Original subtitles

You fuckin' dyke!

You ready to see how trash tastes, Lesbo?

How's that trash taste?

Yeah, you just haven't had the right dick yet, let's go.

Man.

A name? Do you want to give me a name?

Do you want to tell me, was it outside of school?

Was it halfway home?

Anything? Do I got to notify them?

Do I got to call the cops?

Did you recognize the person?

Sam, you're 18.

And truth be told, life's going to get harder.

And situations like this, you need to speak up.

You need to say something. You can't be quiet. You got physically assaulted.

And this is worse than any name calling because somebody laid a hand on you.

Let's make you feel better.

All right, can we at least discuss what are we gonna tell your mom?

Because she know exactly what's gonna happen.

She's gonna start accusing me of not calling the police fast enough.

We're gonna have to get you out of school.

We might have to move.

She's gonna unload all of this nonsense.

instead of help the situation because that's what she does. You know she does

that.

Can I see if the swelling went down?

Betty Flanders, pressing her heels rather deeper into the sand. There was

nothing but for it to leave.

Slowly lying from the corner, her gold nib held the weight of the job at full

stop. But there, her hands stuck, her eyes fixed, and tears flowing through

them. Betty's eyes were bigger.

The entire day turned.

The light got wobbly.

And she had the illusion that the mass of Mr. Conner's moving yacht was bending

like a black candle in the sun.

She went quickly.

After those were off the pins, she went again.

The map was straight, and the waves were regular.

The lighthouse looked upright, but the block had spread.

Nothing occurred but the lead, she then.

Well, if Jacob doesn't want to play, the shadow of Martha, her eldest son, fell

across an oasis, and looked blue in the sand, and she felt chilly.

It was the third of September already.

If Jacob doesn't want to play, what for is what?

The bones of the cutlets were decorated with pink frills, and yesterday he had

gnawed ham from the bone.

Opposite him were hazy, semi-transparent shapes of yellow and blue.

Behind them, again, was the gray-green garden, and among the pear-shaped leaves

of the Escalonia, fishing boats seemed caught and suspended.

The door opened and shut. Nothing settled, or stayed unbroken.

Like oars rowing hastily in the dusk.

Though the ship had sailed from one corner of the window frame to the other,

and a light marked the end of the pier.

Um, what happened to your eye?

Um... I got into a fight.

What? With who?

There was this kid, um, he was...

being bullied and I just don't like to be

a bystander and stuff like that so I stopped it.

Really?

That's actually kind of cool.

I guess I just can't stand assholes like that.

Me either.

You ought to be ashamed, all of you.

Mr. Clutterbuck, you ought to be ashamed.

She raised her voice, for Mr. Clutterbuck was deaf.

Why weren't you at my party?

Um, I wasn't invited.

What? Everyone was invited.

I guess you're right.

Um, I guess I see the whole, like, turning 18 thing

to be a bit... overrated, considering we can't even buy alcohol or anything.

Oh, I guess usually, yeah. But I stole my sister's ID and got alcohol for

everyone. I mean, Jessie actually had to be taken to the hospital. She almost had

to get her stomach pumped. She was so drunk.

Wow. That sounds like a rager.

Yeah.

I'm really sad you weren't there.

I am too.

I will have to come to the next one, huh?

I hope so.

We are ashamed, said a girl, but the old man with the beard went on eating plum

tart.

Mrs. Durant laughed and leaned back in her chair as if indulging him.

I'm tired.

I'm going to take a nap.

Do you want to take one too?

Okay.

Awesome.

Well, aren't you going to get more comfortable?

Okay.

What's wrong?

Nothing.

Okay, so what are you doing?

Come on.

It's like a nap.

We'll get back to this afterwards.

Come on!

It's not that big of a deal is it?

Link?

Yeah?

Don't you want to go downstairs and see if you can eat dinner here?

Okay.

Let's go.

Fuckin' dyke!

So did you hear about what happened with Jason and I?

No.

What? Everybody heard about it.

It was between third and fourth period yesterday.

He just grabbed my hand and pulled me into the custodial room and started

making out with me and like picked me up and he was just so strong just like I

knew he was.

Every time I'd see him out on the football field, I always thought of him

so much.

I'm sorry about the TV dinners.

It's just been... This new broker certificate is just crazy hard.

I feel like all I've been doing is studying lately.

But of course I make time for my baby.

So... How's school been?

I mean, it's October.

Are you liking your classes?

It's been alright.

Senior year, how's it going with colleges, right? You're applying to

colleges?

