You know something about Marty’s personality that I really love? He is just such an endearing, polite guy. And his manners don’t take a vacation, even in high-stress situations. 
Take the scene at the Peabody farm. Marty’s just watched Doc die, gotten chased by terrorists, traveled back in time, & crashed through a barn. He’s completely disoriented & scared out of his mind. Nobody would fault him for remaining in the DeLorean and just crying and/or screaming continuously for several minutes. But what does he do?
Tumblr media
Yup. Our sweet Marty is sure to find the time to apologize for the inconvenience he’s just caused the Peabodys. I mean…it could just be that he’s experiencing so much anxiety & shock that he literally can’t think of anything else to do, but still. Of all the ways to react, he decides to tell them that he’s sorry. (And how do they respond?? By SHOOTING at him. Rude.) 
And then when Marvin and his band help to free Marty from the trunk! At this point, Marty likely assumes the plan has completely failed. He knows Biff has his mom trapped in the car & is probably, again, scared out of his mind at the thought of what’s happening. There are SO many things for him to be terrified of right now.
The safety of his mother. The fear of what might be happening to his father. Having to make it to the clock tower before the lightning, which might not even matter considering how everything is falling apart and he likely won’t even exist soon anyway. 
Once that trunk opens, it would make total sense for him to just book it without a single glance at the Starlighters, right? HIS ENTIRE LIFE IS AT STAKE & manners very well may take a back seat to his other priorities. But…
Tumblr media
Marty hops out of that trunk, makes sure he returns the keys to the correct person, and then thanks them before taking off. It only takes two seconds, but it’s just always stuck out to me that one of Marty’s thoughts is, “Oh, better make sure these keys get back into the right hands! Who’s the owner of this fine vehicle? Hey, thanks, everyone!”
Whether these responses are coming automatically as a result of stress, or simply because Marty is just that polite, I still find it to be an interesting aspect of his character. He’s just sweet. Marty is sweet, everybody. (Except for when he’s called chicken & immediately wants to lay the smackdown on people, but that’s another story)
