for a couple hours?

Yeah.

Sure can.

All right.

I got some bacon here.

It's you and me today, zo.

And Jax.

And the Jax-man. Got it.

I was thinking...

My mom could babysit tonight,

and we could go

to the speedway.

You know I like that.

Hey.

I'm gonna stop

by the golf course later,

see if they need any greensmen.

Okay.

What?

It's a kid's job.

Same job I had before.

You were just in charge

of a dozen men,

and now you're gonna mow grass?

Hey, could you

turn that off, zo?

No.

All right.

Got one chocolate chip

smiley face pancake for you.

I hate chocolate.

You do?

- Yes, silly bum-bum.

- Hey.

She doesn't like chocolate.

Okay.

I guess I missed that part.

What else?

Anything else that I missed?

Here you go, specialist.

What are you taking

the somex for?

It was to sleep over there.

And what about the Propranolol?

Yeah, don't think

i was taking that.

Are you bothered

by racing thoughts?

No, sir.

Reliving past events?

Not really.

Any lapse in memory?

Well, I lose stuff sometimes.

You mean you misplace things?

Yeah, or things

i was gonna do or...

Trying to remember if I did.

How about mood swings?

No.

When you were hit with the ied,

did you experience discharge

from the ears?

I just want to get back

to my unit.

The company physician

at rustamiyah documented

complaints consistent

with traumatic brain injury.

I feel good.

I'm ready to go back.

Do you want a blow job?

Right here?

If it'll make you feel better.

Don't underestimate me.

I'm tougher than you are,

so you don't have

to spare me the details

'cause you think

i can't take it.

I can take anything you can.

Anything but quiet.

It was just different

this time.

Different how?

This one felt a lot longer.

Towards the end, things took

a turn and got really bad.

Were you with doster

when he died?

No. I wasn't there.

Sometimes they go a little

crazy when we're gone, right?

You just got to give her

a minute.

It's not like

she packed a bag, dude.

She cleaned me out.

I got to figure this out,

you know?

Well, can we see

that nudie video, then?

Such a dog.

What, you got a video, shoe?

She's hot, man.

- I will f*** you up.

- You promise?

I swear, it's like, the whole

time you're out there,

all you want to do

is come home.

Come home, and home

is just f***ed, you know?

Hey, you had a rough landing,

buddy.

Yeah, f***ing crash landing.

I got to make some money.

That video, bro.

You serious?

I'll give you 20 bucks for it.

- You, too, shoe? Yeah?

- Yeah... 20 bucks.

Hey, maybe I'll just redeploy

with you, solo,

stack checks for nine months,

you know?

Hey, I tell you what,

i f***ing love you, man. Okay?

But you're a bomb magnet.
