[Lying in bed, Lynn notices a scar on Bud's shoulder]
Lynn: Where'd this come from?
Bud: When I was twelve, my old man went after my mother with a bottle. I got in the way.
Lynn: So you saved her.
Bud: Not for long.
Lynn: I'm sorry, it's none of my business.
Bud: He tied me to the radiator. I watched him beat my mother to death with a tire iron. And he left me there. Three days before a truant officer found us. They never found the old man.
