1
00:00:19,853 --> 00:00:21,389
BLANCA:
Why are we the only ones
2
00:00:21,422 --> 00:00:23,424
-out here?
-PRAY TELL: Who wants to come
3
00:00:23,457 --> 00:00:25,359
to the most remote
part of New York?
4
00:00:25,393 --> 00:00:27,328
You'd think people would come
to pay their respects.
5
00:00:27,361 --> 00:00:29,997
Out of sight, out of mind.
6
00:00:30,030 --> 00:00:31,432
(exhales) I'm tired.
7
00:00:31,465 --> 00:00:33,434
I've been to three funerals
this week.
8
00:00:33,467 --> 00:00:35,169
Three. Where's the cure?
9
00:00:35,203 --> 00:00:37,338
BLANCA:
Look, we got to keep it
together today, Pray.
10
00:00:37,371 --> 00:00:39,273
We got a long day ahead of us.
11
00:00:39,307 --> 00:00:41,041
I know.
12
00:00:41,075 --> 00:00:42,843
I'm sorry, I just...
13
00:00:42,876 --> 00:00:44,878
It upsets me.
14
00:00:47,548 --> 00:00:50,050
(door opens, closes)
15
00:01:05,099 --> 00:01:08,035
His name is... was Keenan.
16
00:01:08,068 --> 00:01:10,271
Keenan Howard.
17
00:01:10,304 --> 00:01:12,740
I'm here to see...
his burial site.
18
00:01:12,773 --> 00:01:14,575
He's a relation of yours?
19
00:01:14,608 --> 00:01:16,377
Not exactly.
20
00:01:16,410 --> 00:01:19,813
We dated, we broke up.
Listen.
21
00:01:19,847 --> 00:01:21,382
He died of pneumonia
22
00:01:21,415 --> 00:01:24,485
-and I was told
he was buried here.
-Here's the thing.
23
00:01:24,518 --> 00:01:26,554
Names don't matter here.
24
00:01:26,587 --> 00:01:28,956
Just a bunch of pine boxes
in a ditch.
25
00:01:28,989 --> 00:01:30,758
-So no headstones?
-Welcome to Hart Island.
26
00:01:30,791 --> 00:01:32,560
Just a mass grave
of people whose families
27
00:01:32,593 --> 00:01:33,927
couldn't afford a burial
28
00:01:33,961 --> 00:01:36,264
or unclaimed bodies
from the morgue.
29
00:01:36,297 --> 00:01:39,233
Infants are out back
in Potter's Field.
30
00:01:39,267 --> 00:01:41,101
We quarantine the ones
that died of AIDS,
31
00:01:41,135 --> 00:01:42,970
don't want them infecting
anyone else, you know.
32
00:01:43,003 --> 00:01:44,972
But they're already dead.
33
00:01:45,005 --> 00:01:46,840
Sweetie, we don't know
how this thing is spread.
34
00:01:49,677 --> 00:01:52,012
Come on, Pray.
35
00:01:54,114 --> 00:01:56,116
(machinery clanking in distance)
36
00:02:10,164 --> 00:02:12,500
How did Keenan end up here?
37
00:02:12,533 --> 00:02:16,103
-I thought he had family.
-No.
38
00:02:16,136 --> 00:02:18,872
Orphaned just like
the rest of us.
39
00:02:18,906 --> 00:02:21,175
After we broke up,
I heard that he had gotten sick
40
00:02:21,209 --> 00:02:23,244
and I tried to reach out.
41
00:02:25,746 --> 00:02:28,316
But I think that he...
42
00:02:28,349 --> 00:02:30,618
he was embarrassed...
43
00:02:30,651 --> 00:02:32,386
about getting sick.
44
00:02:33,721 --> 00:02:36,156
He died alone.
45
00:02:37,191 --> 00:02:39,893
In that tiny studio apartment.
46
00:02:40,994 --> 00:02:43,231
In the dead of summer.
47
00:02:43,264 --> 00:02:45,266
Three weeks before
anybody found him.
48
00:02:47,100 --> 00:02:49,470
Was lying in the heat
for so long,
49
00:02:49,503 --> 00:02:52,306
-I heard that his body just
melted into the mattress.
-Mm-mmm, mm-mmm.
50
00:02:52,340 --> 00:02:55,476
I'm not settling
for this, Pray.
51
00:02:55,509 --> 00:02:58,646
We got to do something.
52
00:02:58,679 --> 00:02:59,913
-Right?
-Yeah.
53
00:02:59,947 --> 00:03:01,515
(sniffles)
54
00:03:05,753 --> 00:03:07,755
PRAY TELL:
Only way this isn't
gonna be our reality
55
00:03:07,788 --> 00:03:09,890
is if we help each other.
56
00:03:09,923 --> 00:03:13,361
'Cause they sure as hell
aren't gonna do anything. Trust.
57
00:03:16,264 --> 00:03:17,898
There it is.
58
00:03:23,304 --> 00:03:27,107
Judy told me about this place
and I didn't believe her.
59
00:03:27,140 --> 00:03:29,877
She... she said this island
60
00:03:29,910 --> 00:03:32,045
used to be a tuberculosis ward.
61
00:03:33,947 --> 00:03:36,216
Now it's a burial site.
(sniffles)
62
00:03:36,250 --> 00:03:38,419
Each one of these
heart-shaped rocks
63
00:03:38,452 --> 00:03:40,688
represents someone buried here,
64
00:03:40,721 --> 00:03:43,724
left by someone left behind.
65
00:03:56,404 --> 00:03:57,805
(kisses)
66
00:04:11,652 --> 00:04:13,654
So, what now?
67
00:04:15,423 --> 00:04:16,724
We pray.
68
00:04:16,757 --> 00:04:18,759
(Pray Tell sniffles)
69
00:04:20,661 --> 00:04:22,796
We pray for strength...
70
00:04:24,465 --> 00:04:27,735
...to keep fighting.
71
00:04:27,768 --> 00:04:29,770
Yeah.
72
00:04:34,642 --> 00:04:36,644
(sniffles)
73
00:04:46,720 --> 00:04:48,689
(door opens)
74
00:04:48,722 --> 00:04:50,691
(footfalls approach)
75
00:04:50,724 --> 00:04:53,461
PRAY TELL:
The category is...
76
00:04:53,494 --> 00:04:56,029
Live...
77
00:04:56,063 --> 00:04:58,532
Work...
78
00:04:58,566 --> 00:05:02,302
Pose!
79
00:05:05,373 --> 00:05:07,375
*
80
00:05:27,495 --> 00:05:30,163
(indistinct announcement
over P.A.)
81
00:05:33,601 --> 00:05:35,569
-Hi, Blanca.
You want to come in?
-Hi. Yeah.
82
00:05:35,603 --> 00:05:36,904
Yeah.
83
00:05:36,937 --> 00:05:39,473
(exhales)
84
00:05:39,507 --> 00:05:42,910
This place is like the Taj Mahal
compared to St. Vincent's.
85
00:05:42,943 --> 00:05:44,344
You know they had me
on a six-week
86
00:05:44,378 --> 00:05:47,347
waiting list just to get
a doctor to read my labs.
87
00:05:47,381 --> 00:05:50,684
By the way, thank you for
squeezing me in like this.
88
00:05:50,718 --> 00:05:52,920
Anything for family, kid.
89
00:05:52,953 --> 00:05:55,389
So, what does it say?
90
00:05:55,423 --> 00:05:56,924
I tried reading my labs
when I picked it up,
91
00:05:56,957 --> 00:06:00,160
but... it all looked like
Klingon to me.
92
00:06:00,193 --> 00:06:01,762
Well, your red blood cells
are good.
93
00:06:01,795 --> 00:06:03,831
-I'm just checking out
your CD4s.
-See?
94
00:06:03,864 --> 00:06:05,833
There you go again
speaking that Klingon.
95
00:06:05,866 --> 00:06:07,200
English, please?
96
00:06:07,234 --> 00:06:10,938
CD4s, or T-cells,
are what we want a lot of.
97
00:06:10,971 --> 00:06:14,374
So... how many I gots?
98
00:06:14,408 --> 00:06:15,676
'Cause I know I got a lot.
99
00:06:15,709 --> 00:06:16,944
I stopped drinking,
100
00:06:16,977 --> 00:06:18,446
I take my Flintstone vitamins
every day.
101
00:06:18,479 --> 00:06:21,114
Well, sometimes being healthy
isn't enough for this virus.
102
00:06:21,148 --> 00:06:23,784
Your T-cells have fallen
bellow 200.
103
00:06:23,817 --> 00:06:25,719
What's...
So? What's that mean?
104
00:06:25,753 --> 00:06:28,021
It means we have to start
monitoring you once a month
105
00:06:28,055 --> 00:06:29,690
instead of every three months.
106
00:06:29,723 --> 00:06:32,259
And we have to move your
diagnosis of being HIV-positive
107
00:06:32,292 --> 00:06:33,894
to having AIDS.
108
00:06:35,896 --> 00:06:37,397
What?
109
00:06:52,112 --> 00:06:54,648
S...
110
00:06:54,682 --> 00:06:56,784
So I have AIDS now?
111
00:06:58,151 --> 00:07:00,320
Well, it's-it's just a number.
112
00:07:00,353 --> 00:07:03,457
It's a way of flagging
how much care a patient needs.
113
00:07:03,491 --> 00:07:05,058
Nah, I've been feeling fine.
114
00:07:05,092 --> 00:07:06,760
I've been feeling
amazing, actually.
115
00:07:06,794 --> 00:07:09,162
Last winter,
when my kids got sick,
116
00:07:09,196 --> 00:07:11,098
I didn't have a sniffle at all.
117
00:07:11,131 --> 00:07:13,133
I mean, sometimes you can't tell
what HIV is doing
118
00:07:13,166 --> 00:07:15,969
-to your immune system.
-So I'm dying.
119
00:07:16,003 --> 00:07:17,571
No.
You're not dying.
120
00:07:17,605 --> 00:07:19,907
You still have plenty
of T-cells to fight with,
121
00:07:19,940 --> 00:07:22,409
but we can't let those numbers
drop any lower.
122
00:07:22,442 --> 00:07:23,777
So what do I do?
123
00:07:23,811 --> 00:07:26,079
It ain't no cure for this thing.
124
00:07:26,113 --> 00:07:27,481
Not yet.
125
00:07:29,349 --> 00:07:31,685
But there is this.
126
00:07:31,719 --> 00:07:35,355
AZT. It helps slow
the progression of the virus
127
00:07:35,388 --> 00:07:38,358
-and it's all we've got.
-Ain't that stuff for rich folk?
128
00:07:38,391 --> 00:07:40,528
Well, pharmaceutical companies
are in the business
129
00:07:40,561 --> 00:07:42,830
of making a profit,
but there are folks
130
00:07:42,863 --> 00:07:45,298
in our community who care
about the less fortunate.
131
00:07:45,332 --> 00:07:48,368
And they're the ones who can
get us this shit for free.
132
00:07:50,003 --> 00:07:52,806
When the wealthy white queens
and their friends know
133
00:07:52,840 --> 00:07:56,343
that the end is coming close,
they call us.
134
00:07:58,378 --> 00:08:00,914
It's the same thing every time.
