Army Wives (2007–2013): Season 4, Episode 16 - Mud, Sweat & Tears - full transcript

In Afghanistan, Jeremy is wounded and traumatized, but learns nurse Tanya Gabriel only pretended to be engaged to avoid admitting she started caring too much for him. Chase's patience with Pamela's absurd demands as if they were still together runs out. Pregnant Denise's two sisters Beth and Suzanne came to help her during pregnancy, but their sibling rivalry upsets the dynamics in the girls charity run team, which has to recruit both to replace Clausia Joy, who must receive the vice president's wife, and Emmalin, who gets a single chance to impress a talent scout.

Previously on "army wives"...

Take guys like you. You mean
idiots like me and Giron?

You're goofing off playing
football one day,

And you're on my table the next.

I can't be seeing you. We're
the same rank. It's okay.

That's not what I'm talking about.
Then what?

I'm engaged, Jeremy.

I have a fiancé back home.

Well, listen, my deal is,

I have to walk out
of here with a date.



So how about we slip away,
find some pizza and beer,

Solve both our problems?

No, Chase.

We can't do this.

You're returning to duty?

Restricted duty.

Rear detachment command.

That's fantastic.

Hey, dad, guess what? I'm going
to woodsen to play hockey.

She was amazing, sweetheart.
You would've been so proud.

Oh, we miss you. Hurry home.

I love you. Be safe.

She's coming. Really?

That was the white house.



Dr. Biden has agreed to be

Our kickoff speaker
for the fun run.

That is fantastic.

The second lady is coming here.

Yes. You know how hard
she's been working

On military issues,

Traveling to different
bases around the country.

I wanted her to see fort Marshall.
Congratulations.

Thank you. It's gonna be
so good for our post,

For military
families everywhere.

Oh, I know.

Gorgeous flowers.

For your sisters' visit?

Yep. Should be here any minute.

I still can't believe
they're coming.

You invited them, right?

Uh... Not exactly.

Suzanne called the other day

And announced that
she was coming.

Typical older sister...

She didn't ask,
she just told me.

And an hour later,
Beth was on the phone,

Asking why she
wasn't invited, too.

Ah, it's understandable.
She's the youngest.

Yeah, never wants to be left out.
What could I do?

I think it's sweet. They
want to take care of you.

Ha ha. You don't
seem very excited.

You don't know my sisters.
I've met them.

Not together.

Oh, God.

Denise! Denise!

Wow. Why didn't I ever
look that good pregnant?

Because you don't do yoga
like Denise and I do.

You look gorgeous.

Thank you. Um, you
remember Claudia joy.

Oh, of course. Hi.

Hi. Good to see you again. Same here.
I can't believe it.

The last time you were pregnant,
I was in High School.

Don't remind me. What
a cute little house.

It's not so little.

Remember that shack we
lived in at fort bliss?

Oh, I try not to.

Well, I'm afraid, uh,

We converted Jeremy's
room to the nursery.

But the sofa is a pullout, and
one of you can share my bed.

Oh, honey, don't worry.
Beth can take the couch.

I booked a room at the
mills house in town

So we wouldn't crowd you.

So where's the nursery? I'd love to see it.
Uh, down the hall.

Ah. Do you believe it?

I thought this was supposed to
be a family gathering but, no.

Suzanne has to go to some
hotel with fancy sheets

And room service. Oh, you know Suzanne.
She likes things a certain way.

Yeah, her way.

Oh, it's so adorable!
I want to see, too.

Why do I feel like I'm
12 years old again?

Oh. Good luck.

Thank you.

Mwah. I'll need it.

Oh, call me.

Yeah.

Bye.

Bye.

Okay. Okay, hold on.

Hold on.

I still can't believe it...

Jill biden coming
here to our fun run?

I know.

I hope she's giving
trophies at the end...

'cause I want pictures.

Hey. We gotta win
our group first.

Are you kidding?

