Though Doc asked Marty not to come back for him, Marty does go back anyway, because he and the 1955-Doc find out that Emmet Brown was killed shortly after the writing of the letter (by Mad Dog Tannen, the great-grandfather of Biff).
Right after the time-jump, the DeLorean is attacked by Indians who put an arrow to the gas tank, the fuel goes away.
Doc finds a way to solve that: they must kidnap a train and accelerate with that above 88 mphs.
Doc saves the new teacher of the town, Clara Clayton, who was supposed to die, and falls in love with her.
Continuity mistake: When Marty returns to 1985, he goes to his house and gets in his Toyota pick-up. Look closely behind his head when he first gets in the truck, there is no driver-side head rest. But when he picks up Jennifer, when they pull up to the stop sign the head rest is there. (01:45:00)
Jennifer: Excuse me, Doc Brown. I brought this message back from the future and, well, now it's erased.
Doc: Of course it's erased.
Jennifer: But what does that mean?
Doc: It means your futures haven't been written yet. No one's has. Your future is what ever you make. So make it a good one, the both of you.
Trivia: "Mad Dog" Tannen's actions after shooting Marty are a perfect homage by Thomas F Wilson to Lee Marvin in "The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance." He even gets the facial expressions, the mumbled and sarcastic thanks and the jaunty angle with which he holds the gun right.

Answer: He simply has an absurdly low tolerance for alcohol, and whiskey is not a wise choice if this is the case. It helps set up the joke when Marty asks the bartender, "How many has he had?", and he replies by telling Marty, "Just the one", as we are meant to think Doc has been in the bar all night drinking away his sorrows.
