Joan, also once called "Old Lady Karma" is a old woman who changed Earl Hickey's life when she accidently hit him with her car ("Pilot").
Season 1[]
After hitting Earl, she drove off and then called her sister who convinced her to go back to the scene of the accident. As Joan was returning to the scene, she ran over Paul, who was running off with the lottery ticket that Earl lost after getting hit. Paul lost the ticket as well which ended up returning to Earl after he did a good deed. Joan decided to quit driving and travel on the bus. On one occasion, she put her map in front of the bus driver asking how long it would take to reach her stop. Because the map blocked the bus driver's view of the road, he didn't see Paul grabbing the money that was blown out of his hands and accidentally hit Paul ("Number One").