We're gonna crush the competition.
Roxy.

No prisoners!

Relax, would ya?
I'm just excited.

I'm excited this
thing is gonna send

Military kids to summer camp.
Yeah, including ours.

That's what I'm talking about.
Nice.

Here come the jarads.
Hey, Rox Oh, boy.

Stand by, ladies.

Hey, Joyce. I didn't know the
marines got up this early.

I'm actually glad we
ran into you, Roxy,

So you can see the
front of our shirts,

'cause on race day, you're only
gonna see our backs. Really?

Well, you haven't seen the
rest of our team yet,

'cause we are gonna
whup all y'alls butts.

You wanna bet?

Hell, yeah, we wanna bet.

So if we beat them, they
have to buy us a round,

Wear army tees and
sing "the armyong."

Yeah, but if Ty beat us,

We have to sing
"thearine corps hymn"

For them. Yeah, but that's
not gonna happen...

because of our secret weapon.

Uh... About that...

Malin spoke with
her hockey coach

Just before you got here.

I mentioned the fun n,
and he said, "no way."

What?

He doesn't allow his players

To take unnecessary
risks off the ice.

He doesn't allow his players
wh-what risks? Roxy,

it's a... it's an obstacle
course through the woods.

So? You walk out on the stet,
you can get hit by a bus.

Emmalin, he cannot do this.
Yclaudia joy, come on.

There's gotta be something you can do here.
Let go, Rox.

This team captain thing's
making her a little nuts. I'.

Emmalin, he cannot do this.
Yclaudia joy, come on.

It's not your fault. You
tried to help us out.

I was just counting on
you to be our ringer.

I was, too.

Okay, so Denise signed us up
for the all-women division.

We need to find a fourth woman.

Right. Who?

We can't think of
a better person

To beat the pants
off the marines.

Oh, and it's for a
great cause, too.

Oh, I wish I could,
Roxy, but my doctors

Still haven't cleared me
for heavy exercise yet.

Oh, m sorry. I-I didn't know.

Oh, it's okay.

It's a long road back,
but I'm better.

Anyway, I've agreed to be
an official for the race.

Oh, great. Well, we'll
see you there, then.

Mm-hmm. I'd ask Roland, but I
think his schedule's full.

Oh, it's okay. We're entered
in the women's-only division.

Oh. Do you think I
could disguise him,

Like in a wig or something?

Roland in a wig?

Forget it.

Good luck.

Right.

Sisterhood is powerful.

How much longer?

Any second.

My lips are killing me.

Ooh. Ahh.

Ooh. No good. I look fat. Oh.

Let me see. No one can
look fat next to me.

Oh, it's fine.

Mom's always asking for
a good picture of us.

Let's just e-mail
it to her and dad.

Oh, forget that. We'll have
to print it and send it

snail mail. I thought you
bought them a computer.

She did. And lessons.

I think dad threw the guy out.
You know dad.

If the army didn't issue
it, he has no use for it.

And mom thinks a cursor
is someone who swears.

They get by.

If you visited more often,
Suzanne, you'd see for yourself.

Yes, well, some of us have
children to look after, Beth.

Don't you mean some of us have children
and husbands? Oh, for pity's sake.

I wasn't commenting on your
marital status. Really?

All right, come on, guys. Why does she
always have to bring up my divorce?

Did you hear me mention her divorce? You
know what? I think we're all hungry.

Let's get something to eat,
and we'll feel better, okay?

Great. I got this. He...
I got it. I got it.

I know you're supposed
to use your feet,

But I'm no good at this.

All right. Take it easy, bud.

So, Sherwood, what's happening
with you and that medic babe...

Specialist Gabriel?

It's Gabriel, and, uh, it's
none of your business.

Oh, a little touchy, aren't we?

The last time I saw you two,
it was all lovey-dovey.

She has a fiancé.

What?

Back at home.

She was playing you?

Looks that way. That's harsh.