Yeah, I've sent in a few applications.

I just don't really know where I want to go yet.

Thinking about Dawson?

Yeah, I sent an application there.

I just figured by the time I get some responses, I'll know where I want to go.

I'll accept your dad. I'm sure he'll make you go to Iran.

My dad's not going to make me do anything.

Is it okay, sweetie?

You're not eating.

This used to be your favorite, I thought.

I just don't really care for TV dinners anymore, Mom.

Well, I wish I could be like your dad and have the time to make home-cooked

food. I have to get out there and make something for myself and start over

fresh. I don't think you understand how hard that is.

Just, I mean, there's got to be something in there.

If you want, I can make you a sandwich.

So homecoming coming up soon?

Anybody special?

Are you thinking about going?

Mom, can we just finish dinner? I don't really want to talk about that.

Once upon a time When worlds collided

You decided

That you'd be mine

Once upon a time

When worlds collided

You decided

JC, what's up?

I really do not want to go to that party.

I know, but... Okay, okay.

Yeah, I'll be ready in a bit.

Okay, I'll see you then.

Bye.

So who are you here with?

I came with a couple of friends.

Yeah? What are you doing right now?

Fascinating. Oh, yeah. It makes sense.

Hey, how are you?

Okay, have fun.

Do it!

Flip! Oh, you see?

My shuffle's ass!

Hey, that's my girl!

Oh my god, you guys see this? This sucks so bad.

What's wrong?

I just wanted to know how long you wanted to be here tonight.

Hopefully all night if you know what I mean.

Come on, loosen up.

You know what you need? You need a drink.

You need a drink.

You stay with me. I'll be right

back. Don't

waste the time just to look at it back Live your life to the fullest, be an

empty as well I hope you want me more And all I need is more

Sam, come here.

Come here, Sam.

What's up?

Come here, come here. She's talking to you.

You like me, right?

Yeah, we're friends.

I like you too.

We're cool.

Come here, come here.

What? Come here.

You see that chick over there?

Yeah. What do you think of her?

She's cute, Matt.

Yeah, but like, are you, do you think she's hot?

I don't, I don't know what you want me to say.

What do you think of her friend?

They're, they're both cute, Matt.

I think her friend's really into it. I think, I think that's good.

You, you go do that. I'm gonna.

No, no, no, come here, come here. I just want to talk to you. I just want to ask

this.

What do you want to ask?

I just want to know.

I'm not being rude. I don't want to be rude.

I just want to understand, alright?

How do you know that you're gay?

How do you know that you're straight?

I was born a normal guy.

And I was born a normal girl.

It's just how I am, you know?

Yeah, but how do you know if you haven't even tried? You haven't tried, right?

I don't really want to know. I don't know.

That doesn't make sense, then.

Like, you have no...

No attraction.

You don't feel... You're not attracted to me?

You're not attracted to this? I'm not attracted to you, Matt.

Okay, I'm gonna... Sam!

Go. Go.

Hey.

And we'll have a private room.

We're going to have some fun.

You know?

You guys are having fun, right?

Yeah. What do you want?

I don't know. I think it would be hot if you guys made out.

You want us to make out?

Yeah, what's the big deal?

That's cool.

You're just gonna watch us? You're just gonna watch us kiss? Look, we're all

adults, right? You're 18. You just turned 18.

Yeah, it's this party.

Yeah. This whole party.

It's time for a birthday makeout. That's what I'm saying.

Birthday makeout. Yeah.

Okay.

Keep it cool and sexy.

You're just going to sit here and watch us make out. Yeah, I mean, well, I would

like to join, too, eventually, but, like, we'll get there.

What else do you do?

You know, let's just, like, let's get a little more comfortable.

Let's get on the bed.

Let's chill, yeah.

Oh, I like this. I like the crawling.

It's hot.

You're just going to sit right there and watch us make out?

Yeah, I mean, that's cool.

What do we get out of it? What is this for?

It's a life experience.

Girls deserve to make out with other girls at least one point. I guess you

said so.

Okay. Okay.

We're going to do it.

Do it.

Okay, we're going to do it.

Okay, are you ready?

Oh, I'm so ready.

Okay. Okay, fine.

I have to get myself ready. Okay. Yeah, it's cool.

Just do it.

Okay.

Oh, my God. This is so hot. We kissed one time and it's that hot.

You should keep it up. You guys were made to kiss each other.

Okay.

Good morning.

Let's talk about the bed.

Let's get off the bed.

Oh my god, he's totally gone.

