Moshe · Answer 1

Answer:d. He and a friend go to see a comedy at the movie theatre

Explanation: He will be entertained which may emotional revive him as he tries to forget what happens and focus on the comedy.

It is said that laughter is like medicine so he will emotional get uplifted as he laughs and enjoys the company not his friend.

As he goes home he will be most likely be thinking about what happened at the movie theatre and probably discussing that more and little forgetting what happened to him.