Eagle three, this is eagle six.
Come in. Over.

Eagle three, this is eagle six.
Come in. Over.

Eagle six, this is eagle three.
Over.

Eagle three, video from u.A.V.

Picked up a white pickup
truck headed your way.

Intel suggests possible threat.

May have explosives on board.
Over.

Roger that, eagle six.

White pickup, possible threat,
may have explosives. Over.

Use extreme force if necessary.

All right, listen up.

Watch the road.

White truck,
possible explosives.

Target straight ahead!

Everybody okay? Riggs?

Roger, sergeant. Sherwood?

Sherwood?

I'm good, sergeant.

Sherwood, you've been hit.

Hell of an explosion.

We felt it back here.
Hell of an explosion.

Sherwood.

I'm fine.

Wh...

Take care of him. He
needs it more than I do.

Mmm. This gumbo is
out of this world.

Glad you like it. Fantastic.

Best in all of Charleston. Oh,
it's so nice you could visit.

Denise talks about
you all the time.

Oh. Really? Which one of us?

Oh, both of you.

Let's see. Uh, Suzanne...

Uh, you live in...

Richmond. Richmond, yeah,

And you are married to the...

the banker. Banker.
Oh, oh, yeah, right.

With... with horses.
And two children.

Yes. And, Beth...

Pittsburgh. No horses,
no kids, no husband.

Uh, what kind of work do you do?

I'm an event planner.

What happened to real estate?

I'm on a new career path.

Again?

So, um, how is the
fun run shaping up?

Uh, not good.

Emmalin's hockey coach
won't let her do it.

So now we are scrambling
to find a replacement.

What's the fun run? Uh, it's a footrace
combined with an obstacle course,

4-man teams...

To raise money to
send kids to camp.

Sounds like fun.

That is what Denise said when
she signed us up months ago.

And now look at her.

So if we don't find a fourth,
then we have to drop out,

Which means losing to
this marine corps team,

Which is driving me crazy.

Heck, I'll do it. Really?

Yeah, sure. I bike, run, hike.

Oh, that's fantastic. I was
about to say, I could do it.

With your bad ankle?

Oh, she was thrown from a horse.

I wasn't thrown. It
was a rough dismount.

My ankle's fine now.

Still, at your age, it
takes longer to recover.

I'd be happy to do it.

I thought we came here for Denise.
You know what? It's all right.

I'm working the event anyway,
so we'll all be there,

And you can help me
at the aid station.

Super.

Okay. So...

Beth, uh, I have a form
for you in my office.

Let's get you signed up.

Works for me.

Me, too. You saved our butts.

Notice how she never misses
a chance to put me down?

Suzanne... you heard her.
"at your age"?

Please. I think my 10k time
is still better than hers.

She used to hate
being the youngest.

Now she rubs my nose in
it whenever she can.

You have to cut her some slack.

Beth doesn't have much going on right now.
And that's my fault?

No, of course not. And I love that
martyr act about mom and dad.

I mean, unlike Beth,

I can't just drop
everything to go visit.

I mean, honestly, I don't think

Mom and dad need all that attention
she gives them. Come on. Relax.

Let Beth enjoy the fun run.

You and I will have our own
fun on the sidelines, okay?

I suppose.

I found these all over
the site, general.

Remnants of detonator
and trip wire, too.

I.E.D. Components.

Truck must've been full of 'em.

Yeah, it blew up when our
patrol fired on 'em.

Everyone in the truck
was killed instantly...

Three insurgents.

You keep me posted.

Yes, sir.

I want a report on
civilian causalities.

When it's appropriate, I
want to visit the family

That lost a father and son.

Yes, sir.

Sergeant Leblanc.

Yes, general. I want to
commend you and your team

On your swift action today.
Just doing our job, sir.

Actually, it was
specialist Sherwood

Who fired the decisive shot.
Where is Sherwood?

He's at the aid station, sir.
He's okay.

He just took some
shrapnel to the shoulder.

