Goodnight, my sweetheart.

May Mister Sandman bless your dreams.

Goodnight!

Te amo, my sweet prince.

See you in the morning!

You workin' a double tonight, Kat?

Oh, yes. There's a big game and they stay all hours.

You know. But that crowd loves me.

And they give great tips. Thank God for all-night diners.

I tip well, too, baby!

Oh, I know you're upset about losing the firm.

It's been a rough six months, you know?

But if you don't like me working these, uh, shifts,

maybe you should consider going back to work. You know, they're

looking for a general manager.

A discredited shark intruding on a greasy spoon?

Talk about a double-sided coin.

Well, with your skill set, uhh,

you would be a great conductor.

And you are no intruder.

All the expertise that you would bring.

And we need two incomes.

So, umm, I'll see you in the morning.

And there's sweet rolls in the fridge for you and the kids.

Good night.

Oh. And lock the door.

Hmm.

Cierra la puerta

Come on, Isaac! Time's up!

Give me five more minutes.

Ugh. We had a deal, Perry Mason.

How long does it take to shave a face?

I got some legs that need some TLC, tonight.

Another date, Em?

Another interview, Mr. Unemployed?

Hey. Easy on the cross examination.

I am the lawyer in the family.

Well that's nice. But you're still unemployed.

Five more minutes. And don't cut your face up, bro'.

What is that?

It was my doorknob.

First the bathroom, then the back door and now this.

I'm looking for a handyman.

How'd it go?

Really well. I think. I'm following up next week.

Good!

Emily, a handyman is going to cost us a fortune.

Even if I get this job, I won't be seeing any money

until next month.

I had a feeling you'd say that.

We could rent out Mom and Dad's old room.

I thought we decided that wasn't a good idea.

Mom and Dad are at the old folks home.

Retirement community.

Okay. Yeah. Whatever. Look, they gave us this home.

We can do whatever we want!

Look. I do well managing the sleep disorder center.

But my salary alone? I can't afford the upgrades here.

And your unemployment checks aren't going to come in forever.

I know.

Okay. So, how do we find a tenant?

What? What did you do?

I may have already listed it on Craig's List.

- Look what I got. - Well, it doesn't surprise me.

Well I wasn't going to let you plea bargain me out of another

brilliant suggestion.

What do you think?

Mmm. I'm getting a serial killer vibes.

Yeaaah.

Well, hey! You're a criminal attorney.

There's your next case! Hahaha. Right.

Alright.

Hmmm.

She looks like she steals things. My things.

Yeah. You don't need that.

Nope.

Ooo!

What about this guy?

You almost had me. Ha.Ha.

Hardly.

I liked it better when it wasn't a competition.

You're not the prosecution and I'm not the defense.

I withdraw the comment.

Ughh.

I'm sorry. It's just, difficult.

You know, with the space, the angles.

Once you fix this place up, you can remodel that shower.

And then you can stop using that as an excuse.

And the night is young.

Uh. I've just got a lot on my mind.

I need to be alone.

Again?

Just, just forget it.

Forget it?

You won't even let me get close to you anymore, Isaac.

Look, I think we need a break.

All the secrets and the chilly reception every time

I try to just touch you--

- It, it's, it's-- - No.

No, Isaac.

If we're not going to talk about these things, I can't do it.

I can't be fifty percent with you.

SOFT DRAMATIC MUSIC FADES IN]

I can't.

Ash.

Ash!

Happy Anniversary, by the way.

It was seven months today.

Isaac? You okay, babe?

- Yeah. - You sure?

Yeah!

You don't sound too convincing.

Something is wrong with me.

Why are you looking at me like that?

It's my face, bro. It's the only face I got.

You're waiting for me to say something so you can sit on your

high horse and judge.

Well? Are you going to say something?

Why don't you shut up? You're always trying to make shit hard.

You know that?

Now, let us know what's up. We want to help you, babe.

- With all my time off work- - Yeah, what is up with that?

'Cuz I mean with your attorney skills, you'll get snatched up

like that. Like always.

Are you confused about something?

- Since I can remember. - Uh-oh!

Shut your mouth!

- Did Isaac just come out? - What?

Did those rusty closet doors come flying off their hinges?

