No, no, keep going.
It's like when you used
to play cocktail hour.
Oh, you were so good.
I was even better after sneaking
a couple of French 75s.
[LAUGHS] What's that?
Just a thoughtful note
Winston slid under my door.
[CHUCKLES]
You know, he's been even
more of an asshole lately.
That's because he is an asshole.
Then why are you still with him?
What can I say, honey?
The best dicks often
have the worst owners.
Oh, my God. Ew, do not tell me that.
Are you going to that Jack
Cole Jordan vigil later?
How do you even know about that?
Also, no.
Well, that little gay
boy is so inspiring
the way he took this tragedy
and turned it into a
call to help people.
It's not inspiring. It's opportunistic.
Anyways, I'm not going to
his performative cry-fest.
Can we talk about you seeing someone?
Now, it doesn't have to be Dr. Maxwell.
But I do think seeing
someone is a very good idea.
Look, I saw the shrink
you wanted me to see,
and it didn't work.
Okay, fine, fuck therapy.
How about acupuncture?
Now, I know this older
woman. She's on the west bank.
You think the thing that's
gonna fix me getting shot
is me getting stabbed?
This is with needles,
and it's not like
Julian, where are we going?
- Well, I'm going to the mall.
- I'll drive.
You know, I just need to change first.
Brodie, can we talk about this?
Sorry, I wanna spend some
quality time with my brother.
Let's go.
What do you think I should wear?
Okay, take it down, like, one notch.
[UPBEAT MUSIC]
Are you sure the babies
aren't gonna suffocate on that?
Look, I've gotta bring
something to the sip and see,
and dinosaurs are dope and
transcend gender binaries.
They'll love it. So
what do you need to get?
Nothing, came to hang out.
Oh, cool.
Hey.
So how do you know everyone here?
Because they're my friends. That's Jojo.
Her boyfriend's a pilot for Delta,
so I get all the gossip on new routes
and what they're adding to their fleet.
Right, I mean, you see them here,
but don't you wanna, like,
I don't know, meet a
girl or make real friends?
These are my real friends.
Right, cool.
Okay, when someone invites
you into their home,
don't be a dick, all right?
I'm not. I'm just looking at it
Yes, you were. Look, I get it, okay?
It's really easy to look past
this place and these people
and think in a world with Amazon,
why does a mall even
need to exist, right?
I mean, yeah.
But it does exist.
Even if you can't see it,
even if you ignore it, it's still here.
Brodie, just because something
isn't cool or whatever,
it doesn't mean it doesn't have value.
It just means that you
might need to look harder.

It was my first time.

Thanks for picking up

I usually do when someone
calls eight times in a row

It's fine. It's for a good reason.
- Happy I could get him off.
- You got him off?
Don't make a "get him off" joke.
Anyway, he got a warning.
Also, you do know that
this is not the kind
of law that I practice, right?
Right, but doesn't every
lawyer have to learn
about mall cruising cases
the first week of law school?
You know, start with
the important stuff.
Right, the fundamentals.
Also, it's nice to you
stepping up for Julian.
I'm nice. Everybody knows that.
- Brodie, can we go?
- One second.
So Ruthie and Shar are
having this thing for everyone
to come meet the babies
today. Wanna come?
I wish I could, but I
gotta get back to work.
- I'm swamped.
- Okay.
Can we at least hang out soon?
I wanna see you.
Yeah, maybe.
Hey, don't worry, okay?
If I got arrested every time I cruised,
I'd be doing 25 to life.
Thanks.
So was it a glory hole situation,
or were y'all going under stall?
Funny.
I can't believe I
didn't know you were gay.
Why didn't you tell me?
I don't know why you're so surprised.
- We don't talk.
- That is not true.
I know for a fact
I sent you that horny
frog meme on your birthday.
- You did, two years ago.
- Wow.
It's a pretty basic meme, too.
Yeah, I'd seen it,
like, a thousand times.
Holy shit, Brenda and Winston
are gonna fucking lose
it when they find out.
Look, I can be with you when
you tell them if you want.
Oh, they already know.
They've known for, like, two years.
And they didn't freak out?
Sorry.
I guess a lot has
changed since I've left.
Yeah, that's kind of what happens.
Okay.
Like, maybe we haven't talked before,
but that doesn't mean
we can't now, right?
I wanna know everything.
Are you going to bars?
Who are your gays? Do I know them?
The whole gay scene
really isn't my thing.
Isn't your thing?
Fuck, look, let me
make up for lost time.
I'm going to be the
Aladdin to your Jasmine
and show you a whole
new world of faggotry.
Brodie, I was arrested for sucking dick
in a bathroom stall
today. I think I'm good.
Julian, shut up and
get on the magic carpet.
There will be go-go boys and dick pics.
Have you even seen "Aladdin"?
No, just take me home.

