14, St. Davids PA: guy who has to shout "Victory for the Forces of Democratic Freedom"
15, Bridgewater MA (institution): guy whose father had anger management issues so he had to be gagged
11, Vienna VA: Q's bf or exbf hating that he's on eggshells all the time (due to Q, in his POV, being overly paranoid?) and thus leaving Q because of her fears that he'll leave
3, Trenton NJ: overheard dialogue about a guy who sees a stood-up girl at an airport and guess what he does
30, Drury UT: guy who married someone who had a good body even after giving birth and is now worried about how that looks to Q
31, Roswell GA: a guy talking about "Great Lovers" being another type of notcher--selfish about being generous--while giving Q weed
36: Aurora IL (domestic violence center): on how his victim was clearly just playing the victim and he was unable to change her, so he got help for himself
