His "change to good?" He's been on the street for years, and now he's getting a chance to fulfill his purpose by having a kid to be his friend again. For an Imaginary Friend, that's like having a religious experience. Dude won't have to sit on the sidewalk for the rest of his life.

Hadn't thought of it that way-good point! It was pretty obvious that he'd been living homeless on the streets(and the streets of Charleston are some of the toughest-especially when a hurricane blows in), probably having been abandoned by his kid not long after that infamous basketball game. After all, he was more or less created for one purpose-to defeat Wilt. Having accomplished that, he probably became a burden on his kid and his kid's family pretty quickly.
I still can't help but wonder though-HOW did Wilt manage to reach Larry by phone, if Larry was living on the streets, and better yet, how did Wilt know which number to call? Even if Larry had a cell(and I have seen lots of homeless people with cell phones and pre-paid cards), how would Wilt have been able to track him down?