Jeremy.

Hey, dad.

Hey.

I'm fine. I'm fine.

Just a few stitches, that's all.

Well, keep it clean, huh?
All right.

Hey, sergeant Leblanc tells me

You took out that
hot target today.

He's putting you in
for a commendation.

You okay?

Yeah.

Come on. It's your old
man you're talking to.

The, uh...

The bomb blast, it
killed some civilians...

A father and son.

I saw them, dad.

It's not your fault.

I just keep seeing 'em.

Well, it's hard to get rid
of those images. I know.

But if you hadn't
have done your job,

There'd have been a lot more
bodies out there today. I know.

You want to get a
coffee, talk it out?

Nah, thanks. Dr. Burton
and I worked out my plan.

I'm gonna get to a session.

I mean, I appreciate the offer, but...
no, no, no. It's okay.

I just want to make
sure you're, you know,

Taking care of things.

Thanks, dad.

Of course.

I can imagine

How difficult this is for
you, coming to see me.

Look, all of your training
has been to make you tough,

Self-sufficient,

Shut down any feelings that get
in the way of the mission.

And therapy is the opposite.

Here the goal is to get in
touch with your emotions,

Let your feelings lead.

I get that, but I'm not
here for therapy, doc.

You're not?

Just looking for a
little advice is all.

But now that I'm here, I'm
thinking, this is a mistake.

Why is that?

Uh, I'm not into head shrinking.
No offense.

Besides, you're friends
with my wife...

My ex-wife. Look,
I can assure you

That whatever is said
here stays between us.

What kind of advice are you looking for?
I don't know. I should go.

Hey, Chase, whatever you
want to call this...

Therapy, advice... it
doesn't matter to me.

But something brought you
here, and maybe I can help.

So what's on your mind?

I don't know.

Uh, it feels like I'm
stuck or something.

I just want to move on.

From your marriage?

A lot of people

Have difficulty getting
back into the dating game

After a long marriage. Well, how
about after a good marriage?

You sound angry.

I'm not angry.

Confused, maybe.

Confused?

Look, I was a good
husband, A good father.

I was faithful. I provided.

Okay. So what was the problem?

Exactly. Pamela wasn't happy.

She wanted me to leave delta.
And that makes you angry?

I told you, I am not angry.
You're not?

Well, wouldn't you be?

We're not talking about me.

Will you be going back to
work after Molly comes?

Of course she won't.

Kids do best when there's
a parent at home,

And that can't be Frank.

So that's it?

Frank gets his career,
and Denise gets nothing?

Well, she can go
back to work later.

But she struggled to find something she
likes. And now she's having a child.

Who will benefit from a
strong female role model.

Are you saying that
stay-at-home moms

Aren't strong role models, Beth?

Excuse me.

Hello. Denise.

I have a problem.
What's going on?

Dr. Biden wants to visit more
locales on post tomorrow,

And I'd love to escort her,

But that means I'd have
to drop out of the fun

run. Well, you have to go with Dr.
Biden.

It's an honor for
you and the post.

I know, I know,

But I don't want to disappoint
Roxy and Pamela either.

We all know how hard
your life is, Beth,

But this isn't about you.

Okay? It's about Denise.

I have an idea.

Dr. Biden, we're so honored

You're taking the time
to meet some of our blue

star wives. The honor's
mine, Claudia joy.

I understand your husbands
are all deployed.

And my son, too.

I know what that's like. My
son served a tour in Iraq.

Mm. And you're having a
new addition, I see.

Yes, ma'am.

One of the things I value most
about my role as second lady

Is the opportunity to visit
with military families.

I'm here to listen to
what's ever on your mind.

I want this to be an
open conversation.

And I hope you'll
feel comfortable

Sharing your stories...

The good ones and the
challenging ones.

Well, this isn't like me, Dr.
Biden,

But for once in my
life, I am speechless.

I think we all are.

I'll get the ball rolling.

