What is "bomb drop", Cadet?

During our "perfect storm" of a fight, she was telling me what an awful human I am and how she would rather 'be dead' than spend another minute with me. As you can imagine, this cut pretty deeply. And here is where I committed my marital felony (according to our therapist). I asked her what she was doing there if I am such a terrible person, then I told her to get the ___ out of my house. I took it back right away, and asked if we could just slow things down and talk, but it was too late. She was in her nightgown, grabbed her keys and cell phone and ran our of the house - no shoes, no purse. She did not respond to my phone calls or texts. About a half hour later, the doorbell rang. It was the city police, saying she wanted to get some of her belongings and would move out by that weekend. She would not talk with me, quickly grabbed some things and was gone. I was completely stunned and quite devastated.

We both own our own houses. We lived in my home and rented out hers. My wife moved back into her house that next weekend.
