Doug contemplates Dawn's grave, his childhood sweetheart and suicide victim. He was angry at her after her suicide in 1987, and refused to go to her funeral or burial. Years later, Doug considered taking his own life. Instead, he went to the cemetery to visit the grave of a friend and stumbled upon Dawn's grave. It was a cathartic moment when he decided that he would commit his life to battling suicide and depression. (Desiree Cooper)