Uh... We all know

How much stress our
soldiers endure,

But I think it's safe to say

That it's a big problem
for the families, too.

When to tell our kids
about deployment

And what to tell them.

And there's the stress
when they're gone,

Worrying about them every day.

I know that feeling.
The important thing

Is to realize, you're not alone.

And when you need help, say so.
What else?

My biggest challenge is
taking care of the kids.

Between carpool,
soccer, dance lessons,

Uh, it really is a 2-person job.

I hear that from military
spouses all the time.

Parenting is hard enough when
both parents are around,

Which is why I'm so glad

You have this great support
network here at fort Marshall.

Well, that's because of Claudia joy.
mm-hmm.

Well, it's because
we have each other.

That's nice to hear. We all
have to rely on each other.

Does anyone else have
anything they'd like to add?

♪ I like the way ♪

♪ you're not afraid ♪

♪ you've got the world planned ♪

♪ in your mind ♪

♪ people say ♪

♪ you cannot do it ♪

♪ but they don't know ♪

♪ a friend like you ♪

Oh, I hate to bring
this to a close,

But I need to get Dr. Biden
to the start of our fun run.

It's been my pleasure.

Let me just say that the
white house appreciates

All that you and your families
do every day for our country.

On behalf of the
president, the first lady,

The vice president and
myself, thank you.

Okay. Sure.

Yeah.

Good afternoon,

And welcome to our inaugural
fort Marshall fun run.

I'm Claudia joy holden,

Head of the family
readiness group

At fort Marshall,

And it is my great honor
to introduce to you

The wife of our vice president,
and a military mother herself,

Dr. Jill biden.

Thank you.

I'm proud to be here today
as the second lady,

But I'm even more proud to
be here as a military mom.

I have traveled to
many military bases

And met countless soldiers
and their families,

And I have been
truly overwhelmed

By the courage of our men
and women in uniform

And inspired by the patriotism
and pride of their families.

As many of you know,

The first lady and I
have been working

To raise awareness of the
service and sacrifices

Of our men and women in
uniform and their families.

Our goal is to help forge

An enduring national
commitment to supporting them.

This includes building
stronger ties

Between our civilian and
military communities.

Although only 1% of Americans
are fighting our wars today,

We need 100% of Americans

To support them and
their families.

By being here, You are
doing exactly that,

And I thank you.

Now... Who's ready
for the fun run?

Okay, runners.

Take your places.

Good luck.

You, too.

They're gonna need it.

Ready. Set.

Looks doable. Definitely.

Ready?

Wow. Look at 'em go.

Man, did we luck out or what?

Welcome to your
orienteering challenge.

From here, you are required
to follow this map

Using nothing more
than this compass

And your own common sense

To get to this clearing.

It is distinguished
by an old water well.

Now the race official there
must validate your map

Before moving on
to the next event.

Clear? Yeah, yeah.

Yes, yes. Oh.

Uh, actually, I'm a girl
scout leader back home.

Yeah, but Pamela's a cop.
No, Roxy. It's okay.

Really, Suzanne? You
get lost at the mall.

Oh, come on. That happened once.

Okay, let's just go. Come on.
We're wasting time.

It's that way. That way.
Let's go.

Which way? Um... Uh, right.

No. Left. You're wrong.

What? See? They're going left.
it doesn't matter.

Different teams have
different checkpoints.

I say we go right. Pamela?

A team can only have
one leader at a time.

We gave Suzanne the map. She should lead.
Thank you.

I don't recall voting on that. Oh, God!
Just make a decision. Let's go.

Come on. Left.

Okay. Left.

Come on.

That doesn't look
like a water well.

It should be here.

Well, maybe if we'd gone right
instead of left, it would be.

Maybe there's a problem with the map.
Yeah, it has a faulty map reader.

Can it, you two.
Somebody screwed up.

So we gotta retrace our steps

And get back to the fork
in the trail right now.

