Capt. Phil Riker tells Gunther about what Lt. Fitzgerald told him, but Gunther tells him that Fitzgerald has never showed signs of fatigue or been wounded and he can't explain his sudden idea of predicting the dead. Gunther tells Riker that Fitzgerald is visiting one of his wounded soldiers in the hospital. Gunther walks into the lobby and Fitzgerald tells him that he saw the light on Smitty's face. Gunther tells Fitzgerald that he is cracking under the strain of war and Fitzgerald gets upset and walks away. That evening, Riker goes over the plans of attack for the next mission. After the briefing, Fitzgerald looks at Riker's face and sees a light on it. Later, the Sergeant tells Fitzgerald that Gunther wants to see him and Gunther tells Fitzgerald that he is to report back to division headquarters for an evaluation.
