Simon & Simon - I Thought The War Was Over clip3

A request. Rick, suffering from PTSD, flashes back to his experiences in the war and talks about his fears of losing AJ, who has been kidnapped. Really touching scene, and excellent acting.

This is from the season six episode 'I Thought The War Was Over'.

Thanks so much for posting this. It has been probably 12 years or more since I've seen this episode but what an amazing performance by the entire cast. I'm hoping they will continue putting out the DVD releases because I really look forward to having this episode.

Wow this is a great scene. I would like to know how it continous. Do you have the whole show? Put the next part of it here too please. I´ve loved that show in the 80´s and i still love it today.

@Spandauballetfan72 I'm afraid i don't have the resources to post whole shows, so i post clips i like (or that are requested). @MadMoneyGirl has requested the bit where Rick rescues AJ at the end so i will be posting that shortly.

@DawnDallasCR

The DVDS are coming out stiill slowly but they are coming out. Upt o season 4 is out and season 5 is yet to come out. I am the one who circulated the online petetion to get the seasons after season 1 out on dvd so they are coming out

@MadMoneyGirl He really does well doesn't he - they treated the subject with a lot of respect. I love AJ's general stoicism throughout too. Even when Rick is saying 'sometimes i'm surprised we come from the same mother' AJ looks more concerned than he does hurt - he knows this isn't his brother talking, but the trauma.

This is one of my favorite episodes of Simon & Simon...Gerald McRaney gives such a strong performance as a Vietnam vet with PTSD.