If we hustle, we can
make up for lost time,

Find the well, and then run
like hell to the next stop...

The challenge wall.
Challenge wall?

Uh, we have to get over that?

Where's the ladder?

I guess that's the challenge.

Exactly right.

The idea is for all four of you
to get over it any way you can.

Okay, well, let's do this.

Roxy, you okay?

Yeah, that's not gonna work.

Look, we can only
do this as a team.

Suzanne, give me a boost. Well,
why don't you give me a boost?

I'm lighter. Well, I'm stronger.

That's why you should
give me the boost. The

stronger one needs to
get to the top first

To help the others get up there.

It's not just about strength. It takes
agility, too. What's your point?

Hello? Yoga. I'm much more flexible...
hey! It worked.

Okay. Anytime, ladies. Come on.
Give me a boost.

Oh. Here.

And...

Me next. Would it
kill you to go last?

Quit arguing. Beth, you're next.

You're punishing me for
going left, aren't ya?

Yeah, we are. Can
you just do it?

Yeah.

Gosh. All right. You ready?

Okay. Haul ass, Suzanne.

All right.

And...

Move it. I'm going. I'm going.

Come on, Beth. We're
falling behind.

Oh, this is not easy.

Quiet, I'm concentrating.

Oh, for Pete's sake. You
know how to walk, don't you?

Just put one foot
ahead of the other.

What are you doing? Get going.
Back off, Suzanne.

You know how to back off, don't you?
You just...

Quit yapping and just
cross the damn log!

Tell her. You're still yapping.

Aah! Oh!

Oh, bravo. Now we gotta start
all over again. Come on.

It's your fault! Oh, my fault? I'm
not the one who fell off the log.

Yeah?

I can't believe you did that!

Oh, would you shut up?!

Get up! You are wasting time.
Come on.

What's taking 'em so long?

The marine wives came
through 15 minutes ago.

Let's go.

What the...

Ah. Well, there's no
point in moving on

Until your sisters work out

Whatever the hell
is wrong with them.

Why? What happened now?
Ask them.

She started it.

Me?

Okay, stop. I've had it.

I cannot believe you two.

You can't even have
fun at a fun run.

It wasn't my fault. I don't
care whose fault it was.

I am sick and tired
of playing referee.

"Beth said this."
"Suzanne did that."

Do you know how
embarrassing it is

To watch the two of
you behave like this?

When are you gonna grow up?

You said you came
to keep me company,

To help me through my
pregnancy, but all you've done

Is make me miserable since
the minute you got here.

And... and now you've ruined
this race for my friends,

Who are more like sisters
to me than you ever were.

Denise.

It's true. Just go home.

Let her go.

Where's the next station?

What does it matter?

We told her we'd do this.

So let's do this.

For Denise.

Sorry.

Okay. This way.

Shooting insurgents,
that's my job.

But those civilians...

I know I didn't kill
them, but they dieds...

Because of what I did.

And it's hard getting those
images out of my head.

A father and son... I think
of my mom, you know?

How would she feel if that
happened to our family?

Talking about it is
the best way to heal.

I know, and I'm working on it.

But I could still feel a bit
of, uh, pull, you know,

From that negative feeling
that I had before.

And I know what I need to do.

I have to admit it
and not fight it.

I have to admit what I'm
feeling and deal with it,

Which is why I'm here.

Hey, Sherwood. Got a minute?

What for?

What you said in group...

You were very honest.

And I haven't been.

I don't have a fiancé back home.

I don't have a boyfriend either.

There's no one.

I don't get it.

Well, it was easier than
telling you the truth.

Which is?

I'm a short-timer.

I rotate home in three weeks.

Okay. S-so?

I have a green to gold
scholarship, Jeremy.

I'm going home to finish
out my undergrad degree,

Then I'm heading
straight to med school,

All on the army's dime.

I still don't get what
that has to do with me.

The last thing I need
is a relationship.

