The game ties up a lot of loose ends about what happened in the 20 years since the events of TRON (1982) took place. Flynn did tell Alan what had happened to him in the hours he spent in the computer, and it was likely that Alan believed him. Alan apparently married Lora not too long after the movie took place (never going back to Flynn) and they wasted no time having a son, Jet. A few years later, Lora died in a digitizing accident.
