Dwayne (Kadeem Hardison) is unpleasantly surprised when his friend Zellmer (Blair Underwood), an Army reservist, is called to active duty in the Persian Gulf. Nonetheless, Dwayne organizes a "guy's only" farewell party for his pal--which is memorably crashed by Whitley (Jasmine Guy), Jaleesa (Dawnn Lewis), and Kim (Charnele Brown), who perform "The Boogie-Woogie Bugle Boy From Company B". Meanwhile, Freddie (Cree Summer) can barely say a word to Zellmer due to her opposition of the US' intervention in the Gulf. This episode was cowritten by series regulars Jasmine Guy and Dominic Hoffman (Julian Day). ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi
