(Woman 3) No, I don't think so.
The words are too small.

(Woman 2)
You guys gonna go outside?

- I wouldn't. I'm not going...
- (Woman 2) You're going outside?

- Or I think I will.
- (Woman 2) No, no.

We'll have a little picnic outside.

A Mr Shanrock here to see you.
Says he's an attorney.

Should I tell him you're dead?

(Footsteps approaching)

Patrick Pitsenbarger!
It's been years.

Have you seen
"The Register" today?

I'm sorry to let you know that
a former client has passed away.

We've lost

Rita Parker Sloan.

Rita specified in her will

that you were to do her hair
and make-up for the funeral.

First showing is
day after tomorrow at 11am.

Ransom Funeral Home will require
your services tomorrow night.

(Paper rustles)

That photo is from a year ago.

Perhaps you could recreate
the same hairstyle?

- Split ends and all?
- He speaks!

Oh, I'll... I'll never forget

how you used to make up Rita
for her Christmas parties at the mansion.

Boy oh boy, Patrick...

You made Rita Parker Sloan
the most glamorous woman in town.

She should have updated her will.

I entered her final revisions personally
a week before she died.

Rita left me... as a client.
You remember?

I also remember
you were close friends,

- dear friends.
- (Sighs)

(Clicks tongue)
I haven't pulled hair in years.

Naturally, the will makes a provision
for services rendered.

(Paper rustling)

Rita wants to make things right.

I'm retired.

- (Beeps)
- (Chair whirs)

Let bygones be bygones, Patrick.

It's not healthy
to hold a grudge.

You would deny a great woman
her dying wish?

(Door opens)

Show the gentleman the door.

Mr Shanrock?

Bury her with bad hair.

Is the Ransom Funeral Home
still downtown?

Yes, sir.

Water Street, just down past
the Parker Sloan Mansion.

Have a nice day.

(Josiah) It's some hike
from here though.

(Footsteps receding)

(Groans)

Sir, are you all right?

Let me give you a hand.

Mores? For real?

Folks don't ask
for these nowadays.

(Paper rustles)

Your wife still smokes Mores?

(Paper rustles)

(Lighter clicks)

(Exhales)

She adores them.

Knapp Beauty Supply,
still on Tiffin Avenue?

No clue, dude.

There's a fabulous salon
down by the waterfront,

Dee Dee Dale's place.

(Scoffs) She's still alive?

(Woman 1) Dee Dee has everything.

Thank you, miss, but my client demands
high-quality beauty products.

Like Vivanté.

(Woman 2 scoffs)
They still make Vivanté?

- (Machine beeps)
- 5.23.

For one pack?

(Notes rustle)

You can charge it instead?

- You cash checks?
- (Lyle) Personal?

Government.

I know what you're thinking.

How can someone so flawless
possibly be on Social Security?

You took the words
right out of my mouth.

Two more packs of Mores
for the road.

There are plenty more
where this came from.

David gave them all to me
and each one has a story.

I'll bet.

- (Pat) I have a job to do.
- (Woman) What's that?

I have to make a lady beautiful.
Her hair.

Is that what you do?

- You're a beautician?
- Yeah. I was... Yeah, yeah.

I'm a hairdresser,
I was very successful...

- Oh!
- When I was young

in this beautiful town.

I had the best clients,
the richest woman.

- Who was that?
- And then...

- What?
- Who was that?

Rita.

And then, my assistant
opened her own store

right across from me

and took one of my most
important clients with her.

- That took some nerve.
- Yeah, and then my friend died.

Your friend, David?

Yeah, David died.
And I took a second mortgage.

But the nephew took everything.
He got everything. I lost it.

- What did David die of?
- AIDS.

(Chuckles)

Honey, you are
a fiery one yourself too.

(Upbeat music)

- This used to be...
- White?

My beauty supply store.

- I had an account.
- Oh.

You goin' way back in the day.
(Chuckles)

What you looking for?

Perfect Powder Bleach
and Vivanté.

(All cackle)

You won't get that here.

And, baby, that smack
don't stick to nappy heads.

Now, if you want some
Kizzy's Daughter Pomade,

or Miss Zora's Buttercream,

hell, even some juicy ass
Jerri Curl, I got you.

