No smiles for miles.ĭuring a briefing, Sarah explains the situation to her fellow soldiers and emphasizes that the soldiers killed in action were trained and ready, but this unfortunate event was a matter of chance. The gravity of the situation hits when the entire base stands still for a moment of prayer, whether someone’s standing on a flight of stairs, in the middle of the grocery store, or in line at the post office. Throughout the episode, we see just how much rage Danny truly contains within himself. From what can be gathered from previous episodes, the main emotion that Danny seems to express-quite well and uninhibitedly-is anger. The camera closes in on Danny’s fist, as he snaps a pencil with the force of his grip. Danny (Spence Moore II) fully understands the situation without needing a word to be said. Caitlin (Jordan Kristine Seamón) receives a text that reveals that Craig was one of the soldiers killed in action and collapses to the floor out of grief. Britney (Francesca Scorsese) rushes in, distraught and in tears.

The flags of each deceased soldier’s home country are raised out of respect, and the schoolchildren are ushered into the gymnasium to hear the grave news. But that could never compare to what his best friends were slated to feel in the next coming scenes. But after seeing Craig who was filled with life only a few episodes ago now, well, lifeless, it felt as if an anvil landed on my heart. The audience had some inkling as to what may have happened, and, deep down, I already knew that Craig was gone. Graphic images of Craig’s corpse are strewn across the computer monitors within the base’s command center. Sarah comes to find out that three of the soldiers recently deployed to Afghanistan were killed in action-one of them being Craig (Corey Knight). This week’s episode wastes no time and begins on a heavy note. And we now know in this episode just how bad it really was. Whatever had happened at that point was obviously something bad. The previous episode ended with Sarah (Chloë Sevigny) leaving the house in a rush and speeding off to the command center.
