Army Wives, Season 1

[Inside the LeBlanc home]

Pamela:
Marilyn is having an affair, and you waited until now to tell me?

Roxy:
Well, excuse me, but I worked until midnight last night.

Pamela:
Well, my phone works twenty-four hours a day! And so does my front door!

[...]

Trevor:
So do you have any advice for me?

Chase:
My first deployment, I didn't know what to expect. There was a Major in my unit. A married guy, been on a lot of tours. He told me not to contact my family. Said the less I talked to them, the less I'd miss them and it would make it easier for me to get through. I called home only called four, five times in six months. My son was two weeks old when I learned he was born. The Major was right. It did make it easier. For me.

Trevor:
[looks at Roxy, who is in the kitchen with Pamela] Four five times in six months? [shakes head] I don't think I could do that Roxy.

[Camera cuts back to kitchen]

Pamela:
We can't tell anyone.

Roxy:
Wait, why not? [lowers her voice] I was gonna tell Trevor. I mean, he knows her husband.

Pamela:
Nah, you can't do that. Maybe in civilian life you could, if someone's cheating. But not here. We have to protect each other. Even if it's Marilyn. You still have to protect another soldier's wife. It's our code.

[Camera cuts back to Chase and Trevor]

Chase:
You asked for my advice, right?

Trevor:
Yeah.

Chase:
Well, here it is. [pauses] You call her every minute you can. I hurt Pamela a lot. Don't hurt your girl.
