eh, they're sucking something else.

Nah, Trev, you got it all wrong.

A guy wears a dress,

the other guy takes that dress off,

and then they do it up the butt.

How do you know so much about it, Mattie?

Oh, Joe.

I still don't get it. Joe!

- Let's go!

- Sixty-eight!

Why you babies stopping back there?

Let's add 20 pushups.

On my whistle, Joe's gonna count 'em out.

One, two, three...

That's right, Joe. You set the pace here.

Keep going. Attaboy, Joe.

Come on, Danny. You gonna join us sometime

before 1970 rolls around?

Let's go.

Three, two. Come on, Danny, get up!

You never shower.

I never sweat. Some people don't sweat.

I'm one of 'em.

You around this weekend?

I can't be any easier on

you, Danny. I just can't.

You understand that, right?

Yes, Dad.

Hey, hey, hey!

For only 100 bucks?

Talk about taking advantage

of a little kid...

...who's a member

of a minority group.

I got it.

Coach Winters.

Who is this?

Dad, it's me. Can we talk, please?

I'm just calling 'cause I...

I hope you're still gonna

send in the papers for

my scholarship, all right?

You know that...

Dad?

Was that Danny?

Dad?

I'm sorry, sir, but we're closed.

Can I just get a cup of coffee, please?

Sure.

Thanks.

Um, I don't suppose you're

hiring at the moment,

are you, sir?

Got any experience as a short order cook?

- No.

- Hi, everybody.

They all queers now.

It used to be poets and mobsters.

Now they just fags.

I'm real sorry, sir. Thank you.

Yeah, I'm actually late,

so I'm gonna head out now.

Good to see you.

- Be careful!

- As always!

Why, hello again, Mr. Danny.

Out for a stroll, are we?

No, no, I'm looking for Ray.

The new boys hang out a little further...

Yeah, how are you?

Hey, what's up? Yo, how you doing?

Hey, Ray? Ray!

Oh, sh*t.

Get out of my way!

Get out of here, God damn it!

You f***in' faggots, move your ass.

Get out of here.

Get the f*** out of here!

You're disturbing my friends!

Get the f*** away from here.

You f***ing cocksuckers!

What are you looking at, f*ggot?

Nothing.

Hey, where you going, cum stain?

He's pretty, yeah.

Oh, you're a pretty one, huh?

You wanna suck my dick?

I think he wants to suck your dick.

You wanna suck my dick?

No.

- Come on.

- Suck his dick!

Suck his f***in' dick!

Get in there right now.

Hey, hey!

Oh, sh*t! No! No!

She's got a temper, huh?

No!

Still got a temper, f*ggot? Huh?

No, no!

Stop. Stop!

You know what, I don't even want him

to suck my dick no more!

Look at his mouth. It's

all full of blood and sh*t.

That's disgusting.

Heavenly Father, we

thank you for this food.

For these and all your blessings,

God's holy name be blessed and praised

through Jesus Christ, our Lord, amen.

Amen.

They showed a film in school today.

We younger kids were not allowed to see it.

I wonder why.

Mr. Truman Capote,

who wrote In Cold

Blood, is also a homosexual.

Maybe that's why

I wasn't allowed to see that movie either.

Phoebe, we're having dinner, thank you.

Well, I also really want

to see Dr. Doolittle.

- He talks to animals.

- Hmm.

Maybe you should see that movie, Dad.

Maybe he could get you to talk.

You finding this amusing, Danny?

No, sir.

"No, sir."

Can I borrow your car tonight, Mom?

Joe wants me to hang out with him.

Don't be home too late.

I won't.

Brent, do you really think

it was such a good idea?

Sheriff Goodwin was great, honey.

He laid it all out.

I don't even think it's true,

and I don't know why you do.

There are signs,

and if you don't wanna see them,

that's fine, but I do.

This is WTTV FM,

rocking Brooktown all night long.

They're not gonna go, Joe,

I'm telling you right now.

Hey, Danny.

We're taking bets on who's

goin' to the World Series.

Joe picks the Mets.

Yeah, I guess.

See? He knows.

- Danny knows.

- Hi, Danny.

- Hey.

- Sarah got into Syracuse.

- Oh, yeah?

- Did you hear from Columbia?

Yeah.

Hey, about time you showed up.

Bye, guys.

I don't know. Danny's just weird.

He never wants to stick around.

Come on, babe. Let's go, too.

I gotta get the car back.

Okay. Bye, guys.

Hey.

God, that f***in' film!

Yep. They were creepy-looking men.

Half the f***in' faculty

look like those guys.

Joe, don't be stupid. He meant it for us...

At least he meant it for me.

He even dragged poor Sheriff Goodwin along,

telling me he was on to us.

Hey.

I can't wait to get out of this place.

Joe, wait. Wait, wait! Wait, wait!

What?

Do you think we're sick?

It's just nothing. It's not anything.

Cool it!

We're just fooling around.

Sarah won't do anything.

You don't even have a girlfriend.

It's more than that. I just...

I really like you, Joe.

Don't f***ing say that.

This is just for now.

We're not faggots.

Just relax, Danny. Relax.

Looks like our Johnny Boy

didn't take his girl right home, huh?

A little stopover first.

A little bit of hanky-panky, man.

Excuse me.

Matt, where you going?

Shh!

Where are you going?

Going to surprise them.

Oh, no!

What was that?

What was that?

Don't be a stranger!

Ray? Ray!

Hey, Columbia.

Wait!

Wow, nice digs.

Where you been?

I was away for a while.

Yeah?

The f*** happen to you?

Nothing. I've been lookin' for you.

Nothing?

Nothing will do that, all right.

Come on.

Where we going?

What, you got a better option?

No.

Hurry up!

What took you so long?

What are you waiting for?

You're handsome!

It's okay.

Listen, this is only temporary

because we could find a real place

'cause I just made some real money.

I got a cousin.

He went to pharmacy school in California.

You know, where Judy and Liza and Lorna,

they live there with a lot of palm trees.

You could go to pharmacy school, too.

I can't go because I'm not smart like that,

but I can make a nice home.

I could clean. I could

cook arroz con pollo.

I could drive to the

supermarket in our Chevrolet,

and I could buy groceries.

It'll be so nice.

Would you like that?

Danny?

Good night.

Daniel, the Coach wants

to see you right away.

Joe...

I know everything.

Don't bother denying it. Joe told me,

and I'd seen it coming, too.

The sickness...

You, seducing him,

taking the lead.

Oh, it's such a great way to attack me

and ruin my quarterback.

You got him drunk so

he wouldn't even realize

what was going on.

I wanna do the right thing, Danny.

You need help, son,

and we're gonna get you that help.

I need you to look me in the eye, Danny,

and tell me you need help.

This is a one-time thing, Danny.

Look at me.

Say it!

This is a one-time thing, Danny. Say it!

Say it!

Your father called.

Please don't go, Danny!

Hey, hey, hey!

Please don't leave, Danny, please. Please.

Phoebe, look, I have

to, all right? I have to.

They said all these mean things at school.

I just had to get out of there.

I know, I know. You're

smarter than them, right?

They're gonna keep saying those things,

but you're not going to

believe them, are you?

No.

Look, I'm going to write you, okay?