135
00:08:05,218 --> 00:08:07,220
We pay our respects.
136
00:08:08,421 --> 00:08:10,390
We say our goodbyes.
137
00:08:10,423 --> 00:08:13,661
And then we collect
the leftover meds.
138
00:08:13,694 --> 00:08:16,697
Their dying wishes
are to make sure that the grief
139
00:08:16,730 --> 00:08:19,199
isn't the only thing
they're leaving behind.
140
00:08:19,232 --> 00:08:22,369
Some of them
just have antibiotics.
141
00:08:23,871 --> 00:08:27,007
But the rich ones
always have AZT.
142
00:08:27,040 --> 00:08:28,508
BLANCA:
Pray Tell told me about
143
00:08:28,542 --> 00:08:31,011
a friend of his
who was on these meds.
144
00:08:33,280 --> 00:08:36,850
He said it was
as toxic as chemo.
145
00:08:36,884 --> 00:08:40,988
And once he got on 'em,
his body completely gave out.
146
00:08:41,021 --> 00:08:42,890
Blanca, I'm gonna
be straight with you
147
00:08:42,923 --> 00:08:44,524
because you need to hear this.
148
00:08:44,558 --> 00:08:48,228
You're in denial of what HIV
is doing to your body.
149
00:08:48,261 --> 00:08:49,830
If you don't do something
about it soon, you're
150
00:08:49,863 --> 00:08:51,865
-gonna be dead in six months.
-No.
151
00:08:51,899 --> 00:08:54,401
Listen, they're working on
new drugs every day.
152
00:08:54,434 --> 00:08:56,169
You just got to stay alive
long enough
153
00:08:56,203 --> 00:08:57,871
for something better
to come along.
154
00:09:02,109 --> 00:09:04,044
You know...
155
00:09:04,077 --> 00:09:05,713
it's moments like these
that make your life
156
00:09:05,746 --> 00:09:08,248
flash right before you.
157
00:09:08,281 --> 00:09:11,018
Crazy thing is,
it's... not my life
158
00:09:11,051 --> 00:09:14,054
I'm seeing right now,
it's my kids.
159
00:09:14,087 --> 00:09:16,056
It's my kids.
160
00:09:18,892 --> 00:09:20,861
(takes deep breath)
161
00:09:20,894 --> 00:09:24,031
Everything in this life is
set up to work against them.
162
00:09:24,064 --> 00:09:25,933
There is still
163
00:09:25,966 --> 00:09:28,702
so much in their lives
that I have to fix.
164
00:09:28,736 --> 00:09:31,038
We have a saying around here:
165
00:09:31,071 --> 00:09:33,073
either get busy living,
166
00:09:33,106 --> 00:09:35,976
or you get busy dying.
167
00:09:37,277 --> 00:09:39,747
And you've got a lot
to live for.
168
00:09:44,752 --> 00:09:46,119
(Angel chuckles)
169
00:09:46,153 --> 00:09:47,621
-(camera whirring)
-LIL PAPI: Darling.
170
00:09:47,655 --> 00:09:49,122
That one's gonna be good.
171
00:09:49,156 --> 00:09:51,124
-(Angel chuckles)
-(camera whirring)
172
00:09:51,158 --> 00:09:52,592
LIL PAPI:
Yeah.
173
00:09:52,626 --> 00:09:54,995
-Hey, can you do me a favor?
-ANGEL: Stop.
174
00:09:55,028 --> 00:09:56,964
LIL PAPI:
Just look this way.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
175
00:09:56,997 --> 00:09:58,666
Right there, right there.
Give me that smile.
176
00:10:01,534 --> 00:10:03,671
That one's great, actually.
177
00:10:03,704 --> 00:10:05,939
Um... yeah.
178
00:10:05,973 --> 00:10:07,440
* What are you looking at? *
179
00:10:07,474 --> 00:10:08,842
(chuckles)
180
00:10:08,876 --> 00:10:10,577
("Vogue" by Madonna playing)

Oh, shit. (laughs)

Y'all hear that?
188
00:10:37,304 --> 00:10:39,707
(chuckles)
189
00:10:39,740 --> 00:10:41,374
CHANEL:
That's the new Madonna single.
190
00:10:41,408 --> 00:10:43,977
It's been on constant repeat
on Z100.
191
00:10:44,011 --> 00:10:46,613
-(Blanca whoops)
-It's gonna be the song
of the summer.
192
00:10:46,646 --> 00:10:49,983
The most famous woman in
the world signing about us.
193
00:10:50,017 --> 00:10:52,119
-Mm! (chuckles)
-Strike a pose.
194
00:10:52,152 --> 00:10:55,188
The category is...
195
00:10:55,222 --> 00:10:57,290
Runway...
196
00:10:57,324 --> 00:10:58,558
Mo-del...

-Effect.
-(crowd cheering)
198
00:11:00,761 --> 00:11:02,395
BLANCA:
Everything is about to change.
199
00:11:02,429 --> 00:11:04,297
I can see it as clear as day.
200
00:11:04,331 --> 00:11:06,499
Well, your vision must be cloudy
201
00:11:06,533 --> 00:11:09,669
'cause ain't shit about
to change for our black asses.
202
00:11:09,703 --> 00:11:12,539
Madonna is shining a bright
spotlight on us, girl.
203
00:11:12,572 --> 00:11:14,641
-(scoffs)
-We've been underground
for how long?
204
00:11:14,674 --> 00:11:16,977
About 20 years.
Since Crystal LaBeija lost
205
00:11:17,010 --> 00:11:20,347
one too many titles
to white girls.
206
00:11:20,380 --> 00:11:23,416
PRAY TELL:
Ha-ha! Yes, baby!
207
00:11:23,450 --> 00:11:25,152
Let us have it.
208
00:11:25,185 --> 00:11:27,154
These walks
are turning me on, kids.
209
00:11:27,187 --> 00:11:29,356
Who's next?
210
00:11:29,389 --> 00:11:32,059
Oh... sookie, sookie, now.
211
00:11:32,092 --> 00:11:34,061
* Fred Astaire,
Ginger Rogers... *
212

Are you gonna show us
your face, baby?
213
00:11:36,864 --> 00:11:38,899
* Rita Hayworth

* Fellows that were
in the mood... *
218
00:11:47,707 --> 00:11:49,176
BLANCA:
Mark my words.
219
00:11:49,209 --> 00:11:50,610
"Vogue" will make us stars.
220
00:11:50,643 --> 00:11:53,013
Madonna lives on the edge
for what's next.
221
00:11:53,046 --> 00:11:56,950
And what's newer than
an entire world, undiscovered,
222
00:11:56,984 --> 00:11:59,920
brimming to the rim with guts,
223
00:11:59,953 --> 00:12:02,622
gorgeousness...
224
00:12:02,655 --> 00:12:04,157
and raw talent?
225
00:12:05,225 --> 00:12:06,794
I mean, look.
226
00:12:08,796 --> 00:12:11,298
CROWD (chanting):
Angel! Angel! Angel...

PRAY TELL:
Get up, get up.
229
00:12:15,402 --> 00:12:19,206
Oh! Booty! Booty! Booty! Booty!
230
00:12:19,239 --> 00:12:21,074
(crowd cheering, chanting)
231
00:12:21,108 --> 00:12:22,810
PRAY TELL:
Don't, don't, don't hurt us.
232
00:12:22,843 --> 00:12:25,278
Don't hurt us, baby.
233
00:12:25,312 --> 00:12:26,980
Madonna's gonna want
our faces and when she comes
234
00:12:27,014 --> 00:12:30,083
with her spotlight, the
Evangelistas are gonna be ready.
235
00:12:30,117 --> 00:12:31,952
-Girl...
-PRAY TELL: Judges have spoken.
236
00:12:31,985 --> 00:12:34,154
The cards never lie.
237
00:12:34,187 --> 00:12:36,289
The cards never lie,
my darlings.
238
00:12:36,323 --> 00:12:39,092
Grand prize goes to...
239
00:12:39,126 --> 00:12:41,294
the most luminous girl
in the room...
240
00:12:41,328 --> 00:12:44,264
Miss Angel Evangelista.
241
00:12:44,297 --> 00:12:46,333
CROWD (chanting):
Evangelista!
242
00:12:47,801 --> 00:12:50,137
(chanting continues)
243
00:12:50,170 --> 00:12:51,939

* Vogue, Vogue, Vogue, Vogue. *
248
00:13:30,710 --> 00:13:32,712
Hey, baby.
249
00:13:32,745 --> 00:13:34,281
Girl, what are you doing
out here?
250
00:13:34,314 --> 00:13:36,649
We talked about this.
251
00:13:36,683 --> 00:13:39,052
You said you wasn't gonna
walk the piers no more.
252
00:13:39,086 --> 00:13:40,988
-There are more options
out there.
-Like what?
253
00:13:41,021 --> 00:13:43,623
Mopping floors
and waiting tables? No.
254
00:13:43,656 --> 00:13:46,059
No, thanks.
I like being my own boss.
255
00:13:46,093 --> 00:13:48,161
BLANCA:
Well, I got a plan.
256
00:13:48,195 --> 00:13:50,230
Get in.
257
00:13:53,366 --> 00:13:55,869
Just tell me where we're going.
258
00:13:55,903 --> 00:13:58,071
I was at work
and I was flipping through
259
00:13:58,105 --> 00:14:01,909
Elle magazine while I was
on my lunch break and...
260
00:14:01,942 --> 00:14:05,712
I saw this advertisement
for a modeling contest.
261
00:14:05,745 --> 00:14:08,048
(Angel scoffs)
262
00:14:09,749 --> 00:14:12,185
Do you see her?
263
00:14:12,219 --> 00:14:13,586
Yes.
264
00:14:13,620 --> 00:14:15,055
I'm not the face
they're looking for.
265
00:14:15,088 --> 00:14:17,124
-I ain't no model.
-Yes, you are.
266
00:14:20,227 --> 00:14:21,428
Look at these.
267
00:14:21,461 --> 00:14:23,096
That's just me and Lil Papi
playing around.
268
00:14:23,130 --> 00:14:24,497
BLANCA:
Do you see what I see?
269
00:14:24,531 --> 00:14:27,167
These photos prove
you got the look.
270
00:14:27,200 --> 00:14:30,870
You've got a light
that shines so bright
271
00:14:30,904 --> 00:14:32,505
right inside of you,
272
00:14:32,539 --> 00:14:35,542
and I just wish
you could see it. Plus,
273
00:14:35,575 --> 00:14:37,610
we about to go mainstream
with this Madonna song.
274
00:14:37,644 --> 00:14:39,412
Mainstream?
275
00:14:39,446 --> 00:14:42,282
-Yeah, until they find out
who I really am.
-Oh, girl.
276
00:14:42,315 --> 00:14:43,917
All we need to get
is our foot into the door.
277
00:14:43,951 --> 00:14:46,353
This song is our ticket
to acceptance.
278
00:14:46,386 --> 00:14:47,887
Once they see
that you're in the ball,
279
00:14:47,921 --> 00:14:49,756
they won't even turn you away.