I think he's gone. He's totally passed the fuck out. He's gone.

Oh my god.

Thank you.

I'm sorry.

Hahaha.

watching us. Oh my god, of course she is.

Why? Would you like to join?

No, I'm giving her a real show.

She wants to join. Come on. Come join us. It'll be fun.

If you don't want to join us, we'll just let you watch. She's totally weak.

She's trying to act like she's sleeping. She's totally up.

Whatever, we'll just put on a show for you.

You can still join!

Oh, my God. She's still watching. I can see her opening her eyes every once in a

while.

You sure you don't want to join? It's not too late.

It feels so good.

Oh, my God.

Oh, my God. Yes.

It's my sister, and she knows the bass player for the opening band and might be

able to give us a piece.

That's awesome. Alright, I'll call you after school. Yes, come.

Bye.

Excuse me. Oh, sorry.

What's up?

I got another one for you.

I wanna be Santa.

It's from Grandma.

Alright, well, let's see it.

You have to think about your mother, and then I'll have to get you the perfect

gift.

Can I see it?

You'll never have to wear it.

But we do gotta call her later.

And you gotta give a sincere thank you and I love it.

Promise?

You know, it'd really be cool if we actually did it at Meg's house. She's

got that big pool.

You know, we can just invite all our friends, have a lot of drinks, just get

super crazy.

You know what I mean?

Or if push comes to shove, we can just go to a park and just get shit-faced

there. I really like the idea of that. It sounds great. But Nicole sort

of invited me to this party that one of her friends is throwing. So I was

thinking of spending...

Can I ask you something? Like, why are you hanging out with her?

She's an absolute fake. There's nothing about her that I buy.

She's really not that bad.

I mean, once you get to know her, she's a pretty cool chick.

Right. I would even say that she's not even remotely fake.

Whatever.

I am so excited for tonight.

Here. I don't need it. I'm good. Oh, okay. Tough girl.

Thank you.

You know, I mean, I'm sure once he hears that, like, I'm having a good time

tonight that he won't care. It's not a big deal. Exactly. I mean, he is your

friend, right? He's my best friend.

Then he should want you to have fun.

Exactly.

Exactly.

Come on. Take another.

Oh, I think I've had enough.

Just a little one.

So is Rachel going to be there tonight?

I completely forgot to ask her.

It's whatever. It's just Rachel.

It's just Rachel.

Wait. What? Did you mean to match your lipstick with your jacket? Because it

looks great.

It looks awesome.

It matches yours too.

I didn't realize we were matching.

I think it looks good.

What was that?

What do you mean?

That was disgusting.

I knew it. You are gay.

You're a lesbian.

I...

You were supposed to be my friend.

Oh my god.

I am your friend.

Yeah, and clearly you think a lot more.

Get out of my house. I didn't mean to. Get out of my house. I didn't mean to.

Okay, sure.

And you just did it. That was disgusting.

I missed.

I didn't. You missed what?

Get out of my house. How could you? You're supposed to be my best friend.

I'm sorry. I didn't mean to. Get out.

There's the door.

Okay. I didn't mean to. Uh-huh.

And then, I saw that they've already released the volunteer list for the

spring formals, so... Good.

So,

I'm sure we can do a better disaster than the last year. I want volunteer.

It's definitely going to look way better.

It's going to make it look good.

I fly for the rave. You want to come?

Thank you. No problem. Fly for the event. Want to come?

You? No.

Fly for the event.

Fly for the event.

Oh, thanks.

Fly for the event tonight.

Thanks.

We're going to this.

Look. Are you kidding?

Yeah. No, come on. What do you mean no? You always say no. Give me a reason why

you can't do this.

Could you honestly, like, see me at a rave? Like, that's not, that's not me. I

could totally see you at a rave because you're going to be with me. Would I ever

let you have a bad time?

No. Exactly. So you're coming with me.

Come on. Fine.

Is your name Mark?

Yeah.

I love your long hair, Mark.

Thanks.

Hey, you're really cute.

So are you.

Thank you.

Why don't we go somewhere quiet?

Let's go.

Come in here.

It's fine, nobody ever comes in here.

So Mark, how old are you?

I'm 18.

Oh, I like young guys.

just like the guy from that Dazed movie.

Like exactly the same.

So how old are you?

I'm 20.

Yeah, and I've been with an older woman.

Yeah.

Good guy, he likes it.

What are you gonna do to me, mom?

You look gorgeous.

and experience as you look.

Is this how you get your car card?

Going down, girls.

