Dear, Please Hire My Old Rapist.*

In Part 1 of the series, Biff and his gang pulled Marty out of a car while he was parked with Lorraine outside the Enchantment Under the Sea Dance. The gang put him shut Marty in the trunk of the Marvin Berry's (Chuck's cousin) band's car. Biff, alone with Lorraine, decides to rape her.

That is, until George McFly comes to her rescue and knocks Biff out. They kiss at the Enchantment Under the Sea Dance and Marty's existence is saved (we'll discuss this improbability in a future post.) Marty travels back to the future to find that Biff now works as a personal assistant of some sort to George.

Everyone seems to have forgotten that Biff attempted to rape Lorraine. He has access to their house, their mail, the wax for their cars (including that new 4x4.) And all the McFlys seem cool with the fact that he once tried to rape one of them.

How long he has been working for the McFlys is unknown, but the way George has him by the short and curlies, it has either been a long time or a very short time and he's got to lay down the hammer. It's not like a guy like Biff drops out of your life after high school and then comes back into it looking for a personal assistant job. Without getting punched by George, he seemed to have a middle management position where George wrote his reports (Biff retyped them.) So if George McFly was absent from his life, it is probable that Biff would have assumed a similar job in the new timeline (we'll discuss inconsistent multiple timelines in a future post.)

So this leads me to believe that Biff has been working as a personal assistant for George (or the McFly family) ever since high school. George knocked him out cold once and he's been his bitch ever since. Maybe he lost all his credibility as a bully after that and was ashamed from then on. Maybe Lorraine threatened to go to the cops. Either way, Biff has been around their kids their whole lives. Not that he's a pedophile, but I wouldn't let someone who tried to rape me around my babies.`

Marty's like 17 or so. His sister Linda looks to be in her early twenties (let's say 22) and his brother, Dave, looks to be in his mid to late twenties (let's say 27.) It was only three years since the rape attempt occurred that Dave was born. Eight years after the event, a girl was born. Marty was born just 13 years after that night. Such a traumatic experience would not escape a mother's mind that quickly.

George and Lorraine may forgive and forget after 30 years and hire the old school bully who once tried to take your innocence to wax the car. But certainly not immediately or three years later when they started their little family.

But she also seems to have forgotten all about it by the time she gets to the dance, so...

Go ahead, George dear. Hire my old rapist.*




*Sorry. "Attempted."
