Army Wives (2007–2013): Season 5, Episode 2 - Command Presence - full transcript

Previously on "Army Wives"...

Garrison commander
and a promotion.

It's probably best not to
make any plans right now.

What do you mean?

I don't think the timing
is right for a baby.

- Oh, my God.
- Who is that?

That's Finn's dad.

Get out!

Whoa, whoa, whoa. What
did you just say?

Why is he here?

Do not sass me. This is Whit.
He's my friend.



Like the friends you
used to have before dad?

Thanks for letting me come.

Drive safe.

Trust me. It's just colic.

I'm just saying, maybe it's
worth a trip to the doctor.

What you're saying is that I don't
know how to take care of my own child.

I'm gonna go.

Don't go back with your ex...

And don't take that job.

Stay here in Charleston with me.

Oh, baby, you're burning up.

Claudia Joy, there's
something wrong with Molly.

Can you meet me at
the emergency room?

Of course. I'm on my way.



Okay. I'm so sorry, baby.

Heartbeat's tachy.

Pulse ox 90. She's
pale and pasty

with a sunken anterior fontanel.

Urine is minimal and dark. She
needs fluid resuscitation.

Normal saline bolus
at 100 cc's total.

I don't understand. Why
is she so dehydrated?

- Do you breastfeed?
- Every three hours.

Get a Chem panel, a
CBC and cultures.

Molly have any, uh,
diarrhea recently?

No.

Normal amount of wet diapers?

Actually, they were
pretty dry today.

Any projectile vomiting?

No, no, just, um, spittiness.
I thought it was colic.

I can't get a flash.

We'll put in a central line.

Let ultrasound know
that we're coming up

- and reserve the O.R. on standby.
- Don't worry, sweetie. Mommy's here.

Mrs. Sherwood, I'm
sorry, but you're gonna

have to wait outside.

Ultrasound's ready for us.

Good. Lidocaine.

What's taking them so long?

I'm sure they're
just being thorough.

How is she?

Well, the ultrasound
confirmed what we suspected.

Uh, Molly has Pyloric Stenosis.

- What's that?
- It's a blockage

between the stomach and
the small intestine.

- I thought it was colic.
- It's often confused with colic.

- Yeah, still, I-I should've...
- Is it serious?

When the blockage
becomes complete.

Fortunately, Mrs. Sherwood
caught it in time.

Well, good. Thank God
for that, right?

Can I see her?

We're still correcting her
fluids and electrolytes.

Uh, once that's done,
she'll need surgery.

Surgery...

It's routine. It's about
a 20-minute procedure.

Uh, we'll operate
in the morning.

We need your consent.

T.J., Finn, get a move on.
Hup-to.

I'm ready.

Good. Where's your brother?

T.J.!

We're having a pizza
party at school today.

I know, I know. Here is your $5.

- Yes!
- Do not lose it, okay?

Okay.

Hey, where you going, mister?

- You said I could ride my bike to school.
- Without your helmet?

- Helmets are dorky.
- No helmet, no bike ride.

Mom.

T.J., don't start with me. You
know the rules. Let's go.

Fine.

Let's go.

The Kretchmer file

and the "Times" article
you were looking for.

Ah, thanks, Patty. Oh, and
I'll be leaving at noon

for colonel Burton's...

Change-of-command ceremony.
I'm all over it.

All right.

I called Mercer, and Dr.
Lawlor will cover your 1:00,

and Dr. Mead has
your 2:00 group.

- How would I get along without you?
- You wouldn't.

So this promotion to
Garrison commander...

- Yeah.
- It's a big deal, huh?

Oh, yeah. Joan's in charge

of all the day-to-day
stuff on Post.

I got a feeling her life's
gonna change in a major way.

- Well, what about yours?
- Me? Just the husband, Patty,

flying under the
radar like always.

- Yeah, right.
- Right.

Okay, let's get started.

We begin with a small
incision near the umbilicus.

Here you go.

Thanks.

Okay.

Were you able to reach Frank?

