- When Jamie gets to her dad's office, his secretary tells her that she can't go in yet—he's on an important phone call and it's a big no-no to interrupt him. Sigh.
- Finally Jamie is allowed to go in.
- When she gets inside, she notices all her dad's medals and plaques on the wall.
- He tells her that he'll take her home, right away; whatever she came to talk to him about can wait.
- Um, no. Jamie's been waiting for an answer from him, and she's not about to throw that away.
- Bam—she slams her hand down on the desk.
- The Colonel is shocked. He's never seen Jamie act like this before.
- She starts firing off questions at him faster than he can answer them.
- Is Hollister in Vietnam? Why did he sign the order? Couldn't he stop it?
- Her dad says something cryptic about one dead son being enough, but won't say any more. They have to get home—now. Scoot.
- What's the rush? Her brother is missing in Vietnam. No one knows where he is.
- It takes a while for Jamie to realize what's going on, and then she's not totally sure what this news means; all she knows is that her brother might be dead or in trouble. They go home together.