280
00:14:52,459 --> 00:14:54,461
(Blanca chuckles)
281
00:15:05,605 --> 00:15:07,607
* My Lord *
282
00:15:07,640 --> 00:15:08,775
(humming)
283
00:15:08,808 --> 00:15:11,044
Sing, sister Lulu.
284
00:15:11,078 --> 00:15:15,782
Girl, who the hell chose
those tacky-ass flowers?
285
00:15:15,815 --> 00:15:17,650
All these candles
and flaming homos,
286
00:15:17,684 --> 00:15:20,053
surprised God don't
burn this bitch to the ground.
287
00:15:20,087 --> 00:15:22,822
(both laugh)
288
00:15:22,855 --> 00:15:25,458
Funerals are bullshit.
289
00:15:25,492 --> 00:15:27,494
(hums):
Mm-hmm.
290
00:15:27,527 --> 00:15:30,563
(laughs)
I want a head count
291
00:15:30,597 --> 00:15:34,167
of exactly how many people
love me before I die.
292
00:15:34,201 --> 00:15:35,602
-Mm.
-And I want a chance
293
00:15:35,635 --> 00:15:37,437
to defend myself,
in case anyone even try
294
00:15:37,470 --> 00:15:39,172
to tarnish my good name.
295
00:15:39,206 --> 00:15:43,243
What's the point of spending
all that money on a corpse?
296
00:15:43,276 --> 00:15:45,745
Give me my damn flowers
when I can smell them.
297
00:15:45,778 --> 00:15:47,814
And give me a chance to read
all these bitches
298
00:15:47,847 --> 00:15:49,349
before I'm put in the
motherfucking ground.
299
00:15:49,382 --> 00:15:50,483
(laughs)
300
00:15:50,517 --> 00:15:52,752
Y'all are some hard-hearted hos.
301
00:15:52,785 --> 00:15:55,222
Show some damn respect.
302
00:15:57,624 --> 00:15:59,626
(organ music playing quietly)
303
00:16:03,563 --> 00:16:06,099
Well, she's on CP time tonight.
304
00:16:06,133 --> 00:16:08,601
He's not going anywhere.
305
00:16:08,635 --> 00:16:10,037
-(scoffs)
-(sighs)
306
00:16:10,070 --> 00:16:14,041
What's your head count?
This is my 452nd memorial.
307
00:16:14,074 --> 00:16:15,375
Two hundred and ten.
308
00:16:15,408 --> 00:16:18,878
First one to get to a thousand
gets a free toaster.
309
00:16:18,911 --> 00:16:20,713
-(chuckles) Uh...
-(giggling nearby)
310
00:16:20,747 --> 00:16:23,516
Look at these unquenchable hos
thirsting for dick.
311
00:16:23,550 --> 00:16:26,486
Since when did funerals become
the new cruising spot?
312
00:16:26,519 --> 00:16:28,721
Oh, she's found morality.
313
00:16:28,755 --> 00:16:30,690
(laughs)
314
00:16:30,723 --> 00:16:32,825
Come on.
315
00:16:32,859 --> 00:16:34,927
Let's pay our respects.
316
00:16:38,031 --> 00:16:40,800
Interesting choice.
317
00:16:40,833 --> 00:16:43,836
Why is he dressed like
a flamenco dancer?
318
00:16:43,870 --> 00:16:46,906
I can get over the outfit,
but that makeup is terrible.
319
00:16:48,208 --> 00:16:51,378
Joe always preferred
a nude matte lip.
320
00:16:51,411 --> 00:16:53,413
Well, red is a tough color.
321
00:16:53,446 --> 00:16:57,150
Only tramps can pull it off.
Shocking you never could.
322
00:16:57,184 --> 00:17:00,953
(chuckles, cries)
323
00:17:04,857 --> 00:17:06,593
(sniffles)
324
00:17:06,626 --> 00:17:08,395
Oh...
325
00:17:09,962 --> 00:17:11,764
He was so young.
326
00:17:12,965 --> 00:17:15,202
Just barely started living.
327
00:17:15,235 --> 00:17:18,571
I don't know how much more
of this I can take.
328
00:17:18,605 --> 00:17:22,242
-790, until you get
your toaster.
-(exhales)
329
00:17:22,275 --> 00:17:26,179
(laughs)
330
00:17:26,213 --> 00:17:30,083
(groans) I need a drink.
You coming with me to the diner?
331
00:17:30,117 --> 00:17:33,420
Not tonight. I've got someplace
to be and you're coming with me.
332
00:17:33,453 --> 00:17:35,955
PRAY TELL:
Where are you taking me?
333
00:17:35,988 --> 00:17:38,291
-I'm hungry.
-(crowd chanting)
334
00:17:38,325 --> 00:17:40,127
Oh, no, no, no, no, no, no.
335
00:17:40,160 --> 00:17:42,529
My black ass does not need
to join your group
336
00:17:42,562 --> 00:17:46,065
of preppy white queens
and ill-fitted Gap chinos
337
00:17:46,099 --> 00:17:48,801
who have never had to fight for
a goddamn thing in their lives.
338
00:17:48,835 --> 00:17:51,471
-CROWD: Act up! Fight back!
-Listen, there are dikes, too,
339
00:17:51,504 --> 00:17:55,242
running these meetings,
of all shades.
340
00:17:55,275 --> 00:17:58,911
Pray, you've got to
put your pain to good use,
341
00:17:58,945 --> 00:18:02,615
or I swear to God,
it will eat you alive.
342
00:18:02,649 --> 00:18:04,917
CROWD (chanting):
Fight back! Fight AIDS!
343
00:18:04,951 --> 00:18:08,588
Act up! Fight back!
Fight AIDS!
344
00:18:08,621 --> 00:18:11,791
Act up!
Fight back! Fight AIDS!
345
00:18:11,824 --> 00:18:14,894
Act up! Fight back!
Fight AIDS!
346
00:18:14,927 --> 00:18:17,664
Act up!
Fight back! Fight AIDS!
347
00:18:17,697 --> 00:18:20,600
Welcome to your first
Act Up meeting.
348
00:18:20,633 --> 00:18:22,602
CROWD (chanting):
Fight AIDS! Act up!
349
00:18:22,635 --> 00:18:27,740
Ah, well, I was beginning to
think Miss Wanda didn't exist.
350
00:18:27,774 --> 00:18:29,342
I'm not the going out type.
351
00:18:29,376 --> 00:18:31,911
I've got other things
on my mind.
352
00:18:31,944 --> 00:18:35,615
-I told you she was hot.
-(chuckles)
353
00:18:35,648 --> 00:18:38,185
-Act up! Fight back! Fight AIDS!
-SYD: All right.
354
00:18:38,218 --> 00:18:40,320
-All right.
-(applause, cheering)
355
00:18:40,353 --> 00:18:42,455
Listen up, folks.
356
00:18:42,489 --> 00:18:44,857
Last week's fund-raiser
brought in
357
00:18:44,891 --> 00:18:48,261
$650,000.
358
00:18:48,295 --> 00:18:50,863
(cheering)
359
00:18:50,897 --> 00:18:55,101
And... and now that
we finally have the cash
360
00:18:55,134 --> 00:18:57,637
to meet our momentum,
this Sunday's protest
361
00:18:57,670 --> 00:18:59,272
up at St. Patrick's Cathedral
362
00:18:59,306 --> 00:19:01,608
is an even more crucial step
363
00:19:01,641 --> 00:19:04,277
in starting a global
conversation around HIV
364
00:19:04,311 --> 00:19:05,478
and AIDS.
365
00:19:05,512 --> 00:19:08,215
(cheering)
366
00:19:08,248 --> 00:19:11,384
The Catholic Church has spent
367
00:19:11,418 --> 00:19:14,721
millions of dollars putting
the false message into the world
368
00:19:14,754 --> 00:19:18,558
that condoms don't work and that
abstinence is the only way
369
00:19:18,591 --> 00:19:20,993
-to fight HIV. That is a lie.
-(booing)
370
00:19:21,027 --> 00:19:24,331
And that is morally wrong.
371
00:19:24,364 --> 00:19:26,666
So, we're staging a die-in
372
00:19:26,699 --> 00:19:28,835
in the middle
of that congregation
373
00:19:28,868 --> 00:19:31,904
as a peaceful protest
against the annihilation
374
00:19:31,938 --> 00:19:35,074
-of our community!
-Yes!
375
00:19:35,107 --> 00:19:37,510
(cheering)
376
00:19:40,580 --> 00:19:41,981
Cardinal John O'Connor has said,
377
00:19:42,014 --> 00:19:44,484
"Good morality
is good medicine."
378
00:19:44,517 --> 00:19:46,353
He might as well say,
"Let them get AIDS."
379
00:19:46,386 --> 00:19:48,321
And it's not just
the board of education
380
00:19:48,355 --> 00:19:50,056
or the city council
381
00:19:50,089 --> 00:19:52,259
that Cardinal O'Connor
is influencing, no.
382
00:19:52,292 --> 00:19:57,096
He has a direct line
to the Pope himself.
383
00:19:57,129 --> 00:20:00,032
We will not allow his racist,
384
00:20:00,066 --> 00:20:04,537
sexist, homophobic ideologies
to affect the health
385
00:20:04,571 --> 00:20:07,840
of every single person
on this planet!
386
00:20:07,874 --> 00:20:09,242
(cheering)
387
00:20:11,711 --> 00:20:13,780
Act up! Fight back!
388
00:20:13,813 --> 00:20:15,348
ALL:
Fight AIDS!
389
00:20:15,382 --> 00:20:19,352
Act up! Fight back!
Fight AIDS!
390
00:20:19,386 --> 00:20:21,721
Act up!
Fight back! Fight AIDS!
391
00:20:21,754 --> 00:20:26,092
-Yes. Yes. Yes.
-Act up! Fight back! Fight AIDS!
392
00:20:26,125 --> 00:20:29,195
Act up! Fight back!
Fight AIDS!
393
00:20:29,228 --> 00:20:32,565
Act up!
Fight back! Fight AIDS!
394
00:20:32,599 --> 00:20:35,268
Act up! Fight back!
Fight AIDS!
395
00:20:37,437 --> 00:20:39,238
(laughing)
396
00:20:39,272 --> 00:20:41,708
Damn, all these girls
look the same.
397
00:20:41,741 --> 00:20:43,810
-Nothing at all like me.
-Girl, stop comparing yourself.
398
00:20:43,843 --> 00:20:45,978
You are an original,
a star of ballroom.
399
00:20:47,280 --> 00:20:49,316
I got to ask you
something serious.
400
00:20:51,318 --> 00:20:53,453
You think I pass?
401
00:20:53,486 --> 00:20:55,455
Hmm. With the best of them.
402
00:20:55,488 --> 00:20:57,990
None of these girls can
hold a candle to you.
403
00:20:58,024 --> 00:20:59,959
Angel, you're the prettiest
thing I've ever seen.
404
00:20:59,992 --> 00:21:03,596
You Dominicans
got a slick tongue.
405
00:21:03,630 --> 00:21:04,997
-Come on.
-(laughs)
406
00:21:05,031 --> 00:21:07,600
We need to sign you in.
407
00:21:09,369 --> 00:21:11,438
(chuckles)
This your first time?
408
00:21:11,471 --> 00:21:14,841
-Don't be nervous.