Yeah. I told him
I'd call him again

when Molly's out of surgery.

Right.

How did I miss it?

Denise, you heard
what the doctor said.

Pyloric Stenosis is easily
confused with colic.

I'm a trained nurse,
Claudia Joy, a paramedic.

And a mother who's already
raised a colicky baby.

Of course you're gonna think
it's the same thing with Molly.

- Anyone would.
- Tanya didn't.

She tried to tell me
something was wrong,

and I... I snapped at her.

She left the house in tears.

Everything went as expected.
Molly's doing fine.

She's in recovery now.

We're gonna keep her another
day for observation.

Barring any complications,
you should be able

- to take her home tomorrow.
- Thank you. Thank you so much.

Of course.

Hey, Boone.

Hey, Moran.

Hello? You still there?

Yeah. Uh, what's up?

Uh, I've got tomorrow's
schedule in front of me.

Sawicki's out, so you're
taking Sector Five, not Seven.

Okay. Great.

Yeah, I just wanted to
give you a heads-up.

Um... right. Thanks.

Yeah. I'm, uh, working
the same shift.

Okay.

So I was thinking, uh,

maybe you want to grab
some drinks after work?

Let me guess.

Happy hour at Taco Boy?

You got something
against Taco Boy?

No, it's just that
their margaritas

make people do strange things.

Yeah.

So is that a yes or a no?

I don't know. Uh, maybe.

Come on, Moran. No more maybes.

Yes or no? Up or down?

Salt or no salt?

Moran?

Okay. Yes.

And no salt.

Okay.

Hasta mañana.

Hasta mañana.

Hey, Red.

Chase! You're back!

He just showed up outta nowhere?

Yeah, and scared
the crap outta me.

You think he heard you
talking to Boone?

No, definitely not,

but it was written
all over my face.

What?

I don't know. Um,
embarrassment, guilt?

You didn't do anything wrong.

You were talking on the phone.
And Chase is your ex-husband.

I know, I know, but
still, it felt like

he had caught us between
the sheets or something.

Really? Is there something
you're not telling me?

No.

Chase shoulda called first,

- let you know he was back.
- Yeah, but that's not his style.

Did you tell him
about the job offer?

Yeah, I managed to
squeak that part out.

And?

And I told him I haven't
made any decisions

about Atlanta or anything else.

And, you know, I know Chase said

that he'd quit Delta if I
came back to him, but...

But?

But Chase loves Delta.

So what if he gives it up,
and six months later,

figures out he made a big
mistake and blames me?

Hey, ladies.

Hi.

Thanks for coming. I know
Joan really appreciates it.

Of course.

Chase is back.

Really? What'd you tell him?

Oh, come on. Not you, too.

- Hi, everybody.
- Hey.

Hey, Claudia Joy.
Where's Denise?

She told me you guys
were coming together.

Oh, well, Denise can't make it.

Everything's fine,
but she's at Mercer.

- What?
- What happened?

There was a little scare
with Molly last night.

Hello.

Hey, Tanya. It's Denise.

Oh, hi.

Hope I'm not
interrupting anything.

No, I'm just packing.

Uh, Tanya, I'm calling
from Mercer hospital.

Why? What happened?

Well, you were right about Molly.
She was sick.

She had Pyloric Stenosis.

Oh, my God. How is she?

Well, she's perfectly
healthy now, thanks to you.

Well, I-I didn't do anything.

Yes, you did.

But I wouldn't listen.
I was being stubborn.

I'm sorry.

All that matters is
that Molly is okay.

Would you come to the hospital?

I'd like you to see her.

Please.

Mrs. holden,

honored guests and friends,

soldiers, and army civilians
of Fort Marshall,

it is my privilege

to continue the work
of Colonel Tate.

All policies and procedures
will remain in effect.

I wouldn't be
standing here today

if not for the outstanding
soldiers I have served with

during my proud career in
the United States Army.

Without them, none of this
would've been possible.

I particularly would like
to thank my husband,

Dr. Roland Burton.

He has sacrificed beyond measure
to help me reach this day.