Great, just put it

Oh, sorry so much.
So the party's going well.
On one hand, it's so nice

She won't go to the vigil.
You know what she will do?

Well, you gotta admire a sex drive
that can survive a massive hate crime.
I do admire it, okay, but I just wish
she'd acknowledge she going through it,
instead of pretending like her
biggest problem is getting off.
Honestly, it's my only problem.
I totally get it.
When my dog died, I
couldn't cum for a week.
You just gotta get creative.
Be a teenager about it.
Like, jerk off wherever
and whenever you can.
Public bathrooms, cars, the bus.
Girl, how have you not been arrested?
Trust me, you have a
block. You gotta clear it.
Hey, babe.
Can you go get those blankets

Been there.

There was this two-month period
when I discovered
those weird Czech videos
where the dudes' bodies
would be half in a wall.
People's faces were a
total turnoff for months.
I've seen those videos. I'd
work at a place like that.
You'd be terrible at a place like that.
Fuck you. I'd be a star.
No, that is a pillow princess job.
You like doing the work.
Aw, I do like doing the work.

You're not going to the

Right? Fucking thank you.
Shar keeps pushing it,
saying it'll be cathartic.

"Come on down. See the crying fag."
- They wouldn't call you a fag.
- I know.
I miss being called a fag.
I'm a woman of fag experience.

I'd like to make a toast!
First, I wanna thank
Ruthie, my best friend,
since well, since
we were young enough
that calling someone your best friend
was a very loaded set of words.
You know, Ryan Andrews stopped
being my friend all together
when I gave the title to Ruthie,
but that sacrifice was worth it.
He got kicked out of school
because he wouldn't stop
taking his dick out in class.
Regardless, I wanna wish
you and Shar all the best
in your new journey as parents.
I especially wanna thank Shar
because even though
they don't like me
What kind of toast is this?
I want to thank you
because you still let me be your donor.
You let me play a little part
in bringing these two
beauties into the world.
To Flotsam and Jetsam!
To Florence and Jett, but thank you.
But most importantly,
I wanna raise a toast
to all you wonderful people here today.
All these great
Allies.
I mean, if it weren't for you,
who would ask us if we were okay?
Who would tell us about all the ways
that the most traumatic
night of our lives
was, kind of, sort of
actually almost about them?
I mean, 'cause that's the takeaway here.
You know, this party,
the vigil tonight, hell,
the shooting itself,
it's really all about you.
To these heroes.
Wow.
Someone making someone else's moment
about them. Can you imagine?
Okay, Shar, let's give him a break.
What? Give him a break?
The person in our home
insulting the people
we work with, he needs a break?

Then I'd have some notes.
So you have kids.
It's actually crazy that you
didn't tell me that, but okay.
And now you're ignoring me. Really?
Brodie, what is happening?
I'm sorry.
Honestly, I'm just going
through a lot, okay?
And I feel really fucked up.
Noah's been ignoring me, which I get.
But I don't know.
I just thought that
after Babylon, you know,
after Daddius that

nice seeing him today.

Come on, show me the
world. Give me the gay-BCs.
Oh, okay.
Julian, you're right.
You know how to be gay.
- I have never done the apps.
- Yes, you have.
No, no, CP just makes
it too tricky, you know?
It's like, do you
mention it and get guys
that are weirdly into it,
or do you not mention it
and risk someone getting mad at you?
So, no.
Well, you know, I am
pretty good at the apps.
I have no doubt about that.
Okay, is this crazy?
What if we trade phones?
And you can build me a profile,
and I can be Grindr

Like training wheels.
Okay, I'm in.
But be careful with Grindr Brodie.

It's the least I can do.

