Army Wives (2007–2013): Season 5, Episode 7 - Strategic Alliances - full transcript

Chase and Pamela planned to remarry quietly, despite Roxy's insisting on a grand party, but the kids have their hearts set on attending their parents' wedding. Trevor won't even discuss Roxy's plans to build the truck-stop cheaply, so she doesn't even mention the contractor is her ex Whit, who ingratiates himself with everybody by saving the wedding when the power breaks down. Claudia Joy confides only in boss Chandler that she's being tested for cancer.

Taking a job with
Grant Chandler?

With his law firm.

Welcome to Chandler,
Arnoff & Drake.

- Thank you, Professor.
- Grant.

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

We're not getting any younger.

What's going on with
the truck stop?

Nothing.

Last time we talked, it
was full speed ahead.

That was before the bank
cut my loan in half.

- Maybe it was a blessing in disguise.
- Are you saying I made a mistake?



How'd you get the
contractor's fee so low?

I've got a friend.

Well, what are we waiting for?
Call him!

Hey, Whit. It's me.

- Chase and I are...
- She said yes!

- Oh, wow. You're getting married?
- When's the date?

Well, we haven't
decided on a time yet.

If you ask me, the
sooner the better.

Well, in that case, what's
everybody doing next Sunday?

Okay, new load.

Hey.

- Ohh.
- You okay?

Yeah, I think I pulled a
muscle at yoga yesterday.

And see? That is why
I don't exercise.



And, Pamela, thank
you for coming.

Service above and beyond
the call of duty.

Please. I will be an official
Army wife again soon.

Yeah, how soon?

I haven't gotten my
wedding invitation yet?

Oh, that's because they're
not having a wedding.

Can you believe it?

- What?
- Roxy!

Yeah, they're doing it
down at the courthouse

like they're paying some
parking ticket or something.

Chase and I already had a
big wedding the first time.

The second time is just...

What, a rerun? Real
romantic, Moran.

What do you expect, a
poofy white dress,

big church, the
whole nine yards?

What's wrong with that?
I think we deserve it.

What? Oh, Roxy, it doesn't
matter how they do it.

The point is, they're
getting married.

Thank you.

- We should be happy for them.
- Yeah, happy that they're doing it

like a couple of fugitives
down at the courthouse,

right down the hall from the
murderers and the drug dealers.

- Come on, am I alone here?
- Well, when you put it like that.

Okay, we're not having
this discussion.

Chase and I are doing it the way
we want to do it, and that's it.

But... Zip it.

Mom! Mom, look at this.
It's the perfect dress.

Well, hello to you, too.

I found it online.
It's Vera Wang.

Where did you get this?

I've been googling
wedding stuff all week.

Don't you love it?

Well, yeah, it's nice, but...

Nice? Mom, it's Vera Wang.

All the stars are wearing
their hair down these days.

But yours is kind
of messy that way,

so I was thinking that you
should wear your hair up.

But no veil. Veils
are so lame, right?

And this is the tuxedo that
I think dad should wear.

I like the regular tie
instead of the bow tie.

- Look, Katie, we're not...
- This is so awesome.

How many kids get to be at
their parents' wedding?

I was thinking that we
should do a cupcake tower

instead of a regular cake.
What do you think?

I think... That sounds awesome.

Oh.

Ooh. Oh, no.

Whew.

I'm coming, sweetheart.

Who's ready for some breakfast?

We are.

Ooh, your daddy is a
man of many talents.

Yes, he is.

Here, eat your food.
Use your fork.

Oh, I got it.

Hello? Roland?

Denise? You sound terrible.

Yeah, believe me, I feel worse.

What's the matter?

Stomach, head. I would
go to my doctor, but...

I'm spending too much
time in the bathroom.

Well, where's Frank? D.C.

Okay. I'll be right over.

Okay. Ohh.

Roland, this really
isn't necessary.

- It's 101.
- Oh.

That's pretty serious, Denise.

You have nausea?

Both. Tips and tails.

That's delightful.

Looks like you've got
that stomach bug

that's been going around.
Patty had it last week.

Laid her out for 24 hours,
and then she was fine.

Can you prescribe something?

It's viral, Denise. You know
that drugs aren't gonna help.

I can't afford to be sick,
not with Frank out of town.

I got her.

Oh, are you sure?

I've changed more than
my share of diapers.

Hey, Denise, why don't you let
Joan and me babysit Molly?

- What?
- Just until you feel better.