- James! - What?

Dude! I knew you was gay since high school--

And what makes you such an expert, RuPaul?

Have you been hiding something from us?

Have you been double-dipping after hours?

- I'm not gay. Okay. Okay. - I'm not fucking gay.

Okay.

Okay, why are you confused? Is it Ashley?

Ashley broke up with me.

Aw, man, babe. I am so sorry about that.

Didn't see that coming!

Owww! We was all getting the vibes!

I'm not going to baby him.

You really lack empathy, you know that?

You and Isaac have been friends the longest. And you are still

such a fucking ass to him.

- Right. - Yeah.

You are being an ass, James.

Wow.

Was I being an ass when I saved your life?

In case you forgot?

Oh! And who did I save your ass from?

I haven't forgotten.

Right.

Ughh, God.

That 'phobe needs to shut up and be more understanding.

Isaac, you were seventeen. That was over ten years ago!

He has to stop holding that over your head.

Even it was a hate crime he saved you from.

- He took a beating for me. - Okay. Fine.

He got his ass kicked.

Isaac, he's holding you hostage with that.

So. What's going on with you?

Being with Ashley. It, it never excited me.

- Maybe the first few times-- - Wait. It didn't excite you?

As in, it didn't arouse you?

- I don't know. - Come on. It's me.

Okay, fine. I'm going to text you this address.

I want you to go to this club and let me know what you think.

I am telling you. I was afraid. Why would-

- Afraid of what? Were you harassed?

- No. I- - Look, Isaac.

Ughh, maybe that's your thing.

Hi!

- Mark, right? - Yeah!

And you must be, Emily?

That's right.

Well, come on in! I'll show you around the palazzo!

- Okay. - Mm-ha-ha-ha.

And this room right in here is our

beautiful kitchen.

Where this, uh, incredible light just shines through,

throughout the day.

Keeping it nice and warm.

Oh! And you are going to love the bedroom.

There's plenty of space for a,

king-size bed.

Or a queen.

Or a what?

- If his is too big. - Ah.

I'm Isaac.

Mark.

Nice to meet you.

You going to give him back his hand?

Yeah.

Uhh, does the AC work at all?

- Well-- Yeah. - We're currently working on it.

- We have our handy man on it. - Yeah.

Yeah, just takes a little while.

I'm gonna be honest with you guys.

I don't think it's for me.

Are you sure? We have hardwood floors. Hot water--

Yeah. We have cable.

Hot water! Wifi! And, and we're very friendly and hip!

I, I, I'm pretty sure. But it was very nice meeting you both.

- Are you sure? - I'm pretty sure--

I'm a much better host than she is.

--Amazing. You don't even need air conditioning.

You don't even feel it at night. It's so fresh!

And we're very friendly!

Are, are you sure? We, we have cable--

- Thank you so much. - We have a microwave with the

little table. Spinning table thingy! Like it d--

You were flirting with him.

Yeah. That's the reason.

Or maybe it was just all your weird innuendo shit

that turned him off.

What are you saying?

I'm saying I don't need you to play fucking matchmaker, okay?

I don't care about the size of his bed. Or the size of his

bulge in, in his Expresses!

So you liked him.

Come on. We have to get ready for Mom and Dad.

That's today?

Why are you acting like that?

All weird Twilight Zoney?

- Whoa-ho-ho-ho! Martha Stewart! - Hahahaha.

Oh, you are such a wonderful cook!

Oh, you're so sweet, Mom!

Well, you, you could, uh, moonlight as a caterer,

- you know! - Ah-haha.

- When she's sleepwalking? - Daddy!

Thanks, Mom. But you know my heart's at the sleep center.

Some people's waking hours are their nightmares.

Or she could be a standup comic. Ah. Ha. Ha. Ha. Ha.

There's nothing amusing about sleeping disorders, Daddy.

Must be lot's of yard sales on weekends, huh?

Yeah, there is.

Ah. You know, the place is really coming along.

Has very homey feeling. Uh, perfect for a, a family.

As a matter of fact, love yard sales!

- Yeah! - Lot's of hidden gems.

A lady of high standards!

Is that supposed to mean something?

Uh. So, um,

I heard you were, uh, let go by your firm.