-I'm not.
409
00:21:14,874 --> 00:21:16,509
Well, I was in your same spot
three years ago,
410
00:21:16,543 --> 00:21:18,077
and I was scared as hell.
411
00:21:18,110 --> 00:21:19,446
I thought my skin
and frizzy hair
412
00:21:19,479 --> 00:21:21,314
wouldn't get me
past the open call,
413
00:21:21,348 --> 00:21:23,783
but those things actually
made me stand out.
414
00:21:23,816 --> 00:21:27,286
You're gonna be the face
of 1990, girl. Watch.
415
00:21:27,320 --> 00:21:28,988
Okay, now hurry up
and fill this out.
416
00:21:29,021 --> 00:21:30,757
And don't forget to mention
that you can Vogue
417
00:21:30,790 --> 00:21:32,091
-in the special skills section.
-Oh, that's right.
418
00:21:32,124 --> 00:21:33,726
Duh.
419
00:21:45,137 --> 00:21:47,707
(quietly):
Come on, let's go.
420
00:21:47,740 --> 00:21:50,109
Blanca, you can't
leave me here like this.
421
00:21:50,142 --> 00:21:52,845
Girl, if I walk into that room,
you know the jig is up.
422
00:21:54,647 --> 00:21:57,650
-You must do this
on your own, Angel.
-(moans)
423
00:21:57,684 --> 00:21:59,519
You got this, you can do this.
424
00:21:59,552 --> 00:22:01,253
Just be yourself.
425
00:22:03,055 --> 00:22:05,057
Just be yourself.
426
00:22:13,566 --> 00:22:15,535
*
427
00:22:42,228 --> 00:22:44,230
(indistinct chatter)
428
00:22:46,232 --> 00:22:47,700
(shutter clicks)
429
00:22:56,709 --> 00:22:59,245
So, what have we here?
430
00:23:01,147 --> 00:23:04,216
Angel. 22.
431
00:23:04,250 --> 00:23:06,786
-Mm-hmm.
-The Bronx.
432
00:23:08,955 --> 00:23:11,558
You used an instant camera.
433
00:23:11,591 --> 00:23:13,460
Yes. I did.
434
00:23:14,494 --> 00:23:17,029
Hmm.
435
00:23:17,063 --> 00:23:19,065
Impressive.
436
00:23:20,299 --> 00:23:23,135
But if you want to be
a professional,
437
00:23:23,169 --> 00:23:26,573
you need a professional
to capture you.
438
00:23:26,606 --> 00:23:28,541
That sounds like
that costs money.
439
00:23:28,575 --> 00:23:30,209
I don't have a job right now,
that's why I'm here
440
00:23:30,242 --> 00:23:31,243
talking to you.
441
00:23:31,277 --> 00:23:33,245
Every model must pay her dues
442
00:23:33,279 --> 00:23:35,414
before she gets paid herself.
443
00:23:35,448 --> 00:23:38,585
It's an investment
in your future.
444
00:23:39,986 --> 00:23:42,889
-So, you can Vogue.
-Mm-hmm.
445
00:23:42,922 --> 00:23:44,857
-Like the new song?
-Mm-hmm.
446
00:23:47,426 --> 00:23:48,861
I like that.
447
00:23:51,263 --> 00:23:52,198
(chuckles)
448
00:23:59,872 --> 00:24:02,475
Here's a photographer I know.
449
00:24:02,509 --> 00:24:05,411
Tell him I sent you.
450
00:24:05,444 --> 00:24:06,779
He'll give you my discount.
451
00:24:09,982 --> 00:24:13,820
Bring the new photographs
to me...
452
00:24:13,853 --> 00:24:16,355
for the semi-finals.
453
00:24:33,673 --> 00:24:36,208
I did it.
I made it to the next round.
454
00:24:36,242 --> 00:24:37,877
-Ah!
-I knew it. I knew it!
455
00:24:37,910 --> 00:24:40,212
(all laughing)
456
00:24:50,590 --> 00:24:53,459
*
457
00:24:53,492 --> 00:24:55,562
Did you put oregano in my sauce?
458
00:24:55,595 --> 00:24:57,830
Your sauce? It's RagĂș.
459
00:24:57,864 --> 00:25:00,066
This shit came out of a jar,
bitch. Relax.
460
00:25:00,099 --> 00:25:01,300
-(laughing)
-What's so funny, Cubby?
461
00:25:01,333 --> 00:25:03,402
What's wrong with oregano?
I thought it was healthy
462
00:25:03,435 --> 00:25:05,538
to eat more green vegetables.
463
00:25:05,572 --> 00:25:08,741
Oregano is a herb,
not a vegetable, darling boy.
464
00:25:08,775 --> 00:25:12,011
Who is educating these children
on their nutrition?
465
00:25:12,044 --> 00:25:13,345
And when is your man
coming home?
466
00:25:13,379 --> 00:25:16,583
Well, darling sir, the
Al B. Sure tour is almost over.
467
00:25:16,616 --> 00:25:18,718
He told me he would be home
next week.
468
00:25:18,751 --> 00:25:21,353
I'm so excited,
I can't even sleep. (chuckles)
469
00:25:21,387 --> 00:25:24,256
Oh, no. Please don't go planning
no romantic reunion dinner
470
00:25:24,290 --> 00:25:25,758
at Roy Rogers or nothing.
If he's back in town,
471
00:25:25,792 --> 00:25:27,560
then he's back under my roof,
472
00:25:27,594 --> 00:25:29,596
and Friday family dinner
is mandatory.
473
00:25:29,629 --> 00:25:31,063
Yeah, unless you're glued
to the MTV
474
00:25:31,097 --> 00:25:32,498
waiting for your favorite song
to come on.
475
00:25:32,531 --> 00:25:33,766
Uh-uh. That ain't
recreation, girl.
476
00:25:33,800 --> 00:25:37,003
They play that Madonna
"Vogue" video once an hour.
477
00:25:37,036 --> 00:25:40,339
I need to study it
and I ain't got no VCR.
478
00:25:40,372 --> 00:25:41,608
Listen, y'all are just
not getting it.
479
00:25:41,641 --> 00:25:45,011
We are on the cusp
of a revolution.
480
00:25:45,044 --> 00:25:48,047
We've been doing those dance
moves in that video for years.
481
00:25:48,080 --> 00:25:50,850
That's our culture on MTV.
We about to go mainstream.
482
00:25:50,883 --> 00:25:54,754
Yes. Just like when
all those suburban kids
483
00:25:54,787 --> 00:25:57,624
started singing "Y.M.C.A."
and the leather bars
484
00:25:57,657 --> 00:25:59,626
in The Castro went mainstream.
485
00:25:59,659 --> 00:26:00,860
-(all chuckling)
-This is different.
486
00:26:00,893 --> 00:26:02,695
We're talking about Madonna.
487
00:26:02,729 --> 00:26:04,463
Something is happening,
I can feel it.
488
00:26:04,496 --> 00:26:06,098
PRAY TELL:
Yeah. That's the same shit
they said
489
00:26:06,132 --> 00:26:07,734
about disco.
490
00:26:07,767 --> 00:26:09,969
Studio 54 stayed open
for three years,
491
00:26:10,002 --> 00:26:11,638
and when the Man shut it down,
492
00:26:11,671 --> 00:26:14,707
all those angry black
and homo-hating white boys--
493
00:26:14,741 --> 00:26:18,645
they took their disco records
to the baseball stadium
494
00:26:18,678 --> 00:26:20,546
and blew 'em up.
495
00:26:20,579 --> 00:26:22,448
Every generation
496
00:26:22,481 --> 00:26:24,283
thinks that
they're gonna be the ones
497
00:26:24,316 --> 00:26:26,452
that are finally
invited to the party.
498
00:26:26,485 --> 00:26:28,955
-(both chuckle)
-Put your glass slippers away,
499
00:26:28,988 --> 00:26:31,658
Trans-erella. It ain't never
gonna happen. (laughs)
500
00:26:31,691 --> 00:26:34,426
Really?
Angel, will you
501
00:26:34,460 --> 00:26:37,129
-tell them your news?
-ANGEL: Mm-hmm. Blanca made me
502
00:26:37,163 --> 00:26:39,431
audition for the Fresh Faces
modeling competition.
503
00:26:39,465 --> 00:26:41,600
And she made the semi-finals,
too. What's good?
504
00:26:41,634 --> 00:26:42,802
-(cheering)
-Why you got to
steal my thunder?
505
00:26:42,835 --> 00:26:45,237
DAMON:
Our girl's a star.
506
00:26:45,271 --> 00:26:46,939
Don't get all crazy yet.
507
00:26:46,973 --> 00:26:49,508
The modeling woman said
I need professional headshots,
508
00:26:49,541 --> 00:26:51,844
-and those "costeses" money.
-Mm-hmm.
509
00:26:51,878 --> 00:26:53,746
And you next, Damon.
510
00:26:53,780 --> 00:26:55,648
No more Saturdays sitting
around the house,
511
00:26:55,682 --> 00:26:56,949
reading dirty magazines.
512
00:26:56,983 --> 00:26:58,785
From 3:00 until 5:00,
you're gonna be teaching
513
00:26:58,818 --> 00:27:00,519
a Voguing class
down at the YMCA.
514
00:27:00,552 --> 00:27:02,588
-They don't have
a Voguing class.
-Well, they do now.
515
00:27:02,621 --> 00:27:04,623
I told them if they
put up a sign-up sheet,
516
00:27:04,657 --> 00:27:06,092
more people would come.
517
00:27:06,125 --> 00:27:09,128
They got six people already and
the numbers are going to grow.
518
00:27:09,161 --> 00:27:11,463
Y'all need to trust
this mother's intuition.
519
00:27:11,497 --> 00:27:13,099
Y'all are whistling
past the graveyard.
520
00:27:13,132 --> 00:27:14,100
BLANCA:
Really?
521
00:27:14,133 --> 00:27:15,367
'Cause I heard the other emcees
522
00:27:15,401 --> 00:27:17,770
talking about how Sue Simmons
from Live at Five
523
00:27:17,804 --> 00:27:19,205
wants to interview you
about the scene.
524
00:27:19,238 --> 00:27:22,441
It's not a scene.
It's our lives.
525
00:27:22,474 --> 00:27:26,012
Why do you have to be
such a downer?
526
00:27:26,045 --> 00:27:27,379
PRAY TELL:
We should all be going
527
00:27:27,413 --> 00:27:29,381
to that church
for the protest on Sunday.
528
00:27:29,415 --> 00:27:32,051
Together.
As a house.
529
00:27:32,084 --> 00:27:34,220
I can't make it on Sunday.
I have to meet the photographer.
530
00:27:34,253 --> 00:27:35,321
Reschedule.
531
00:27:35,354 --> 00:27:38,324
We're all being chased
by the same monster.
532
00:27:38,357 --> 00:27:41,027
You saying it's wrong for me
to get a little something
533
00:27:41,060 --> 00:27:42,661
for myself
while I'm running away?
534
00:27:42,695 --> 00:27:45,865
I could die,
so I should stop living?
535
00:27:45,898 --> 00:27:47,299
Come on.