I promised myself

I wouldn't get involved
with anyone over here.

And then I met you, and...

And then there were those
casualties the other day,

And I thought it
could be you, and...

I'm not getting involved
with a soldier.

I hear that.

But just tell me that you don't
have any feelings for me.

It doesn't matter what I feel.

There's no future for us, Jeremy.
I'm sorry.

Hey, Roxy, look! The marines
are barely ahead of us.

Son of a gun.

Maybe they have a
pair of sisters, too.

Very funny. We can
still beat 'em.

Double time!

God! You okay, Suzanne?

Yeah, yeah.

Oh, no.

Oh, God. I think it
might be sprained.

Your bad ankle? Oh, my God.
You are kidding me.

I think you're right. I don't
heal as fast as I used to.

You guys should go without me.

It's tempting, but we have to
finish as a 4-person team.

Oh, there must be some
exception for injuries.

Oh, we are so close. There'so
gotta be something we can do.

What? We can't carry her.

Oh, gosh.

Hey! I know.

Beth, give me your sweatshirt.
Suzanne, you, too. what?

Come on. No woman
left behind, right?

And here come

The marine corps' entry...
the leatherneck ladies!

Whoo-hoo! We beat army!

Hey, look. Someone's hurt.

Here comes the army...
Roxy's rangers!

Um, you guys, stop, please.

I-I want to cross
the finish line

On my own two feet.

Or at least on one foot.

I'll help you, Suzanne.
Grab hold of me.

Okay. I got you.

Hey.

Congratulations, guys.
We made it.

Damn right.

Hey, where's Denise?

Enter.

Preliminary report on
yesterday's action, sir.

Thank you. Glad to
hear your son's okay.

Oh, thank you, sir.

Intel suggests the insurgents
wanted to counteract

The progress we've
made in that village.

But the villagers
are still with us?

Despite their losses, they are.

We need to build that kind of support
all over. Have something in mind, sir?

I do.

The army has had trouble

Making inroads with
the tribal leaders

At the eastern end
of the province.

I want to see those
villages myself,

Meet the leaders face-to-face.

That region's still
considered unstable, sir.

I met that afghan
family an hour ago,

The one that lost a father and
son in yesterday's action.

Despite their grief, they
thanked me for coming.

And it reminded me that,
in winning this battle,

There is nothing more
important than human contact.

Yes, sir. Set it up.

Will do, sir.

Thank you.

Hey, guys.

Hey, mom. Hey.

Uh, everything go okay?

Yeah. Uh, they both still
have homework to do.

Oh, well, hop to it,

Because I'm taking you guys
to the Leblancs' later.

We're going to t.J. And Finn's? Yeah,
emmalin's gonna watch you guys

While mommy and Mrs. Leblanc

Have a little fun run celebration.
Cool. Bye, dad.

Bye. Okay, bye.

I'll see you next weekend, okay?

Okay.

Okay.

I drop them off, and you're
leaving 'em with a babysitter?

Yeah, well, the kids
will get to hang out,

And it's all set with Roxy.
But thank you so much

For taking them today. Well, why
wouldn't I? I'm their father.

I know, but it wasn't your day.

You did me a favor, and I appreciate it. I
don't understand why you got a babysitter.

I coulda kept 'em tonight. Yeah. I
didn't want to inconvenience you.

Why would it inconvenience me? Listen,
it was just a last-minute thing.

Um, but I don't know
what your deal is,

But if you want, I can take
the kids next Saturday.

There's this carnival, and I thought...
no, I don't want that.

I already have plans with
the kids next weekend.

Okay, well, I was
just thinking that...

It's not always about what you
want, Pamela. I never said it was.

The hell you didn't. Chase, calm down.
I was just...

No, I'm not gonna calm down, okay?
Listen, I was...

What? What's with you?

What is with me is that

I don't have to do things
your way anymore. My way?

I don't care what you want.
I don't care. I... what?

The kids are with
me next weekend.

