Incorrectly Regarded as a Goof: In the scene where Hilary is holding her baby after just giving birth, Sister Margaret is seen wearing a golden ring. This is not a wedding band, as some have suggested. Catholic nuns often wear a golden ring that signifies their symbolic marriage to Jesus. edit »
We learn that when Lilly was six years old, her mother purposefully lost her in the mall to get some booze. edit »
Hilary West was killed in May 1964. edit »

Karen: (to Hilary): You live on a street called denial. edit »
Lilly: Abortion's illegal and no single mothers back then.
Det. Jeffries: And no sex ed, either. Couldn't buy birth control unless you were married. Abstinence was the answer.
Lilly: (smiling) That always works... edit »