No.

We got day care at Piedmont,

and Joan and I can
watch her tonight.

What do you say? Excuse me.

Oh, yeah.

- Denise?
- Yes, take her!

Okay.



Okay, you win. We're
having a wedding.

Yay!

See? I knew you'd come around
if I nagged you enough.

Actually, smart-ass,
it was Katie.

She's nuts about a big wedding.

She downloaded all
of this stuff.

She's got her heart set on it,
and I just can't disappoint her.

Wow. Katie has some
expensive taste.

No kidding.

So what do you think
we can throw together

before Sunday?

Heading back to the job site.

♪ It's time to let it out ♪

Was that... Whit, yeah.

Finn's dad?

He's back?

He's my contractor
for the truck stop.

Wait a minute. I thought you didn't
get the loan for the truck stop.

No, I just didn't get
as much as I wanted.

That's why I had to hire Whit.
He's giving us a break.

That didn't happen to be his
trailer parked outside.

Yep.

So Finn's dad is
your contractor,

he's living in your parking lot,
and Trevor's cool with this?



Please tell me you told Trevor.

I am going to tell him tonight.

Let's not talk about the
truck stop anymore.

We've got a wedding to plan.

Mm.

- Ah, catching up?
- Uh, slowly.

Grant, thanks again for being
understanding about my time off.

Oh, of course, of course.
Here...

- Riverside case.
- Chandler, Arnoff & Drake.

Take a look. We'll talk.

Ma'am, please slow down.
I can't understand you.

I... Mr. Chandler, a woman for you.
Elena something.

I can't make out what she's
saying, but she's very upset.

Ma'am.

Ma'am, you need to
unlock this door now.

Uh, stay back, please.

I'm an attorney. My
name is Grant Chandler.

This is my associate, and
Elena Cabrera is my client.

What, she called you
from the bathroom?

Yes, she did,

and I'd like to speak with
her if you don't mind.

Yeah, I do mind.

How does a waitress happen to
have a lawyer on speed dial?

Well, now that's really
none of your business,

but Elena Cabrera happens
to be my friend.

She serves me breakfast
here every morning.

Maybe you could tell
us what's going on.

Simple. We've got a
standing order to deport.

Well, there must
be some mistake.

No mistake... When we
showed her the warrant,

she ran into the bathroom
and locked herself in.

Well, can we talk to her?

It's easier than
breaking the door down.

Five minutes.

Thank you.

Elena, it's Grant Chandler.
Uh, let me in so we can talk.

Elena, unlock the door.

I promise, no immigration agents
are gonna come in with me.

Elena, this is Claudia Joy. She
works with me. She's a friend.

You okay?

- No, no, no.
- All right, all right, all right.

Just tell us what's going on.

They want to send me
back to El Salvador.

I have my green card, Mr.
Chandler.

- I'm legal. I can prove it.
- I know, I know.

Obviously, there's been some
kind of screwup somewhere.

If Antonio was here, he
would know how to fix this.

- Is Antonio your husband?
- Yes.

Where is he? Maybe we can
get in touch with him.

No. No, you can't,

because he's in Afghanistan.

He's in the army.

Yeah. Look, we're gonna
take care of this, Elena.

But for right now, I... I
need you to come outside.

No.

They'll arrest me,
put me in jail.

Yes, but there's nothing we
can do about that right now.

No, Mr. Chandler.
They'll send me back.

No, they won't.

The army will never
let that happen,

not with your
husband in uniform.

Look, I-I know how
scared you are.

But we'll be with you
every step of the way.

Promise.

You ready?

Okay.

Put your hands behind your back.

This way.

Am I getting out of here?

Elena, your green
card is a forgery.

No, no. That's impossible.

My mother, she paid for
it in El Salvador.

She used her life savings.

We... we filled out forms.
We went to the...

I'm sorry.

Whoever your mother
paid was a crook...

A clever crook.

The documents aren't genuine.

I don't understand.

I've been in this
country for six years,

paid my taxes.

W-why? W-why do they
come after me now?

Because you applied
for citizenship.

Yes. Antonio became a citizen
after he joined the army,

and now it's my turn.

Unfortunately, the background
check revealed the problem.

Ay, dios.

What am I going to do, Mr.
Chandler?

What's going to
happen to the baby?

The baby?

I'm pregnant.

So now what do we do?

Well, we hope for a
sympathetic judge.

Oh, who wouldn't be
sympathetic in this case?

