Latter Days Page #6
Hello?
Julie Taylor?
Um... so is that Clive with a D of Clive with a V
Oh well.. it's official... winter's here
Bundle up
Ah... much better
So... guess what...this A and R guy from the record company
has been totally coy about which team he plays on..
when I introduce you, you can totally nail him
and set the record straight
well... so to speak
I go pass on this one...
You know... why? he is totally cute, I'm serious
What's wrong with you...
you know, you haven't been yourself since...
wait... are you still not over missionary man?
I don't know
Chris
It's weird with him disappearing like that
OK... wel then stop moping like a schoolgirl and
do something about it, call him...
Just dial 1-800-TORTURED MORMON?
Probably sounds they've got enough of them
But I think you should just get the hell over it
Maybe I don't want to
I mean LA is a city where everyone dances with
one eye on the door...
like we're all waiting for something better to walk in
Who would even recognize it if it did?
It would be nice to stop circling
It would be nice to stop equating sex with a handshake
And it would be nice to have it mean something
Listen to you, you are turning into a chick
Shut up!
You are! Wait Christian wait, seriously you dropped something
What?
Your balls! Must have fallen over under somewhere
This is me not talking to you
OK wait but you're still coming to the show tonight, right?
As president of the Pocatello stake it is my unhappy duty
and obligation to convene this church court on behalf of the Elder
Aaron Davis for grave and grievous sin of homosexuality
In the light of your abnormal and abonimable state
and your refusal to see you have been duped
into a hogwash alternative lifestyle..
I wish my shame was enough for both of us
not to mention the shame you brought to this church..
a family... our ancestors...
Wait a minute our ancestors?
Dad...your grandfather had half a dozen wifes
Same goes for every single person in this room...
I'd say we were the original definition of alternative lifestyle
Are you calling us hypocrites?
No we've gone way beyond hypocracy Dad,
now we're just being mean
With the authority invested in me by
the Melchizedek priesthood
and in the name of Jesus Christ I have no choice
but to begin excommunication proceedings against you
at witch point you will be stripped of the priesthood...
the garments... and membership in this church
Still at it?
There are a lot of Davises up there
Hi, I'm trying to reach an Aaron Davis
No not Errol.. AARON...two A's...
Hi, I'm looking for Aaron Davis...
No, he didn't win anything...
No no no, he is younger than that...
Does he have a son named Aaron?
No! Yeah! Let me talk to your wife
Hi, hello I'm looking for an Aaron Davis
What? The Davis Boy, yeah that sounds like him
No, he's not in anymore trouble...
What kind of trouble?
I'm sorry... I'm not trying to pry
Ferron Davis can you spell that?
On Stone Creek... really...Thank you so much
Buck Owens... really... they still run that?
OK, well you get back to it now
OK, thank you
Hello?
I'm sorry, brother Davis is down at the Stake Center
Oh, I'm sorry... Aaron?
May I ask why you are trying to reach Aaron?
Los Ang... are you one of the Elders in Los Angeles?
No...you know what, my son has no desire to speak to you
and I hope you could have the decency not to call here again
Is Dad missing dinner again?
Oh it's nothing but he sure is late over at the Stake Center...
there is no point in this getting cold
If you are just gonna play with it...
I don't know why I bother anymore
Julie! get out here... I found him
You talked to him?
No, his mother hung up on me
Um... b*tch!
No, but if he really did not want to
talk to me then she really would not
have had a problem putting
him on the phone, right?
And next time he will probably pick up
Damn girl I didn't know getting hung up on
makes me feel so good
Good! Then we're going out because you
have been a contrary mary way too long
Did something fall again?
Yeah, just a little dropsy... you go on
Mum?
Mum...
What Aaron
What?
It's nothing I just wanted to see if you
bring yourself to look at me
I'm looking at you... what am I suppose to be seeing
Nothing
His name was Christian, wasn't it
What?
Is Christian the one?
What did he do to you!
He loved me
Don't say that! Do you know how ridiculous that sounds?
How repulsive that is to God to everyone?
Two men? Men don't love Aary...
women bring love to a relationship.
But Ma he told me he loved me...
He would have told you anything
He flattered and beguiled you... tools of the devil
that's what they do
You don't know that
Yes I do
You don't know that
I do... you know why? Because when you didn't arrive home...
I called your mission president
You checked up on me huh?
I was worried sick about you.. and you know what he said?
Your missionary companion told him that that Christian
person... you were nothing more than a bet he made
That's not true...
Yes it is true.. he won your soul for a lousy 50 dollars
That's all you were worth to him and you know what?
He's probably forgotten all about you
and now he's moving on to his next fornication
Mum he wouldn't..
It meant nothing to him, he was using you and that is why...
you can never think about him again, ever... ever again
You got... you have got to put this thing behind you
this horrible mistake that everybody knows about...
You've seen how they look at us
You've seen how people just turn their carts around
when we walk down the isle in the market...
and how they look away at the bank
Why do you think your father doesn't come home anymore?
What if it is not something I've done...
what if it's who I am?
Don't say that. Don't you ever even think that!
You can be forgiven...maybe heavenly Father can forgive
you for what you've done but who you are...
He could never forgive something like that.
You know... I think I am going to heat up that casserole
with the cream and mushroom soup
Where are you going?
I left some stuff down the church...
Now? We just got back!
Our son... we've just come back from...
As good a time as any
Hello?
Mrs Davis.. listen, I know you don't want me to speak with your son
My son? Let me tell you something you son of a b*tch
Thanks to you my son took a razor to his wrists
Thanks to you I have lost my son
And I hope you burn, I hope you burn for ever!
Chris?
Sit down
Drink that
Toss it
That way it's medicinal
Good it's vital for a man to have a couple of
slugs in him before discussing heart ache
I think Hemingway told me that...
You knew Ernest Hemingway?
Margot actually
But beauties don't always escape tragedy
Oh God, this is hell...
I've done something
I'm guilty...
and I'll burn for it
Funny thing about guilt... there is nothing so bad that you
can't add a little guilt to it and make it worse
and there is nothing so good you can't add a little guilt to it