My husband and my daughter
give me the strength

and the reason to carry on.

And I can never
thank them enough.

Hey.

Hey.

Thanks for coming.

Of course.

Hey there, pumpkin. Are
you feeling better?

Mm-hmm.

For the baby.

Oh, you didn't have to.

I saw it at the P.X.
And I couldn't resist.

Oh, it's adorable.

Thanks. Here.

Hey.

Let's try this one on, huh?

Oh, yeah. She likes it.

Good.

Hi. Hi.

Tanya... It's okay.

No, it's not.

You came for a friendly
visit, and I was awful.

No, you weren't.

Oh, yes, I was.

Okay, a little.

It's just that Jeremy is...

He was my first baby and...
whew.

I get it. Really.

I wish you and I could
start over somehow.

We have.

Surprise. Hi.

Sorry. I couldn't
keep them away.

Aw. Hi.

Hi. Mwah.

Mwah. Hey, everyone.
This is Tanya Gabriel...

Jeremy's fiancée.

Hi. Hey, Tanya.

And this is Claudia Joy,
Pamela, Roxy, Roland.

Hi.

Don't worry. You'll
get used to us.

Yeah, and you don't really
have a choice, so...

- How you doin', Denise?
- Great.

Yeah, how was Joan's ceremony?

It was terrific.

Oh, my God. I just realized,

I won't be able to make it
to your graduation tomorrow.

Oh, don't worry.

- Oh, yeah, and I have to work.
- Oh, Claudia Joy, me, too.

I know you're all busy.
Don't worry.

- Well, hell, I'll be there.
- Thanks, Roxy.

- Sure.
- You're graduating?

Damn straight.
Claudia Joy Holden

- for the defense.
- I'm getting my law degree.

Wow. Congratulations.

Well, thank you. It's
a midyear ceremony,

so there's not a lot of
pomp and circumstance.

Oh, she's being modest. She's
at the top of her class.

Oh, excuse me. Sorry.

Hello. Yes, this is Mrs.
LeBlanc.

W... that cannot be right.

As I explained on
the phone, ma'am,

your son was caught shoplifting
an mp3 player from the P.X.

- this afternoon.
- You sure it was him?

Your son was photographed
by video surveillance

and the player was found
in his possession.

You stole an mp3 player?

Thank you, officers,
and you can be sure

that he will be properly
punished for this.

Well, that's your discretion,
ma'am, but you and your son

are to report to the juvenile
discipline review board

- tomorrow at 1300 hours.
- The what?

The juvenile discipline
review board.

They handle offenses
like this on Post.

And I'm guessing I don't
have a choice in that.

No, ma'am.

Have a good day.

Inside.

What in the world
is going on, T.J.?

I don't know.

Look at me when I
am talking to you.

Where did you get the
idea that it is okay

to take something that
does not belong to you?

I am so mad at you right now,

I don't even know what to say.

Is this the first time
you stole something?

Yes.

So if I go into your
room right now,

I am not gonna find
anything else?

No.

We'll see about that.

Mom!

That's my stuff.

And it's in my house.

That's mine.

You steal and now you lie to me?

Is this all of it?

Answer me, T.J., right
now, or I swear to God...

Yes.

- Let's go.
- Where?

Back to the P.X. You're
gonna return this stuff

and you're gonna tell
'em what you did.

Mom!

You move it.

I have never been so
embarrassed in my whole life.

Having to tell the store
manager at the P.X.

That my son took
all that stuff...

I swear, Pamela.

I just don't know what's
going on with him anymore.

Oh, I'm sorry, Rox.

It's like he's turned
into this little monster,

and I just want my
sweet, happy boy back.

I'm starting to get some of
that from Katie and Lucas, too.

Yeah, but they're not
shoplifting from the P.X.

And you know what's weird?
Most of the stuff he took,

he hadn't even unwrapped it yet.

- Figure that out.
- Feeling guilty, maybe?

- So why keep stealing?
- I don't know.

Kids do crazy things.

