It's been weeks.

It's become obvious that this is just not for you.

And I'm not getting what I want either.

What do you want?

What do you think I want?

My lovin's.

Yeah, your lovin's.

I tried to have sex with you last time, but you ran away.

Apparently I can't handle my street psychedelics.

I just thought it was gonna make you horny.

I'm always horny for you.

You didn't even have to try.

Tab, if being in a relationship with me felt normal to you,

we'd have done it by now.

I like you.

I really do.

I think you're a special guy.

But I don't wanna turn you into something that you're not.

I just need some time.

What you need

is a new plan.

Drop to the right.

Do you wanna hang out after this?

Where?

My place.

I don't think so.

So, that was a one time thing?

It was Grindr.

But we know each other.

And I wanted to get with you before I saw you on Grindr.

We have months of classes together.

Why complicate things?

Well, I thought it was pretty simple.

You're the one who's making things complicated.

You're out of step with the time.

Yeah, I guess I am.

- Hi. - What's the matter?

Daddy dumped me.

Where does it hurt, baby?

Nowhere.

Well, that's probably why he dumped you.

Sugar flows both ways.

Yeah, I know.

I'm not lending you rent.

I don't need more money.

I just needed more time.

Tab, it's not for everyone.

There's no shame in liking girls.

I like Benny too.

What are you saying?

Like, like him?

Like him?

Yeah, kinda.

You're full of surprises.

I liked hanging out with him.

Like talking about stuff and legal precedents and music.

All the songs that I like,

they're already songs when he was young.

Just but no rap.

Well maybe you could be friends.

You think like, he'd hang out with me like, for free?

You can ask.

Oh, look at you.

I'm interested.

- Is that a daddy? - Yup.

When do you want to?

Wait, did it not work out with number two?

Oh, I'm still gonna see Gus for now,

but we don't have much in common, so I'm still looking.

Tonight, yes.

Seven.

Okay, eight.

So you're juggling daddies.

Actually, Mickey didn't pay his phone bill

so he is using my phone

and I just made him a date with a sexy Greek.

- Really? - Sexy to me.

Well, he looks Greek.

Huh.

Mickey.

What?

Wakey, wakey.

Early bird gets the worm.

I don't want your worm.

It's not my worm.

Have your shower and get dressed.

You can thank me.

I made you a date with a daddy.

Chop chop.

That's a little too Dickensian orphan.

We want him to think you're financially disadvantaged

but not living in a refrigerator box.

What do you know about this guy?

He earns 200,000 a year.

Doing what?

That's a little vague

but a good conversation starter on your date.

Does it say anything specific?

Is he married, traveling, anything I need to know?

Why not just wear a garbage bag?

It says his favorite song

is "Do That To Me One More Time."

Am I supposed to know that one?

I take it at face value.

How do I know this guy's not like a serial killer?

Check the freezer as soon as you get there.

He's burly and seems butch.

I'd have taken him for myself, but he wants a top.

So he's a bottom.

That's something specific

That is not specific.

He didn't say power bottom

or hungry bottom or dirty bottom or toothy bottom-

Stop.

If he doesn't fall for you instantly,

then he's a stringy bottom.

Oh god, man.

So, what can I get for you?

Soda water.

This is really weird, right?

A little bit, yeah.

You're a really handsome guy.

Thanks.

You too.

I wasn't bad like when I was your age.

So what are you looking for?

Like, in an arrangement?

Something uncomplicated.

You can be uncomplicated, can't you?

I guess so.

Good.

Let's just hang out, talk for a bit.

I don't need your whole lot of biography

or anything like that.

We can talk about news, history, sports, arts,

whatever you want.

Let's just see how we get along.

- Yeah. - Yeah.

In fact, let's get a little something to eat.

Just enough to stay in a good mood.

Not enough to get tired, bloated.

Sounds like a plan.

Excellent.

When my father found out I was having sex with a maitre de,

he told me to get out

never come back and then I wouldn't inherit a thing.