536
00:27:47,333 --> 00:27:48,801
BLANCA:
But we need to let them know
537
00:27:48,835 --> 00:27:50,803
-that we care about us.
-(door opens)
538
00:27:50,837 --> 00:27:53,472
Y'all are going. What's the
point of raising the profile
539
00:27:53,505 --> 00:27:55,207
of our community
if there's no community left
540
00:27:55,241 --> 00:27:57,009
within a couple of years?
541
00:27:58,677 --> 00:28:00,512
You're late, Elektra.
542
00:28:00,546 --> 00:28:03,049
From the looks of things,
not late enough.
543
00:28:03,082 --> 00:28:04,683
Mother Blanca,
this house is suffering
544
00:28:04,717 --> 00:28:07,386
from a major deficiency
in terms of closet space.
545
00:28:07,419 --> 00:28:11,090
I do not understand how you
expect me to just toss my finery
546
00:28:11,123 --> 00:28:13,159
on one of these flea-filled
reclamation projects
547
00:28:13,192 --> 00:28:14,994
like a savage.
548
00:28:15,027 --> 00:28:18,164
What kind of tips
is you making at, um,
549
00:28:18,197 --> 00:28:20,767
-Indochine to buy this mink?
-(Lil Papi chuckles)
550
00:28:20,800 --> 00:28:23,035
She mopped this shit
from the coat room.
551
00:28:23,069 --> 00:28:24,937
Miss Elektra does not mop.
552
00:28:24,971 --> 00:28:26,238
LEMAR:
Or dust
553
00:28:26,272 --> 00:28:28,040
-or cook.
-CUBBY: Mm-hmm.
554
00:28:28,074 --> 00:28:30,676
LEMAR:
Or wash a dish.
555
00:28:30,709 --> 00:28:32,912
But she has been helping
with the rent and expenses
556
00:28:32,945 --> 00:28:34,747
for the past two months,
which I can say
557
00:28:34,781 --> 00:28:36,548
more than any of you freeloaders
have done.
558
00:28:36,582 --> 00:28:38,217
Thank you, Mother Blanca.
559
00:28:38,250 --> 00:28:41,453
And I do apologize
for missing last week's supper.
560
00:28:41,487 --> 00:28:43,355
While I don't always
enjoy the company
561
00:28:43,389 --> 00:28:45,057
and the sauce could use
some seasoning,
562
00:28:45,091 --> 00:28:47,626
I do think it's good for morale
to do things as a family.
563
00:28:47,659 --> 00:28:49,028
BLANCA:
Well, good, because
564
00:28:49,061 --> 00:28:50,863
we're all going with Pray
565
00:28:50,897 --> 00:28:53,900
to that big Act Up protest
at the church on Sunday.
566
00:28:55,467 --> 00:28:56,468
Count me out.
567
00:28:56,502 --> 00:28:58,771
I'm not posing for a mug shot.
568
00:28:58,805 --> 00:29:00,973
Oh, no, uh-uh. Ain't none
of y'all ever given me lip
569
00:29:01,007 --> 00:29:03,609
when I say we're walking a
category together at the ball.
570
00:29:03,642 --> 00:29:06,578
Well, this Sunday,
the ball is at the church,
571
00:29:06,612 --> 00:29:10,582
and the categories are family
and standing up for ourselves
572
00:29:10,616 --> 00:29:14,253
and our community,
and all of y'all are going.
573
00:29:14,286 --> 00:29:16,088
-All right.
-Okay.
574
00:29:21,961 --> 00:29:24,997
I just booked you
an 11:10 and a 12:15.
575
00:29:25,031 --> 00:29:26,265
I'm sorry, Ms. Rose.
576
00:29:26,298 --> 00:29:28,000
You gonna have to give this
to someone else.
577
00:29:28,034 --> 00:29:29,435
I'm the owner,
I need you to work.
578
00:29:29,468 --> 00:29:31,470
You know I never turn down work,
579
00:29:31,503 --> 00:29:33,105
but my friends
are counting on me.
580
00:29:33,139 --> 00:29:35,307
You're ungrateful.
I let you work here
581
00:29:35,341 --> 00:29:37,176
because I am
a good Christian and...
582
00:29:37,209 --> 00:29:39,778
Please. I have to leave.
583
00:29:39,812 --> 00:29:40,813
So quit.
584
00:29:42,614 --> 00:29:44,616
You know what?
585
00:29:48,387 --> 00:29:51,190
You're right. I quit.
586
00:29:51,223 --> 00:29:53,926
I'm not wasting whatever time
I have left on this Earth
587
00:29:53,960 --> 00:29:56,628
to give any part of me to you.
588
00:29:56,662 --> 00:29:58,497
You should kiss my feet
for hiring you.
589
00:29:58,530 --> 00:30:01,200
No one else will.
You will see.
590
00:30:01,233 --> 00:30:04,236
Ladies like getting
their nails done by ladies.
591
00:30:10,709 --> 00:30:13,512
So... then I'll get
my own salon,
592
00:30:13,545 --> 00:30:17,049
and make twice the business
you make in here.
593
00:30:17,083 --> 00:30:21,453
Oh, and I'll call it Vogue Nails
after the Madonna song.
594
00:30:21,487 --> 00:30:25,791
Then when I get back, I'll come
buy this dump from you.
595
00:30:25,824 --> 00:30:27,826
(organ playing, choir singing)
596
00:30:36,502 --> 00:30:39,705
Mm... This look
like a lot of money.
597
00:30:39,738 --> 00:30:42,008
Mm-hmm. And you know
they ain't paying taxes
598
00:30:42,041 --> 00:30:44,010
on any of this shit.
599
00:30:44,043 --> 00:30:46,178
I bet you those vestments cost
more than Chanel's
600
00:30:46,212 --> 00:30:49,248
-entire spring 1990 collection.
-Hmm.
601
00:30:49,281 --> 00:30:51,250
O'CONNOR:
...and all the others,
602
00:30:51,283 --> 00:30:52,318
and I warn them now
while absent,
603
00:30:52,351 --> 00:30:54,086
as I did when present
604
00:30:54,120 --> 00:30:56,022
on my second visit,
605
00:30:56,055 --> 00:30:59,325
that if I come again,
I will not be lenient,
606
00:30:59,358 --> 00:31:02,328
since you are looking
for proof of Christ
607
00:31:02,361 --> 00:31:04,530
speaking in me.
608
00:31:04,563 --> 00:31:07,333
Finally, brothers, rejoice.
609
00:31:07,366 --> 00:31:10,336
Mend your ways,
encourage one another.
610
00:31:10,369 --> 00:31:12,071
Agree with one another.
611
00:31:12,104 --> 00:31:15,274
Live in peace,
and the God of love
612
00:31:15,307 --> 00:31:17,276
and peace will be with you.
613
00:31:17,309 --> 00:31:20,079
Greet one another
with a holy kiss...
614
00:31:20,112 --> 00:31:22,915
-All the holy ones greet you.
-(whispers): Pass it down.
615
00:31:22,949 --> 00:31:26,919
May the grace of the Lord
Jesus Christ, the love of God
616
00:31:26,953 --> 00:31:31,123
and the fellowship of
the Holy Spirit be with you all.
617
00:31:31,157 --> 00:31:33,926
CONGREGATION:
And also with you.
618
00:31:33,960 --> 00:31:36,862
O'CONNOR:
The gospel of the Lord.
619
00:31:36,895 --> 00:31:39,298
CONGREGATION:
Praise be to Jesus Christ.
620
00:31:39,331 --> 00:31:42,734
O'CONNOR:
Today's reading really
reminded me of my father.
621
00:31:42,768 --> 00:31:45,071
Paul's letter
to the Corinthians.
622
00:31:45,104 --> 00:31:48,907
It's written with love.
But it's... (coughs)
623
00:31:48,941 --> 00:31:50,409
(congregation muttering)
624
00:32:09,295 --> 00:32:13,499
Could everyone here
please stand and pray?
625
00:32:14,933 --> 00:32:17,436
Prayer won't cure AIDS.
626
00:32:17,469 --> 00:32:19,938
Prayer won't stop
the spread of HIV.
627
00:32:19,972 --> 00:32:21,473
Only condoms will.
628
00:32:21,507 --> 00:32:23,475
Abstinence is not
a human solution,
629
00:32:23,509 --> 00:32:26,112
abstinence is the erasure
of our sexuality.
630
00:32:26,145 --> 00:32:30,682
Our Father who art in heaven,
hallowed be thy name...
631
00:32:30,716 --> 00:32:33,085
Stop killing us!
Stop killing us!
632
00:32:33,119 --> 00:32:34,453
Stop killing us!
633
00:32:34,486 --> 00:32:35,654
(chanting):
Stop killing us!
634
00:32:35,687 --> 00:32:37,356
Stop killing us!
635
00:32:37,389 --> 00:32:40,692
Stop killing us!
Stop killing us!
636
00:32:40,726 --> 00:32:43,962
Stop killing us! Stop
killing us!
637
00:32:43,996 --> 00:32:47,133
Stop killing us!
Stop killing us!
638
00:32:47,166 --> 00:32:48,500
Stop killing us!
639
00:32:48,534 --> 00:32:49,668
-(chanting continues)
-(door opens)
640
00:32:49,701 --> 00:32:51,770
(whistle blowing)
641
00:32:51,803 --> 00:32:55,441
(indistinct shouting)
642
00:32:55,474 --> 00:32:57,476
-(applause)
-(cheering)
643
00:32:59,411 --> 00:33:01,347
-Get 'em out of here!
-Get out of here!
644
00:33:01,380 --> 00:33:03,015
Stop killing us!
Stop killing us!
645
00:33:03,049 --> 00:33:05,884
Arrest the cardinal!
He's the criminal!
646
00:33:05,917 --> 00:33:08,687
Stop killing us!
Stop killing us!
647
00:33:08,720 --> 00:33:13,992
Stop killing us! Stop killing
us! Stop killing us!
648
00:33:14,026 --> 00:33:15,761
Shame on you.
649
00:33:17,429 --> 00:33:20,399
Stop killing us!
Stop killing us!
650
00:33:20,432 --> 00:33:22,301
(shouting)
651
00:33:22,334 --> 00:33:24,636
Stop killing us!
652
00:33:24,670 --> 00:33:27,339
(cheering, applause)
653
00:33:27,373 --> 00:33:29,741
(chanting continues)
654
00:33:31,910 --> 00:33:34,380
Stop killing us!
655
00:33:36,248 --> 00:33:39,485
-I love this hairstyle so much.
-ANDRE: Give me the room.
656
00:33:39,518 --> 00:33:44,256
How many looks are we shooting?
657
00:33:44,290 --> 00:33:47,093
I was thinking just one.
658
00:33:47,126 --> 00:33:49,995
-I can't afford a full-on shoot.
-That's not how it works.
659
00:33:50,028 --> 00:33:51,997
We have a whole team
booked for today.
660
00:33:52,030 --> 00:33:54,833
Well, maybe we could work
something out.
661
00:33:54,866 --> 00:33:57,836
Like, layaway?
662
00:33:57,869 --> 00:34:01,006
-Don't you have a job?
-Not at this moment.
663
00:34:01,039 --> 00:34:04,076
You know, I've seen you
at the piers.