Oh, yes.

Keep going just like that.

I want you to make me cum and I want to suck your cock and make you cum.

Yes, yes, yes.

I'm with you. I don't want to feel how hard I hurt you.

I just don't think this is a good idea. What's the matter? Are you scared?

I'm not scared.

Just what if somebody comes in and just...

This is the ladies room.

I don't know what this is but I would stay the fuck away from her. Jeez.

Is there a problem?

Did she think you were a guy?

I don't want to talk about it.

Were you trying to be a guy?

It's okay.

We've all been there.

I mean, the first couple girls I really liked were straight.

And it was great for like the first four months.

And then they found their boyfriends.

Moral of that story is straight girls will always end in heartbreak.

Every time.

You don't need them, you know?

You're a really cute girl.

Which is not what you wanted to hear.

But it's true.

And that's okay.

I'm Meg.

Sam. It was wonderful to meet you, Sam.

Actually, do you wanna come and hang out with my friends?

We're in a little group in the back.

Trust me, you're not even gonna see this girl. It's so packed out there.

Hey, Sam.

What?

Hey, stranger.

Hey. What are you doing down here?

I'm just walking home from school.

Well, get in. I'll give you a ride.

I'm not too far. It's fine. I don't mind. Get in.

How have you been? I've tried to call a few times.

Um, yeah. Sorry, I don't have my own line. My dad doesn't really tell me when

I get calls.

But I've been okay.

Still chasing those girls around?

I don't really want to talk about that.

It's all good.

Don't even worry about it. High school girls are just so fickle. I mean, wait

till you get to college. That's where you get to meet the amazing ones.

How old are you?

21.

Okay.

So, I was wondering, you're not doing anything tonight, are you?

Um, no, I'm not expected anywhere.

Well, I was just wondering if maybe you wanted to come over and hang out at my

place for a little bit. It's not far from here, and I mean, I can drive you

home afterwards.

Um, yeah, sure, that sounds nice.

Awesome.

You can have the seat if you want. Thanks.

Take care.

Yeah, so my professor wouldn't even take the creative writing assignment.

It was ridiculous.

He said he just had a difference of opinion with the author that wrote it.

Do you want a soda?

I'm okay.

Do you want some water?

Here I was, thinking professors were supposed to be non-biased, I suppose.

Aggravating.

Okay.

I know that's none of my business.

But something is obviously up.

You don't have to tell me everything or anything, but...

Nothing new, I guess we're just the same old.

You still bummed out about the girl from the rave?

No, I mean, that just came and went, so it's no big deal.

Is there someone new?

I guess, um, well, not anymore.

She asked me to do a project with her. We worked on the assignment.

Eventually, she told me she wanted to take a nap. I didn't know if this was

just a normal thing that girls do together. She started to touch herself.

I don't know. Maybe she wanted me to do the same thing, so I did. Then she had

me go down on her. I can't even tell you how many times we've done this. She

kissed me, and then when I kissed her back,

freaked out, started screaming at me, told me that I was a lesbian and that I

was disgusting.

I hate to tell you this, but she didn't like you.

And it doesn't sound like she likes herself very much either.

So, have you ever really had sex?

We did have sex.

No, that... I mean... Like, real sex.

Like... I

mean, have you ever... Have you ever seen

lesbians have sex?

I've seen...

Girls make out at parties.

How about, have you ever seen the movie The Hunger?

No.

Seriously? Every lesbian has seen The Hunger.

Um, okay, books. What about, have you read Oranges Aren't the Only Fruit?

I've never heard of it.

Do you have any cultural reference points?

know what that means, really.

Okay.

Okay.

Allow me to give you a crash course in lesbianism, because I can't let you walk

out the house that way.

Come here.

Come here. Come here. Come here.

Okay.

How do you pick up a woman?

Okay, okay, okay. Stand up real quick.

Stand up.

Okay, imagine you're out walking.

You know, maybe through the mall. And you see this beautiful woman.

What would you do?

Probably nothing.

Okay, pretend I'm the girl.

Walk up and try to woo me.

I'm Sam.

Do you live around here?

Okay, okay.

Maybe... Okay, that's maybe a bad idea.

I'll tell you what.

Tell me something about me that you notice, that you like, that's pretty.

That's kind of weird.

We're friends, so I don't know. It's just hypothetical. I know we're friends.

It's fine.

Just something.

My eyes, my nose, my lips. What do you notice?

You have nice lips.

Okay, that's a bad idea. Sit.

Sit.

Okay.

