Joan arrives home and finds Greg with his coat on and some leftover chicken in his hand, obviously on his way to work. He greets her happily, but when she goes to heat up the chicken for him, they discuss their vacation plans, and when he hears that she can't get those days off she wanted, he tells her he definitely has to work on New Year's. He then suggests she take the days off anyway, which doesn't go over very well, especially when she asserts that he's going to Vietnam after he finishes basic training. Not wanting to hear that, he tells her that's not definite, but the stress of not knowing anything about their future is obviously tearing her apart, and he's not ready to deal with that. Referring to his training, I think, she blurts that he doesn't even know when he's going, but the last thing he says on his way out the door is "Soon." When I was so jazzed about the prospect of him leaving, I guess I didn't consider the possibility that I'd actually have to see it.
