your stuff and meet me at the car." "Fast." "Quick." "Hey." "Hey." "I'm sorry." "I don't mean to be rude." "I'm just in a hurry." "Oh, well, wait." "Just hold up one second." "I shouldn't have said anything." "It was a long time ago." "I'm sorry." "No." "It's okay." "It's forgotten." "Okay, so listen." "Here's an idea that I think you're gonna like." "John's begging me to have Katie and Lucas over for dinner tonight." "I can't." "I'm busy." "Oh." "No, not you." "I'm gonna take care of the kids." " And we're gonna have a sleepover." " Okay." "That is very sweet, but completely unnecessary." "No, really." "It's fine." "Enjoy your freedom." " Really?" " Really." "Okay." "Okay, then." "Thank you." "A lot." "You okay there?" "Yeah." "I can't believe I've been here all day." "You rule the school, Denise." "Rule the school?" "It's funny you should say that because yesterday I completely embarrassed myself trying to go back to school." " What do you mean?" " Well, I tried to go back to nursing." "I was almost an RN when I quit the program to marry Frank." "With Jeremy gone, I thought I'd go back to work." "Finish what I started." "But when I got there, I just felt completely lost." " So you quit again?" " Ouch." "I hadn't thought of it that way, but, yeah, I guess I did." "My mom told me how you delivered that lady's twins on a pool table." "That sounds more than nurse-like to me." " How did you do that?" " I just did it without thinking." "Maybe you should stop thinking." "This has been great." "I have so much to draw from." "Thank you for giving me the extra time." "Of course." "I'm tired of hearing the sound of my own voice." "Tell me about you." "What's your story?" "Well, my husband is a war correspondent." " He's overseas..." " Hey, hey, hey now." "We're talking about you, not your husband." "Touché." " Well, what do you want to know?" " What do you want to tell me?" "Why do you answer every question with a question?" " I'm a psychiatrist." " I'm a journalist." "Then we're gonna have a problem here." "I guess it's safe to say both of us would rather be asking the questions." "Yeah, why do you think that is?" "We'd rather focus on someone else than ourselves." "Why is that?" "We're afraid of what we'll see." " Are you?" " Are you?" "Are you gonna bill me for this?" "Colonel Holden's residence." "It's me, Mom." "Where are you?" "I'm at Mrs. Sherwood's house." " You're at Denise's house?" " Yeah." "We've been talking all day." "Look." "First I want to apologize for getting so upset." "And I've been thinking." "I really want you guys to go on vacation." "So I asked Mrs. Sherwood if I could stay with her for the week, while you're in Montana and she said yes." "Okay." "Well, let me think about that." "Could you have Denise call me in the morning?" "Okay." " I love you." " I love you, too." "Pull up right here, sir." "Thank you again." "I really enjoyed meeting you." "I wish I could." "But I can't." "Well, I guess it's a good thing I'm going back to New York tomorrow." "That's very nice of you, Denise." "That's very nice of you, Denise." "But lately, a week with Amanda is a very long time." "Yeah, well, the offer still stands." "She is a really great girl." "Thank you." "I have to admit I was a bit jealous that she turned to you, instead of me." "Jealous of me?" "Oh, come on." "You remember what it was like at that age." "Your mother's an idiot." "Everyone else walks on water." "Did she say I was an idiot?" "Well, not in so many words." "But, yeah, the water was a little shallow." "Oh, my God." "Can you believe we have kids 18?" "I still feel like I'm 18 myself." "And then I look in the mirror and it's not my friend." "Yeah, I know what you mean." "Oh, God." " Listen to this." " What?" "Okay." "When I was 18, I used to steal my parents' car," " go down to this nightclub in the city." " You did?" "It was wild." "Everything was going on." "I loved every minute." "To this day, they have no idea." "Okay." "Wow." "Well, I don't have a criminal past." "Oh, excuse me." "But you know what?" "We turned out okay." "Sort of." " Yeah." " We just have to trust our kids will, too." " Can you grab that?" " Here you go." "Colonel Holden's residence." "Hi, Roxy." "Of course." "No." "I'll be right over." "Okay." " Mrs. Holden." "I'm glad you're here." " Good morning, Captain Jolivette." " Mrs. Holden is with the FRG." " Hi." "This is Roxy LeBlanc." "What can we do?" "Mr. Jennings needs to get into the house to do a walk-through inspection." "Mrs. Marino refuses to open the door." "Now we have a key and we can just let ourselves in." " But none of us want it to come to that." " Neither do we." " We'll talk to her, okay?" "Thank you." " Okay." "Delores?" "Delores, it's Roxy." "Delores, this