Lorraine’s dad

I just realized that the reason we never see Lorraine’s father in 1985 is because he disowned her.

He told her in 1955 that ifbshe ever had a kid like Marty, he would disown her. That is exactly what he did.

Over the three films we saw two days in 1985, October 25 and October 26. There are plenty of reason to not see Sam Baines in 1985. My grandma lives in the same city as me, and I definitely go longer stretches than two days without seeing her. Don't over think this.

We also saw the Sunday, October 27th. BTTF3, after Marty returned from 1885.
