Tuesday 1234
"Harriet, could you tell the Admiral I've gone home when gets back from his meeting?"
"Yes ma'am. Do you need me to give you a ride?" Harriet offered.
"No, I called a cab it will be here in a few minutes." Mac replied. "Can you also tell Harm that if he's coming over to check on me tonight to bring Chinese food?"
"Yes ma'am. By the way I informed a person who shall remain nameless about your request if Cmdr Rabb wins the bet."
"Thank you. I'll see you tomorrow."
"Goodbye ma'am."

Mac's Apartment 1930
"It's open." Mac yelled in response to the knock on the door.
"Chinese as ordered." Harm said as in walked in.
"Thanks." Mac said without looking up.
"You know you really shouldn't leave your door unlocked anyone could come in."
"I saw you out the window when I went to the bathroom, I figure it was easier to leave it unlocked then than try to get up again. Now be quiet it's getting to the good bit." Mac stared at the tv screen.
"What are you watching?"
"A Few Good Men. Now sit down and be quiet."
"Yes ma'am." He sat down just Tom Cruise and Jack Nicholson did the famous 'I want the truth scene.'
"Now you said something about food?" Mac said as the credits rolled.
"Nice to see you too Mac." Harm smiled.
"Yeah whatever I'm hungry."
"When aren't you?" He said under his breath. Mac glared at him.
"Can you change the tape over?"
"What no more Navy Lawyers?" He grinned at her.
"No I want to watch Top Gun pilots. Them white uniforms."
"Top Gun do I sense a theme here?"
"You would if you knew I watched Navy SEALS earlier."
"So why the Navy movie kick?" He ate some noodles.
"A Few Good Men has Marine's in it too."
"Mac?"
"Because I got bored of Court TV and I don't like daytime TV."
"Ah."
"You know I tried that once." Harm commented as they watched Maverick sing to Charlie.
"How did it work out for you?"
"Crashed and burned."
"Probably a safer way to crash than actually crashing a real plane."
"But where's the fun in that. The adrenaline rush of flying at Mach speed."
"Maybe you're the one who should up date their will. So how's the trial going."
"Slowly, the defence is trying to drag it out, but we should have a verdict before the end of the week."
"That's good. Did you eat all the noodles?"
"No." He handed her the carton.
"Do want to hear about the rest of my day? Apart from the great choices I make with movies."
"Sure."
"I re-read six case reports, made lots of notes all very useful stuff. But the great excitement didn't happen until I was on the way home."
"What happened on your way home?"
"I got hit on by a cab driver."
"Really?!" Harm pulled a face.
"Yes. His name was Dave, he said to call him if I needed a lift to the hospital because he'd been to a Lamaze's class just in case."
"Thoughtful guy. But I'm sure you can manage the all the hee hee hooing by yourself."
"If that's all the help your going to be it's a good thing I got Harriet to go to the classes with me and not you."
"I would have come if you asked."
"I did, you were just busy working on a case and not listening to me."
"I'll come to the next class with you."
"Probably best if you don't they're showing the birthing video and you'd probably just faint again."
"I didn't faint the first time. I was just tired and fell off the chair."
"I believe you. Now be quiet I want to watch the rest of the movie."
"Yes ma'am."
"Harriet, could you tell the Admiral I've gone home when gets back from his meeting?"
"Yes ma'am. Do you need me to give you a ride?" Harriet offered.
