'Izzy, the charges have been dropped. You get to stay,' Colonel Potter
said. Izzy stumbled, as she'd still been walking in when he said it.
'What? Really? I don't have to leave? I won't get arrested?' Izzy asked, stunned.
'Told you it'd be fine,' Hawkeye said through the door. Potter sighed and Izzy laughed crazily.
'HA!' she yelled at Frank, who was standing beside the filing cabinets and scowling. Then Izzy pranced out, and did a cartwheel.
'I think she's happy,' BJ said.
'Really?' Hawkeye asked.
'Yes. See the way she's jumping around like she's a rubber ball?' BJ replied. Izzy grinned at the two surgeons.
'I'm staying!' she enthused.
'I've never seen anyone so happy to not get sent home,' Potter said. Izzy skipped back to the Swamp in front of Hawkeye and BJ, and continued to bounce off the walls once there.
'Calm down! Or go use your energy to gloat over Frank, or something,' Hawkeye said.
'Actually, there is something I need to do,' Izzy said, sitting down on BJ's cot.
'Well, go do it,' BJ said.
'After I have a break. I've lost all my energy,' Izzy grinned. Hawkeye rolled his eyes, in mock annoyance, but grinned back at Izzy.
'Well, what is it you have to do?' he asked.
'Nothing you have to worry about. But thanks for keeping Frank distracted long enough for me to talk to Margaret,' Izzy said. She stood up and left, doing cartwheels in the compound and getting her hands muddy. She went back to Margaret's tent and knocked on the door.
'What?' the Major snapped. Sounded like she was a little annoyed after talking to Frank.
'It's me, Izzy. Can I see you for a moment?' Izzy asked. There was an annoyed sigh from inside, but Margaret didn't say no, so Izzy went in.
'What is. . .' Margaret started angrily and turning to the girl when Izzy didn't say anything, but she stopped in shock. Izzy was saluting her. Margaret swallowed the spite she'd built up from Frank. 'What. . .' she started.
'It's thanks for not agreeing with Frank to send me away,' Izzy said sincerely. 'I know you would have if you hadn't met that guy in Tokyo, so thank him from me next time you see him.'
'Izzy, I don't know what to say,' Margaret said, looking down at the ground. When she looked up again, Izzy was gone.
'What? Really? I don't have to leave? I won't get arrested?' Izzy asked, stunned.
'Told you it'd be fine,' Hawkeye said through the door. Potter sighed and Izzy laughed crazily.