How about this? We'll try this.

Kiss me.

Art.

Look, I know we're friends.

It's fine.

I just want to see how you kiss.

Okay.

Why don't we try a little tongue? Have you ever tried that?

Just give it a try.

Oh, okay, okay, okay.

Not a fish.

So we're gonna tease.

You're gonna take your tongue and you wanna tease the lips. Come here, I'll

show you.

How was that?

It was a lot better than the first time.

You look a little warm. Why don't you take this off?

Get a little more cozy.

So,

have

you ever touched another woman's...

Breasts. No.

Well, you're about to.

Don't you feel them? Through my shirt.

Like... Just... Explore.

There you go.

Just take it.

don't be afraid of it is is there like a

specific way that i should be doing it or

then

you

can feel my nipples through my shirt right there

you can rub them with your thumbs like this you can grab them between your

fingers does that feel good?

you just alternate and you just play with them

so I just do different things?

Does it feel good?

It does.

You wanna see him without the shirt?

Come.

I'll show you how to do something.

I want you to kiss up my stomach.

All the way to my breasts.

You can use your tongue to tease as well.

Just take it and roll your tongue around the nipple.

Don't be afraid, you can use your teeth a little, nibble at it.

You're a quick learner.

Now let me take my pants off.

Okay.

Come here.

I'm sure you don't know your parts of your vagina.

And that's okay.

Everyone's got to start somewhere.

So, you see right there?

That spot?

Yeah. That's where your clit is.

Okay, um, what?

Right there. So that's where a lot of your pleasure comes from.

So, you want to try?

Sure. Stick it here.

So should I do it up and down or

side to side?

You can do a little circular motion

And then you can always get your finger wet

It'll

be nice and slick See

how it's different?

the way down.

Feel the opening.

You

can alternate

between going all the way down and then focusing on the glutes.

You can change the speed up and go a little faster.

You don't want to go too fast.

You know the DJ.

is the opening

Is that okay?

If you want you can stick another finger in Sure You

can get your fingers wetter if you want

I think you've got fingering down.

I think you need to get out of somewhere close, though.

Should I... Come on. Here. Stand up. I'll help you.

Now, can you try something new?

Let's see what you know.

I want you to lick.

Okay.

Let me see what you did before.

Okay?

I can show you.

Let me see what you know.

okay okay so different angle yeah you want to come come right this way okay

yeah there you go and now when you lick

you don't just have to lick the clip and start from down here and drag your

tongue all the way up

You'll be able to find your clue with the tongue And

you just can tease it with your tongue

It's

a lot like fingering

put a little more pressure on the glute

You can play with the tip.

I was worried it was hurting.

You were amazing.

Have you ever used these before?

Is it supposed to be a little tingly?

It's part of the fun.

You enjoying it?

It's something.

There's one more thing I want to show you.

Any good?

You are amazing.

My only recommendation would be that you trim up a little.

But other than that... Oh, and just in case you need a little

culture reference, make sure you give it back, though. It's my only

copy.

Thanks.

I should get to the sauce.

I'm going to do your right hair right now.

Forget about the dinner.

What if I ruin it?

You can wait. You can just do it later.

Okay? Okay.

I feel so sorry.

I'm so soft

Okay.

Please.

I told her I would if you didn't totally ruin my dress last year.

You need to stop giving her stuff to borrow.

Yeah, I was thinking like kitty boo boo fuck.

Does anyone have a smoke?

My mom threw mine out.

I've got one.

Thank you.

Thanks

again.

Yeah.

Excuse me, what did you say?

What kind of music do you like?

I'm really into Britpop.

Have you heard any bands?

No.

Oh my god, what is there?

There's Beautiful Fondue, Absolute Friendship.

There's Temple of the Rising Khakis.

Let's see, there's Emotional Kittens.

There's Duck Pond. They're really not as good as Duck Pool.

They're actually kind of a rip-off, but have you heard of them? I've heard of

Duck Pond, but I don't think I've heard their music.

They're so good. They're kind of like a rip-off Emotional Attorneys, but I still

love them anyways.

I went and saw them in this...

like, underground pub in Quebec last year because, like, they'll actually let

you in when you're 18, so I didn't even have to take my sister's ID this time.

That's really cool.

Awesome. Yeah, so definitely I would recommend any of those. You're going to

love them.

Cool. I'll definitely check them out. Thank you. Sweet.

Well, I'm going to head out, guys. I'll see you tomorrow. I'll see you. Bye.

Hey,

wait up.

Where are you headed?

