Calm down, sweetheart. I am sure Denise didn't mean to hurt your feelings.
Maybe not. Just that FRG Nazi Jackie Clarke. Wants everyone to be her little clone.
I wouldn't be too hard on Jackie either.
Because I happen to agree with her.
Not you, too. What does my hem line have to do with being an FRG leader??
A lot, actually. [Roxy looks at her in frustration] Things change when your husband becomes an officer, Roxy.
Yeah. Your friends think you're an embarrassment.
This isn't about you. This is about being part of something that's bigger than you. An officer's uniform commands respect. Same thing being an officer's wife. How you dress makes a statement.
You know, I didn't sign up for the Army. Trevor did.
[smiles understandingly] That doesn't cut it and you know it. When you married Trevor, you married into the Army.
Yeah, well, I never saw this coming.
[...]
Whatever you decide, don't let the prospect of a longer dress or shorter heels stop you.
You'll always be the same Roxy underneath. Nothing can change that, thank God.
[Roxy is dressing up for the encasing ceremony]
[whistles] Lookin' good, babe.
[grins] Hard to believe it's really you.
[glares at him] What is that supposed to mean???
[stunned] Nothing...uh..it was...it was a compliment.
You didn't like the way I looked before?
All I meant was...I'm just, you know, not used to seeing you this way. [awkwardly] Can I take the boot out of my mouth now?
Well, it's still the same me underneath. You wanna see?
[Trevor walks in to find Roxy staring at the wall]
I'm thinking pale lemon would look nice in here. What do you think?
[shrugs] Yeah, I like lemon.
[rolls eyes] You're a big help.
[looks up at Roxy] What? You asked my opinion.
I just want the house to look nice.
You know what I mean. "Befitting an officer".
So? How did it go with Cruz's wife?
She wouldn't let me in the door.
[shocked] You're kidding.
That woman is a bitch on wheels. You should tell your soldier he'd be better off without her.
[unamused] You're hilarious.
I don't know. What are you making?
You got two hands. What'cha do before you married me?
[smiles] We're having chicken.
[smiles] Get over here. [pulls Gloria over for a hug]
[They kiss before Gloria pushes him off]
That is so nasty! Go take a shower and take this crap with you! [points to his rucksack]
[laughs] All right, all right, tranquilla .
[seriously] Don't tranquilla me. Did you tell your boss we were having problems?
He sent his wife here to check in on me.
Mrs. LeBlanc was here? What did she say?
Nothing. I didn't let her in.
[shocked] You're joking, right? [Gloria says nothing] Lieutenant LeBlanc is my platoon leader!
Well, I don't need his wife sticking her nose in our business!
[Gloria walks into The Hump Bar and sees Roxy behind the counter]
You? What are you doing here?
I own the place. [smiles] What are you doing here?
Had to get out of the apartment.
Beer? First one's on the house. It's my door-in-the-face special.
So, you've been married less than a month.
[looks at Gloria] You're kidding.
I was tired of living at home with my brothers and sisters. I saw this home movie An Officer and a Gentleman , you know?
[grins] Yeah, I know. Very romantic.
Right? So I started looking on these military dating sites. There he was in uniform, looking hot.
Chatted online, went dancing when he came into the city. He opened the taxi door for me. [smiles wistfully] I'll never forget that. On our second date he proposed. [looks at Roxy] Stupid, right?
Well, I met Trevor when I was bartending. Four days later, he proposed.
Uh-hmm. It's worked out so far.
My son has tremendous courage. You don't see all the medicine he has to take to keep his viral load down. And you don't see him getting sick and nauseated. He didn't feel sorry for himself. He just lives with it. We could all learn from courage like that. Look, everyone lives with an element of risk in their lives but we don't have to live with ignorance and fear. And we don't have to punish an eleven-year-old boy because we're too narrow-minded to know better.
S6 E7 System Failure
[The adults are watching the boys play catch with eggs]
Hoping those eggs are hard-boiled.