Well, she is here
illegally, Claudia Joy.

She didn't know that.

Well, that's immaterial.
Gotta do better, counselor.

Now we can work on a stay,

but we need to
contact her husband.

He can petition on
Elena's behalf.

And we may need to pull
some strings with the army.

Okay, I'll try.

Good.

No, don't worry about it.

You may call whenever.

All right. Good night.

Hmm. Let me guess.

Yep.

That's three calls in two hours.

Your mommy misses you
very, very much.

Of course. Who can blame her?

Look at her, roland.

She's so tiny.

Hey. Is that baby tiny?

Yeah?

All right, come on. You
want to play Patty-cake?

Patty-cake, Patty-cake...
Patty-cake, Patty-cake,

Baker's man. Baker's man.

Bake me a cake as fast as you can.
Fast as you can.

Roll 'em... Roll 'em...
And pat it...

And mark it with a "b"...
Hit it with a "b"...

And put it in the oven...
Put it in...

For baby and me. For baby...
Give it up.



What do you think?

Pretty straightforward.

Gonna sub the pumps, though.

Don't have that much
experience with gas.

Place ever goes
up in a fireball,

I don't want you blaming me.

Okay. Well, thank you for putting
that picture in my head.

Don't worry, Rox. I
won't let you down.

I know you won't.

All right. I gotta get home.

Trevor's calling.

That'll be nice.

Yeah. Uh, hey, Karen, can
I get a refill over here?

- Have a good one.
- You, too.



Thanks.

It is so unfair, Michael.

She's in custody just because
she wants to become a citizen.

Have you tried JAG?

My first call. My first
three calls, actually.

I got different answers from
three different people,

none of them helpful.

Really? That's not acceptable.

What can I do?

Put us in touch with
specialist Cabrera.

He could apply for an
immediate relative visa.

I could e-mail you all that as
soon as we hang... hang up.

You okay?

Yeah. I'm trying
this new yoga class.

Uh... Pulled a muscle.

Well, take it easy.

Ahh, it's a great
stress reliever.

You really should
keep up with it.

It's not really the same
without you next to me

in those sexy outfits
with the music.

Honey.

A man can dream, can't he?

I'm glad you do.

Minster... check.

Cupcake tower... check.

Tuxedos... check.

Vera Wang knockoff... check.

Oh, Roxy's working on a band,

and we are gonna see
a venue tomorrow.

- You are really getting into this.
- Oh, please.

If it were up to me, we'd
be in line to see a judge

right behind Glenda, the ax murderer.
- Who?

Never mind.

What do you think
about all this?

Ah, I think it's great.
The kids are excited,

all our friends are
gonna be there,

and this time, I will be sober.

- Chase.
- I'm kidding.

Look, all that matters
to me is that

I get to wake up next to you
for the rest of my life.

And I mean that.

Hey.

- What's pink and fuzzy?
- I don't know, buddy. What?

Pink fuzz. What's
blue and fuzzy?

Blue fuzz?

No. Pink fuzz
holding its breath.

Yeesh. Okay. You got me there.

Hey, can I speak to
your mom, please?

Sure.

Mom, dad wants to talk to you.

Okay. Go brush your teeth.

Whoa. Hey. Go brush your teeth.

Tell your brother to get in the shower.
- Yes, ma'am.

- Hey, babe. How are you?
- I'm good. You?

Fantastic. Do you believe
T.J.'s report card?

He seemed really proud.

Yeah. Um, I've actually
got some news, too.

We are breaking ground on
the truck stop tomorrow.

O-okay. I thought you said
the bank turned you down.

Yeah, not entirely.

See, I found ways to cut costs,
lower the amount that we need,

like, uh, there's
this contractor...

You told me this thing was dead.

Yeah, but there's
a contractor...

I don't give a damn about
your contractor, Roxy.

You should've talked to
me about this first.

I have tried talking to you,

but every time I do, you tell
me what a bad idea it is.

Maybe because it is.

Well, I am doing what I think
is right for the boys.

We're going in
circles here, babe.

We agreed not to do
anything until I got home.

No, no. We did not
agree on that.

Yeah, we did, but once you
get something in your head,

there's no turning
back, is there?

You're just gonna do it no matter what.
That is not true. Look...

Okay, look. I have to tell
you about this contractor.

Forget it, Roxy. Go ahead and
build your damn truck stop.

Just don't talk to me about it.

Trevor?

