she complimented for her 'f' in history with an 'a' in shoplifting. well, you tried. you failed miserably, but you tried. maybe because you taught her never to speak to strangers. i'm sorry. that wasn't fair. i've got patients waiting. try again, jon. she hates you -- but she needs you. jon -- what is it? is it -- him? it's. it's over? i was dreaming. i'm not sure. you were flying this weird old stunt plane. doing flips. walking on the wings. i was watching from the ground -- when you fell. you had a parachute, but you wouldn't open it. no. i don't know. maybe because you've never needed my help. maybe i did. . maybe i didn't. it's all right, jon. and you wouldn't be. things will get better now that you're home. everything will be better -- now that. that man is finally out of our lives. oh, god -- you're going on assignment again. you said you'd be here! you promised! what could be more important than that? you want me to tell you it's okay to leave? okay, go on! go! i suppose it was only a matter of time before you forgot where we lived. so what happened to your 'important' assignment? i know exactly what you always tell me: absolutely nothing. i've got surgery. don't try to charm me -- i'm still angry. there're leftovers in the fridge. what is with you? no. why do i feel like i'm on a blind date? 'unpredictable'? you're about as unpredictable as the tide. how long are you going to be gone this time? isn't that what all this is about? the wine, cooking me dinner -- your next assignment? you always say that -- then you leave. jon, that's not true -- your what? jon. that's wonderful. last night, i thought -- this isn't my husband. then i woke up in the middle of the night -- and found you passed out in the study. jon, you know what day it is. i know it's difficult for you, but we still have to go. 'protect and serve' later. you're going. i don't know. they're about the same ages we were when we met. remember the all-night dentist? aren't you going to get that? jon -- this is hardly the time or place. happy birthday, matty. he took our baby, jon. he took our little boy. how did this happen, sweetie? get child services down here -- and don't let her father leave. jon? hello? who is this? whoever you are -- don't call again. i know you -- you're the one who called. you're castor troy. you killed my son -- how did he expect to do that? not tonight. i'm way behind in my continuing ed. -- yes. what memorial service? oh, my god. of course not. what was what? probably a mosquito -- i'll close the window. there's been an emergency at the hospital. fine. but please don't wake my husband. he's exhausted. please be o-neg. please. i took it from my fake husband. i don't know that. maybe jon's already dead. tell me. tell me about the all- night dentist. christ, jon! how could you put us in this position? do you know -- do you know what he did to me? but you're damn well going to try. first -- how are we going to get you out of this? this will knock him out for hours. he doesn't tell me anymore than you ever did. all i know is -- tomorrow we're going to victor's memorial service. jon -- you can't think about that now. he's taking jamie and me away. saint mary's-by-the-sea. what are you going to do? what else can i do? i can cover for jamie. but if i'm not there, he'll suspect something. the second you make your move, all hell's going to break loose. if i'm there beside him -- i can take charge. i'm his wife, remember? there's no way around it -- for once, you need me. jon -- what are the odds? it'll happen. only when we're golfing. jon! what are you doing here? didn't the police tell you? there was an emergency. jon -- stop it! mr. alandro is very ill! it's my fault. i should've woken you up before i left. now please let me get back to work. that's what i'd like to know. she stole fifty dollars from my purse and took off. don't act so stunned, jon. you know how hard it is to get that girl into a dress. good. because i am fed up. checks her watch. barely lifting her eyes away. wanda -- i need to talk to you. never mind -- why is he here? jamie? jamie! wanda, i've got to tell you something. something crazy. hang on, jon. they're bringing in their top surgical team from no life signs at all. he's a turnip. but he's my husband! i hope so, honey. how was your first day back? jon?
