Army Wives: Wait, So Kevin Is The Bad Guy?

Army Wives: Wait, So Kevin Is The Bad Guy?

A lot went down on “Army Wives” last night . . . where to begin?

Claudia Joy is still out of town recovering. However we learned she reached out to Jackie, and they have made peace and agreed to start over when CJ returns. After an incident in a restaurant where her purse tipped over, Denise began to worry about Jackie having a prescription medication addiction. Jackie of course denied any problem, but as the show progressed, she popped more and more pills. We learned everything we apparently knew from Audrey (Susan) was false. Kevin was the hard ass, the workaholic. He put his career first, over their marriage. Jackie had been popping pills to deal with his increasingly demanding career. I am not sure how I feel about this. I don’t think I can bring myself to like Jackie!

Nicole and Charlie were invited by Joan and Roland for dinner. Nicole had always had trouble living out and open, even now that “Don’t Ask Don’t Tell” had been abandoned. However after dinner with a very supportive Roland and Joan, she was ready to do so, even proposing to Charlie. Meanwhile, Nicole had been nominated for the Bronze Star. Kevin’s right hand man told him that Nicole was gay, and apparently there is a belief that Kevin is against gays serving in the military. Joan had heard of comments Kevin supposedly made against lifting the ban, which she told to Roland. His assistant must have heard the same thing, and came to Kevin with a plan to basically de-nominate her on a technicality. Kevin however ripped him a new one, saying Nicole was an exemplarily soldier, that she saved many lives, and the U.S. government says he is not to discriminate and he will not. Hurray for Kevin! However we don’t know if he’s doing this because he’s a man who follows regulations, or because of what he believes. What does Kevin believe? I hope this is clarified.

Gloria and Hector got themselves into money troubles. They spent spent spent, and did not think of the consequences. They didn’t even know how to balance a checkbook and make a budget! Roxy and Trevor stepped in to help them out and get them back on track. At the end of the show Roxy also offered Gloria a job at the bar, because she needed help and Gloria had a great report with the cliental.

Tonya faced off with the doctor at the hospital that she kissed in the field. He broke things off, saying he was a major and she was enlisted, there was to be no fraternization between ranks. He had been treating her horribly since they got back, and she avoided him at all costs because of it. When she couldn’t take the treatment anymore, she let him have it verbally . . . he let her have it with a kiss. They soon ended up in bed, but agreed it could never happen again. Yeah, we know it will, and it will lead to trouble!

By the end of the show, the Shhhh hit the fan. Frank had been having nightmares through the whole episode about the orphans they left behind. A news story broke that exactly what the American aid worker told them would happen, happened. The orphan edge was raided, several children killed and others are missing. The worker fled with the smallest she could carry. Now Kevin, who commanded the mission, is under fire. I think we can say that this basically means Kevin’s third star won’t happen and Michael will get it. More pills for Jackie?

  2. I’m not sure actually! I know there was an article a few weeks back with Kim Delaney addressing that incident.
