I can totally see part 1 happening -- Ray really is Mr. Security. I'm sure that just put the cherry on their separation, poor kids.
I'm glad the second leaving went much better!
(Asking Ray to give up his gun semi-permanently should be as personal as asking him to give up the GTO -- my brothers are cops, and while their relationship to their guns is not exactly Freudian, it's an important part of their professional equipment -- Fraser could probably fill out a humongous number of official forms and mail it back to him. But Ray probably has a second-favorite gun in a lockbox at home, anyway.)
Right on target