Are, are you okay, sweetie? Do you need any money, honey?

- No. - We're here to help.

- I'm fine, Mom. - Are you sure?

- Yes! - You know, because we're always

here to support you. Both of you.

Stop diapering the boy, Kat. He's a grown man.

He can get his own life together.

I have my life together. I'm just not gainfully employed.

Well, bowl us over with your skills, F. Lee Bailey.

Excuse me.

You know. You could make a greater effort with him.

Show him a little tenderness. That you show me.

He's not his father's son, Kat.

He's sleepwalking, too.

Mmm.

He is not my father.

He's as much your father as I am your mother.

I don't understand why you're still with him.

He treats everyone like shit.

When he has his demons with--

He's the perfect gentleman.

But after a few drinks he turns into this

competitive son of a--

He was adamant about bringing that flask.

Despite my best efforts.

At home he, uh, he rarely drinks.

Even after the surgery.

Tsk.

But you know that I love you and your sister.

That's all that matters.

He has my number. He always has.

Ughh. I know that.

But,

I'm here. Right now. Right?

Yeah.

We'll be back here next week.

I love you.

He's not my father.

Hey!

Mark?

- Isaac! - Yeah!

Umm. Sorry I didn't take that room.

Don't worry, I don't blame you for passing.

A VCU hat?

That's where I went for grad school.

- Seriously? - Yeah.

- What did you study? - Law.

Biological science.

That's amazing! I used to study in the silent study rooms.

Such a good place for naps, too.

Great minds think alike.

I spent many happy hours tucked away in those rooms.

That's crazy.

We were both there at the same time.

I wonder if our paths ever crossed?

If you got your coffee at Greenberry's!

- It's highly likely! - Shut up! I did!

You know this is, this is kismet!

Serendipity!

Do you still have that room available?

Mister Slumlord?

What do you think, roomie?

Does the dress make the woman?

Or does the woman make the dress?

"Elegance is a beauty that never fades."

Audrey Hepburn.

So!

Is Emily Smith a fashion icon for there ages?

A style muse?

I took this room because your brother

made me feel comfortable.

Yeah, he has a knack for that.

What do you mean?

Well he's just been through a lot, you know?

Growing up, especially.

But even so, he still has a way to make everyone feel happy.

And comfortable.

Thank you.

I gotta take this.

Mmm!

Won't start?

Yeah.

If it's a warm night, it turns over. If it's a cold night

- I'm screwed. - Hop in.

- Really? - Yeah! Come on.

- Thanks. - You're welcome.

So, you know that show "Dexter"?

- Yeah. - I'm sorta like that.

- Like, I do forensics. - Uh-huh.

Except I don't kill people. - Hahaha.

Maybe I should raise your rent.

Somebody's making more money than me.

What about you, What do you do?

I'm a lawyer. I'm just currently without a law firm.

They had to downsize and I was the new kid on the block.

Tsk. I'm sorry to hear that.

I've been there.

But hey, you're young.

You're intelligent. You're-

Handsome. You're a catch!

One of these other firms is going to snatch you up

before you know it.

You're sweet.

By the way, your sister, uhh,

She's a kick!

Yeah. She's been through a lot.

That's what she said about you.

We-

She. Had a very difficult childhood.

We were adopted. And lucked out with really loving parents.

Especially our mother.

And then, Emily started having these horrible nightmares.

I can't go into it, but it was really horrific.

The counselors couldn't get to the heart of it. And she refused

to talk about it, even now.

Do you?

Have nightmares?

Why do you ask?

Well, last night it sounded like you cried out.

In your sleep.

I mean your door was locked, but It sounded like you were

wrestling.

With your sheets.

Or maybe your demons?

The crime lab analyst yields his forensic eye.

Can we talk about something else?

Sure!

What about the uhh, the old love life?

Is Mister Smith playing the field?

I believe in client confidentiality.

- Oh, do you now? Hmm. - Mmm-hmm!

He told me that if I ever told my parents,

he would come back and kill them.

And my sister, too.

And they never caught the guy?

I overheard my Dad talking about it.

Apparently, the intruder just walked right into the houses.

That's what the papers said.

What I overheard.

I don't understand why the guy kept targeting our house.

How do you know it was a man?

