Jumping off a bridge and drinking poison. Justine describes Holden's stories as "intense". Both are "the story of what a story would be. About a boy that was put upon".

In both of the stories, the boy kills himself at the end, in one by jumping over a bridge, and the other by drinking a bottle of bug poison.
| At the Retail Rodeo, Justine also works with an abnormally cheerful woman called Gwen (Deborah Rush). What two components of Justine's diet does Gwen suggest are causing Justine to have little energy? | A Good Quiz: "The Good Girl"

meat and dairy. Gwen makes this observation during an early scene where she and Justine are having lunch together. Gwen is "ten years older than (Justine) and has ten times the energy" because she doesn't eat meat or dairy. Gwen goes on to suggest that the food Justine eats might be the reason Justine can't get pregnant, and why Justine walks around with a "hung-jaw look" on her face.
Saint Catherine's. Gwen gets sick from eating some blackberries she bought on the side of the road, and store manager Jack Field asks Justine to take her to Saint Catherine's. Justine ends up just dumping Gwen at the doors of the hospital, since she is late to go and meet Holden. Gwen dies, and Justine feels quite guilty that she just left her.

| Because Justine fears exposure, Holden concocts an elaborate scheme to get some money somehow so the pair can run off together. He actually goes through with the plan and robs the Retail Rodeo. He barely gets away with it, however. How do the police and store manager Jack know immediately that Holden robbed the store? | A Good Quiz: "The Good Girl"
|
He leaves his cashier's key in the door.. Holden robs his parents, then blows open the Retail Rodeo safe with a gun and steals $15,000. His plan is to run away with Justine, but she's not too sure about it. Store Manager Jack Field confronts Justine about the crime, suspecting her of being in on it. It turns out that more people knew about her affair than she originally thought.
Her boss, Jack. In the end, Justine has a choice: either run away with Holden or stay and face up to the consequences of her actions. She chooses to stick with what she knows, and saves herself by telling her boss where to find Holden after he steals money from the store. Her boss, Jack Field, tells her, "You done good. You're a good girl."
Light Brown. Viewers see in the opening scenes, when Justine comes home from work the first time, that she drives an older-model, light brown Toyota Corolla. This appears to be the only car she and Phil own, as Bubba picks Phil up in his truck to take them both to work.
Tom. Jake Gyllenhaal's character calls himself Holden, after the main character in the novel "The Catcher in the Rye", Holden Caulfield, because he relates to this story. He refers to the name his parents gave him, Tom, as his slave name.
Motel Glen Capri. This is a cheap but convenient meeting spot for the couple. When viewers first see the neon sign for the motel, only part of the name is lit up, spelling out "MOT Glen". Later in the film, when Justine and Phil go to Bible Study, Justine sees the motel manager coming to the group, and this is the real reason that she runs away.