Hey, babe.

You need me to pick anything up?

All right. I'll
see you in a bit.

Chase.

Hey. I normally don't see
patients after hours.

That advice you gave me?
Looking at my feelings?

Didn't work out so well.

Why? What happened?

I don't know. I just
lost it with Pamela.

I don't even know what I
said, but it wasn't good.

I keep running through
things in my head...

The divorce, the
house, the kids...

And I get more and more pissed
off about what she did.

Well, what did she do?

What did he do?

She ruined our life together,
ruined our family.

Hey, can we talk about
this at our next session,

Give it the time it deserves? There's not
gonna be another "next session," man.

That's my point. All this
does is make me angrier.

Maybe that's a sign of progress.
Oh, yeah?

Yeah, Chase. Look, this is
all new territory for you.

There's nothing
easy about therapy.

You need to take a look

At where that anger is
really coming from.

What is that supposed to mean?

All right.

Have you ever
considered that maybe

One of the reasons you're
so angry with Pamela

Is that you're angry
with yourself?

That's crap.

Maybe some of the
choices you made

Helped to end the marriage.

Have you thought about it that way?
I knew it. You're taking her side.

No, this is not about sides. It is
about sides. This was a big mistake.

Look, chase... sorry to bother you, doc.
Won't happen again.

This is all my fault.

I shouldn't have invited myself
when I heard Suzanne was coming.

No, it's my fault
for telling you.

I think I wanted you
to feel left out.

Aren't you tired of making
each other feel bad?

It's been going on so long,
we quit thinking about it.

Until you said we weren't
like sisters to you.

I didn't mean to be so hurtful.
I was just...

You don't have to say anything.

I just want us to
enjoy being together.

There always so much
bickering in the house,

And I was always in the middle.
We feel terrible.

Well, you know what?

It was partly my fault.

I never stood up for myself,

And it took me a long
time to learn how.

Honey, I've always
admired your gentleness.

And your sense of fairness.

We both thought of you
as the strong one.

That's funny. I never
felt that way.

Look at your life, your
family, your friends.

You are strong, Denise.
You've made good choices.

Thank you.

I'm sorry. I-I've
been so stupid.

Me, too.

Come here.

Oh, I'm sorry. Mm.

Mwah.

Oh, Molly's gonna
love her aunts.

I'm gonna be the best aunt ever.

No, I am.

Okay, come on. Let's
go to dinner.

I have a surprise for you.
Oh, what kind of surprise?

♪ From the halls of Montezuma ♪

♪ to the shores of tripoli ♪

♪ we fight our
country's battles ♪

♪ on the land and on the sea ♪

♪ first to fight for
right and freedom ♪

Yeah!

I've got to admit,
you re good losers

(Yeah. Well, y'all woulda
sang off-key anyway. Ughs)

whatever.

Semper fi my butt.

Cool it.

Very nice.

Beautiful.

Absolutely.

Yeah, but don't give
up your day jobs.

Here's what I'm thinking...

Next year, we'll start
training early.

Next year? Hell, yeah.

We can't let the marines get
away with that, can we?

Hey, next year I'm gonna compete.
Yeah, me, too.

That's okay. Suzanne, you can have my
place. Oh, yeah. And, Beth, you got mine.

What? Come on. You
can't be serious.

Roland, do something.

Oh, I'm outta this. Nope.

You wanted all women. You
got all women. come on.

Hey.

May I come in?

I just had a talk with
my sergeant about you.

Me?

Yep. Told him I like you.

I don't know what
to do about it.

And what did your
sergeant tell you?

To leave you alone.

That's good advice.

Jeremy.

Look, if I've learned anything,

It's that life is precious...

And it can slip
away in an instant,

So you have to make the
most of it right now.

And if three weeks is
all we have together,

I'll take it, no strings.

And if I'm wrong...

If you don't think about
me that way, just say so,

And I won't bother you anymore.

You should go.