is Claudia Joy Holden." "I called her because I thought she could help." "Hi, Delores." "It's nice to meet you." "I was hoping..." "I'm sorry, Mrs. Holden, but I won't let them in my house." "Once I let them in, that's it." "It's over for me." "They're not coming in." "We're just gonna talk." "Okay?" "Why don't we all sit down?" "Now, why don't you tell me what I can do?" "Make them let me stay." "I can ask them to extend your stay, but we both know it will only be temporary." " How temporary?" " A month, maybe two." "So why don't you let the FRG help you?" "We can find you a place to live." "Near a good school for your children." "It can be right here in Charleston, if that's where you want to live." "No." "I need to stay in this house." "I know it must feel like leaving here means leaving him behind." "And you're not ready for that." "No." "I'm not." "Okay." "Let me talk to you about your son." "About Javier." "Roxy told me about him." "What a great kid he is." "He only has you now." "I'm trying to be strong for him." "Really, I am." "I just don't have it in me anymore." "You do." " I know you do." " I know, too." "I see it just looking around the room." "You need to move on to a new life for him." "We'll be with you every step of the way." "This can't be good." "Michael." "Have you talked to Amanda about Jeremy?" "Yes." "But, Michael, we can't protect her forever." "At some point, we have to trust her judgment." "That's not gonna be the easiest thing to do." "But I'll try." "And the vacation?" "She's not going." "She wants to stay with Denise, but I can't let her do that." "So I'm gonna stay behind with her." " No." "No, we're a family." " We're always a family." "But our kids are growing up." " Claudia Joy, this is important to me." " I know it is." "Being here with Amanda is important to me, too." "You have to let me win this one." "I'm so sorry to wake you." "She said her tummy hurt." "I think she just missed her mom." "Oh, poor thing." "Here, I'll take her." "No, I got her." " You sure?" " Yeah." "Don't worry about Lucas, he's fine." "My sister's with them." "There you go." "This teddy bear will protect you in your sleep." "And this dolphin will protect your mommy and daddy and Lucas." "She's out cold." "I guess I should go." "No." "You don't have to." "Oh, God." "What am I doing?" "I'm sorry." "This is all my fault." "No." "No." "I wanted to." "I still want to." "It's just all of a sudden you're here and I feel completely thrown." "But I can't do this." "As much as I want to." "I can't." "Who would have thought that I would be the good girl?" "I did." "Sorry." "I'll just wrap this." "Okay." "Hey, Roland." "That's the second time." "What gives?" "Nothing." "Sorry." "I just got a lot on my mind." "Is he okay?" "You have some really great stuff." " Very eclectic taste." " Thank you." " I go to garage sales." " I hear you." " My favorite designer is the Goodwill." " There you go." "What am I gonna do with all that stuff?" "I can't afford another truck." "Should I just leave it out here?" "Take it from me." "You don't want to leave it on the lawn." " That'd be a hell of a chit." "Yeah." "Wait, hold on." "You know, we need some furniture." "Are you open for business?" " Please." "You don't have to do that." " No." "I'm serious." "We need furniture." " I wasn't gonna take my dining set." " Sold." "Hey, what about that lamp?" "Would you take 50 bucks for it?" "That lamp would be $200 in Charleston." "Come on." "Step off, lady." "That's right, Delores." "Don't let her rip you off." " Hey, how much for the red chair?" " For the red chair." "I don't know." "How much does it cost in Charleston?" "Now, the boys wanted you to have that." "Thanks!" "Thank you, Finn." "I'll make sure everything else gets to a good home." "Thank you." "All of you." "For all that you've done for me, okay?" "Bye." "Of course." "Emmalin, you got everything?" "Yep." "All set." "Have a great time, sweetheart." " It's not New York, but I'll do my best." " I know." " Bye, Mom." " Bye." " I'll call you when we get in." " Okay." "I love you." "I love you, too." "See you." "Dad!" "Do I get a hug?" "Okay." "But this isn't over." "I didn't think so." " I love you." " I love you, too." "Trevor?" "Trevor?" "Did you get the results?" "Well?" "Well..." "No surgery?" "No surgery." "Turns out I'm not gonna be needing these anymore either." "Yay!" "Just two more weeks of physical therapy and I can start training again." "Baby." "I am happy for you, Trevor." "I really am." "Roxy, I promise you I'm gonna be fine." " So, where are the kids?" " Out." "Out?" "Joan?" "How are you?" "I miss you, too." "I'm doing fine." "Yeah." "It'll be great to see you again." "Well, you still have me." "Coming through."
