Bush Sr also had a sketchy memory about where he was on certain dates. But there at the end of his life, I bet he remembered a lot of things and he was yelling them out to whoever would listen and hoped that it would save him. It didn't, as consequences were already flowing into this bloodstream. SR didn't spend too much time in life thinking he would be held accountable.
If there was any confusion remaining, it was made clear to Jeb that Daddy went out on his knees crying like a silly bitch.
Oh, they all knew the circumstances that led to Daddie's wrinkled-flag death.JR stared blankly ahead mouthing "yep." to Laura, the way a... ahem "man" consigns to taking a defeat. Jeb knew, and STILL damn near suffered a heart attack. No one had ever played their game with them to a truly uncomfortable level. No one ever assigned a film crew to zoom in for precise moments. It truly hurt.
Then Hollywood, still trying to pretend that things would go on as normal, got tricked into dressing up and attending their own funeral.
Steven Spielberg would have gotten up and strangled Jervis if he thought he could avoid going to prison.
Their fight-back plan was enacted then and there with the "gate is good" signal. The ultimate desperation.....and they STILL didn't get what they needed out of it.

You're right. Jeb was horrified.
You may well be right fren. The letter seen by Laura and Jeb was quite possibly a photo of the exact moment of Snr's execution...
Edit to add: Dubya seemingly didn't want to look. Almost like he knew exactly what it was going to be...
