I love baby showers!
They should come with a warning: babies grow up.

[Joan brings out a fresh plate of burgers Roland has just barbecued, the kids scramble for the burgers]
Woah, woah, one at a time!
[observing] Animals.
Kids.
Same thing.
[A sleep-deprived and exhausted Trevor walks over to Roland at the barbecue grill]
[yawn] Morning.
Hey Trevor.
[amused] It's afternoon.
Right. Sorry we're late.
[laughs, to Roland] Give this man a cheese burger.
I think caffeine's a better call!
How about a nap?
[smiles] Sorry.
Hey, you knew the job was dangerous when you took it.
Yeah but nobody told me how dangerous.
Welcome to the club, dad.
You guys need me? I gotta head up to PX. We're out of diapers and....a few million other things.
You're relieved of duty, Lieutenant.
[relieved] Thanks.
I will bring the boys home when this is over.
[looks at Denise] Really?
Go! Go!
[Trevor heaves a huge sigh of relief and leaves]
[watches Trevor leave] Been there.
Hey, I'm still there.
I was hoping it would work out. But you two were so young and you barely knew each other when you got married.
Yeah, but neither did you and Trevor.
Well, we were older, more experienced anyway. I already had one marriage and two kids and Trevor had been in the Army for a while.
True.
Hey, you make a mistake. You learn from it. Then you move on. In the meantime, you've got your work and you've got your friends.
Look, about that. I know you've been counting on me to look after The Hump and all but...
[Baby starts crying over the baby monitor]
Trevor!
[from upstairs] I got it!
Thanks babe.
Please don't hate me, Roxy
Hate you for what?
I want to go back to New York
Oh, for how long?
I don't know. Forever, maybe? I really miss my family.
Don't even think about it.
Really?
I totally get it.
What about you? And the bar and the babies?
[smiles] You know what, we'll figure it out.
[Michael notifies Frank that he is up for the Soldier's Medal]
You deserve it, Frank. You showed everyone what the Army is all about.
It's just what we do for each other, sir.
But you did it for me.
[nods] Gladly.
We've walked a long road together haven't we?
That we have, sir. Good times and bad.
Welcome back, sir.
It's good to be back, Sergeant.
Look like hell, sir.
I feel like hell, Sergeant.
[chuckles] Those babies are kickin' your ass, huh?
Big time.
Hope you've got enough gas left in the tank for the platoon. We're bivouacking at Range 28 tomorrow afternoon.
Outstanding. Four hours of uninterrupted sleep on cold dark ground sounds awfully good to me right now.
Roger that, sir!

Hey babe, what are you doing home at this hour? [Trevor motions for her to sit down] Honey I've got like a million things to do this morning.
Just sit down.
[sits down] Ok, this is either very good news or very bad news.
It's both. My order just came in. I've been assigned 2nd Ranger Battalion at Fort Lewis.
[pauses] Is that the good part?
It is.
[smiles] Well, congratulations, babe. You deserve it.
Thank you.
What's the bad part?
[takes a deep breath] We report to Tacoma in thirty days. [no reaction from Roxy] Rox?
[nonchalantly] We can do that.
[surprised by her reaction] What?
I thought you were gonna say two weeks or something.
[still in shock] Really?
Yeah! We knew this day was coming. So, now it's here. No more guessing.
[looks at Roxy in astonishment, at a loss for words] Right....right...it's just moving the boys and the dog and everything we own three thousand miles away––
[cuts Trevor off] Are you trying to make me crazy?
[stops short] No, no. I'm just trying to figure out if it's you or the sleep deprivation talking and you know what? I don't wanna know.
[smiles] Can you get your butt outta here before I wake up?
Yes ma'am. [kisses Roxy on the forehead and quickly leaves]
FFinn
[sadly] I hate the Army.
Honey, don't say that. You're very proud of your father and everything he does to serve our country. The Army just comes at a cost, that's all. You're old enough to understand that.
A measure of leadership is how a unit performs when the leader isn't present.
S6 E22Domestic Maneuvers
Sir, I was wondering if you'd like to join us tonight for a home-cooked meal.
Oh, that's awfully nice of you
Denise and Claudia Joy have been talking and, well, her intell is that you're not much of a cook.
[Michael stares at Frank]
[laughs] That's your wife's words, sir!
