Army Wives · Season 4, Episode 3
“Homefront” · Season 4, Episode 3
In this episode: Roxy LeBlanc (2), 2nd Lieutenant Trevor LeBlanc (2), Finn (2), TJ (2), Claudia Joy Holden (1)
Mommy is pregnant.
[TJ and Finn look at her and Trevor]
Wow. Come on. Your mom's having a baby!
[unenthusiastically] Really?
Why??
Uh...because...we thought it would be fun for you guys to have a little baby brother or baby sister?
[Still no reaction from the boys]
Congratulations Claudia Joy. Looks like you win it all. Again.
This was never about winners or losers.
Noble to the end. How endearing.
You know, Lenore. With all you've accomplished, I honestly don't understand how you can be such a miserable person.
Excuse me?
Only someone intensely unhappy could be so petty and vindictive. It's not enough for you to succeed, others have to fail. I don't get it. What could you possibly want that you don't already have? Prestige, a successful husband, friends....
Friends? I don't have friends. I have followers. They either fear me or want something from me. You have friends.
Well, you know why, Lenore? It's no great secret. I don't expect anything other than friendship in return. It's not a political calculation to me. It's really simple. To have a friend you need to be one first.
Thank you for that. [gets up] I'll have to have it embroidered on a pillow someday. Right next to my Girls Scout handbook. Goodbye, Claudia Joy. [walks out]
TJ did it.
You were there too.
I told you not to.
No you didn't!
All your mom and I wanna know is why.
You never asked us if we wanted a new baby.
Yeah.
[surprised] What?
Go ahead, TJ.
You're gonna love the new baby more than us because it's really yours and we're not.
Buddy, is that what you think?
It's true.
No, no it's not.
It isn't?
No.
We saw at the park playing with that baby.
[takes a deep breath] Look, guys. Maybe I wasn't there when you were born. But for me, you two are mine and you're always gonna be mine. No matter what. Ok?
Ok
See, it doesn't matter if somebody is your birth parent or not. All that matters is that they love you. And your dad and I love you so very much.
And you need to know that there's a lot of love inside every person. It's just not something that gets used up and then there's no more.
When this new baby comes, there's gonna be just so much more love in this house.
You mean like when we got Lucky?
Yeah. Like when we got Lucky.