664
00:34:06,745 --> 00:34:09,881
You must have mistaken me
for someone else.
665
00:34:09,915 --> 00:34:14,253
-I have one of those faces.
-No, you don't.
666
00:34:14,286 --> 00:34:16,488
A face like yours
I'd never forget.
667
00:34:19,491 --> 00:34:21,460
Well, I don't do that anymore.
668
00:34:21,493 --> 00:34:25,197
-You still gonna shoot me?
-I'm the only person who can.
669
00:34:25,231 --> 00:34:27,766
You're a very special beauty.
670
00:34:27,799 --> 00:34:29,801
Very specific.
671
00:34:35,407 --> 00:34:39,010
Mm. Ain't nothing free.
672
00:34:41,847 --> 00:34:43,815
What you want me
to do in return?
673
00:34:43,849 --> 00:34:45,651
A private sitting.
674
00:34:45,684 --> 00:34:48,254
Some shots
for my personal collection.
675
00:34:48,287 --> 00:34:50,256
I'll do it as a trade.
676
00:34:50,289 --> 00:34:52,291
Won't cost you a dime.
677
00:34:54,526 --> 00:34:56,795
Three, two, one.
678
00:34:56,828 --> 00:34:58,730
Beautiful.
679
00:34:58,764 --> 00:35:00,499
*
680
00:35:04,503 --> 00:35:06,138
Good, good, good, good.
681
00:35:06,172 --> 00:35:08,807
Keep going. Hands up, hands up.
682
00:35:11,677 --> 00:35:12,978
You are beautiful.
683
00:35:13,011 --> 00:35:15,347
* Walking like a man,
hitting like a hammer *
684
00:35:15,381 --> 00:35:18,250
* She's a juvenile scam,
never was a quitter *
685
00:35:18,284 --> 00:35:21,787
* Tasty like a raindrop,
she's got the look *
686
00:35:23,855 --> 00:35:26,258
-* Heavenly bound,
'cause heaven's got a number *
-Chin down.
687
00:35:26,292 --> 00:35:28,527
* When she's spinning me around,
kissing is a color *
688
00:35:28,560 --> 00:35:32,598
* Her loving is a wild dog,
she's got the look *
689
00:35:32,631 --> 00:35:34,666
* She's got the look,
she's got the look *
690
00:35:34,700 --> 00:35:37,869
* She's got the look, she's got
the look *
691
00:35:37,903 --> 00:35:40,506
* What in the world can make
a brown-eyed girl turn blue? *
692
00:35:40,539 --> 00:35:42,541
Yes.
693
00:35:42,574 --> 00:35:44,876
* When everything I'll ever do *
694
00:35:44,910 --> 00:35:47,613
-* I'll do for you *
-Beautiful.
695
00:35:47,646 --> 00:35:50,616
* And I go la, la, la, la, la *
696
00:35:50,649 --> 00:35:52,884
* She's got the look... *
697
00:35:52,918 --> 00:35:54,019
Yes, towards me.
698
00:35:54,052 --> 00:35:56,121
Towards me, move them.
Yes. Three, two, one.
699
00:35:56,154 --> 00:35:57,656
Yes, beautiful, beautiful.
700
00:35:57,689 --> 00:35:59,658
One more, just like that.
Just like that.
701
00:35:59,691 --> 00:36:01,660
Three, two, one.
Yes, yes.
702
00:36:01,693 --> 00:36:04,095
Perfect, perfect...
703
00:36:05,163 --> 00:36:07,299
What do you want?
704
00:36:07,333 --> 00:36:09,535
Take that off.
705
00:36:18,744 --> 00:36:20,746
(exhales)
706
00:36:40,566 --> 00:36:42,568
(camera shutter clicks)
707
00:36:44,636 --> 00:36:47,473
And that.
708
00:36:50,041 --> 00:36:51,610
N-No.
709
00:36:51,643 --> 00:36:53,645
Yeah.
710
00:37:07,459 --> 00:37:09,461
Touch it.
711
00:37:14,433 --> 00:37:17,403
(cheering, applause)
712
00:37:17,436 --> 00:37:21,106
The category is Runway.
713
00:37:21,139 --> 00:37:25,311
Bring it
like a French Revolution.
714
00:37:25,344 --> 00:37:29,481
Poverty and abundance
personified,
715
00:37:29,515 --> 00:37:31,817
and a goddamn category I like.
716
00:37:31,850 --> 00:37:35,120
We have much to fight back
against, children.
717
00:37:37,656 --> 00:37:40,459
And what have we here?
718
00:37:40,492 --> 00:37:43,462
Miss Candy and Miss Lulu
719
00:37:43,495 --> 00:37:45,397
serving up Les Misérables
720
00:37:45,431 --> 00:37:49,401
peasant slut realness.
721
00:37:49,435 --> 00:37:51,803
You got some ghetto proppage.
722
00:37:51,837 --> 00:37:55,674
Piece of French baguette
and a pitchfork?
723
00:37:55,707 --> 00:37:57,643
What is this, Hee Haw?
724
00:37:57,676 --> 00:38:01,347
You got enough to feed
the multitudes, baby,
725
00:38:01,380 --> 00:38:04,916
with your five fish and three
loaves of bread. (laughs)
726
00:38:04,950 --> 00:38:07,519
We got a horse mouth
up there, though. Here.
727
00:38:07,553 --> 00:38:09,287
(laughter, booing)
728
00:38:10,689 --> 00:38:12,491
Judges, your scores.
729
00:38:12,524 --> 00:38:14,326
Seven, seven,
730
00:38:14,360 --> 00:38:16,695
-six, eight, seven.
-(gasps, laughs)
731
00:38:16,728 --> 00:38:17,996
House of Ferocity...
732
00:38:18,029 --> 00:38:19,998
* Ain't so ferocious *
733
00:38:20,031 --> 00:38:22,300
* Ain't so ferocious. *
734
00:38:22,334 --> 00:38:24,536
See you later, my darlings.
735
00:38:24,570 --> 00:38:26,438
Always.
736
00:38:26,472 --> 00:38:28,474
I mean, you think she would
learn by now, right?
737
00:38:28,507 --> 00:38:30,509
Who's next?
738
00:38:30,542 --> 00:38:32,310
Who's gonna be next up in here?
739
00:38:32,344 --> 00:38:35,280
(cheering, screaming)
740
00:38:35,313 --> 00:38:37,315
(fanfare playing)
741
00:38:39,150 --> 00:38:41,620
Yes, okay. Uh-huh.
742
00:38:41,653 --> 00:38:43,722
Here comes Miss Elektra...
743
00:38:45,857 --> 00:38:47,859
...serving us Marie Antoinette.
744
00:38:47,893 --> 00:38:50,028
How apropos,
745
00:38:50,061 --> 00:38:52,498
a queen who cares nothing
for her kingdom.
746
00:38:52,531 --> 00:38:55,133
Oh...
747
00:38:55,166 --> 00:38:58,637
Yes, and the children
are serving us narrative.
748
00:38:58,670 --> 00:39:01,573
It's early morning
in Versailles,
749
00:39:01,607 --> 00:39:04,510
and Queen Marie
is being serviced
750
00:39:04,543 --> 00:39:07,245
by her dutiful young men.
751
00:39:07,278 --> 00:39:10,315
Let them eat cake.
752
00:39:10,348 --> 00:39:12,851
Ah, the carousel twirls,
753
00:39:12,884 --> 00:39:15,387
the carousel twirls.
754
00:39:15,421 --> 00:39:18,890
Remember when things
were simpler, Elektra?
755
00:39:18,924 --> 00:39:21,326
Before our young men
were dropping dead
756
00:39:21,359 --> 00:39:24,630
before our very eyes.
757
00:39:26,565 --> 00:39:30,101
And they're still going.
There's even more story.
758
00:39:31,937 --> 00:39:35,874
Y'all created a guillotine
for this mess?
759
00:39:35,907 --> 00:39:37,242
(crowd screaming)
760
00:39:37,275 --> 00:39:38,744
For real?
761
00:39:47,385 --> 00:39:50,055
Mm.
762
00:39:50,088 --> 00:39:52,090
(cheering, applause)
763
00:39:54,426 --> 00:39:56,662
Bravo, bravo.
764
00:39:59,498 --> 00:40:03,034
I must admit,
that was very well done.
765
00:40:03,068 --> 00:40:05,804
So tell me something.
766
00:40:05,837 --> 00:40:07,439
How long did you rehearse that?
767
00:40:07,473 --> 00:40:09,475
Is that where you were
768
00:40:09,508 --> 00:40:12,143
instead of showing up
for your dying community?
769
00:40:12,177 --> 00:40:13,445
(gasping, shouting)
770
00:40:13,479 --> 00:40:16,715
Way to set an example
for the kids, Elektra.
771
00:40:16,748 --> 00:40:19,317
What's your problem, Pray Tell?
772
00:40:19,350 --> 00:40:22,287
Get off your soapbox and ask
the judges for their scores.
773
00:40:22,320 --> 00:40:25,123
Oh, I don't need to ask
the judges for scores.
774
00:40:25,156 --> 00:40:26,792
I know what they are,
and everybody in this room
775
00:40:26,825 --> 00:40:28,827
knows what they are.
776
00:40:28,860 --> 00:40:32,564
Miss Elektra Abundance
Evangelista,
777
00:40:32,598 --> 00:40:34,165
grand prize,
778
00:40:34,199 --> 00:40:37,469
this week and last week
779
00:40:37,503 --> 00:40:38,904
and the week before that
780
00:40:38,937 --> 00:40:41,239
and the week before that
and the week
781
00:40:41,272 --> 00:40:43,274
before that, granny!
782
00:40:44,710 --> 00:40:46,344
Here, here.
783
00:40:50,816 --> 00:40:54,252
-Take your trophy.
-(gasping)
784
00:40:54,285 --> 00:40:56,655
Bitch, you better get me
a new trophy
785
00:40:56,688 --> 00:41:00,025
and then come down here
so I can shove it up your ass.
786
00:41:00,058 --> 00:41:03,495
(oohing)
787
00:41:05,463 --> 00:41:08,166
I'm gonna lay it out for you.
788
00:41:08,199 --> 00:41:10,168
One time
789
00:41:10,201 --> 00:41:13,705
your community needed you
790
00:41:13,739 --> 00:41:15,607
at that protest,
791
00:41:15,641 --> 00:41:17,442
and you didn't show up.
792
00:41:17,475 --> 00:41:20,311
-(indistinct chatter)
-ATTENDEE: That's right.
793
00:41:24,415 --> 00:41:26,217
-I was working.
-PRAY TELL: Yeah.
794
00:41:26,251 --> 00:41:28,453
-You work the night shift.
-(crowd oohing)
795
00:41:28,486 --> 00:41:31,723
The protest was in the morning.
Don't give me that bullshit.
796
00:41:31,757 --> 00:41:33,358
So, what did I miss?
797
00:41:33,391 --> 00:41:36,027
A bunch of fags holding hands,
screaming into the wind?
798
00:41:36,061 --> 00:41:37,696
ATTENDEE 2:
Shame!
799
00:41:42,500 --> 00:41:45,470
I went to jail.