Trevor?

I didn't hear you get up.

Well, you fed her at 2:00.

I thought I'd let you sleep.

I can take her if you
want to go back to bed.

Oh, no. I'm good.

We haven't lost our
touch, have we?

Nah. We still got it.

Hmm. Think we could keep her?

I'm pretty sure Denise
and Frank would notice.

- Probably right.
- Yeah.

Hi. Hi, Molly.

So he hung up on you?

Wouldn't even let me
tell him about Whit,

and I tried, believe me.

Well, try me.

Why did you hire Whit?

Well, I told you. He's
saving us a lot of money.

What?

What do you think is
gonna happen, seriously?

It's how it looks, Rox.

I said to Whit, he's
not allowed on Post.

No one will ever see him.

And the work will be done
before Trevor gets back.

Heck, Trevor doesn't even have
to know he was ever here.

I'm sorry to keep you waiting.

So what do you think
of the grounds?

It's fantastic.

Yeah, it's beautiful.
What if it rains?

We have a tent for
inclement weather,

naturally.

You know, it really is kismet,
you calling like this.

We are booked solid
for six months,

but the couple who
reserved this Sunday

- suddenly got cold feet.
- Great.

I mean for us, not for them.

Our price card.

Now let me walk you
through the options.

Well, as you can imagine,
it's extremely difficult

dealing with the authorities
in El Salvador.

And Mrs. Cabrera's mother,
who obtained the green card,

died two years ago.

I see.

And the record shows that Mrs.
Cabrera

has never committed a crime.

Well, other than entering
the United States illegally

and working here with
false documents.

Mrs. Cabrera is also three
months pregnant, your honor.

Her husband was home on medical
leave earlier this year

after he was wounded
in action, and...

Congratulations to
the happy couple.

But what does that have
to do with anything?

She'd like to have
her child here.

You mean her anchor baby.

Of course she would like
to have the child here.

The baby would automatically
become a citizen.

All right. I've heard enough.

I'm sure we're grateful
to specialist Cabrera

for his military service,

however, based on
the evidence...

The court denies the request
for a stay of deportation.

Well, we request more
time, your honor.

You have seven days before
deportation, Mr. Chandler.

Bail is denied.

Seven days?

We're sorry, Elena.

The judge is running for
public office next year.

He doesn't want to appear
soft on immigration.

Have you talked to Antonio?

Not yet.

We're doing everything
we can to reach him.

He was so proud to enlist.

The army would provide
for our family,

would give us all a better life.

Much better.

Fresh diaper, happy baby.

The display box
arrived yesterday.

It's nice, Denise.

It's really nice.

Thanks.

You know, we could always
keep her a second night,

- No problem.
- Oh, thanks, but my fever's gone.

I'm feeling human again.

Don't look so disappointed.

Well, I have to admit, wouldn't
have broken our hearts

if it had been a 48-hour bug.

Oh, yeah. Easy for you to say.

- Thanks again.
- It was our pleasure, believe me.

I'll see you, Molly girl.

You come see us again
real soon, okay?

Bye. Thank you.

Yeah.

Oh, say bye-bye. Say bye-bye.

Bye-bye, Uncle roland.

So what does the best man do?

Oh, lots of things.

First you gotta stand
next to me up front,

have my back, make sure my
fly is not open or anything.

And you have to keep the
rings in your pocket

and give them to the
minister when he asks.

- Think you can do that?
- Easy.

Something smells good.

It's spaghetti.

Yum. Hey, guys.

I need to talk to dad
for a minute, okay?

So could you... - Okay. - Okay.

- What's up?
- Well, we found the perfect place...

beautiful gardens,
historical building.

Sounds great.

Yeah, well, it should be.
Take a look at these prices.

Wow. And this is the only
place available on Sunday?

Apparently, Charleston is

the number two wedding
destination in this country.

Who knew?

- Wow.
- Well, that's what I thought.

And add that to the
food and the band,

and I really think
we gotta face facts.

Let's do it.

Chase, it's ridiculous.

It's not ridiculous, Pamela.

Look, this is something the
kids are gonna remember

their whole lives,
and we will, too.

I want to do it.

Really?

Hey... You only get
married twice, right?

Book it.

You know I love you?

What? We lost the venue?

Well, Chase said yes,
so I called back again,

and it was too late.

The couple with cold feet?
Warmed up again.

Ugh! I hate those two.

Well, it's probably a
blessing in disguise.

