Ok. so somebody needs to fill in the gaps for me. I was indisposed last night so I wasn't around to figure out that Something stupid delayed all the shows. I'm sure it was infinitely important, but I got to see the first 5-7 minutes of the Unit and the last 30 (or so). So I missed the scene where he told her what he really did for a living.

Is there a place (iTunes or something else) where I can download last night's episode?

He pretty much told the truth. Special ops branch of the military that doesn't officially exist.

And he also sent her to talk/booze up with Tiffy and Kim about the life of a Unit wife. I can't remember if that was in the last 30 min or not. :)

So what if she decided to walk away instead of come back? isnt that a risk that would have to be eliminated? And so do know she's really not 'one of the bad guys?" :)

ms blaine wasnt a happy camper with the drinking. But what can you do? I still think it sounds like the woman knew where her hubby was. They left that ambiguous.

I guess good call not taking the chopper eh? That was a bit too neat for me and the preaching by jonas sounded like a branda hampton ep :)

Well in the scenes to next week...

It looks like the crazy chick (rich girl) is confronting Mrs. Snake Doctor about being investigated

Has anyone noticed that all the men on this show have daughters? I just found that odd when I was watching. It's like the original writers thought that there was too much testosterone in the main leads so they had to have more females to balance it out.

One of Bob and Kim's kids is a boy. Not that we ever see them. :)

As laria mentions, one of the Brown clan is a boy and it was specifically addressed by Molly Blane around the time that they were first pregnant with him. Something to the effect of "let's hope for a boy for a unit that only seems to have girls."

Not sure if this is at all mirror of real life - can't recall anything about this from Haney's book...

I didn't catch who wrote this episode, but I found the dialogue to be especially Mametesque.
