Jackie, Denise and others in “True Colors”

Did you hear about that Bravo Company FRG meeting?

You mean the great doughnut meltdown? It was all over post.

Bad situation.

Poor Min-Ji. She's always had trouble with that FRG but it happens sometimes. Bad chemistry.

I don't believe in bad chemistry. I believe in good leadership.

I wouldn't judge Min-Ji too harshly. This isn't her native culture and, well, it's hard to wrangle a bunch of self-absorbed twenty-year-old's.

I agree, but the fact is, they need a new FRG leader. Somebody to "kick butt" and take names. Know anyone?

[thinks] Actually...I do.

FRG leader??? Me?

Why not? You'd make a great leader.

Shark bait, you mean. You should've been there, Denise. They ate that poor woman alive.

I know. It's not the easiest group.

Are you kidding?! They're horrible!

They just need to be led.

Yeah. Off a cliff! What about Captain Brunson's wife?

Erm...Captain Brunson is between wives. That's why Min-Ji took the job. Her husband is the XO.

Well, who's like, "assistant XO"?

There is no "assistant XO". The next in line are platoon leaders and that's you. You're an officer's wife, Roxy. That means more responsibility.

Yes. I get it. Look, I would love to help. But with the kids and The Hump Bar––

I will help. And so will Jackie. She really wants to meet you, by the way.

Yeah. Well, I don't want to meet her.

Oh come on. I know you got a bad first impression but she's a great person. And she could be an important contact for you. [Roxy looks at her curiously] Being an FRG leader could help Trevor's career.

Hmm, hadn't thought about that. [looks at Denise] You really think I could do it?

[smiles] I know you can. And right now, the Army needs you.

Wow, that's something I never expected to hear.
