Love, Simon Page #6
I have something
I need to tell you.
Mom, there's something
I have to tell you.
Can we talk?
- Yeah.
- Mm-hmm.
I'm straight.
I'm straight.
I'm sorry, Mom, it's true.
I like girls.
(coughing)
I like men.
You get that
from your daddy's side.
I'm in love with Nick.
I feel like I've been raising
a stranger.
Yes, absolutely, you have.
I'm heterosexual.
Oh, God. Help me, Jesus. Please.
SIMON:
Or maybe it's becauseI can't be sure
this whole "being gay" thing
is forever.
Or maybe it's that there's
not that much
of high school left
and part of me
wants to hold on to
who I've always been
just a little longer.
And then, when I go to college
in Los Angeles,
I'll be gay and proud,
I promise.
("I wanna dance with somebody"
playing)
Woo!
Ooh, yeah, uh-huh
Yeah
I want to dance
Oh! I wanna dance
With somebody
I wanna feel the heat
With somebody
Yeah! I wanna dance
with somebody
Don't you wanna dance
Say you wanna dance
Don't you wanna dance
Oh
Oh oh
Yeah, maybe not that gay.
SIMON:
I'm not surewho I'm promising.
I'll keep ruminating.
Love, Jacques.
Sh*t!
TAYLOR:
So, yeah,after swimming with dolphins,
we fly to Saint Martin
for New Year's.
Anybody else,
Christmas in the Caribbean?
Staying here.
We have a classic
Spier tradition
of French toast
on Christmas Eve.
I'm going to an unheated
vacation house
in the middle of nowhere.
As is our bleak
family tradition.
(winces) Ow! Ow!
Oh, man. Oh.
You okay?
Oh, yeah, that's a paper cut.
Overdramatic.
Um, Simon, do you know
where the bandages are?
Yeah. They're just
in the supply closet.
Okay, do you mind showing me?
Be right back.
He's like a nurse, this man.
Okay, I don't actually have
a paper cut.
I know that, Martin.
You're a very bad actor.
What, you think this is funny?
Simon, look,
I don't wanna have to
leak your emails, all right?
But I will.
Look, you cannot
bring Blue into this, okay?
If he found out
that my emails got leaked,
he'd get totally freaked,
all right?
He'd never talk to me again.
Yeah, probably not, you know?
The Internet's a freaky place
to meet people.
- Yo.
- Hey!
Hey!
- Fun movie! Freak.
- Freaky Friday.
- That's a fun movie!
- Freaky, freak, freaky.
- Yeah, freaky-deaky Dutch!
- She's a super freak
- BOTH:
Super freak- You guys are weird.
I need a Band-Aid.
Those programs are a b*tch.
Erm, yo. Martin was having
trouble running his lines
and we were thinking
we could go
to Waffle House
and go over 'em.
- Really?
- Yeah.
That would be great.
I'm insky.
- Good work, Spier.
- Go to hell, Martin.
(cell phone chimes)
BLUE:
Jacques,if I were a betting man,
I'd say you were
drunk emailing me
during that last letter.
Don't worry. I liked it.
As for coming out,
I know what you mean
about wanting to wait
till college.
But our emails
have inspired me.
I'm going to tell my family.
So thanks, Jacques.
Love, Blue.
(indistinct chatter)
Yeah.
MARTIN:
Hey!- Madame.
- ABBY:
Oh.(chuckles) Simon...
How the thespians
rehearse, right?
LYLE:
Hey, guys.What can I get you?
Lyle! You guys know Lyle?
We have Latin together.
ABBY:
I don't think so.Hi. How's it going?
Actually, we had Bio together
last year?
- SIMON:
Oh, really?- It's Simon, right?
Yeah. Yeah, sorry,
I don't, um...
It's okay.
It was like a big class,
and I have a good memory
for faces.
What can I get you guys?
MARTIN:
Well, we planon being here for a while.
So, we're gonna start off small
and go larger.
Probably get some bacon first,
some sausage. I'd say...
ABBY:
"You're right. I'm muchtoo strange and extraordinary.
Much! And much too distracting!"
Wow.
And you never did any acting
at your old school?
No. Can we get back to...
And yet,
you're from D.C., right?
Yeah. Can you give me
my next cue, though?
MARTIN:
So whydid you move here?
Because my parents got divorced
and my aunt found us
an apartment in her building.
Why'd they get divorced?
Why does it matter, Martin?
Are you writing a book
about girls
from a broken home in D.C.?
So?
I thought that my dad
was the greatest person
on the planet.
But it turns out that he's
just a sad, tired loser
who hates his job,
drinks way too much beer,
and cheats on his wife.
To make up for all the stuff
that I just mentioned, so...
Well, I'm sorry to hear that.
Yeah.
You deserve the father
that you thought you had.
You know what, Abby?
You deserve
a goddamn superhero.
Okay, thank you.
Let's get back to the...
Say it.
What?
I wanna hear you say
"I, Abby Susso,
am an incredible young woman
and deserve
a goddamn superhero."
I'm not gonna say that, Martin.
Okay. Well, um...
I won't stop until you say it.
ABBY:
Okay.- What are you...
- Excuse me.
- ABBY:
Martin. Martin, stop.- Pardon the interruption.
- BOTH:
Martin.I would just like to say
that Abby Susso here
is an incredible young woman.
Martin, please.
And deserves
a goddamn superhero.
- Okay, okay...
- That's right. Abby Susso!
Abby Susso is an incredible
young woman!
ABBY:
I'm Abby Susso!Incredible young woman,
and deserves...
- A goddamn superhero.
- A goddamn superhero.
- A goddamn superhero!
- A goddamn superhero!
A goddamn superhero!
Yeah.
All right.
(claps)
Breakthrough. Yeah.
Okay, you can all go back
to your meals. Thank you.
Please sit down. Please.
- (Martin clears throat)
- (Abby sighs)
Well...
Well, let's get back to...
- my entrance into your song.
- I'm gonna take five.
MARTIN:
"Ah, the Kit Kat Klubproudly presents...
I'll be right back.
...a beautiful woman
coming straight from England."
Sally Bowles, everybody."
Hey.
Were you in Bio when they did
that identifying leaves test?
Yes. And Joel Winslow
ate that poison ivy.
Because Doug Fogerty told him
it was pot.
- Right. (laughs)
- SIMON:
Poor Joel.I think he just wants
to be liked 'cause...
you ever notice that he has
extra pens in his backpack?
Like, you know,
he's just waiting for the day
to ask him for a pen?
And then he can be that guy
to give 'em a pen.
You see everything,
don't you, Simon?
I don't know.
But Simon means
"the one who hears"
and Spier means
"the one who sees"
so you put that all together
and pretty sure that means
I was just destined
to be up
in everybody's business.
I've gotta get back inside
and scrub down
some waffle irons.
- Duty calls.
- Indeed.
I'll see you in there.
Yeah, I'll see ya.
(cell phone chimes)
Hi.
BLUE:
So my dad's flying intonight for Hanukkah.
If you are thinking,
"But Hanukkah isn't
for another month!"
Well, you are correct.
Welcome to navigating
divorced parents.
Take holidays
where you can get them.
And my dad's staying at the
We'll do all our
horribly awkward traditions.
We'll light the menorah
and I'll silently pray