Oh, shoot.

What?

Now I can't go

to Claudia Joy's
graduation tomorrow.

I have to go

to this discipline review
punishment thing with T.J.

Well, I'm sure
she'll understand.

- Well, what am I supposed to tell her?
- The truth.

Uh, no. I'm not telling
Claudia Joy Holden

that my son is a thief.

- Roxy!
- I'll just tell her

that there's a field trip for
one of the boys or something.

Hey, mom.

Um, hey, Roxy. Chase
is here with the kids.

So you hang in there, and I'll
call you back later, okay?

Okay. Thanks.

- Dad took us to the pier.
- Okay, bye.

Fish and chips. We
brought you some.

- But Lucas ate all your chips.
- I did not.

Well, that's okay. I
don't need any chips

- if I want to keep fitting in my uniform.
- Oh, you fit into it just fine.

Can we watch TV?

Uh, homework first.

But... No buts. Go.

Fine.

So...

Chase, if you want an answer,
I don't have one yet.

Pamela...

and I know it's annoying, but
I've got a lot to think about.

Pamela, I have something to say.

Okay. Sorry.

I dropped my papers today.

It'll take a month
or so to process,

but after that, I won't be
a Delta operator anymore.

I know I told you I was
gonna wait for your answer,

but while I was away this
time, I got to thinking.

I want to be near the
kids, no matter what.

So I requested a
reassignment to instructor.

Wow.

No more missions.

No more leaving in the
middle of the night.

No more worrying
about where I am.

Wow.

You said that already.

Are you sure about this?

Yeah, I'm positive.

Okay, time to turn
off reading lights.

Night, mom.

Night, Finn.

Night, T.J.

Hey, babe.

Oh, am I glad to talk to you.

What the hell is
going on there, Rox?

- What?
- I come back from patrol,

and my platoon sergeant
pulls me out of chow line

and tells me T.J.'s
stealing from the P.X.

Yeah. Um...

That's what I wanted
to talk to you about.

What the hell is going on?

Hey, do not yell at me, Trevor.

- Well, my son's stealing?
- It's our son,

and I don't know what's
going on with him either,

other than the fact that his
father is 8,000 miles away.

Oh, so this is my fault?

I suppose this has nothing
to do with the fact

that you had some guy sleep
over the other night?

What??

I heard about it from
three other guys, Roxy.

Their wives told 'em his
truck was still parked

out in front of our
house the next morning

and that you kissed
him good-bye.

I did not kiss him.

It... it's an old friend.
Nothing happened.

What old friend?

Finn's dad. Whit.

Finn's dad? I thought you
said he was out of your life.

He was. He is. He was
just passing through.

His daddy died and
left him some money,

and he wanted to give
Finn some of it.

Well, you didn't
take it did you?

It's for Finn's college fund.

Damn it, Roxy. We don't
need anybody's money.

I can provide for our family.

I know you can, babe.

So... so you took his money

then you had beers with
him on our front porch

with the whole
neighborhood watching.

I had two beers.

And he had a couple more,

so I let him sleep
it off on the couch.

You're unbelievable. You
let an ex-boyfriend

sleep in our house
while I'm not there?

On the couch.

And he's not an ex-boyfriend.
I already told you that.

No, he's just the
father of your son.

And you really wonder why
T.J.'s stealing from the P.X.?

That is so unfair.

It has absolutely nothing
to do with that.

How could you... I can't even
believe you could say that!

What do you want me to say?

I come back from patrol after
busting my ass for five days

to find out my wife is kissing
some other dude on our porch.

I told you that that
is not what happened.

Look, Trevor, I think

we need to concentrate on what
is really important here. Okay?

You need to talk to T.J.,

because he will listen to you,

and I can't play bad
cop all the time.

Fine. I'll try you tomorrow.
I gotta go.

Fine.

Ugh!

Ma'am, governor
Haley's office called

to confirm her attendance
at tonight's reception.

Excellent.

Yes, ma'am. It'll be
a good opportunity

to bring up your green
initiative for the Post.