defended him in that moment.
He was being an asshole.
I honestly don't even
care about that right now.
Just come sit down.
I've been tiptoeing around this,
but we gotta talk about it.
I'm worried about you.
- Shar.
- Just let me finish.
I'm worried about you.
I'm mad at you for
sneaking out that night,
and I'm so sorry that
something terrible happened.
But I feel like I can't
talk to you about that
because you went
through this awful thing,
and that's gonna make
me a bad guy every time,
and not being able to
talk to you scares me
because you don't seem like Ruthie.
And, look, you distant, and you hurting,
and I get that, but you also not you.
- That's not true.
- When the last time you cried?
What?
Ruthie, since I've known you,
you've been the kind of person
that cries at everything,
and I'm not just talking
"Terms of Endearment."
I'm talking gum commercials.
Okay, well, in my defense,
that was a particularly
sad gum commercial.
And I love that you cry at dumb stuff.
I do, but you haven't since
the babies were born, since
I know what it's since.
And I don't think it's that.
I've just been very sexually frustrated,
and I haven't been able to cum.
Oh, my God, can we
stop with the sex stuff?
You need to talk to someone.
And you need to go to these
vigils and let yourself grieve.
- The sex stuff, not the problem.
- Look, you're probably right.
I probably should talk to somebody.
Or fine, let's go to the vigils
if that's what you wanna do.
But the sex stuff isn't just sex stuff.
Okay, well, when I transitioned,
I didn't sleep with
anybody for a long time,
and not for a lack of trying.
Clearly, your girl's a ho-bag.
I went from being this
super cute, gay boy
who people very much wanted to fuck
to a trans woman
that well, people just
didn't see me that way anymore.
So what do you do?
Well, all you want is to feel something,
so you jerk off, but
in those early days,
the hormones made cumming
on my own feel impossible,
and suddenly, I had lost
this entire part of myself
that made me feel okay,
that made me feel alive
even at times when I
wasn't sure I wanted to be,
and it was scary, and it was lonely,
and then one day years later,
somehow without realizing it,
I had started looking
more the way I wanted to,
more like an after pic than a before.
You know, the before's
really not so bad.
It's really that weird middle picture
where you kind of, sort
of look like two aliens
that got fused together in this
weird teleportation accident.
Babe, I love you,
but I think you're losing the plot.
Right.
So I figured out makeup.
I lost my Adam's apple,
and people wanted me again.
And the hormones evened
out, and I could cum again.
I could feel alive again.
But now since that night,
that part of me is gone again.
I'm so sorry.
I didn't know.
But I know one thing.
I'm gonna fuck the
shit out of you tonight.
[CHUCKLES]
- We don't have to.
- Oh, fuck you.
You gonna give me this beautiful speech
about transness, and
sex, and self-worth?
Nothing could turn me on more.

vigil first as a family.

Oh, I can take your dick pics for you.
You do know that we're brothers,
and that's weird, right?
You asked for "Aladdin."
"Aladdin" doesn't have incest.
It should.
Might have been less problematic.
You came.
Which one of my guilt-inducing
text messages did it?
The one Julian sent.
You sneaky bitch. I love it.
Well, then you're gonna love
that I've been on Grindr for years.
Then what have we been doing here?
You got to teach me something,
which in your current, very
obvious depression spiral
meant something to you,
and I got a profile written
by a famed heartthrob.
Wow, so this how it feels to be used.
Honestly, not terrible.
So what are we gonna do tonight?
I was thinking you should
probably come stay with me for a bit.
Wait, really? Move
back into our old house?
My house, but yeah.
I feel like living alone in
a huge place all by myself
is probably not great for me right now.
And do you miss me?
I said what I said.
You know I would, but I
don't wanna bail on Julian.
Why not?
You've basically been
doing it my entire life.

Honestly
Why don't you come too?

You guys got a lot of stuff going on.
All the more reason for you to come.

Look, I love Brodie,

but when it comes down to
it, Brodie puts Brodie first.
Now, you can call me overbearing,
but I'm just worried
that when the time comes,
he might not protect you.
Well, maybe I don't need protecting.
I know you're right. I just know Brodie.
You know, I don't think you know him

Is stan account endorsement impressive?

Okay, never mind, he's trash.

I'm really glad we came to this.
Okay, Mom.
Oh, don't be a dick. I care about you.
And it seems like a lot
of other people do, too.
So is that so bad?
Yeah, okay, fine. You're right.
[LAUGHTER]
Hey, Brodie!
- Oh, shit.
- What?
I told him to come tonight.
I said you'd be here.
Why?
Because I knew you weren't coming,
but he seemed like he was struggling,
so I thought if he came,
maybe it would help him.
You bitch, all while I'm

Okay, well, in my defense,
that was a particularly
sad gum commercial.
And I love that you cry at dumb stuff.
I do, but you haven't since
the babies were born, since
I know what it's since.
And I don't think it's that.

