Noah's Arc: Jumping the Broom Page #5

Synopsis: Noah, Alex, Ricky, Chance and their significant others travel to Martha's Vineyard for a weekend wedding getaway. Drama ensues as one-by-one their relationships start to crack under the pressure of closer examination. Newly successful screenwriter Noah looks to his friends for advice as he prepares to move his relationship to a more serious level while struggling to keep his first studio movie alive. But the friends are of little help as they juggle their own issues. Elder statesmen Chance and Eddie attempt to scratch their seven-year itch but worry their marriage has permanently lost its spark. And playboy Ricky flaunts his barely legal college student fling in the face of his monogamous friends but hides a surprising secret that threatens to rock the house. Add to the mix Alex's crazy-making wedding prep, a closeted superstar rapper, a high-maintenance studio exec, and a surprise visitor and you've got the makings of a hilarious and poignant romantic comedy.

And even the teacher's Counter a little loose ...

... when nobody is looking.

There was nothing I sought, but when you fall in love, indeed.

... "if someone more masculine? "

Sometimes.

But femininity in a type is something funny.

You get used to and you stop noticing it.

Do we really want this? "

But it forces you to confront it.

To be more courageous than you ever

I will ask another round.

I hope you have not offended. Me like Mr. Nicholson. It's great.

Only now I'm trying discovered homosexuality.

And the kids my age are so impacts on different things.

And if you walk around being sexist ...

... with my pants hanging from the rear ...

- You're a real man.

- Exactly.

We all have to be 50 Cent ...

... or if Terrell Owens not fit that mold ...

... not even deserve to exist.

You know something, man?

It is.

It takes a lot more value to be yourself as who you are ...

... is someone with whom many idiots ignorant have problems.

But make no mistake.

Noah?

It is ten times more brave than I ever will be.

But what about the thing upside down?

Do not limit a bit? Like a parody of heterosexual relationships?

- What do you mean?

- Because I'm versatile, yes?

Did you ever want Mr. Nicholson f*** you?

Who says you he have not already done?

Hey.

Baby, you're drunk, baby.

- It's not fair.

- What?

I do not care the family of Wade.

Yes, but what you do about it?

He forgot the phone.

Is it prudent?

I know he would love that his family was here.

What time is it?

Hello?

"Mrs. Robinson?

"Wade?

I'm actually Noah.

But flames my son's phone.

Is something wrong?

Did something happen?

No, no, no.

Everything is fine.

It's just that ...

This is the wedding.

What wedding?

Wade's wedding.

What are you talking?

Who speaks and how do you know my son?

And why call me at this time?

- No one knows.

- Oh, this is sweet.

Wade and I ...

- Yes?

- Wade and I were married.

I'm afraid I do not understand.

Wade is married.

Who are you, Pastor?

No, I mean ...

I have marry him.

Wade and I were married.

And the thing is ...

... he would you are here.

"" Here "?

In the house of Martha's Vineyard for the wedding ...

... tomorrow.

It would mean a lot to him.

Listen, do not know who ...

... and do not know why I called at midnight ...

... saying hateful lies.

But whoever it is, let alone my son!

- The guys forgot the key.

- Well, well, well.

Let no one say a word about what just happened ...

... until you think what to say to Wade.

Okay.

Forgot gown.

I like to stay.

Surprise!

Are we going to invite to happen?

Of course.

- Curtis!

- Your old man is not, right?

The last chance to make the wild.

That is what the bachelor party.

Get away from me.

The party was fabulous.

Baby Gat talked and talked on your scripts.

And Diddy is looking for a vehicle new to his acting career.

"I Am Legend" finds its "In Pursuit of Happiness."

Where is the toilet?

- Down on ...

- Got it!

Coked.

Beautiful house.

I wear clothes.

It does not bother me.

My God, boys ...

... They are Brandy and Baby Gat.

What do I do?

Want my advice?

Probably not, but in these circumstances themselves.

Sleep with Baby Gat ...

... but I know what the British call "bad in bed".

So lose interest.

Without principles, but psychologically effective.

I sleep with Baby Gat.

A useful suggestion, please?

Offer him a drink.

Great!

You Keep them busy here ...

... while I clear my mind and Wade will tell how ...

... I just tell his mother he's gay.

And I wear clothes.

I wear clothes.

Ricky is in love with Noah.

So nobody is attracted.

It is not against marriage.

It is against Noah to marry someone other than him.

That makes sense, really.

You know, you're pretty smart.

If it were so smart, have devised a way ...

... to tell my parents without completely disinherit me.

When we discover, let me know.

Wait, did not you tell your parents?

But you're getting married.

Yes, well, I guess that makes me dumber than I look.

Now, when I was at the party Oprah's Christmas last year ...

Baby, please.

You were not in Oprah's house.

Yes, I was.

Santa Barbara.

Is the promised land of the real estate? Does Oprah's house?

Back off, it will explode.

Tell me everything.

Start with the kitchen!

Yes, I'm not much into the kitchen.

Anyway, look at me O ...

... look at Beyonce, looks back at me ...

... and says:

"They could be twins."

I know.

- What?

- My God.

No, seriously, what happens?

Are you hiding from me?

I needed air.

What's wrong?

You tell me.

I had two days claustrophobic ...

... of fights, arguments ...

couples on the brink ...

divorce.

To overcome this, just ...

... to discover that the family of Wade not known he is homosexual.

If it takes you where the commitment long term, not to mention ...

... marriage,

Why do this?

How do I know?

I never aspired to marital status.

The old man used to wear my mother as sandbag.

She never left him.

Once stabbed him, but never left him.

Curtis that is horrible.

It's what I say.

What do you do?

Live free or die ...

... Noah Nehemiah Nicholson.

Live free or die.

Thanks for sharing that.

Curtis.

Curtis.

Curtis, out!

Crap.

Sure you'll be fine, Mr. Robinson?

I'm fine.

Sorry, guys. I did not think I had taken both.

There is a real farewell unless someone vomit.

I'll change clothes.

What's wrong with you?

Can we not have a moment no genuine attempt ...

... without you want to sleep with me?

- Sorry, I could not help it.

- You're too sexy.

- Come on.

You change your clothes.

You freeze.

Is it a hot tub?

Yes

I'll race you!

What?

Baby Gat, yes!

Curtis!

Nobody can beat me!

Do you realize you're naked and it's very cold?

You know you're crazy?

You're completely crazy.

I'm crazy about you!

Come on!

You exit the tub.

No, salt.

Simply, no!

What about Curtis?

Stupid.

As you take off your clothes.

That means you have to know Diana.

I say, Miss Ross.

Her son Evan and I are almost best friends.

Her acting career is also rising.

Tell me you saw him in "ATL".

Sure, b*tch.

He is young but is well!

Yeah, baby, you can get.

Seriously, b*tch.

Who would you say b*tch?

I thought you seriously angry.

That is not the problem.

You love me.

No, no ...

... I love you.

I love Wade.

Your mouth says Wade but your penis says Curtis.

No, not so.

John R. Gordon

John R Gordon (born 1964) is a white gay writer and resident of Shepherds Bush, London, England, whose work - novels, plays, screenplays and biography - centers black characters and explores the complex, subtle and troubling intersections of race, sexuality and class. With Rikki Beadle-Blair he founded and runs queer-of-colour-centric indie press Team Angelica.
