Last Man Standing Page #2

Synopsis: Mike Baxter is the marketing director for an iconic outdoor sporting goods store. He loves to have adventures while he's traveling for work and, of course, he drives a pick-up truck. While Mike is king of the hill at work, he's the odd man out in a home that is dominated by women -- namely his wife, Vanessa, and their three daughters, 20- year-old Kristin, 17-year-old Mandy and 13-year-old Eve. After being a stay-at-home mom for years, Vanessa recently returned to the workplace and was quickly promoted (much to the dismay of her primarily male co-workers). As a result of Vanessa's increased work load, Mike is pulled into more hands-on parenting than ever before.

The soldier Samuel

served his country...

with dignity, honor,

and bravery.

Twice decorated,

he represented

the best of the best.

Samuel the husband

was kind and thoughtful.

His wife, Pauline, tells me

he was a man of few words...

who spoke volumes

with his loving gestures.

The father, never was a man

so proud to be a father.

Although their time

together was cut short

Jeremy.

Abby.

Nice to see you again.

Man. You, too.

...like his father.

You're Abby.

I recognize you

from your picture.

He talked about you.

I'm Pauline.

Hey. You're handsome,

just like your dad.

I'm so sorry, Pauline.

I understand

you live in Alexandria.

Yeah.

I'm sorry

we never had you over.

Hey, if you need anything,

anything at all,

just call me,

all right? Anytime.

Thank you, Abby.

Come on.

Walk with me?

Why would he kill himself

eight years after the fact?

Well, Pratt never got over...

getting kicked

out of the military.

They didn't kick us out.

All right, we were

honorably discharged,

but I don't care

what they call it.

The military

was Pratt's life.

He had a child.

Man, I should have called him

once or twice over the years.

I should have done something.

I see you're still blaming

yourself for everything.

Look, Abby, let it go, okay?

Look at you now.

You're a regular soccer mom.

You got the hubby.

You got the kid.

You got it all.

Are you happy?

Yes.

He must be one hell of a guy.

He is. Yeah.

You both are.

God, every day I'm reminded

of how lucky I am.

I'm in the PTA.

You're in the PTA?

And I love it.

All right,

the girl's going rogue.

Yeah.

Well, speaking of family,

I got to get going.

Yeah, yeah, yeah,

I understand.

Well, look,

if you want to talk,

I'll be in town

until tomorrow night.

I'm staying at

the Alexandria Hotel.

Let's not keep the wall up.

Okay.

It's good to see you.

You, too.

Okay.

All right.

Hi,

you've reached my cell phone.

Please leave a message.

Hey, baby.

I just wanted to tell you...

that I love you and

I'm sorry about last night.

Let's talk tonight

about everything.

Hi, Heather.

Is my husband there?

I'm sorry, Mrs. Collins.

He left early today.

What time did he leave?

I guess it was around noon.

Noon?

I was at lunch,

so I'm not exactly sure.

Okay. Thanks, Heather.

Hi,

you've reached my cell phone.

Please leave a message.

Nick, please call me

when you get this.

Daddy's gonna miss

pancakes for dinner.

We should wait for him.

I'm sure he'll be home soon.
