Lt. Escobar is shot and brought back by Ruiz. Lt. Escobar comes from a family with connections, and his father arranges for an early out for Escobar - and Ruiz. Ruiz turns him down. McKay and Bravo Company pick up two additional injured soldiers who had items for Major Darling apparently looted from a temple. Major Darling grounds McKay for doing this. Devlin picks up the story about the artifacts and offers a deal to Darling: he is to quit looting and he is to put Goldman back in the field. Major Darling threatens McKay with a court martial when he goes out to help Bravo Company despite his grounding, and McKay says he would welcome the opportunity to tell the court about Major Darlin's looting. Dr. Grennly, a colleague of Dr Seymour, arrives. Part of the deal to get Dr. Grennly to come over was that he is to get all the publicity he wants to help his state-side clinic succeed.
