Bill went to the bank interview smelling of wet dog. He had __________ his one suit on the bed before going into the bathroom to shave. Dripping from the rain, Skipper, his Labrador retriever, decided the jacket made a perfect towel.

Bill put his one suit on the bed. Thus, you need a form of lay. Since the sentence has the auxiliary verb had, you need the past participle. You chose the correct form from the table below. Good job!
