Were The World Mine Page #4
I woke up this morning.
People were staring at us.
Stare back.
People are just jealous...
'cause I'm with
the best fellow in town.
People can change.
If they experienced that,
they might.
Look.
How many people
are in this town?
Ten-thousand, maybe.
Let's go.
- Why?
- I've got people to change.
Game's over, sport!
What?
I missed you.
Get the hell off of him!
Leave him alone!
He's just messin'
with your head.
He's mine!
Stop teasing him and go
back to your cheerleader!
Any love I had
for her is gone, I swear.
Max, you love Frankie!
You know I know.
Yes! Thank you.
I love you.
When I vow, I weep.
My tears do tell the truth.
I am going insane, officially!
Found the fags!
You a**hole!
Stop it!
He's mine!
No! No!
Can you please
let me in on this!
Who is this goddess?
Nymph!
- Perfect!
- Divine!
Timothy, I love you.
I swear on my life I do.
I love you more
than he ever could.
Prove it!
You want to fight?
You're on, jock boy!
Max!
- You comin'?
- Let loose!
Be certain.
I don't love you anymore.
Follow, if you dare.
Get off me!
Timothy, have we had
our fun yet?
Go away!
Donna!
Darling, please don't
leave me out here alone.
Think of what
we could do together!
I am not a lesbian!
Nora! Darling!
Lawrence!
I can see your light on.
Driskill, I have a wife!
If she doesn't ask,
you don't have to... tell.
# NO! NO! NO! #
# NO, NO, NO #
Jock boy, shed none;
it's all mine.
I fought with everything
I had, but it wasn't enough.
My heart belongs to Jonathon.
- I don't exist without you.
- You do.
It's late.
You should go home.
Be gone then!
...where moments ago the Mayor
made the shocking announcement
that he will be leaving
his wife of 11 years.
He also said that Kingston
licenses to any couple in love.
The mayor issued
this statement:
"The Constitution prohibits
the making of laws
based on religion.
Therefore, excluding
legions of citizens from
this sanctified institution
because of religious
belief is immoral,
unconstitutional and silly. "
I woke up this morning
with an extra skip in my step.
Timmy!
There are dozens
of local couples
who are ready
to take the plunge.
We'd only be guessing
at how many couples
have driven long distances
today to take advantage
of this landmark
turn of events.
We've known
each other for 20 years.
We've been neighbors.
And this morning
we looked at each other
and we just knew
this was the right thing.
We have a new
perspective on life.
What about 'em?
We have families.
We have values.
Come on, Frankie,
answer the damn phone.
Over there, look!
Gay... gay...
gay and gay!
We'll find him.
Driskill!
Why the hell
are you still here?
I missed you.
What the hell's
gotten in to you?
That speech last night,
the dancing at practice...
We were refining
the essentials needed
to play a skillful game.
My wife wouldn't let me
in the house last night.
That makes two of us -
unlucky in love this morning.
She said,
"The course of true love...
never did run smooth."
Oh, Lawrence!
Dr. Bellinger!
Open up!
Dr. Bellinger, my family
and Cole said,
"I love Cooper!
And I want everyone
to know it."
This is not my little Cole!
There's been something
odd about him
ever since he
started that play.
And now...
Has it ever occurred to you
that I have problems too?!
You need to fix this!
Dr. Bellinger!
Look!
They're everywhere.
Who's that?
Donna, darling!
Oh, sh*t.
Donna!
Donna!
I found her!
Oh, Donna, look at you!
How fresh and lovely
you look this morning.
Go!
He hasn't been here.
He'll turn up.
Yeah, in a ditch somewhere
with a hole in his head!
Don't get it.
- What if it's him?
- What if it's not?
Good morning.
Frankie! How's your song?
Where's Timothy?
He didn't come
home last night.
Where is my son?
There's a meeting
at Morgan Hill.
Is he in trouble?
You should come with me.
What about the play?
The play will go on...
just don't you
forget your guitar.
I am not leaving my son
in this place one day longer!
Please stay calm, sir.
No one needs
from this institution!
Where is Ms. Tebbit?
This is my son.
I found him
this morning in bed
with his best friend Russ.
They were holding
each other and kissing.
Believe me, I taught them
both a lesson.
"The course of true love
never did run smooth."
What did you say?
My son said the same thing!
Ladies and gentlemen,
what we have here is
a kind of coercive persuasion.
- I'm in love!
- No, you're not!
Has everyone gone insane?
He's in love!
Love!
The Bible states
that homosexuality
is contagious -
in all sorts of ways.
It's that alternative
teacher and her Shakespeare!
Shakespeare was queer, too!
- It's wicked!
- Do something!
Ladies and Gentlemen,
A MIDSUMMER NIGHT'S DREAM
is hereby cancelled.
No!
That is entirely
unfair to the boys!
They've been
working so hard...
And I am putting Ms. Tebbit
under a full investigation.
Firstly...
Mr. William Shakespeare
has never been proven
to be a homosexual.
Bisexual, perhaps.
Regardless, if you will all
kindly return this evening
for the play, I'm sure we
will all make amends.
- My son's not coming!
- No!
The play must go on!
Your concerns will fade
like a nightmare,
or with any luck,
a clandestine dream come true.
I must locate your son.
My words will appease
them only momentarily.
We looked everywhere.
I have a notion.
# OVER HILL,
OVER DALE, #
# THOROUGH BUSH,
THOROUGH BRIER, #
# THOROUGH FLOOD,
THOROUGH FIRE #
"I do wander everywhere."
# SWIFTER THAN
THE MOON'S SPHERE... #
# WE HAVE
MISTAKEN QUITE #
# AND LAID
# ON SOME
TRUE LOVE'S SIGHT #
Let me go!
Let me go!
# IS BY YOUR
REASON SWAY'D #
# WITH SUCH FORCE
# ALL THINGS
Think of your friends,
your family.
No!
WITH ALL MY HEART, #
# ALL THINGS
# WE FAIRIES, #
# OF THE SUN, #
LIKE A DREAM...#
# SEE AS THOU
"Will you rent our
ancient love asunder?"
