Latter Days Page #4

Synopsis: Aaron Davis (Steve Sandvoss) and Christian Markelli (Wes Ramsey) are perhaps the two most opposite people in the world. Aaron is a passionate young Elder (a Mormon missionary) who wants to do his family and church proud. Christian is a shallow West Hollywood waiter/party boy who only looks forward to what man the next night will bring to him. After Aaron and three other Elders move into the apartment across from his, Christian's friends make a bet that he can't get one of them into the sack, so he instantly latches onto Aaron, suspecting there is more than meets the eye to him. There are two problems, though: Christian finds himself questioning his own identity as he falls in love with Aaron and the Mormon Church treats homosexuality as a sinful lifestyle. When Aaron's burgeoning sexuality is discovered, they will have to go through trials of regret, loss, perseverance, and forgiveness if they want to get to the thing that matters to them most: each other.

F*** you.

You don't know me

Of course I do

I used to be you

I had a career...friends... looks

the whole package...

but now I am just a skeletol reminder that

we might only be in the eye of the hurricane

OK, I'm gonna go now

I'm just f***ing with you right?

You should have seen your face

I get bored, I'm sorry... I like to rattle the newbies

I must really look like sh*t

it didn't use to be this easy

Could you just help me with this pillow under me

I don't... I can't...

anyway sort of christ my butt has wasted away to nothing

it's too bad cause I used to have a killer ass, I did

I've got pictures of it around here somewhere

I take your word for it

That's good

Snow!

It's all just snow!

What did you just say?

Maybe it's the meds but...

Sometimes I get this weird read on people

like a blank TV screen

all I see is snow

What do you suppose that means?

Nothing

I'll see you

No you won't

We should go in.

Ah for the love of flippin Pete

we're not tracked in a hospital

That's sick, and not in a good way

Let's just see if they let us leave some

pamphlets in the lobby

And you're dancing solo, cowboy!

They only allow non-denominational literature in the lobby

What did I flippin tell ya!

You OK?

Is there anything I can do?

I.. I'm sorry

I don't do this

I refuse to break down in front of strangers

But someone dies

I'm so sorry

They shouldn't have made me do it

Turn it off... like...

watching a line on a little screen just... go...

...straight

He always said that television would be the death of him

Was he your husband?

No...never my official husband...

then again

probably my best friend

His doctor Ben called me and said that it was time

This is what he wanted

I should have been prepared for it

Who are you?

Cary Grant?

No Ma'am

I'm a mormon missionary

We just pass out pamphlets

and they give us these discussions that

we memorize

I really don't know what to say here

Did you read the Sunday Comics?

I beg your pardon?

The comic page

When I was a little kid I used to put my face

right up to them you know

and I was just amazed because it was just this

mass of dots

I think life is like that sometimes

but I like to think that from God's perspective

life... everything...even this..

makes sense

it's not just dots

in stead we're all... we're all connected

and it's beautiful

and it's funny

and it's good

from this close we can't expect it to make sense

right now

Thank you

Oh keep it

Would you come and see me?

Please?

Drinks are on the house

Oh I don't drink

That must make your church a bit of a hard sell

At times

Well just hold on to it anyway

Maybe you can come by for a meal...

on me

I will

Promise?

I promise

So, did you have fun? Talking to crying lady?

Yeah, I did actually

Good.

So we missed lunch

I've seen you guys going out early in the morning

I bet you are wondering where I am off to huh?

You are always at the gym

No, I am volunteering now

Project Angelfood

That's great

What do you want from me..

some sort of merit badge?

No... I just... you know what you said about me

it's not true

Fine! It's not true and the world is a better place

You're not doing that cause of what I said, are you?

No, I just thought we could...

Yeah we could what?

Hang out? Be best friends? Ride off into the sunset?

I don't know

Everyone seems to think that... they treat me like I'm...

...like you're perfect

Yeah... maybe so at times

And you are the first person I've met that's made me feel

like that's not enough like maybe I want to be something more

So I just thought...

Look...whatever you thought...

Don't

We're colours and whites...

...we don't mix

Oh f*** I got to piss

Hall in, first door on your right

I don't kiss

What's your name again?

Dick?

Dirk

Dirk? Your parents named you Dirk?

It's really Mort

My friends call me Watersports Sport

It's not that I don't appreciate what you're doing back there but...

Could we have a little talk?

Talk?

Cool!

I'm into that

F*** yeah... I am your nasty little slut boy

I'm your p*ssy whore

You're gonna spank momma's ass cause

she's been a bad, bad girl

Oh, OK that's not exactly what I meant

I meant conversation

Conversation?

Why?

Don't you ever want to get to know someone?

Have it... mean something

sleep with someone and actually Sleep with them

You wanna what... Sleep together?

I don't know man..

Isn't that kind of intimate?

Excuse me, a moment ago you were licking my spleen

but sleeping with you would be too intimate?

Woa.. now you're freaking me out

I didn't know you were into weird sh*t

I'm just gonna go man

I'ts back...

Yeah! It must be your lucky f***ing day

Or maybe I'm not suffering enough yet

I didn't expect to see you again

Oh come on now you don't think you going all

Miss Cleo on me is going to scare me off that easily now, do you?

Maybe it's just dementia setting in

Sometime I read people and I...

I pick up the Oracle at Delphi

And sometimes I growl at people

doesn't make me Eartha Kitt

I'm just going to put this right about here

Doesn't matter, I'm still not hungry

I don't remember asking if you were

I just deliver the stuff, remember

But my friend Andrew made this and he doesn't even cook for his

boyfriends so the least you can do is try an be polite...

... and eat it

I don't have to pretend to be polite I think I've earned that right

Oh yes, that's right... you're dying you're bitter... blah blah blah

Fortunately I'm shallow so I'm impervious to that

Now eat it

Impervious...

I bet you don't know how to spell that

Sure I do.. It's spelled 'Bite me'

Now just to show that our little problems in this world

don't amount to a hill of beans...

...I'm going to read about some people who have some real trouble

Say it isn't so!

What

Well, apparently poor Pam Anderson

has had her breast implants taken out

and put back in so many times

her entire chest is collapsing

Oh they have bikini pictures

They're horrible!

Shut up

No they are seriously, they're down to her knees

Eat your chicken and I'll show you

Prick

Give me the f***ing magazine

Aaron, what happened!

There was an accident

Come on let me help you inside

There was this car that was just going way too fast

Ryder... I should have warned him

now they've take him to the hospital and...

Accidents.. they happen

I was thinking.... I wasn't even paying attention

It's OK...

Look... you're in no position... I should..

go

Ah for flippin... Gross!

Pretty boy is not the only fag here

OK, look, nothing happened here guys

We walked in here and you two were mackin' like schoolgirls and

you're saying nothing happened?

Well maybe you can try and reach down in your little

bible geek soul and be cool for two seconds?

I don't think you get to be making requests here gayboy

Don't f***ing touch me a**hole

Dude you so got to be leaving

Don't blow this out of proportion, it's not that big of a deal, right?