It was so much money, Rox.

Okay, so what now?

Well, back to the courthouse.

Unh-unh. No way.

Every other place is booked.

We'll have it here.

What?

We'll close the place down.
It'll be so great.

We'll do tablecloths, flowers,
a little mood lighting.

Do not make me play
the Katie card.

Think of your poor little
disappointed daughter,

disgraced in front of
all of her friends...

Okay, okay, stop.

Katie will be really happy.

- Thanks, Rox.
- Are you kidding? I don't know why

I didn't think of having it
here in the first place.

Oh. Okay, I do.

But it'll be really great.

Okay. I'll let everyone know.

Okay. See ya.

Bye.

Trailer boy's dinner.

Got it.



Hey, boss.

Time for my shift.

Right.



Mornin'.

Kitchen's closed.

We're having a wedding,
and you are not invited.

All right.

Karen... Why aren't
the tablecloths down?

You told me to set
up the chairs.

After the tablecloths.

Sorry.

Ugh.

Okay, the wedding is off.

Whoa, whoa, whoa. What happened?

I have no dress.

What do you mean,
you have no dress?

- Well, not in South Carolina, anyway.
- Why not? Where is it?

The shop made a mistake.

They shipped my dress to
Charleston, West Virginia.

What?

- So I'm done.
- No, you're not.

- Roxy...
- We can deal with this.

Oh, yeah? How?

I-I don't know.

Give me a minute.

I came as soon as I could.
How's it going?

Well, we think the top part
of this one might work,

but we need something less
fitted on the bottom.

Okay, are you thinking
A-line or Ball skirt?

- Uh, Ball?
- Mm-hmm.

- Yeah?
- Guys, I appreciate your help,

but I am never gonna
fit in your clothes.

Oh, what about this one?

Ooh, pretty. Pamela, come here.
Yeah.

- What do you think?
- Yeah, that could work.

Can we take these off?

Yeah. Piece of cake.

You are insane. You
are not cutting up

- these beautiful dresses.
- You're right!

We are going to gently
rip out the seams.

Let me get my tape
measure and some pins.

I'm sorry I can't stay.

I have an appointment, but
take whatever you need.

- And we'll see you a the wedding,
- Uh-huh. Yeah.

- Bye.
- Bye. All right, Pamela,

- take your clothes off.
- What? I...

Moran, we can do this the easy way
or we can do this the hard way.

Okay.

- Okay.
- Ready?

Claudia Joy.

Hi, Dr. Robbins.

Appreciate you seeing
me on the weekend.

Not a problem. I was
on call anyway.

So what brings you in today?

I saw you, what, six months ago?

I've been having this
pain on my right side.

Where exactly?

Um, like in here.

Is it a sharp pain? Constant?

Uh, it's sharp, but,
no, not all the time.

Well, why don't you lie back?
And let's take a look.

Hello.

Hey, I got an update for you

- on specialist Cabrera.
- Oh, did you reach him?

Can we get him an
emergency leave?

Not that easy. His unit's
at a remote outpost.

I talked to his
chain of command.

They should be getting word to him today.
- Oh, good.

Michael, I am so worried.
The judge denied a stay.

We've got a week, and
I promised this woman

the Army would not let
her get deported.

Doing our best. I don't
want this happening

any more than you
do, believe me.

I gotta cut this short.
You okay otherwise?

Yeah. Of course.

Uh, just late getting ready
for, uh, Pamela's wedding.

That's right. Hey, give
'em my best, will you?

I will.

Love you.

I love you, too. Bye.

You ready?

Almost.

Wow.

Yeah?

Oh, yeah.

- Can you help?
- Yeah.

I can't get the clasp.

Done.

Thank you.

You're welcome.

Oh.

Somebody is gonna
want this back.

This is gonna sound funny...

But I miss the baby.

I do, too.

Roland?

Hmm?

- I've been thinking.
- Mm-hmm?

Maybe we shouldn't wait?

Haven't we had this
conversation before?

Look, I know what I said

about it not being the
right time and all,

but with my career, there's
never gonna be a right time.

You're preaching to
the choir, woman.

We both want to
have another child.

And the way Sara Elizabeth
took to Molly...

That was something, wasn't it?

Oh.

Of course, it would mean, uh,

more Mr. mom work for you...

Hey, I've never been afraid
of a little hard work.

And a real roll of the dice
for career-wise for me.

I like your odds, Colonel.

So do I.