Good idea, sergeant major.

I see we have the Juvenile
Discipline Review Board today.

Yes, ma'am. Last Tuesday
of every month.

Four cases today... Wilson,
Cross, Tobias, and LeBlanc.

LeBlanc?

Toby Jack LeBlanc, ma'am. You
familiar with the family?

Yes, I am.

Is that gonna be a problem?

Not at all, sergeant major.

What else do we have today?

Let's see.

We have a meeting with Colonel
Reddick at 1100 hours.

The Provost Marshal wants
to present upgrade

for the perimeter at 1600 hours.

However, I suggest
we move that...

Excuse me.

Thank you. All right.

Claudia Joy.

Congratulations.

Thank you, Professor Chandler.

You know, my class won't
be the same without you.

Oh, I bet you say that
to all your students.

No. Uh, I don't.

Uh... you alone?

Yes, Michael's, um,
in Afghanistan

and my friends were tied up.

Well, you can't be alone
on your graduation day.

How about lunch?

Oh, come on. You worked
hard to get to this day.

You d... you deserve a
little celebration.

You're right.

Excellent.

So... What are you
in the mood for?

So, uh, I take it

you are studying for the bar?

I am.

South Carolina and New York.

New York?

Mm-hmm. Michael's
being considered

- for a position at West Point.
- Oh, impressive.

Also confidential.

Understood.

So...

What about when you're
done with the bar?

I don't know.

Have you considered
applying for a clerkship?

Working for a judge would
make you very marketable.

Oh, I would love to.

But any judge would expect
me to work full-time,

and that's just, uh,
it's not realistic

with my duties at Fort Marshall.

I see.

And most law firms don't
offer part-time work, so...

Most.

But...

Not all.

Would you consider
working for me?

Now that we've reviewed the
charges against you, T.J.,

is there anything
you'd like to say?

I'm really sorry.

I mean, I know stealing's wrong
and I won't do it again.

And he means that, too. T.J.
Is not a problem, and I...

Mrs. LeBlanc, please sit down.

You're not permitted to
speak at this proceeding.

Sorry. He really is a good boy.

T.J., the board
appreciates your apology

and hopes that your
remorse is sincere.

Nevertheless, criminal
behavior cannot go unpunished.

You are barred from the P.X.
for six months.

You will be issued a new I.D.
Card

with restrictions.

You will also write
a 500-word essay

on the dangers of shoplifting

to be delivered to this
board in one week.

Do you understand?

Yes, ma'am.

Additionally, to recover costs
related to shoplifting,

per Post Exchange regulation,

I am imposing a $100 fee
per shoplifted item...

an mp3 player, two DVDs,

a package of markers,
and a model car.

Wait a minute. That's $500.

Please, Mrs. LeBlanc, sit down.

But he returned all that stuff,

and he also apologized
to the store manager.

We recognize the burden these
fines may place on you,

but they are mandated by policy.

Well, you wouldn't have even
known about those other items

if I didn't make T.J.
Bring them back.

Mrs. LeBlanc, your presence
here is a privilege.

Just as it is a privilege
for your family

to have housing on Post.

In the future, I recommend you
control your son's behavior.

Thank you for your time.

Let's go.

It was so unfair.

Okay, all right, slow down.

She fined me $500...

- Right.
- And humiliated me.

Look, Joan was just doing her job.
It's not personal.

Not personal? She threatened
to throw us off Post.

I'm sure she didn't mean that.

You weren't there.

No, I wasn't.

- So what do you want me to do?
- I don't know. Talk to her.

We returned everything,

so why should we have to
pay a fine on top of that?

Look, Roxy, I'm sorry,

but I'm not gonna tell my
wife how to do her job.

If you want, I could... I
could talk to T.J. For you.

No, thank you. I
can handle my son.

Well, I thought you just told
me you were having problems.

I'll handle it.

Hey, look... I know
this is rough.

But Joan's job is to
enforce Post regulations.

I'm sure it was
hard on her, too.

Not as hard as it was on me.

No.