It could have been a woman.

He penetrated me.

The people that-

do those awful things.

They're really good at hiding.

A lot of times nobody finds them.

Emily said you, umm,

you broke up with your girlfriend recently?

Yeah.

I was dating this girl but-

something didn't feel-

right.

It happens.

We all grow and, and change and

sometimes people grow apart.

I can tell you're going through a lot.

So if you ever need somebody to talk to,

I want you to ask me.

- And lube, too. - Aw, man!

How was it?!

It was,

- did you enjoy yourself? - Yes!

- loved it. - Yes!

UPLIFTING MUSIC FADES OUT]

So, Mark.

What do you do for work?

I'm a forensic biologist.

I work with the police department.

Mmm! That's a hell of a job.

Why don't you put in a good word for Isaac here.

Isaac's a talented attorney. I'm sure he'll get picked up-

- Why do you do that? - What?

Whenever you get a few drinks in you, you belittle me.

- Isaac. - I'm going to go do the dishes.

No, baby. Relax. Sit down.

My baby girl.

Now, let's hear some more about what Clarence Darrow has to say.

Mathew, please. This is not the time

or the place to talk about this.

It is the perfect time and place, Mom.

What is it?

Is it my skin?

My voice?

My hair?

Isaac.

I want to know.

He's a sensitive boy, Mark.

- You want to know what it is? - Mathew, please.

It's because that third world skank, you call a mother.

That's what it is.

Ahhh.

Oh. Ho. Ho. Ho. Ho. Ho. Ho.

She had squat.

No savings. No equity. No credit card.

So I was compensated in a more exotic fashion.

And what thanks do I get?

Disciplinary action courtesy of the state bar authority

for violating ethical standards. That's right.

Her dirty ass squealed.

- Vo-voy a hacer lo que usted-- - I'll do what you--

And every time I lay my eyes on you, dear son.

There is her shadow having the last laugh.

Mama crushes the firm. Offspring takes the house.

Grab daddy another beer, baby. Arrg.

None of that,

misguided rhetoric

has anything to do with me.

Or my sister.

And we didn't take this house. You gave it to us.

Mathew. Please.

You knew all this?

Hm-hm-hm-hm-hm-hm-hm-hm.

Surprise.

You-

Hm-hm-hm-hm-hm-hm-.

You're like one of those Shakespearean characters who

loses his marbles.

You and your-

baby soft,

non-secreting little sister.

Mathew?

Oh!

Oh. Oh. Oh.

He was working on your mother's case.

Mariana.

Her name was, Mariana.

She came into his office with both of you.

You'd just immigrated from El Salvador.

Escaping your, uh, biological father.

Ismael.

He was a bad man.

The state was trying to send the three of you back.

She paid Mathew with sex.

But when she resisted his violent hunger for control,

he grew tired of her.

And he dropped her case.

She was deported back to El Salvador.

But not before reporting his abuse.

And turning in that rape kit she was strongly encouraged

to provide to the police.

And he lost everything.

So,

our biological mother is still alive?

Is she?

- No. - Mis hijos no, por favor.

Mama!

Your biological father-

was a drug lord. He called the hit.

They were going to deport the three of you.

So,

I adopted you. So you, you wouldn't be killed.

I love you both so much.

I wouldn't change a thing.

Isaac, I-

I am so sorry.

Mommy, why the hell did you stay with him?

¶ SAD PIANO MUSIC ¶

Pick a fear.

Turning out like my father.

You'd make a wonderful dad.

Thank you.

I don't think it's in the cards.

I would love that kid more than anything.

More than my father ever loved me.

Any Tom, Dick or Harry can be a father.

Takes a special person to be a dad.

That's you.

Are you HIV positive?

Where did that come from?

What was the mistake you made in college?

It wasn't a sexually transmitted-

It wasn't disease-related.

I would have disclosed that to you.

I promise.

So, what was it?

Uh, I'm sorry.

Ah, I gotta take this.

Of course I'm happy. I'm just surprised.

Yes, I'm excited to see you.

For such a handsome boy I'll be there.

I promise.

I miss you, too.

- Ahh. - What are you doing?

Work beckons.

I thought this was your day off.

