They almost died in Mexico. Again.
If it wasn't for a hell of a lot of luck, a plan that came together, and Murdock's ability to not get everyone killed landing an enemy helicopter at base they wouldn't have been "almost".
It's not the first time that's happened... not even the first time this year. But, it's the first time since Borneo, at least.
Face wasn't shocked when Hannibal shoved a set of keys in his hand - or told him to take the weekend and get a shower and sleep in real bed before reporting back to base. They earned a little R&R. He's not even particularly shocked when Murdock climbs in the jeep with him. It's not like they've got much of anyone else to get into trouble with, and things have been pretty much all right since the incident he's "forgotten". He is, however, a little surprised at the energy vibrating the small hotel room when they walk inside.
Double occupancy, second floor next to the ice machine and overlooking the pool.
Before the door even hammers shut behind them, he's dropped his rucksack on one of the queen beds and is peeling off his dirty green t-shirt on the way to the blessed shower.

He doesn't pause before changing the subject; "I'm starving... you want a pizza or something?"

"Could go for some ice cream after," he teases.

"I guess I can play nice guy and go for ice cream - but you're buying."

"Sure, sounds good."

He packs light for R and R.
"What's your flavor of the moment?"
