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.
