What helps Woodfield remember what he wants to talk to "The Boss" about in "The Fly"?

Woodifield looks around the office as the Boss points out how nice everything is, and sees the photo of the Boss' son in his army uniform. That triggers the story of his wife and daughter going to see Woodifield's son's grave, and reminds him that he wanted to share the information with the Boss.


The Boss suggests that alcohol will help him with his memory, but that's not what helps him remember. After that, he goes on to discuss the graveyard and how nicely it is kept, but also goes on about the cost of a pot of jam that his wife told him about with the trip.


The main memory is the son's grave, and the main trigger is the photograph of the boy.
