Don't you just love Psychology? :(

Anyways,

-------------------------------------------------------
Explicit Memory (Conscious Recollection ) :

the Hippocampus (Center of Emotion & Memory) is damaged due to John being unable to recall what happened before the accident, like where he hid the money or robbing the bank.

Implicit Memory (Remember Things, Without Thought ) :

Cerebellum (Everyday Functions) is untouched because he knows how to drive and his way home.