But the real problem
here is T.J., isn't it?

I guess.

Trevor been any help?

You don't want to know.

Thank you. Sorry to bother you.

Hey, Roxy.

I'm here.

Good news.

They cleared Molly
to go home today.

Good.

Tanya's gonna stay
a few extra days

and help out.

Great. I'm so glad.

Oh, me, too.

How was graduation?

It was fine.

Professor Chandler was there.

Mm-hmm. Took me to lunch.

Mm. Nice.

Hey.

Big Professor taking
out his star pupil.

Ah. I guess.

Oh, did you hear from Michael?

No.

Hmm.

I'm sure he's busy.

Yeah.

Claudia Joy.

Hmm?

I have to admit,

some flowers would've
been nice...

Or a card even.

Mm. I know it's silly.

It's not silly at all.

Hello, Tom.

Afternoon, Mrs. Holden.

Your garbage disposal
is back in business.

And I fixed that leak
in your guest bathroom.

Good. You're a lifesaver.

Not at all.

Oh, uh,

those came for you
while I was here.

Pretty.

Yeah.

You have a good day now.

Thanks, Tom. You, too.

Michael.

Hello, beautiful.

Hey.

I just had a minute. I thought
I'd try and catch you.

- I'm glad you did.
- I wanted to tell you,

the list for West Point
just got shorter,

and I'm still on it.

That's wonderful.

I don't want to brag,

but I really think I have
a good shot at this.

How was your day?

It was good.
Graduation was nice.

Wait a minute. That was today?

No. How did I screw that up?

I had it down as next week.

Oh, Claudia Joy, I am so sorry.

- It's okay.
- No, it's not.

You're busy, Michael. You
have a lot on your mind.

That's no excuse

after all the hard
work you put in.

- You know how proud I am of you?
- I do.

Oh, man.

Michael, it's okay.

Besides... I have
some good news, too.

I got a job offer today.

What? You haven't
even taken the Bar.

I know. It's only part-time,
and Professor Chandler says

I can work around my
responsibilities on Post.

Chandler? You're taking a
job with Grant Chandler?

With his law firm.

They do a lot of
public interest law.

I didn't say yes. I wanted
to talk to you first.

Right.

Michael, it's a
great opportunity.

Associate-level work...
there's no way

I'd get an offer like
this anywhere else.

Well, you know I'm not
wild about the guy.

But whatever you
decide, I'll support.

Thank you.

I gotta go. I love you.

I love you, too.

And I will make up for this.

Forget about it, honey.

Not a chance.

So Chase is switching jobs.
He's gonna be on Post now.

Yeah. An instructor.

And the Atlanta job
is still open.

Yep.

And I am right here.

Yeah.

Have you made a decision,
any decisions?

♪

Yeah, I'm gonna have
the fish tacos.

Funny, Moran.

You know...

Boone, you really blindsided
me the other day.

I guess I just had
never thought of us...

Like that.

That's just what every
guy wants to hear.

I know. Sorry.

Hey, if you need more time...

I don't need more time.

You sure?

Yeah. I mean...
Who am I kidding?

Why didn't I just go for the
Atlanta job right away?

Because I'm still
in love with Chase.

♪

Claudia Joy, have a seat.

Uh, no, no, I-I can't stay long.

First I wanted to thank
you for the flowers.

- They're beautiful.
- A-a-and?

Well, um... When I
commit to something,

I like to see it
through to the end.

But in this case, I know
you're gonna be putting in

a lot of time and
resources, and...

you're not sure how much longer
you're gonna be in Charleston.

Exactly. This is the
Army, after all.

And I don't want to
shortchange you.

Noted and appreciated.

But I wouldn't have
made the offer

if I hadn't taken
that into account.

We'll get our money's worth out of you.
Believe me.

Yeah?

You can count on it.

Okay. I will.

- Is that a yes?
- It is.

Welcome to Chandler,
Arnoff & Drake.

Thank you, Professor.

Grant.

Grant. Thank you.

This is my third event for Joan

in the past two days.