I usually walk through the wash on my way home from school. So do I. Do you

mind if I join you?

No, not at all. Cool.

My name's Teresa, by the way.

Nice to meet you.

The movie Breathless by Godard.

The lighting, the framing, everything in that movie is so beautiful. I

go back to it.

So many times, but I would definitely recommend that one There's actually a

good Rep theater downtown that they play those kinds of movies every weekend.

Oh, that's that's awesome I'm assuming you go there quite often Yeah, I mean

every Saturday if I can get the time off, you know from school and everything

else Well, what are you doing this weekend?

Nothing, I don't believe.

Would you like to go see one of those films with me?

Yeah, that'd be cool.

That's awesome. Okay, cool.

I could probably just tell you the entire thing, like I was telling a

story, but I don't want to give it away, but you're going to love it.

Seriously.

I think I've seen it, like... three or four times already.

It is the best.

I'm really excited to see it.

Me too.

See, I love that you have an appreciation for good movies, too.

Like, it's so rare. You'd be so surprised.

Okay, well, without giving anything away, like the gist of the movie,

basically, this guy.

he gets this gig as an entertainment journalist.

So big opportunity for him, huge. Like one of those can't screw this up things.

So he goes and he gets paired up with this model and this actress, gorgeous.

I've never seen Winona as more beautiful than she looked in this movie.

And Leo, oh my God, amazing.

But so yeah, when he comes into their world, he gets like, entangled in like

the web of their lives pretty much like god i can't see anymore because i don't

want to give it away but you're going to love it when it comes out on tape i'm

definitely getting it do you like this place yeah it's really killer i've never

seen anything like this it's so chill like anyone who's anyone is always here

it's actually pretty tame for a friday but Any other weekend night, it gets so

crazy. Like, okay, last summer, you know,

Katie Evans, older sister, she was in that corner and after one

too many cocktails, she like totally just like took her shirt off. No, bro.

full tits out. It was crazy.

I was there and I was like, what is this? It was like spring break or

something. It was insane.

And that's just like an example.

We're going to have to come here a lot more often.

I would absolutely love that. I would even love to take you to these films

more often if you were my girlfriend or something.

Oh. Um, I, uh, thought, um,

I, I'm sorry if I, if I gave the wrong impression or anything. I, um,

I'm not, like, into girls.

I like you a lot, a lot, a lot. I just don't, like, like,

like you.

I don't have any, like, problems with, like, gay people or anything. One of my

really good friends is gay and, like, I've known for years.

God, I'm so sorry.

I still want to hang out with you, like, this summer and

everything else. And I still want to go see this movie. And I know you're going

to have a great time.

Seriously.

We can get some snacks from here.

Maybe.

more coffee, and then sneak it into the theater, get some snacks, and I'll get

going.

I told

you, Kenneth's character is unbelievable.

I don't think anyone could have done the role like that.

Hey, are you gonna walk me home or what?

What? Do you not want to go in?

It's... It's just... It's the front door and...

Okay.

To get you in, what if I took you through the back door?

That'd be better.

Hey, Jen.

Thanks again for making those flyers. I really appreciate it. See, there's a lot

from school here. I told you I didn't want to come. There was one thing I

didn't get a chance to do last week, but we need them for the rally.

Look, it's going to be fine. Her name's Sarah. All right, everybody, let's get

in. We're going to start.

Meg, you brought a friend.

I did. This is Sam.

Hi, Sam. Hi, Sam. Welcome.

You know what? Take a seat on the couch. It's the best seat in the house.

Alright guys, so we're going to go ahead and get started.

Thank you all for coming back.

We'll introduce, I guess, a little bit about what our group's mission and our

values are since Sam is new.

Be Proud is a totally volunteer-run, drop-in type of youth

support group, you could say. Anyone from the ages of 18 to 22 are welcome.

Even Jennifer, she's like, what, 20?

She's 24 The whole

reason why we started this group together was that we wanted to make sure

you know for anyone who is GLBT and questioning that you have a safe space

that it's inclusive that we all have a chance to just like Share stories and

get support and like hang out and we do movie nights and game nights and all

kinds of stuff so Why don't we actually?

share a little bit more about ourselves.

Maybe if everybody can go around, we can introduce ourselves, you know, how old

are we, where are we from, and our coming out stories.

I won't tell you guys my coming out story because I tell it all the time.

And I'm much older than this.

