00:00Previously on Army Lives.
00:02They can't do an MRI until the swelling goes down.
00:04They think I might until I might see you.
00:06Which means?
00:07Perjury.
00:08Six months physical therapy.
00:10Looks like I won't be deploying with my unit.
00:13All I can tell you is that if they need me, I'm gone.
00:17I've also requested entry into a VA treatment center in Vermont for PTSD.
00:23We are trying to protect you from a potentially dangerous situation.
00:27I don't need you to protect me, Dad.
00:30I know him.
00:31And now he's enlisted and he's leaving.
00:35This has got to be your idea.
00:37I had nothing to do with it.
00:38So thanks a lot, Dad, for giving me the same crappy life that you gave my mother.
00:43Are you sure?
00:44Yeah.
00:46I just never thought my first time would be in an Army post.
00:51Come here.
01:01Amanda, where are you?
01:03It's now 7 a.m.
01:05Where the hell are you?
01:08Where are you?
01:18Amanda.
01:23Where have you been?
01:25Didn't you get my messages?
01:26I turned my phone off.
01:29Oh.
01:30This is not okay and you're damn lucky your father's already at work.
01:34Calm down.
01:35I'm fine.
01:37And I'm tired.
01:39I'm gonna go to bed.
01:40Since when do you stay out all night and talk to me like this?
01:44I'm going through a lot right now, Mom.
01:47Please, just leave me alone.
01:49I'm still your mother and I deserve an explanation.
01:55Okay.
01:57You want an explanation?
02:00I was out all night with Jeremy.
02:04Having sex.
02:06And yes, it was the first time.
02:09And I know you.
02:10And I know what you're gonna say.
02:12And I will not let you ruin this for me.
02:28Stop.
02:30No.
02:31Hey.
02:32Hey.
02:33Stop it, both of you.
02:34Sit down.
02:37Give me that.
02:39No, I saw it.
02:40Damn it.
02:42Bad word.
02:43Ten cents in the jar.
02:44Damn it is not a bad word for adults, only for kids.
02:47Where is my cereal?
02:49Look, we're out of milk, so I'm trying to...
02:52Here.
02:55Take a brownie.
02:56But Dad said to eat a healthy breakfast.
02:59Yeah, well, Dad isn't here right now.
03:01So I'm doing the best we can.
03:04Best we can.
03:06Here.
03:08Why aren't you two dressed?
03:10Do you want to be late for your first day of art camp?
03:12You'll eat these in the car.
03:14Go get dressed.
03:14I want cereal!
03:16Go get dressed, young lady.
03:18But...
03:18Now!
03:19Now!
03:20Go!
03:22Go!
03:26Go!
03:47Gentlemen, welcome to league play.
03:50Hey, I need to see the following players.
03:53Staff Sergeant Matthew Granada and Roland Burton.
04:01Which one of you is Granada?
04:03Me, sir.
04:05Your records state that you've been on limited duty since the surgery on your rotator cuff?
04:10Yeah.
04:11I need a medical clearance before you can play.
04:13Yeah, I got it, sir.
04:14I just forgot to bring it.
04:15All right, feed it to me next time.
04:17We'll do.
04:18That makes you Burton.
04:21I need your rank, soldier.
04:23You left it blank.
04:24Not military.
04:25My wife is.
04:27Then I'm sorry, sir.
04:28You can't play.
04:30Sir, can't we make an exception?
04:32I mean, the man's got gay.
04:35No exceptions.
04:36Policy.
04:37Hey, I'm sorry, man.
04:39Could've used you.
04:41Yeah.
04:43Hey, sir, all right.

11:11He said it was summer.
11:16Can you beat that?
11:19No.
11:20I wish I could, but you're talking about sex, right?
11:25I have vague memories of moaning and toes curling.
11:31Your toes curl?
11:34I didn't say mine.
11:40Hey, look on the bright side. At least you're having sex.
11:47I see your little peeping Finn has met a new friend.
11:52Yeah. His name's Javier.
11:57His dad died.
11:59Oh.
12:00I mean, how do I prepare my kids to hear things like that?
12:03You can try, but you really can't prepare them for something like that.
12:08I mean, any more than you can prepare them for, you know, their first heartbreak.
12:14You know?
12:15Okay.
12:16I got it.
12:18Look at you.
12:22I just thought it would be fun to go back to that beautiful part of the country again.
12:27You loved that trip to Yellowstone, Amanda. You talked about it for years.
12:34I had a lot of fun.
12:39I can't go. I have plans.
12:44Plans?
12:47I'm going to visit Jeremy.
12:54Jeremy?
13:01Mom didn't tell you.
13:03Tell me what?
13:09I'm still seeing him.
13:16And you knew about this Claudia Joy?
13:18I just found out.
13:19I'm not going to Montana. I'm going to visit Jeremy at Fort Benning.
13:24No, you're not.
13:27You are going with your family on a vacation.
13:31And if you have a problem with that young lady, you can take it to your room.
13:48So, how the hell did you go from cop to army wife?
13:53Well, you know the story.
13:56Girl meets soldier.
13:57Girl gets pregnant.
13:59Soldier says we can't have both parents being shot at all the time.
14:03So, girl becomes an army wife.
14:07Do you miss it?
14:11Yeah.
14:13Sometimes.
14:17But I've got two kids, so I still feel like a cop.
14:24Angie, you can go home.
14:26Oh, no.
14:28I want to help.
14:33Uh, you know what?
14:34It is very late, so I have to get going.
14:38All right, kids, get your stuff.
14:39It is time to go.
14:40Mommy, John must come over for a microwave tonight.
14:44Microwave?
14:45Um, in your house, it's probably called dinner.
14:49Please, please, please, please, please, please.