There's a big difference
between being

a soldier's spouse and
a commander's spouse.

Seriously.

Do you ever get tired of it,

the responsibility?

Sometimes.

It's a constant balancing
act between your needs,

your spouse's needs,
and the army's needs.

As far as Uncle Sam's concerned,

you're an extension
of Joan's office.

Right.

It's not what I signed
up for, Claudia Joy.

Making small talk
with dignitaries

is not exactly my
idea of a good time.

Get used to it.

Come on.

Joan will start wondering
why you're avoiding her.

Well, she's with the Governor.
Exactly, and that's why

- you need to be right at her side.
- Claudia Joy...

come on, soldier.

Colonel, sergeant major.

Evening, Claudia Joy.

Governor Haley, it's so
good to see you again.

It's my pleasure.

Governor, this is my husband, Dr.
Roland Burton.

Evening, ma'am. Uh, Governor.

- Nice to meet you, Dr. Burton.
- Same here.

I was just telling Roland
how much we appreciate

- your support of military families.
- Thank you.

Thank you.

I know Joan's really
looking forward

to working with you on some
environmental initiatives.

Really? I'd love to
hear about that.

I was just getting there,

but my husband is one
step ahead of me.

Well, it happens occasionally,
but very occasionally.

All right. Well, I'd
love to talk about it.

Devlin, you will set that up?
I'll check the schedule.

Hey, dad.

What's going on with you?

I messed up.

Yeah.

You messed up big-time.

Yeah, I told everyone I'm sorry.

Okay. So what are
you gonna tell me?

Do I have to remind you that
your actions have consequences?

No.

And not just
consequences for you,

but for your mom,
me, Finn, everyone.

I know.

I gotta say, T.J., I'm
real disappointed in you.

I expected a lot more.

I need you to stay on the
right path from now on.

- You understand?
- Yes.

Yes, what?

Yes, sir.

Okay. Put your mom back on.

Okay. Bye, dad.

He wants to talk to you again.

Okay. Go get ready for bed.

- So?
- So I hope I got through to him.

Yeah, me, too.

I can't take much
more of this, Trevor.

I don't know what's
going on there, Rox,

but whatever it is,
it's gotta stop.

Now.

Really, Trevor, does it?
Does it need to stop?

Thank you so much
for your support.

Well, you're the one at home,

so you're the one who's
gotta keep it together.

Yeah.

Well, do you want to
tell me how to do that?

I thought that went well.

Yeah.

It's gonna take a
little getting used to,

being a commander's spouse.

You did great.

Thank you.

Hey, Roxy came by
to see me today.

Oh?

Yeah, she was pretty upset.

Her son stole from the P.X.

And had to face
the consequences.

Mm-hmm.

I sure hope he
learned his lesson.

Me, too.

But 500 bucks?
Sounds kinda harsh.

I agree, but it's Post policy.

Roxy shouldn't have
come to you with this.

Ah, don't worry. I defended you.

I don't need defending.

Her son is the one who
did something wrong.

Okay. I understand.

I hope so.

As Garrison commander,

I've got a lot of people
watching my every move.

As a woman, particularly
as a woman of color,

I've got to be better
than good at this job.

I have got to be outstanding.

One hint of favoritism,

one sign of weakness,

my credibility is gone.

I got it.

Thank you.

♪

He was so cute when
he was little.

Mm. Yes, he was.

I'm sorry we don't have
a proper guest bedroom.

We turned Jeremy's
room into the nursery.

Compared to Afghanistan,

this is a five-star hotel.

Aw. Well, I think
you're all set.

I'll see you in the morning.
Good night.

I'm so glad you're here.

- Me, too.
- Yeah.

Well, I appreciate your

stay in Charleston.

No.

Strictly personal.

Okay.

Thank you, sir.

Good night.

Let's go! Wheels up in 20.

Come on.

Hey, leave your name and
number and I'll call you back.

Hey, Chase. It's me.

Listen, I need to
talk to you, so...

Give me a call as soon
as you get this, okay?
