What rules does our military have regarding military personnel who party
with the wives of other military personnel? I ask because Telford has
been DRINKING with Young's wife!

Dude, it was hardly a 'party'. They were sitting around chatting, eating
dinner, and having wine with the meal. Doesn't mean they pulled off each
other's clothes and cleared the table of dishes, if you know what I mean.

The wine made it look like a romantic date to me.

Ya know, some people just LIKE to drink wine with their dinner, no
romantic allusions at all. :-)

How often do you eat dinner alone with a married member (married to someone
other than you) of the opposite sex? How often do you drink wine alone with
such a person?

I don't drink wine, and the last date I had with my hubby was waaaaay
before the twins were born 17 months ago. :-)

Do you believe that married people can't have friends of the opposite
sex, ever? That it's too tempting and they'll always end up in a
romantic relationship?

I think we can dispense with spoiler space by now.

I think you need a really stable and trusting relationship
with your spouse if you're going to eat alone (and with
alcohol! OMG!) with a person of whichever sex you
sleep with. Then you need to go on behaving yourself
while you eat and drink with this person. Then you have
to satisfy yourself first about the motives of this person
(spouse stealing? entrapment? spying, assuming you
have something worth levering out of your brain?).
This assumes, of course, that the person is of comparable
age to you, not related in some safe way like siblinghood,
and apparently a candidate for sex with you.

Would you be cool with your husband having other women over to eat dinner and
drink wine without you being there?

Snort. My husband is waaaaaaaay too much of a cheapskate to do that. But
if it were someone he'd been friends with (not the kind with benefits,
but just maybe childhood friends or something) sure. I'm secure enough
in our relationship that I wouldn't freak out and beat her up or anything!

Does Telford fall into that category?

Yes, I am. :-) Thanks!

I honestly don't think we've seen/heard enough about Telford's character
to make a definitive assumption that he has ulterior motives. We have
however been given several indications that Young, while seeming to be a
'good guy' on the outside is in reality quite sneaky and vengeance seeking.

As I posted elsewhere, aldutery, or the appearance of the same, is a
criminal offense.

On the other hand, Young thought in "Light" that Greer was justified in punching
Telford, implying that he has significant negative qualities.

Could Young use the about to blackmail Telford into helping him convince Emily

Could just be *Young's* jealousy and negative qualities coming to the
forefront. We've seen that Greer will snap at the slightest provocation,
for all we know, Telford might have told him to button a button on his
uniform, and Greer punched him in the face.

Fear is a powerful thing. I would do the same if in that situation, but
I wouldn't be proud of it. The 3 of them had a chance to escape death,
and they took it. Don't know if many people would stop and say, oh,
yeah, our experiment is going bad, we've got a way to stay alive, but
let's just blow up with the ship on principle. ;-)