Oh they are. Believe me, Roxy doesn't want anything messing up her new home.
Thanks. She's been taking her time putting stuff up on the walls, says she wants a "new look". You know what that means.
She told me she was eyeing on some new furniture.
[...]
[off camera]
S6 E8 Casualties
It's your first deployment. You'll get through it.
Apparently by coming here and bugging me.
How much longer Sergeant?
As long as it takes, Cruz. It's only been twenty minutes.
Yeah, feels like an hour.
I'm trying but this kid is pointing his AK at me like he's about to light me up.
[...]
So what do we know about this negotiator they're sending?
She's a Captain in intelligence.
[in disbelief] She? Oh yeah...good luck with that.
M Maryanne
Look, I feel bad, don't get me wrong. But I don't think we should be going overboard.
M Maryanne
Min-Ji did this to herself. I don't know why we should be honoring her exactly. [Gloria looks at her in disgust]
I can't believe that you'd say that. What is wrong with you? Min-Ji was part of this group.
Maybe that's because some people wouldn't let her be part of it
R Rita
Hey, don't blame us!
G Gisela
Shame on you! How dare you sit there and judge. Do you what it takes to marry a soldier and leave your country behind? Your family? Do you have any idea what it feels like to be different? I do. I know how cruel people can be. I still hear the jokes, the whispers. I know the difference just what friends can make. Were we too busy, too special to reach out to Min-Ji? We should all should feel ashamed. She needed help and we weren't there for her. Tomorrow I could be the one who needs help, or maybe it could be you.
BH Dr. Blake Hanson
So why did you enlist, Gabriel?
Usual. College benefits, transportable skill, serve my country. You?
H Hanson
Pay off my med school loans.
H Hanson
Hey, I'm not that cold. I wanted to be a pediatrician.
H Hanson
My older brother died of leukemia when I was twelve. I always wanted to do something for him. Doesn't pay the bills though. When I was doing my residency I realized that I was going to be in debt until my 40's if I didn't do something. The Army offered me a good deal. I give them ten years, they pay off the loans. The only catch was, they needed ER physicians at the time, not pediatricians.
You can always make the switch when your contract's up.
H Hanson
Yeah, that's six years from now.
[Roxy and Gloria are getting ready for their husbands' return]
This won't be like the usual homecoming. Normally we have a big blow-out with music and food and banners and all that stuff. But we couldn't do that on such short notice.
Hey, as long as they're coming home, I'm happy. Thanks for giving me a ride to the pick-up spot
No problem. Actually, it's assembly point, not "pick-up spot".
[Gloria sprays perfume on herself, Roxy looks at her]
Really? Can I smell it? [smells bottle] Do you mind?
Wow. Someone's been busy.
Yeah, Hector and I had a little fun at the mall.
It's not that much. Couple of tops, some jeans. Yeah, got something to show you. [takes out a stiletto shoe] What do you think of these?
Yeah, you don't think they're too much?
Are we talking money or style?
That's what I thought. I got Hector a little present too.
[Gloria takes out a pink lingerie top]
I don't think that will fit him.
Come on, I've got something else to show you.
[Gloria takes Roxy outside. Camera shot reveals Hector and a red Ram Pickup.]
We got a great deal on it.
[excitedly] Ok, baby. It's time for your next lesson.
Hector's teaching me to drive.
[surprised] You don't know how??
Hey, in The Bronx you take the subway. See you later!
[Roxy cringes as the Ferrari (with Gloria driving) stutters and veers off to the main road.]
N Nicole
[embarrassed] You didn't have to get champagne.
Of course I did. [toasts Nicole] To my Bronze Star winner.
N Nicole
It's "Bronze Star recipient".
Don't give me attitude! This is a big deal!
N Nicole
No, I know. It's just embarrassing. You know me, I like flying under the radar.
Yeah I do know. But this time you couldn't help it. You were just too damn good.
N Nicole
[smiles] I guess so.
Face it, girl. You are a hell of a soldier!
