‘Home for Christmas’

Season 1, Episode 9 -  Aired December 1, 2021

Dean is excited for his older brother to return from Vietnam in time for the holidays, but Bruce has difficulty adjusting to life back home.

Quote from Bruce

Bruce: Hey. Can I join your sit-in?
Dean: No. I'm trying to end this war. And you don't care.
Bruce: Okay. That's not true. I want to end the war, too, but I also want to help my guys from my platoon get home safely.
Dean: So you care about them more than you do your own family?
Bruce: Of course not, Dean. But you all are safe here.
I just want to make sure my buddies get to spend next Christmas with their little brothers.
Adult Dean: When Bruce said that, I realized that all those soldiers I saw enlisting today had families that felt the same way as mine. Or worse, like the parents we visited yesterday who lost their son. I still didn't want my brother to go, but at least I could understand why he was going.
Bruce: So... you think we can get home now? I got something I want to show you.
Dean: Okay.
Bruce: Plus, we gotta get that sign back to Kim's room before she knows it's missing, because she'll murder you. [chuckles]
Adult Dean: By the way, my plan to end the war in Vietnam did work. It just took another seven years.
