Louie can't break his past trauma. He couldn't shake off the trauma, no matter what he tried, so he turned to drinking... hard. He beat a man senseless for walking close to his car and spitting when Louie said something, and he also beat a man for accidentally letting a door swing into him. He also leapt to attention when he thought he heard someone say Keirei. He also was taken back to the war in a flashback. There he vowed that he would kill the Bird if he ever found him