14:52Yes.
14:53Yes, you can go.
14:54You can go.
14:55Yes.
14:55It says eat.
14:56All right, come on, get your stuff.
15:01Hey, cops and robbers both need to watch out for cars.
15:14Dolores, um, Roxy, I called earlier.
15:16Oh, yes.
15:17Thank you for looking after Javier.
15:20Would you like to come in for a cup of coffee?
15:24Um, let them tire themselves out.
15:28I like the way you think.
15:36You have a beautiful home.
15:45Javier told me about his father.
15:48I'm so sorry.
15:50We knew it could happen, you know?
15:52We just...
15:55We never thought it would happen to us.
16:00How's Javier doing?
16:02He's like me.
16:03You know, he has good days, and he has bad days.
16:09I'm sorry.
16:10Today's a really bad day.
16:20Do you need to get that?
16:22No.
16:23It's okay.
16:25Marinos, please leave a message, and we'll call you back.
16:29Mrs. Marino, this is Alvin Jennings from the Housing Authority again.
16:34Your move out is two days away, so we need to set up an appointment for the walk-through as
16:38soon as possible.
16:42Wow.
16:43You have to move?
16:45Army policy.
16:47Widows are only allowed to stay on post for six months after a spouse dies.
16:53You're joking, right?
16:54I wish.
16:57I need to get the house ready for the walk-through inspection on Thursday.
17:01Wait.
17:02You're supposed to move out on Thursday?
17:04Like, in two days Thursday?
17:09Honey, I know I've only known you about a minute, but you need to get going on this.
17:15I know.
17:18I know.
17:19I'll get it done.
17:22Don't worry.
17:23Do you have anyone to help you?
17:26No.
17:32Diego died shortly after we moved in, so...
17:36I don't really know many people.
17:39Well, now you know me.
17:49So, I have to thank you for this pizza, because it is the first radiation-free meal we've had in
17:57weeks.
17:59My pleasure.
18:01Oh, you have to tell me about your brother.
18:03Is he still certifiably insane?
18:05Yes.
18:08Yep.
18:09And he just got re-elected, so there you go.
18:15That's funny.
18:18So, this is new.
18:22Uh, yeah, it's kind of a mess.
18:25Oh.
18:27I like it.
18:28I like it longer.
18:37So, I probably shouldn't say this, but I've been carrying it around for ten years.
18:43What?
18:44But now I'm scared.
18:47Um, every time we're in the same room together, my knees would shake.
18:59But I was with Hillary and you were with Joe.
19:01So, I was with Hillary and you were with Joe.
19:19And I know, I know we can't go back there, but if I had told you how I felt,
19:41Would it have made a difference?
19:52Yes.
19:54Yes.
20:09Nothing happened.
20:14But, I wanted it to.
20:19You're allowed.
20:21You're married, not dead.
20:25Yeah.
20:27I've heard that one before.
20:31But this went into Maryland territory.
20:35I mean, for the first time, I understood the whole affair thing.
20:41It's just hard, you know?
20:44With Chase being gone right now, and I don't know when the hell he's coming back.
20:52So, what is it about this guy?
20:54I just keep thinking about his question.
20:58If he had told me how he felt back then, I would be a cop, living in Boston, married to
21:03an art teacher right now.
21:05Would we still have met somewhere in there?
21:08Oh, honey, yes.
21:10You and me, we're destined to be together.
21:18The scary thing is, he still gets to me, you know?
21:28I was this close to kissing him.
21:33I'm guessing you're telling me all this because you want me to talk you out of it.
21:45The premise of your book seems to be that science and spirituality are not mutually exclusive.
21:52Exactly.
21:54I've found that patients with a firm belief system, whatever that may be, recover better from trauma than those without
22:01one.
22:02We want to believe we're connected to something greater.
22:07But you make that sound better for the article, right?
22:10Of course.
22:11Thanks.
22:12My wife says I come off sounding like Shirley MacLaine when I talk about my book.
22:18Don't worry.
22:19Your voice is much deeper.
22:29You know my wife's a lieutenant colonel.
22:32She is the highest ranking African American female on this post.
22:38I did know that.
22:40That's very impressive.
22:42But, we're here to talk about you.
22:51So, tell me, your father passed away when he was only 36 years old.
22:57Did that impact your decision to become a psychiatrist?
23:02So, you've done your homework.
23:10Yes, I guess it did.
23:14His death came out of nowhere.
23:16There's no history of cancer in our family.
23:19My mother fell apart.
23:21I felt helpless to do anything.
23:23So, yes.
23:26Now I find it fulfilling to help other people make it through.
23:30And who helps you make it through?
23:52Amanda.
23:52Amanda.
23:53Am I interrupting anything?
23:56Oh, just me avoiding my life.
23:59And the third shelf of the refrigerator.
24:02Come on in.
24:06Is Major Sherwood here?
24:08Oh, no.
24:09He's in Washington, D.C.
24:10More follow-up on the helicopter crash.
24:21I just, I wanted to see how you were.
24:24Since Jeremy left on the bus.
24:27Oh.
24:28Well.
24:30I'm all right.
24:32So, you're okay?
24:36Yeah.
24:39How are you?
24:50I'm okay.
24:54I'll go now.
24:56Oh, honey.
24:57What's wrong?
25:00I just never thought I would miss him so much.
25:03It's awful.
25:05It's awful.
25:15Guys, why didn't you meet me up front like I asked?
25:19Okay, forget it.
25:20Just get your stuff and meet me at the parking lot.
25:22Okay.
25:25Be rude.
25:26I'm just.
25:44I'm just.
25:53I'm just.
26:12I'm just.
26:13I'm just.
26:13I'm just.
26:13I'm just.
26:13I'm just.
