Summary
Curls outlined in silver frame Tracy's face as she looks at him, eyes sparkling in the near darkness. Her tone is lower, more confidential when she says: "You're marvelous, Dext, but I need a woman's touch sometimes."

Summary
They meet in Paris, when she is still Queen of France and he a young Duke of Normandy.
He comes to her chambers exactly as planned, veiled in the dark and secrecy of a castle at night, carrying not so much as a candle to light his way to her doorstep. Whether it is a young man’s folly or an experienced charmer’s skill, Eleanor does not let on to her surprise. It is best not to feed a young duke’s pride too much, especially one with a crown looming over him in the distance, too far to touch but close enough to feel.

Summary
5 times BJ looks at Hawkeye in a way that makes his heart ache with something he can't write off as friendly affection (but oh, how he tries to find excuses) plus one time Hawkeye looks at him the same way.
With a reminder of Peg this close to him, her voice almost ringing in his ears, it's no wonder BJ's getting his affections mixed up; the attraction he feels for his wife refracting the love he feels for his friend into something aching and desperate. Hawkeye's not his wife, after all, but they might as well be married for how close they are out here. It's no wonder, when he puts it like that, that he's almost overwhelmed by the urge to crawl onto Hawkeye's cot and press a kiss to the corner of his smile.

Summary
She sees her father everywhere she goes. He’s in the army drab that clings to her, he’s in the commands that fall from an officers’ tongue, in the steely edge that enters her own voice when she’s afraid she’ll break under the pressure of it all (but she never does, because she’s not her mother’s daughter. She’s Margaret Houlihan, her father’s only child, and Houlihans don’t go to pieces).

Summary
A series of scenes and letters, exploring Hawkeye's relationship with his dad throughout the show.
Crabapple Cove seems a distant memory already — the colorful image of blooming flowers turning sepia in his mind, the taste of fresh lobster from the festival fading to a ghost on his tongue.

Summary
"'Pygmalion is just a myth,' Terry said, her voice a touch raspier than before, and with a hand so perfect it could have been carved from the Greek sculptor’s marble itself, Jean reached out and took the nightgown from her hands, shrugging it on before falling back on the bed again."
Or, Jean comes back to the Footlights Club after her night with Anthony rambling about Greek myths, and it forces Terry into a realization.