But why don't, Jen, why don't you go ahead and share with us. So, four years

ago, back home, visiting my mom.

my dad's not really in the picture and my mom works nights a friend of mine

introduced me to this message board where people share pictures and stories

and i think i'm home alone and turns out that night my mom decided to come home

from work early and she saw exactly what i was looking at

i guess i could have denied it and come up with some kind of excuse but i didn't

and i just

told her, like, between sobs that I was gay. She knows now that

I'm gay and, you know, she's not horrified. She didn't disown me, but

it's not, like, the best.

It is what it is.

My mom and I, I guess we were out shopping and we saw this lesbian couple.

And my mom is just, I don't get it. I don't understand how two women can...

I just, it's not right.

So I look at her and I go, what of it?

What's wrong with it? It's okay, just because you don't understand it doesn't

mean it's not okay.

You know, she accepted it. Things are good.

We get along and it could be a lot worse.

I'm Diana.

I'm 21.

I am very much in the middle of the journey.

One of the girls that I've been

like close friends with since we were really young um she's always kind of

been like i thought like the pretty one i had kind of a crush on her but

not i mean i never knew i knew it was never gonna be anything so i just kind

of put it down real after a while she just like picked up on my

horribly nervous energy around her

At lunch, we were sitting together eating and she just told me like, hey,

you know, if you like girls, nobody would care.

None of us would care at all. It'd be cool. Just like, I have no idea what

you're talking about.

Me? No, no, no, never.

And we just kind of let it be. You know, she didn't really like make me talk

about it more, but it was very understood that she like knew what was

going on. So my name is Sarah.

I think we've met a few times before, and I'm 18 years old. I feel like

my friends and everyone at school knew way before my family did.

It kind of all started like two years ago. There was this girl that I had a

few classes with.

She's still not out.

But everyone knows that she is gay. Like, it's pretty obvious. I don't know,

we just, we started hanging out a lot more and we would always go to each

other's houses after school or get lunch together.

Both admitted that we had feelings for each other and we started dating, but we

didn't want anyone to know.

So it was just like a secret.

But of course, we were always with each other and sometimes we would hold hands,

you know, as friends.

And then one day I was talking to my best friend, Julia.

You know Jules.

She sits in the front of the class in our history class.

And I was like, Julia, me and Jamie kind of have something going.

And she was like, I know.

And I was like, yeah.

And then she's like, everyone knows.

And I was like, oh my god.

I guess when we were holding hands as friends, everyone knew it was more than

that. And it was.

And then I was like, okay, good.

Hey, Sam.

Just a second.

Go. Sam, have you called your mother back?

She's been waiting to talk to you. You have to call her.

What?

What's up, bro?

You tried to get the first quarter. You're not going to win this time. I'm

in school. You got lucky last time. You got lucky last time.

Keep me posted.

No problem. Thanks for speaking.

Stop. I'm ready for you.

How's it going, Mr. B? How you doing? Good.

I've got cake for you.

Oh, boy.

What have we got?

I've got to give it a chance. Go on.

Born to rise.

Bones is my favorite.

I can hardly wait.

Alright.

I got one for you too.

I know you hate CDs.

Give it a shot.

Quality on those are so much better than your mixtapes.

Hate is a strong word.

I will definitely give it a listen.

It's the future.

Trust me.

So, what are we thinking?

I mean, I figured I'd go to Huron since my dad teaches there.

Just makes sense.

You sure you want to do that?

Yeah.

This is a great time to spread your wings.

Dawson's a great school.

Great arts program.

I've heard great things about Dawson. I like the idea of it, but...

There's this girl that I know that is gonna go there, so I'm gonna

pass. In school.

You're never gonna see that girl again. You're gonna make all kinds of new

friends.

I guess I'm kind of really turned off to it because we used to see each other.

Seeing?

Yeah, dating.

So you're... I'm gay.

Oh.

Uh... Oh.

Oh.

Uh...

How long have you known?

I mean, how did you know?

I guess I've always known.

It didn't fully click for me until I was at summer camp.

There was this girl, Tabitha.

She stayed on the bunk across from mine, and before lights out, we'd sit and

chat.

She had a really pretty smile. She was really cool.

But I guess I really knew when we'd go out to the lake, we'd be on the dock,

and Tabitha was coming into herself

sooner than most of us other girls, you know, just developing a lot faster.

Okay.

I don't need all the details, I don't think.

Of course.

Well, have you... What do they call it?

Come out?

Have you told your parents or your friends? I mean, do they know?

I haven't, like, formally come out yet, but I'm pretty sure everyone knows.

I don't try to hide it, so...