Yeah. A co-worker called in sick, so

I got to pick up the slack. I'm going to shower before I go in.

Why do you do that?

Do what?

Whenever your phone rings,

you always leave the room. Always.

'Cuz it's not important.

It's just work or-

bill collectors.

Bill collectors?

You're gainfully employed.

You earn a good salary.

Yeah. I'm still paying back those frickin' student loans.

So tonight. I was thinking maybe we could--

I- have to be up early.

End of the work week.

Hey.

Richmond number.

Richmond number?

So. Are we all set for this weekend?

Yeah.

I made the reservations and check-in is at three tomorrow.

Okay. So, I guess I'll see you tonight.

Sure! I've got to get dressed and keep moving.

Okay.

Ughh.

I-

I wanted you-

to tell you-

The angles-

The space in that shower-

just gets smaller and smaller.

Doesn't it?

Where the hell have you been?

Excuse me?

You heard me.

Where have you been, Mark?

With Pat?

How di--

You went through my phone.

When?

That doesn't matter.

You invaded my privacy, so yes, it does matter.

Who is he, Mark?

Someone from work? A police officer?

Who is he?

She-

is my wife.

Patricia.

What?

I'm married.

And we have a kid.

A little boy.

They visit me once a week and she stays at a hotel

a few towns over.

'Kay?

You satisfied? Fuck, Isaac. Why'd you go through my phone?

W-w-what are you doing?

I was going to tell you.

I'm moving back. I'm transferring to Virginia.

Today was my last day.

What about our trip?

I wasn't going to start for another two weeks.

But I think we both know that's not going to happen now.

Isaac.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry you had to find out this way.

You weren't going to--

I was going to transfer. Okay? I was going to transfer

and I was going to let that be that.

I can't live two lives anymore, Isaac.

It's exhausting.

And I love them.

You told me you loved me.

No, I didn't.

I choose my words very carefully and I never told you what we had

here would be permanent.

I'm sorry.

Have you heard anything from him?

No.

What about calling him?

It's been about a week.

I-

I found something in his room.

I don't want to get involved.

The other night. What happened with dad.

Sorry. With him.

Is that why you're--

No. That's not how it works.

One has nothing to do with the other.

Do you understand?

Yeah.

I'm here for you if you need anything.

I know.

I just, just, I can't.

I miss him so much.

¶ LIGHTS FLASH IN AN INSTANT ¶

¶ AND WHEN WE SEE THE SUN RISE, EVERYONE IS MISSING ¶

¶ WE ONLY GOT ONE NIGHT BEFORE IT'S OVER ¶

¶ AND EVERYBODY'S GONE ¶

¶ WE'LL WAIT TO THE LAST SONG ¶

¶ BUT BEFORE WE GO, I WANNA HAVE DRINKS ALL NIGHT ¶

¶ AND BEFORE WE GO ¶ - Hey there!

Hi.

I'm just, uh, drinking.

Funny. Me, too, sweetheart.

Shae.

Isaac.

¶ SO GIRL IF YOUR'E READY ¶

¶ SO GET ON THE FLOOR ¶

¶ AND WE CAN DANCE LIKE IT'S THE LAST NIGHT, ALL NIGHT ¶

You look new.

I do? What gives it away?

You still have that look about you.

You came from a place where this,

wasn't encouraged.

Most of us did.

Some people come here to forget those times. Those moments.

But people also come here

to be proud of who they are.

Proud to be who they really are. On the inside.

You don't have to feel shame by looking at other man's body.

Or whatever it is that's giving you that pain

I see behind those eyes.

Have you fallen in love, yet?

And you've been hurt, I take it.

Just don't get too caught up in your first gay love, Isaac.

And don't you shy away from that word either.

You own it, baby!

I'm buying his.

You should embrace who you are.

Don't hide it.

That's what love's all about.

¶ DRESSED IN COSTUMES THAT YOU PLAY ¶

¶ JUST A CAST TO MAKE YOU SHINE ¶

Yo, what the fuck, bro'?

So, James. How much does a street artist pull in?

I'm a hip-hop lyricist.

And why are you even here, Miss I once did it at thirty thousand

feet in a lavatory?

His name is Ant.

He and Faith are my guests. Thought you would appreciate the

- support for your new album. - Hmph.