800
00:41:45,503 --> 00:41:48,707
111 people
801
00:41:48,740 --> 00:41:50,709
went to jail.
802
00:41:50,742 --> 00:41:53,979
You are more concerned
about winning a trophy
803
00:41:54,012 --> 00:41:55,981
than you are
about our government
804
00:41:56,014 --> 00:42:00,251
spreading lies about us
in an effort to kill us!
805
00:42:00,285 --> 00:42:02,420
And you want to know
why they want us dead?
806
00:42:02,453 --> 00:42:05,924
Because we're black and
we're brown and we're queer.
807
00:42:05,957 --> 00:42:07,859
They don't give a shit about us,
808
00:42:07,893 --> 00:42:11,229
so we better start
caring about ourselves.
809
00:42:11,262 --> 00:42:15,266
Show up for your lives!
Wake up!
810
00:42:25,243 --> 00:42:28,714
Jack, where are you?
Come on up here
811
00:42:28,747 --> 00:42:30,048
and call out
the rest of these categories
812
00:42:30,081 --> 00:42:31,783
before the back of my head
blows off.
813
00:42:31,817 --> 00:42:33,752
-(crowd oohing)
-I got to go home.
814
00:42:33,785 --> 00:42:37,088
(cheering, applause)
815
00:42:37,122 --> 00:42:39,357
Wake the fuck up.
816
00:42:39,390 --> 00:42:40,792
ATTENDEE 3:
That's right.
817
00:42:48,834 --> 00:42:51,436
* Back to life,
back to reality... *
818
00:42:51,469 --> 00:42:53,304
MIZRAHI:
The category is...
819
00:42:53,338 --> 00:42:56,374
(rolling R):
Runway.
820
00:42:56,407 --> 00:43:00,045
Bring it like the booked
black beauties in Vogue.
821
00:43:00,078 --> 00:43:04,582
You ain't never gonna hit no
real runway, we all know that.
822
00:43:04,616 --> 00:43:08,887
But you can serve
a look so flawless
823
00:43:08,920 --> 00:43:12,490
that you fool us like
little Miss Grace Jones-ish
824
00:43:12,523 --> 00:43:15,727
is doing right here, baby.
825
00:43:15,761 --> 00:43:19,264
She's over here serving you
trash bag realness, darlings.
826
00:43:19,297 --> 00:43:20,799
Sponsored by Glad.
827
00:43:20,832 --> 00:43:23,001
Hefty, hefty, hefty.
828
00:43:23,034 --> 00:43:24,970
Wimpy, wimpy, wimpy.
829
00:43:25,003 --> 00:43:28,606
She came to take
all the garbage out tonight.
830
00:43:28,640 --> 00:43:31,076
Now who do we have here?
831
00:43:31,109 --> 00:43:32,644
(cheering, applause)
832
00:43:32,678 --> 00:43:36,514
Yes, Miss Pat Cleveland, I see.
833
00:43:38,549 --> 00:43:39,851
Oh, she's twirling
and a-trotting
834
00:43:39,885 --> 00:43:41,252
like no other for you.
835
00:43:41,286 --> 00:43:43,689
Goddess! Athena!
836
00:43:43,722 --> 00:43:46,624
Aphrodite! Minerva!
837
00:43:46,658 --> 00:43:48,459
Okay, anybody else walking?
838
00:43:48,493 --> 00:43:49,928
I see commotion back there.
839
00:43:49,961 --> 00:43:52,097
Okay, I see it.
840
00:43:52,130 --> 00:43:54,199
(cheering)
841
00:43:54,232 --> 00:43:56,601
Remember when I said ethereal?
842
00:43:56,634 --> 00:43:58,003
Otherworldly?
843
00:43:58,036 --> 00:44:02,808
Miss Angel, you are giving
just that, baby.
844
00:44:05,911 --> 00:44:08,046
Her homage to
It girl Veronica Webb.
845
00:44:08,079 --> 00:44:11,116
Oh, please, she is
truly unmatched.
846
00:44:11,149 --> 00:44:13,952
This is how you do it.
847
00:44:13,985 --> 00:44:17,655
That is a model.
That is a cover girl.
848
00:44:17,689 --> 00:44:19,524
Now, judges,
849
00:44:19,557 --> 00:44:22,627
our girls are serving a fantasy,
850
00:44:22,660 --> 00:44:25,797
one that requires you
to suspend disbelief
851
00:44:25,831 --> 00:44:28,499
and imagine them
on the real runway,
852
00:44:28,533 --> 00:44:30,035
in actual print.
853
00:44:30,068 --> 00:44:32,971
Would they stack up
on the newsstands?
854
00:44:33,004 --> 00:44:35,473
Scores for Miss Grace Jones
855
00:44:35,506 --> 00:44:37,909
and her glistening cocoa skin?
856
00:44:37,943 --> 00:44:41,479
Ten, ten, nine, nine, ten.
857
00:44:41,512 --> 00:44:44,315
Well done.
And Miss Pat Cleveland
858
00:44:44,349 --> 00:44:46,852
and her flight of fancy? Ten,
859
00:44:46,885 --> 00:44:49,354
nine, nine, ten,
860
00:44:49,387 --> 00:44:52,090
ten. And what about
861
00:44:52,123 --> 00:44:55,060
Miss Angel Evangelista?
862
00:44:55,093 --> 00:44:56,361
(cheering)
863
00:44:56,394 --> 00:44:59,530
* Tens across the board. *
864
00:44:59,564 --> 00:45:01,066
Come and collect, girl!
865
00:45:01,099 --> 00:45:03,201
This is what I am talking about.
866
00:45:03,234 --> 00:45:06,504
On the way to legendary,
a feared name in ballroom.
867
00:45:06,537 --> 00:45:10,842
Structure, beautiful,
poised, attitude.
868
00:45:10,876 --> 00:45:13,544
She has the makings
of a star girl,
869
00:45:13,578 --> 00:45:15,013
a cover girl!
870
00:45:15,046 --> 00:45:16,915
(cheering)
871
00:45:28,393 --> 00:45:30,161
(crying)
872
00:45:42,941 --> 00:45:44,309
What's going on, mama?
873
00:45:44,342 --> 00:45:47,712
You're supposed
to be celebrating.
874
00:45:47,745 --> 00:45:49,214
You the queen of that
model category.
875
00:45:49,247 --> 00:45:51,249
Yeah, in there.
876
00:45:53,184 --> 00:45:56,621
I want a victory outside
of the ballroom, Papi.
877
00:45:58,689 --> 00:46:01,659
(crying):
I'm never gonna be a real model.
878
00:46:01,692 --> 00:46:03,795
That may be true
for them girls in there,
879
00:46:03,829 --> 00:46:06,865
but that is not
your destiny, Angel.
880
00:46:09,334 --> 00:46:11,636
I got to tell y'all something.
881
00:46:11,669 --> 00:46:13,671
What's up?
882
00:46:18,276 --> 00:46:19,978
Please, y-you have to promise
883
00:46:20,011 --> 00:46:22,113
you're not gonna
be disappointed.
884
00:46:22,147 --> 00:46:23,314
Never.
885
00:46:29,120 --> 00:46:31,322
That photographer clocked me.
886
00:46:34,025 --> 00:46:37,128
He recognized me from the piers.
887
00:46:38,496 --> 00:46:40,932
And, look, I didn't
have enough money
888
00:46:40,966 --> 00:46:43,168
to pay for the photo shoot.
889
00:46:45,370 --> 00:46:47,805
So he...
890
00:46:47,839 --> 00:46:51,376
-so he took
dirty pictures of me.
-What?
891
00:46:51,409 --> 00:46:54,712
He took pictures
of everything, Papi.
892
00:46:54,745 --> 00:46:56,647
He saw everything.
893
00:46:57,849 --> 00:47:00,886
What if he sells them
to some-some porno magazine?
894
00:47:00,919 --> 00:47:03,188
And then I'm branded as a dirty
895
00:47:03,221 --> 00:47:06,291
transsexual hooker
for the rest of my life.
896
00:47:06,324 --> 00:47:09,727
-Mama, the whole world
will know.
-Nah. Nah.
897
00:47:09,760 --> 00:47:11,296
-The whole world.
-Nah, this is not happening
898
00:47:11,329 --> 00:47:13,965
on my watch.
Do you hear me?
899
00:47:13,999 --> 00:47:16,701
With what I got planned? With
what you deserve in this world?
900
00:47:16,734 --> 00:47:19,971
Hell no.
Hell no.
901
00:47:20,005 --> 00:47:22,707
We getting what's yours.
What's his address?
902
00:47:22,740 --> 00:47:25,810
Where the fucking
pictures at, huh?!
903
00:47:25,843 --> 00:47:29,247
Give Angel her fucking pictures.
904
00:47:29,280 --> 00:47:31,983
I want my photos!
Where are they?
905
00:47:32,017 --> 00:47:34,852
-They're over there.
-Be more specific. Point!
906
00:47:34,886 --> 00:47:36,354
On the corner of the desk.
907
00:47:42,727 --> 00:47:45,430
Angel, baby, you are stunning.
908
00:47:45,463 --> 00:47:49,267
-Really?
-Yeah. Where the negatives?
909
00:47:49,300 --> 00:47:51,970
They're locked in the bottom
cabinet. The key is on the desk.
910
00:47:57,808 --> 00:48:00,478
-ANGEL: Come on, come on...
-Y'all good over there?
911
00:48:03,748 --> 00:48:05,750
These all of them?
912
00:48:14,325 --> 00:48:18,063
If you ever try exploiting
my daughter again,
913
00:48:18,096 --> 00:48:20,398
I'm not coming with
my son's fists the next time.
914
00:48:20,431 --> 00:48:23,734
Yeah, you hear that,
you punk-ass bitch?
915
00:48:38,616 --> 00:48:41,452
You don't know what it took
for me to get here, Ms. Ford.
916
00:48:47,692 --> 00:48:49,694
I want a shot.
917
00:48:54,032 --> 00:48:57,835
A real... shot.
918
00:49:10,448 --> 00:49:12,050
Hmm.
919
00:49:18,156 --> 00:49:21,559
Absolutely beautiful.
920
00:49:43,148 --> 00:49:45,150
(scrubbing continuing)
921
00:50:00,731 --> 00:50:04,202
-Ain't no dirt on that floor.
-(laughs)
922
00:50:06,271 --> 00:50:07,538
You need a new job, Mother.
923
00:50:07,572 --> 00:50:09,574
You don't do well with
too much time on your hands.
924
00:50:09,607 --> 00:50:10,841
In a few days,
you'll have scrubbed
925
00:50:10,875 --> 00:50:12,077
the paint off all the walls
926
00:50:12,110 --> 00:50:14,879
and forced Lil Papi
to run for mayor or some shit.
927
00:50:14,912 --> 00:50:17,315
(sighs)
928
00:50:17,348 --> 00:50:19,684
Maybe I'm going a little crazy.
929
00:50:19,717 --> 00:50:21,386
Quitting a good job
and thinking I could create
930
00:50:21,419 --> 00:50:24,189
some kind of immortality to...
931
00:50:24,222 --> 00:50:28,426
(sighs) see through my house
and my... my children.
