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.
04:47So we got to bring it back up.
04:49Yeah.
04:50Yeah, we can write it again.
04:51Damn it.
05:07Damn it.
05:14Okay.
05:39Nice job, buddy.
05:41That's okay.
05:42Nice job.
05:42I like it.
05:47Watch the ball.
05:49Watch the ball.
05:53Get it, man.
05:55Come on, Fitz.
05:56Nice job.
05:57All right.
05:58Oh.
05:59So close, buddy.
06:00That was so close.
06:01That was almost it.
06:04Yeah.
06:05Almost it.
06:06Yeah.
06:08Good job.
06:09Good.
06:10Good job.
06:11Good job.
06:11Good job.
06:15Thanks.
06:16Can I play?
06:17Sure.
06:22Oh, no!
06:24Don't stop!
06:25Don't stop!
06:27No!
06:30Go!
06:49Where did you learn how to play like that?
06:52My dad taught me.
06:53Yeah?
06:54Well, I'm taking the boys out tomorrow morning to the park.
06:57Maybe you and your dad can come along and teach us some of those killer moves, yeah?
07:00My dad can't come.
07:02Why not?
07:04He's dead.
07:08He got blown up by an zombie.
07:26Morning.
07:27Class started 20 minutes ago.
07:30Right.
07:32Okay, you two.
07:33Go find yourselves a seat.
07:34Okay.
07:37So, what are you doing here?
07:39I'm volunteering my time.
07:41I like art.
07:43With five-year-olds.
07:45Yeah.
07:46Interesting.
07:48Pammy?
07:51Scott?
07:54What are you doing here?
07:56Teaching.
07:57What are you doing here?
07:58You two know each other.
07:59You could say that.
08:01The last time I saw you, you were swinging a set of handcuffs and flashing a badge.
08:06Uh, yeah.
08:07Well, the last time I saw you, you were living out of your van and selling watercolors in
08:13Van Uel Hall.
08:17So, did you two date, or?
08:20No.
08:20No.
08:21No, uh, no.
08:22He was dating a friend of mine at the time.
08:25Hillary.
08:26Actually, we got married.
08:28Oh, my God.
08:29That's great.
08:30Then we got divorced.
08:31Oh, my God.
08:33Again.
08:34I'm sorry.
08:35It's okay.
08:36I got something great out of it.
08:39His name is John.
08:41I have him for the summers.
08:43So, what are you doing here on post?
08:46I moved to Charleston three years ago.
08:49I teach at the community college.
08:51And speaking of teaching, I hate to break up this little reunion, but, Scott, you and
08:56I have a class to teach.
08:59Right.
09:00I better let you two get back to work.
09:04Yeah.
09:08Okay.
09:11Okay.
09:13It's okay.
09:19As you know, HIPAA requires we use numbers rather than names.
09:24Also, we have opaque acronyms for their conditions, like, um...
09:29ACS, acute coronary syndrome, instead of HA or MI.
09:34Right.
09:35PUD, CBA, ETOH, DRC.
09:40You are required to assess patients' pain scale every two hours in addition to BP, heart
09:47rate, BPM, 10 by Celsius, and pulse ox.
09:53Any questions?
09:55Yes.
09:56How do we register all these on the charts?
09:59Honey, there are no charts.
10:01There haven't been charts for years.
10:03Uh, for example, flow sheets for vitals, EKGs, medlis, everything is computerized.
10:11Um, now, let's get you in some dreams and see what you got.
10:16Bye.
10:17Bye.
10:20Bye.
10:21Bye.
10:23Bye.
10:27Bye.
11:17Can I beat that?
11:18No.
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.
11:41At least you're having sex.
11:47I see your little peeping Finn has met a new friend.
11:52Yeah.
11:54His name's Javier.
11:56His dad died.
11:58Oh.
12:00I mean, how do I prepare my kids to hear things like that?
12:03They 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.
12:13Okay.
12:14You know?
12:15Mm-hmm.
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.
12:30You talked about it for years.
12:35I had a lot of fun.
12:39I can't go.
12:41I have plans.
12:44Plans?
12:47I'm going to visit Jeremy.
12:55Jeremy?
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.
13:21I'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.
13:55Girl meets soldier.
13:57Girl meets soldier.
13:58Girl 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.
14:25You know what?
14:30You know what?
14:34It is very late.
14:36So, I have to get going.
14:38All right, kids.

18:49every time we're in the same room together
18:52my knees would shake
18:59but I was with Hillary and you were with Joe
19:06and I'm still mad at myself that I
19:11didn't have the courage to tell you

21:33I'm guessing you're telling me all this
21:35because you want me to talk you out of it
21:45the premise of your book
21:47seems to be that science and spirituality are not mutually exclusive
21:52exactly
21:54I've found that patients with a firm belief system
21:57whatever that may be
21:58recover better from trauma than those without one
22:01we want to believe we're connected to something greater
22:07but you make that sound better for the article right?