That's a pretty big deal, right? I mean, that's... Who I am?

Yeah, I guess it is.

I think I'm coming up on that.

Hmm.

Mm.

Shhh.

I need to tell you about my weekend.

Please. So I went to this amazing party.

A lot of people.

And I met this gorgeous couple. I mean, they were hot.

So, you know, I go over there because, you know, I got to meet everybody.

So I go there and I start flirting with them. And she's outgoing, but he's a

little shy.

But she was feeling my vibe. She knew what I was about.

Okay. So she goes and she's like, I want to see you guys kiss.

And, you know, I'm down for it. But he was like, I don't know.

I've never done anything like that. I was like, me neither, bro. Don't worry

about it.

I said, do you want to do it?

And he was like, well, yeah. I was like, do you want to see that? And she's like,

yeah.

So one thing led to another, and we just started breaking out.

And all of a sudden, she's like, we've got to find another place that we can

have fun.

Hey, Sam.

Hey. Do you mind if I join you guys?

No, not at all. Sure.

Hey, I've seen you before, right?

I'm JC.

I know.

I'm Sarah.

Oh, that's right.

Gym class.

Yes. How you doing?

Good. How are you?

I'm doing great.

Just talking about our weekend.

I want to hear more about that.

We don't need to talk about that. We got guests right now.

Sorry. We'll talk about it in a bit, but wait.

How do you two know each other?

We met at this thing. We have some mutual friends.

The community center.

Community center?

And you didn't invite me?

It's like more of a support group.

What kind of support group?

Um, it was at the LGBT Center.

LGBT Center.

Really, Sam?

You know how long I've been trying to get you to go there?

And now you decide to go without me?

I'm sorry, I didn't think it was a big deal. It was like a one-time thing.

Well, you made it a big deal the last time I invited you.

Well, it was a while ago, to be fair.

Well, did you have fun?

Yeah, I met some really cool people.

We shared our coming out stories.

Oh, really?

And Sam got a lot more comfortable.

Sam, you... Did you come out?

No, I didn't really have a story, but I got to listen to everyone else's.

Oh.

You know what?

I forgot. I gotta go meet somebody.

I will catch up with you later.

It was nice meeting you. Sarah?

Yeah, it was nice seeing you again. Yeah.

See you later.

So, you're never coming back to the group?

Just a one-time thing?

I mean, I wouldn't say never.

It's just that I noticed that you guys were kind of doing the whole activist

thing, and that's not really my jam.

You think we're activists?

Yeah, I mean, you guys do all these events, and there's, like, parades and

stuff, and I just don't do well with big crowds, so it's just not really my

scene. Well, that's fine.

I understand where you're coming from.

But if you're never going to come back to the group, maybe

sometime... You and I could get together, just the two of us.

Okay.

Sure.

And also, there's this thing this weekend.

It's not any activist stuff, but the group is getting together and we're

going to have some food.

So maybe you could come eat with us.

Sounds cool.

I'm really glad we talked.

Me too.

Hey, baby.

Hey, Sharon.

Hey, Jim. How's it going?

It's good.

Happy birthday, okay?

Well, happy birthday.

Thanks, Mom.

Nineteen. I mean, goodness, that's... You're such a young lady.

It's been... I know it's been several years and I haven't been around as much,

but you know I'm still here for you, right?

If there's anything that you have questions about or you need to tell me,

I'm happy to listen.

I'm not saying this right.

I've been watching and just super impressed with the young lady that

you've grown into.

And seeing you develop your own way through the world, it's really

inspiring. You seem to be finding your own way

about things, and you're happy.

I'm gay mom.

I'm so happy for you, honey. I love you no matter what. You know that, right?

And I've known so many people over the years. Everybody seems very, very

happy. I think you're going to be very happy, too.

I know. You're going to find somebody.

I have a girlfriend, too.

Already?

That's wonderful.

Wow.

What's her name?

Sarah. Oh, that sounds lovely. I'm sure she's lovely.

Maybe could I meet her?

Maybe could the three of us have dinner? I'd take you two out to dinner.

Yeah, maybe.

Okay, well, this has been wonderful.

I'm glad we talked about this.

Could I maybe borrow the car tonight, too?

Yeah, I don't see why not.

Let's have some dinner and then you can do whatever you need to do.

Thank you so much for spending my birthday with me.

Of course you would thank me for that.

I don't know, this has just been a really nice night, and I just wanted you

to know that.

even have a night like this.

and your confidence and... I didn't... I didn't... I just...

Overwhelming, but in the right way.