932
00:50:31,596 --> 00:50:33,264
Maybe it's better to dream small
933
00:50:33,298 --> 00:50:36,101
or not dream at all.
934
00:50:36,134 --> 00:50:37,768
At least then
935
00:50:37,802 --> 00:50:40,438
you can die with some dignity
still intact.
936
00:50:40,471 --> 00:50:42,473
(chuckles)
937
00:50:44,909 --> 00:50:46,911
I'm sorry, I'm...
938
00:50:46,944 --> 00:50:50,881
(sighs)
939
00:50:50,915 --> 00:50:54,119
My T cell count is low,
and I'm feeling morbid.
940
00:50:54,152 --> 00:50:56,921
How low?
941
00:50:59,924 --> 00:51:02,927
Well, not low enough to stop
scrubbing these damn floors.
942
00:51:22,113 --> 00:51:24,115
Mama.
943
00:51:37,595 --> 00:51:40,465
(sighs)
944
00:51:50,208 --> 00:51:52,810
-I made top ten.
-What?
945
00:51:52,843 --> 00:51:54,812
Angel...
946
00:51:54,845 --> 00:51:56,614
Angel, are you serious?
947
00:51:57,948 --> 00:51:59,083
Yes.
948
00:51:59,116 --> 00:52:01,952
(laughing):
What?
949
00:52:01,986 --> 00:52:03,488
Oh, my...
950
00:52:05,223 --> 00:52:09,927
Well, Miss Angel, you better get
ready for the ride of your life.
951
00:52:09,960 --> 00:52:11,762
(chuckles)
952
00:52:11,796 --> 00:52:13,431
I'm ready.
953
00:52:13,464 --> 00:52:17,202
Hear, hear!
To Miss Angel Evangelista
954
00:52:17,235 --> 00:52:20,205
purring down every catwalk.
955
00:52:20,238 --> 00:52:21,272
(mouths)
956
00:52:21,306 --> 00:52:23,007
From New York to Paris
957
00:52:23,040 --> 00:52:26,043
to Milan.
958
00:52:26,076 --> 00:52:27,212
-Meow.
-To Angel.
959
00:52:27,245 --> 00:52:28,579
ALL:
To Angel!
960
00:52:31,148 --> 00:52:32,683
And, and....
961
00:52:32,717 --> 00:52:36,187
-to Miss Blanca Evangelista...
-Me?
962
00:52:36,221 --> 00:52:39,056
...the mother
who made it all happen.
963
00:52:39,089 --> 00:52:42,993
She seems to see the future
964
00:52:43,027 --> 00:52:45,996
better than any fortune teller
that I've ever been to.
965
00:52:46,030 --> 00:52:47,798
-Come on, Mother.
-(chuckles)
966
00:52:47,832 --> 00:52:48,966
ANGEL:
You know it.
967
00:52:48,999 --> 00:52:50,401
How-some-ever...
968
00:52:50,435 --> 00:52:52,503
(overlapping chatter)
969
00:52:52,537 --> 00:52:55,139
...I still ain't gonna let
Sue Simmons up into my balls
970
00:52:55,172 --> 00:52:58,175
to ruin all of our lives
with her tabloid news stories.
971
00:52:58,209 --> 00:52:59,877
-Oh, boy.
-Okay?
972
00:52:59,910 --> 00:53:02,713
-LIL PAPI: He said that's it.
-To Mother Blanca Evangelista!
973
00:53:02,747 --> 00:53:05,082
-ALL: To Blanca!
-Mother Blanca!
974
00:53:06,451 --> 00:53:10,221
All right, well, listen,
I love you, too, Pray,
975
00:53:10,255 --> 00:53:12,990
but I'm not giving up
on letting them reporters in
976
00:53:13,023 --> 00:53:16,594
to seeing how amazing
and magical our community is.
977
00:53:16,627 --> 00:53:19,264
And you know that I am
as stubborn as an old drag queen
978
00:53:19,297 --> 00:53:22,500
with a 5:00 shadow
at 3:00 in the "morn-ting."
979
00:53:22,533 --> 00:53:23,601
(laughter)
980
00:53:23,634 --> 00:53:25,236
-Okay?
-Okay, fine.
981
00:53:25,270 --> 00:53:28,205
So good luck with that, bitch.
982
00:53:28,239 --> 00:53:30,841
Look at what the cat dragged in.
983
00:53:30,875 --> 00:53:34,412
Somebody please hospitalize me
so I can have a decent meal.
984
00:53:34,445 --> 00:53:37,214
What? Excuse me? You know
that Friday night dinner
985
00:53:37,248 --> 00:53:38,849
starts at 8:00 p.m. sharp,
986
00:53:38,883 --> 00:53:40,851
and you didn't even
set the table this week.
987
00:53:40,885 --> 00:53:44,522
How much effort does it take
to throw down some paper plates?
988
00:53:44,555 --> 00:53:46,557
Why is it so hard
for you to be nice?
989
00:53:46,591 --> 00:53:49,260
Like, why can't you say,
"I'm sorry" or "I was late"
990
00:53:49,294 --> 00:53:50,428
or "I made a mistake"?
991
00:53:50,461 --> 00:53:51,762
You want to talk
about being nice?
992
00:53:51,796 --> 00:53:55,132
I recall that it was just
last weekend when Pray Tell
993
00:53:55,165 --> 00:53:57,968
disrespected me in front
of all my peers at the ball.
994
00:53:58,002 --> 00:53:59,970
Ain't nobody disrespect you.
995
00:54:00,004 --> 00:54:03,874
I called your black selfish ass
out for being a bad example,
996
00:54:03,908 --> 00:54:06,277
and it's about time
somebody did.
997
00:54:06,311 --> 00:54:08,479
And this is not about your
stank-ass attitude, Elektra,
998
00:54:08,513 --> 00:54:11,148
this is about you showing up
to be a part of the house.
999
00:54:11,181 --> 00:54:13,551
And you didn't pay your share
of the rent this month.
1000
00:54:13,584 --> 00:54:15,453
Neither did any of these
little bottom feeders!
1001
00:54:15,486 --> 00:54:17,154
Elektra, they ain't got
no money.
1002
00:54:17,187 --> 00:54:19,223
But you, with all these
new furs and jewelry,
1003
00:54:19,256 --> 00:54:21,392
strutting around, but you must
be getting plenty of money
1004
00:54:21,426 --> 00:54:22,627
from somewhere.
Where is you getting
1005
00:54:22,660 --> 00:54:24,295
all this money from,
Queen of the Nile?
1006
00:54:24,329 --> 00:54:27,164
Where is you getting
all this finery?
1007
00:54:29,266 --> 00:54:32,303
I don't owe you an explanation
for anything.
1008
00:54:32,337 --> 00:54:33,738
I've had enough of this abuse.
1009
00:54:33,771 --> 00:54:35,840
Just because I was down
on my luck for a moment
1010
00:54:35,873 --> 00:54:37,975
does not mean I'll spend
the rest of my life
1011
00:54:38,008 --> 00:54:39,444
living like some
indentured servant.
1012
00:54:39,477 --> 00:54:43,648
I am not a slum rat
like the rest of you whores!
1013
00:54:43,681 --> 00:54:45,950
I don't owe you any answers,
1014
00:54:45,983 --> 00:54:47,685
I don't owe you any manners,
1015
00:54:47,718 --> 00:54:49,787
and I most certainly don't
owe you a goddamn apology
1016
00:54:49,820 --> 00:54:51,456
for being late to a 99-cent meal
1017
00:54:51,489 --> 00:54:53,558
made from canned meat
and prison-grade toilet wine!
1018
00:54:58,463 --> 00:54:59,797
-Guess what.
-You don't have to
1019
00:54:59,830 --> 00:55:02,367
tell me I'm out of the house.
I quit, bitch!
1020
00:55:02,400 --> 00:55:05,470
And you best not ever show your
face in the ballrooms again.
1021
00:55:05,503 --> 00:55:07,338
I'm going to eat you alive
on that runway.
1022
00:55:07,372 --> 00:55:10,741
Of that you can be sure!
1023
00:55:14,745 --> 00:55:16,213
("Vogue" by Madonna playing)
1024
00:55:16,246 --> 00:55:17,982
(door slams)
1025
00:55:20,551 --> 00:55:22,753
-Can I have her bed?
-(sighs)
1026
00:55:37,201 --> 00:55:38,436
(doorbell rings)
1027
00:55:42,172 --> 00:55:45,376
I'm joining your house.
You're welcome, bitches.
1028
00:55:46,611 --> 00:55:48,513
How's everybody feeling tonight?
1029
00:55:48,546 --> 00:55:50,047
(cheering)
1030
00:55:50,080 --> 00:55:51,248
PRAY TELL:
All right, all right.
1031
00:55:51,281 --> 00:55:53,083
So, listen, I just want
to take a moment
1032
00:55:53,117 --> 00:55:56,454
to acknowledge one of the
pioneers of the ballroom.
1033
00:55:59,624 --> 00:56:05,062
In 1970, Pop, Spin, Dip
1034
00:56:05,095 --> 00:56:06,497
was introduced
1035
00:56:06,531 --> 00:56:09,400
right here
on the ballroom floor.
1036
00:56:09,434 --> 00:56:11,001
Now, as legend would have it,
1037
00:56:11,035 --> 00:56:14,772
Paris Dupree was flipping
through a Vogue magazine
1038
00:56:14,805 --> 00:56:18,576
and saw the poses
that the models were doing.
1039
00:56:18,609 --> 00:56:20,578
She brought it right back here
to the ballroom floor,
1040
00:56:20,611 --> 00:56:24,014
imitating the models
to the beat.
1041
00:56:24,048 --> 00:56:28,886
This is the category
as we know it today.
1042
00:56:28,919 --> 00:56:30,921
Know your history, children.
1043
00:56:30,955 --> 00:56:34,725
Now, let's Vogue like Paris!
1044
00:56:36,260 --> 00:56:38,429

-* You know you can do it *
1050
00:56:54,579 --> 00:56:57,147
* Beauty's where you find it *
1051
00:56:57,181 --> 00:57:01,418
* Not just where you
bump and grind it *
1052
00:57:01,452 --> 00:57:05,122
* Soul is in the music, oh *
1053
00:57:05,155 --> 00:57:09,627
* That's where I feel
so beautiful *
1054
00:57:09,660 --> 00:57:13,097
-* Magical, life's a ball *
-(shouts)
1055
00:57:13,130 --> 00:57:15,833
* So get up on the dance floor *
1056
00:57:15,866 --> 00:57:18,402
* Come on, Vogue... *
1057
00:57:18,435 --> 00:57:19,804
(laughing)
1058
00:57:19,837 --> 00:57:22,239
* Let your body move
to the music *
1059
00:57:22,272 --> 00:57:24,241
-* Move to the music *
-* Hey, hey, hey... *
1060
00:57:24,274 --> 00:57:26,777
I told you,
everything is changing.
1061
00:57:26,811 --> 00:57:29,079
This is just the beginning.
1062
00:57:29,113 --> 00:57:31,081
(cheering)
1063
00:57:31,115 --> 00:57:35,019
* You know you can do it *
1064
00:57:35,052 --> 00:57:37,054
* Vogue, Vogue, Vogue, Vogue. *