I probably should talk to somebody.
Or fine, let's go to the vigils
if that's what you wanna do.
But the sex stuff isn't just sex stuff.
Okay, well, when I transitioned,
I didn't sleep with
anybody for a long time,
and not for a lack of trying.
Clearly, your girl's a ho-bag.
I went from being this
super cute, gay boy
who people very much wanted to fuck
to a trans woman
that well, people just
didn't see me that way anymore.
So what do you do?
Well, all you want is to feel something,
so you jerk off, but
in those early days,
the hormones made cumming
on my own feel impossible,
and suddenly, I had lost
this entire part of myself
that made me feel okay,
that made me feel alive
even at times when I
wasn't sure I wanted to be,
and it was scary, and it was lonely,
and then one day years later,
somehow without realizing it,
I had started looking
more the way I wanted to,
more like an after pic than a before.
You know, the before's
really not so bad.
It's really that weird middle picture
where you kind of, sort
of look like two aliens
that got fused together in this
weird teleportation accident.
Babe, I love you,
but I think you're losing the plot.
Right.
So I figured out makeup.
I lost my Adam's apple,
and people wanted me again.
And the hormones evened
out, and I could cum again.
I could feel alive again.
But now since that night,
that part of me is gone again.

Honestly, not terrible.
So what are we gonna do tonight?
I was thinking you should
probably come stay with me for a bit.
Wait, really? Move
back into our old house?
My house, but yeah.
I feel like living alone in
a huge place all by myself
is probably not great for me right now.
And do you miss me?
I said what I said.
You know I would, but I
don't wanna bail on Julian.
Why not?
You've basically been
doing it my entire life.
[LAUGHS]
I like him.
Honestly
Why don't you come too?
- It's a huge place.
- Oh, I'm good.
You guys got a lot of stuff going on.
All the more reason for you to come.
I'll think about it.
I'm thinking about it.
- He's in.
- Fantastic.
We'll head there right after the vigil.
Works for us.
I'll meet you there, okay?

- You okay?
- Yeah.
I can't believe it.
You're making me an empty nester.
Now I'm gonna have to
actually speak to your father.
Aww, what do you talk to a
straight man over 60 about?
Food, golf, network TV.
It's horrible.
Are you sure you wanna do this?
Mom, do you think I can't,
like, handle living away
from you or something?
I know.
I know, but you're my best friend.
- You're my best friend too.
- Mm-hmm.
Which is why I need to move away.
Look, I love Brodie,
and I'm glad he's looking out for you,
but when it comes down to
it, Brodie puts Brodie first.
Now, you can call me overbearing,
but I'm just worried
that when the time comes,
he might not protect you.
Well, maybe I don't need protecting.
I know you're right. I just know Brodie.
You know, I don't think you know him
as well as you think you do.
A mother knows her children
better than they know themselves.
Oh, so I guess you know
that Brodie's the donor
to Ruthie and Shar's babies.

I know I've been gone for a while,
but does anybody else get
Mayor Pete fake gay vibes
from him, but like evil?
I thought y'all liked
Mayor Pete ever since
- he looked hot with a beard.
- [CHUCKLES]
You know what's weird?
I don't know anybody that's fucked him.
I know a lot of fags,
and it feels like I should
know someone that's fucked him.
- Excuse me.
- Hi, hi.
Julian, thank God you're here.
Now we can stop listening to Brodie.
Yeah, he's always been
the B-list Beaumont.
Would we even go that high?
Hello, my beautiful trauma queens.
[SCATTERED APPLAUSE]
I'm so glad y'all could
make it out tonight.
Within hours of the
shooting, I posted a GoFundMe
that went viral when none other
than Lil Nas X's number one stan account
on Twitter shared it.
Is stan account endorsement impressive?
Unfortunately, yes. Ugh,
I hate that I know that.
I don't miss teaching high schoolers.
I took that fundraiser
and made something bigger.
My charity, Babyl-On, Babyl-Strong
will raise money for victims'
families as well as survivors.
Actually not survivors,
thrivers.
- Because we will thrive.
- [BOTH GAGGING]
Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, stop.
He's raising money for us.
We shouldn't make fun of him.
And while I'm up here,
I should probably address
some of the rumors.
Yes, I will be appearing
in the upcoming season
of "American Horror Story."
Okay, never mind, he's trash.
[LAUGHTER]
I'm really glad we came to this.
Okay, Mom.
Oh, don't be a dick. I care about you.
And it seems like a lot
of other people do, too.
So is that so bad?
Yeah, okay, fine. You're right.
[LAUGHTER]
Hey, Brodie!
- Oh, shit.
- What?
I told him to come tonight.
I said you'd be here.
Why?
Because I knew you weren't coming,
but he seemed like he was struggling,
so I thought if he came,
maybe it would help him.
You bitch, all while I'm
trying to get you to go,
and you're blowing me off.
Hey, those who can't do, teach.