Yo, save some pepperoni for me.

Fucking kid's eating himself to death.

Yo, yo-you got a problem?

You're my problem. I'm sick and tired of your stupid

fucking comments.

I'm tired of you moping around here because Mark

broke your damn heart. Get over yourself, man.

Go fuck another dude, if that's what does it.

You better shut your mouth, bitch.

Hmph.

Spoken like a true fag.

And what you gonna do? Boy?

Go all Krystle Carrington on my ass? Bitch slap me lik--

- What the fuck?

He's got a family.

Mark's got a fucking wife and kid.

That's-

I'm sorry, Isaac.

What a fucking asshole.

You're a shitty friend, James.

You want to know where my lips have been, Jimbo?

Fucking Dynasty Psycho.

- Fuck. - Yo, this is some weird shit.

- Really. Just saying. - Go and push the button, man.

I'm in Richmond. We need to talk.

You can come here or I will go there. The choice is yours.

One-three-three-six. West Providence Road.

Richmond, Virginia. Two-three-two-three-six.

I got it from a piece of mail.

You left in a hurry, Mark.

¶ Esto que siento por ti es-- ¶

Short Pump.

The Mexican restaurant on Broad Street.

¶ QUE SIENTES TU POR MI? ¶

Why are you here?

I'm here because I need you.

- I told you that we were over. - I need you to be honest.

Isaac.

I love my wife. We had something special.

I'm not going to pretend that it wasn't.

But I love Patricia and I love my kid more and I'm not going to

have my kid damaged by this, this mess.

- What mess? - This.

Are you talking about being gay?

No.

Do you really want to be a gay man living in a straight world?

- That is not your problem. - But that's what it is.

Your marriage is not out of convenience, is it?

Patricia doesn't know, does she?

You should go back to California.

You can find somebody else there.

You have your whole life ahead of you.

What about Patricia?

What about her?

If you can't be honest, Mark. I will.

Are you fucking nuts?

Is this how you show your love for me?

With threats?

I am not on trial here, Isaac.

You stay away from me an you stay away from my family.

Can't have me unraveling some-

perfect little lie you have going.

I am not going to abandon my responsibilities because you

have abandonment issues.

I wish w--

I can't have- what I want to have with you.

I can't.

I can't.

¶ ENTRAS EN MI CORAZON ¶

¶ ESTOY ENAMORADO DE TI ¶

Going kind of fast, Mark.

Just-

Be quiet.

Do you know this guy, Mark?

Slow down! You're scaring me!

Shut up!

Isaac!

Uh, hey, you okay?

Hi, yes, uh, I have an emergency. It's a, a car crash.

Real bad. Um. I-I'm on mi-mile marker three.

Uh, uh, uh, o-one of the cars just left the scene.

I, uh, I don't see a license plate. Ehh-

No, I, I don't know make and model. I'm sorry. I--

Hey, there, there, there's a kid here. You gotta come quick.

Well,

He must have recognized something special in you.

And he had no other family.

Neither did she.

It was all right there in his will.

And the courts agreed.

It's really tragic what happened. Both parents.

We like to call him our little miracle.

That he is, Annie.

Well, all I need for you to do-

is to sign right here and legally,

- he's all yours. - Umm!

You'll be a great father.

Yes I will.

- Auntie Em! - Yay!

- I missed you! - Hi, sweetheart.

- Hi, sis! - Hey!

Thanks, thanks for watching him again.

I promise I won't be later than seven.

Okay. If you are any second late, he's mine, okay?

And you're going to have to get one of those Habeas

Corpse thingies.

- Okay. Here. Grab this. - Corpse, what?

- And this. Alright. - Okay, culprit!

- Okay. - Here he comes!

You're vewy vewy cute!

Hey, buddy! Daddy's got this meeting with a new client.

But I will be back soon! I love you!

- I love you too, daddy! - Aww! Here you go, sis.

- I'm gonna see-- - Mine. Mine. Mine. Mine. Mine.

Mine. Muah!

Bye, Mom. See you soon. Yes.

Let's go, let's go, let's go.

Let's go see Hot Wheels!

We're going to get you some new Hot Wheels.

- Hot Wheels! - Hot Wheels--
