Jon Rodriguez enlisted in the army, and not too long after the COVID-19 lockdowns happened. It's been 16 months, and his family was expecting it to be a few more months before they saw him again. Little did they know that his brother-in-law Joshua Nolette knew he was coming home early. So together, they surprised the family with an early homecoming.

Speaking of homecomings, Cameron Carter is in the Navy and has been stationed in Japan for 19 months. He also was unable to visit home due to COVID-19. Jennifer and Allen, Cameron's parents, were celebrating Jennifer's birthday at a restaurant when they found out they needed an extra seat at the table. Cameron surprised them all for mom's birthday, with the help of his aunt Christina.