No, no, don't worry about it.

Okay. Thanks anyway.

- That was the minister.
- He on his way?

The bridge is closed because of the storm.
- Oh, no.

- He can't make it.
- Unbelievable.

I swear, Pamela's head's gonna
explode when I tell her.

Excuse me, but, uh,
maybe I could help.

Yeah? How?

I'd be happy to officiate.

Are you a minister?

- Yes, sir.
- A real minister?

Ordained on the Internet

so I could perform
my sister's service.

Welcome aboard, padre.

I'll, uh, go brush up.

Uh... what do you say we keep
this between us for now?

- Good idea.
- Oh, yeah.

What did I tell you?

Everything's turning
out perfectly.

You have a strange definition
of the word "perfect."

Somebody order a wedding dress?

- Oh, let's see it.
- Should we ask how it went?

Well, I'm not gonna win
"Project Runway" anytime soon,

but I gotta admit...
It's pretty amazing.

- Oh.
- Oh, I knew it. See? Perfect.

Much better than any
Vera Wang knockoff.

Pamela Moran, do
not start crying.

I spent 20 minutes
on those eyes.

Thank you, guys.

Come on. Let's do this.

Yes.

Stop crying.















Oh, that's not good.

You have got to be kidding me!

Whit, open up!

Some storm, huh?

Power went out.

Yeah, I know. You
got a generator?

Yep.

- Well, will you get it?
- Now?

Yeah, now. We got a wedding.

All right.

- What's going on?
- Darn thing wouldn't start.

Guess the gas had been in there a
while, gummed up the fuel line,

- so I had to clean out the valve.
- Well, is it working now?

Oh, yeah. Purring like a kitten.

Okay, plug it in.

All right.

Aww.

Yeah.

Best wedding ever?

Well, hardest to forget, anyway.

Shall we?

We shall.

Guess I'll be going.

Oh, for Pete's sake.
Just sit down.

Uh, minister got stuck.

- Yeah, but...
- Completely legal.

I'm thinking we do
the short version.

Absolutely. Yeah.

Friends, the Bible tells us

that love always
trusts, always hopes,

always perseveres.

Today we gather here
to honor a family

that proves those
words are true.

Pamela Cathleen Moran,

do you take this man to be
your lawfully wedded husband,

to have and to hold
from this day forward,

as long as you both shall live?

I do.

Chase Roderick Moran,

do you take this woman to be
your lawfully wedded wife,

to have and to hold
from this day forward,

as long as you both shall live?

I do.

May I have the rings?

These rings are
an outward symbol

of an inward bond.

Please place the ring on her
finger and repeat after me.

With this ring, I thee wed.

With this ring, I thee wed.

Pamela.

With this ring, I thee wed.

By the grace of all that is Holy

and the power vested in me

I now pronounce you
husband and wife.

You may kiss the bride.

Whoo!

Mm.

Um...

Listen, you all know that I'm
not one to give speeches.

Except at home.

Right.

Um... well, first we want to thank...
our kids.

Lucas, you are the
best Best Man ever.

And, Katie, you are the most
beautiful Maid of Honor.

This was all really
Katie's idea.

Even though you wouldn't
listen to her at first.

May I make my speech, please?

Sorry.

Uh, I literally forgot
what I was gonna say.

- Here, let me.
- Aw.

Uh... a big thanks to
Roxy and her staff

for making this happen.

Whoo!

Uh, mostly, we just
want to thank you all

for being here and
for sticking with us

while we found our way
back to each other.

I guess, uh...

the most important thing
that I've learned

in the last year

is that there is nothing
more important than family.

And we are never gonna
be apart again.

Right now...

I feel like the luckiest guy
on the face of the earth.

How about it, Rox?

Wanna dance?

Uh, no.

Ah, come on.

I remember how much
you like to two-step.



Okay. Just one dance.

You got it. But
remember, I lead.



You okay?

Fine. Yeah. Why?

Uh, you've just
been quiet tonight.

I'm tired. Big case at work.

Okay.

Oh, all this happiness
makes me...

Think of Jeremy and Tanya.

I know.

May I have the
honor of escorting

one of you fine ladies
around the floor?

- Claudia Joy?
- No, you go.

- Are you sure?
- Yes.

I would be honored, sir.



Ah.

We've been through all the
precedents, Claudia Joy and...

I-I don't think
they're gonna help.

What's wrong?

I was having some pain,

and I went to my doctor.

She found a mass.
