After Saunders gets a letter that has bad news, he leaves the rest of the squad and is standing by a tree. The guys tell Nelson to go see if he can find out what's wrong, and to wave them out if he needs help. Nelson talks about other things, but not Saunders' problem. He waves to the other guys to come out, and none of them ask what's wrong either.
Saunders tells Trenton about the letter he got about his brother being missing in action. At the end of the episode, Saunders tells Trenton that his brother walked safely out of the jungle two days ago, but Trenton acts as if he didn't realize that the friend Saunders was talking about was Saunders' brother.