So I told him I'd tell my mother

he was screwing the hostess.

The widow two doors up, my third grade teacher,

and two other women that I knew about at the time.

And then I'd still inherit half of everything he owned

after my mother divorced him.

So he looked at me and he went,

"You're getting a promotion."

Eventually, I did inherit everything.

Three restaurants and a boat.

I gave half of it to my sister, which I regret now.

I have to deal with her idiot of a husband.

I should've just given her half the money

to do with as she wanted.

Hindsight's 20-20.

What about you?

Well, I never met my dad.

So not a lot of good dad anecdotes.

Not your dad, you.

You have any goals?

Did you study?

What you wanna do?

School wasn't really for me, you know.

I could never really make it to class.

Ah, too much partying.

Basically, yeah.

I learn better on my own.

I like to read.

So what do you wanna do with your life?

I have no idea.

- Party and read? - Yeah.

Yeah, that sounds awesome.

Wouldn't pay the bills though.

Wouldn't really pay for the cush

or the books for that matter.

Well, let's see.

Maybe we can pay to read and dream about it,

for a little while at least.

Are you gay?

I don't think so.

Straight?

That's so passe.

I'm too young to be straight.

Yeah, fair enough.

Well, anything else you wanna know about me?

I guess it's about time.

We should make a decision.

What do you think?

Should we give this a try?

- Mommy. - Hey, bud.

I brought laundry.

Stir this a minute.

So, Bud, did you get a new job?

Not no.

Odds and ends, bits.

I was just checking your bank account balance

the other day and noticed a few sizable deposits.

Round figures.

$300, three times.

Why are you checking on me?

Just making sure you don't starve.

I've checked your bank account balance every month

since you were seven.

Well, at a certain point, you stop.

Like, you don't walk me to school anymore

or wipe my butt or-

Do your laundry?

Does she do your laundry?

Thought so.

Where's this money coming from?

Are you selling drugs?

What? No.

Are you selling your ass?

You are.

It's not like the way you're saying it.

Oh my God.

Is this how I raised you?

I don't know how to answer that.

It's a really bad idea, Bud.

You're not related to me.

Larry is part of this family.

Your family, not mine.

This stops now.

It's none of your business.

I'm not supporting this.

So, you're on your own.

Oh, and the second installment of tuition's due next week.

So good luck with that.

You're cutting me off?

How is that supposed to help?

When you stop whoring, then you can come see me.

I'll always be a whore in your eyes.

Bud.

He hasn't had a job in like, a year.

So what's he do for you that you pay for his room

and board and entertainment?

Hmm?

So, I guess you did raise me this way.

Yes.

Yes.

♪ I love you

Bud. Baby,

I wanna explain the difference between my marriage

and what you're doing.

♪ I love you

Yes, I do a lot for Larry,

and I pay for things for now.

The difference is, I love him.

♪ I love this night

Driving.

Well, if I drink the whole bottle by myself,

I'm gonna get pretty silly.

You don't have to drink the whole bottle, Tab.

What do you mean?

Hey, Tab!

Sarah.

'Sup?

'Sup, girls?

Is Mickey around or?

Nah.

Bud here or you're just hanging out with your friend?

Just hanging out and bumped into my old teacher.

Oh, cool.

Well, have fun catching up.

Can you tell Mickey he can pick up my shift on Saturday?

I tried his phone but...

He didn't pay the bill.

I figured.

All right, I'll see you later.

- See ya. - Bye.

You mad at me?

Why would I be?

I don't know.

You're ashamed to be seen with me.

I'm not.

You said it was your teacher.

Well, you are.

Aren't you?

I didn't want her telling people.

Does anybody know about me?

My roommates.

Do they know my name or where I live?

No.

Well, does anyone know about me?

No one at all.

And if we were out and saw someone from your work,

like a judge or something,

wouldn't you make up a story?

Yeah, I would.

Sorry.
