After Charlie died...
1:10:05
...Lloyd Abbott started dropping by
on his way home from work.

1:10:11
He felt so bad about that bet that
Charlie had made with him at the lake.

1:10:17
That foolish...
1:10:20
...idiotic bet.
1:10:22
Poor Lloyd. I felt sorry for him.
1:10:29
But he started dropping by so often
that people began to talk.

1:10:37
One day, I was in Woolworth's.
I was having lunch at the counter.

1:10:41
Suddenly, there was Joan Abbott...
1:10:44
...screaming at me to stop sleeping
with her husband, with Lloyd.

1:10:49
I was speechless.
1:10:53
She was gone
before I could find my tongue.

1:10:55
Christ...
1:10:57
I went to see Joan. I wanted to put
her mind at rest. I wanted to tell her...

1:11:03
But why? Why'd everyone in town
believe Joan Abbott?

1:11:07
Because she's Joan Abbott.
1:11:10
I hate this town.
1:11:13
I hate the Abbotts.
1:11:17
- Maybe I shouldn't have told you.
- I already knew.

1:11:22
People still talk about it?
1:11:25
I never heard anyone talk about it.
Not to me, at least.

1:11:29
- Well, then how did...?
- Jacey.

1:11:34
Oh, Lord.
1:11:37
- Jacey knows too.
- Yeah, but...

1:11:42
He thinks it really happened.
1:11:53
OLDER DOUG: For the first time in my life
that I could remember...

1:11:56
...I saw my mother cry.
I felt sad leaving Haley for college...
