One night my last month in Afghanistan another medic, this guy Doug, and me went out with a squad of rangers. I followed a platoon into the enemy's position just to see if there was anybody alive. Anyway, we went into this... this bunker, this cave... and there was all these bodies, and they were all dead. Except for this one guy who two minutes ago was trying to kill me. I mean, his eyes were just staring at me. Not mean, though, just like... just like, help me. I was staring right at him, and... I didn't do anything. I let him die, Tommy, I mean he was a human being, and I just let him die. So I don't want to do this for you, I want to do this for me. I owe a life.

[Kevin and Kitty are having coffee at an outdoor cafe.]
You're the lying whore of the family!
And you're the stuck-up bitch!
Look, I love you guys more than anything in the whole world, and I've been doing a lot of thinking over the last few days. I can't just sit here and let these people tear apart my family like this. God, Kitty, they almost killed you.
No, Justin, I'm fine, I'm here now, it's okay.
I know, okay, but the same thing could happen tomorrow, or they could do something even worse. It's just not right.
Justin, what's the matter?
Nothing's the matter... I enlisted today.
Hi, Scotty, it's... it's Kevin, your least favorite Martian. Look, I've been on your planet for 34 years, and I still get a lot of things wrong. Like about money and work and people and life and... love and everything. Anyway, I just wanted you to know I think you're amazing, and funny, and cute as hell, and I just hope that some day... maybe, I don't know, three Martian years from now, 'cause our years are longer than yours, maybe I could be worthy of your human love and respect. Whether we're together or not. That's all.
So I have an interview with Senator McCallister but then when I come back I'd love to help.
Oh Kitty, sweetie-pie I don't know how to say this delicately but I'm not cremating anything.
You know I am an excellent cook, in fact some people even call me a chef.
Some with a really good sense of humor.
You're both crazy. I enlisted because I wanted to. I went back and forth about a thousand times in my head before I went, and nothing anyone said or did was going to change my mind. It was the best and worst decision I have made in my entire life, but you know what, it was my choice. So I'm not gonna fight the recall. I'm going back.
Mistakes were made. President Ronald Reagan said those words twenty years ago in a time when admitting a mistake was perceived as a sign of strength, not weakness. I made a mistake. I made a mistake in compromising the interview that you're about to see, and I made a mistake in continuing to defend a war that is in desperate need of reexamination. Reexamination which cannot come until we acknowledge that the war itself was a mistake.
So wait, we're not having Christmas? Well, that sucks!
We are having Christmas and Hanukkah. Both. Bells, whistles, latkas, ornaments, carols, the works.
I think it's great. I think it's great that we're finally embracing our multiculturalism. Uncle Saul will be in heaven. Wait a minute, Martha Stewart has Hanukkah recipes?
I don't want to be Jewish; I thought we are Jewish.
We're secular humanists, honey.
Secu-what?
Okay, Mrs Sartre, that's enough.
[to Holly] I came here to forgive you. From the bottom of my heart. William was a strong and generous man, and he always took care of the people he loved. The thing is, he loved two women. It's as simple as that.
We talked twice, once on camera for about, probably twenty minutes. I don't even buy shoes without walking around in them longer than that.
You see these shoes? I bought them on the Internet. Sight unseen, never had a problem. I'm a very good judge of quality, Ms. Walker, and of how things are going to fit.
Did you just compare me to shoes?
You started it.
Well, who knows. Maybe we'll be friends some day.
Maybe. But not today.
This guy is messing with my head. In the 'Gay' column I have: Flirting, giving me shoes, Lola the pug. And in the 'Straight' column I have: Girlfriend, Lakers and uses the words dude and bro.
Okay, we've parked at Inspiration Point so you can bitch about your job?
CBChad Barry
I thought we were friends.
I don't know what we are, Chad. You give me shoes, you admire my body, and, you know, I'm sorry, taking a drive up to a beautiful location, regardless of category, is a date. I mean, come on man, driving me all the way up here? You're either going to hack me into a million little pieces or you're gonna kiss me!
CBChad Barry
Well, I'm not a serial killer. So...
[Kevin and Tommy have hidden the alcohol because Justin is out of rehab.]
Where did they hide the booze? Tell me, really, I'm not joking.
Nora, if I knew where it was I'd be drunk by now
