Billy has a flashback of him betting too much on a football game, and he owned money to a loan shark. The loan shark said that if he doesnt admit to a crime that someone else did something very bad will happen to him. Therefore he went to jail for a crime someone else committed.

In the bowling are the lights suddenly dim down and Layla starts tap dancing. After they finish bowling, Billy decides to take pictures of both of them so he can send to his parents. In this part of the scene the screen is cut in half, like we actually see the point of view of the picture booth. Lay...