- Try Dee Dee Dale's downtown.
- I'd rather swallow mucus.

Oh! (Laughter)

Why don't you tell us
how you really feel? (Chuckles)

He right, though.

I graduated with Dee Dee
and she nasty. (Scoffs)

Well, Dee Dee's the only game
in town these days, for real.

Aw, baby. You look
like your poodle just died.

I mean, we lost our Sally Beauty.

Unless you finna drive
all the way out to Lora in.

Whoa, hold up, baby.
Slow your roll.

Now, your poor white head
turned to a hot damn crisp.

- (Phyllis) Yes, it is.
- I don't suppose you sell sunscreen?

(Laughter)

Oh, that was good. You...

Oh, bless his heart.
Help him out.

Hmm.

(Pat sighs)

Here, take Erma's hat.

I don't wanna hear nothing
about no skin cancer. (Chuckles)

And Erma won't miss it?

(Ro) No, baby. Erma's dead.

Erma don't miss shit.

Yes. That girl!

(Evie) Can you hear me?

(Indistinct chatter)

You tore my house down?

(Sighs)

- She was just too far gone.
- We feel sick.

Did you find
anything down there?

- Like what?
- There was a box of Vivanté.

Ooh! Don't go anywhere.

Please, let's step outside.

Here, David and I
planted the calla lilies.

And there was the fountain.

Oh, is that what that was?

My client, Rita, donated the tiles
she brought back from Italy

to do her master bath.

But then she changed
her mind about the colour.

(Evie chuckles)

David built it.
Everything from scratch.

- Sounds like quite a guy.
- But he didn't have a will.

Oh.

His nephew inherited everything.

Well, at least something like
that can never happen today.

- Yeah. Great.
- Surprise! Remember this?

Where's my shampoo?

This was all that was left
in your old house.

(Gentle music)

I think I should go.

Will you come back
and visit sometime?

Yeah.

- (Evie) Bye, Pat.
- (Scottie) Bye.

- Thanks for the lunch!

Uh, cream and sugar.

(David's voice echoes) Hey, mister.

Come to the garden.

(Inhales)

- (Man) So sorry to hear about Rita.
- (Shanrock) Yes, great woman.

(Pat) Mr Shanrock.

- (Pat) Mr Shanrock?
- Pat?

I'll do Rita. One condition.

I need cash now.

Oh, I'm sure
Rita would be tickled pink.

But there's a protocol, Pat.

I can't just make a withdrawal
from First Sandusky.

Oh, no?
Your brother owns the bank!

We will be delighted
to prepare a certified check

for 25,000 dollars
after the estate clears probate.

- And how long would that take?
- No more than 6 months.

6 months? I'll be dead by then!

Listen, buster.
I know we've had our ups and downs.

But like I told you, when your partner's
next of kin retained the firm

to settle his estate,
I don't make the rules.

And I most certainly don't walk
around town with my client's money.

I have expenses.
I have to purchase beauty products.

Give me a loan.
Some kind of advance, please.

(Groans) Would two tens help?

The Ransoms will have
Rita ready by 7pm tonight.

Please be prompt.
You know Sherman doesn't like to wait.

Linda,
I'm gonna take you at five.

We're gonna do the straightener.

- Do you have an appointment?
- No.

Okay. I'm just gonna
put this in for you.

And here's 5% of your next
and you'll have Caroline.

She's so good. Okay, darling?

- Thank you very much.
- Of course. Have a wonderful day.

You too.

- (Upbeat music in the background)

(Dee Dee) Oh my God.

Pat?

Is it you?

No.

(Dee Dee) You look so

athletic.

Wow. Come on in.

(Sighs)
Now, Tristan, check this out.

This man gave me
my first job in the business.

And now he is
mopping your Vivanté.

Well...
he shouldn't have done that,

but after all, you gotta catch this guy
a break 'cause... he really is a legend.

This is Patrick Pitsenbarger.

He did all the socialites of Sandusky
back in the day.

That's right. Once upon a time.

Well, I can dust that off
for you if you want.

Yeah, you know,
I started off sweeping hair,

and then, I worked my way
all the way up to second chair.

I was so proud
when Dee Dee opened up her own shop

right across the street from mine.

You know,
Patrick was always so particular.

(Pat) And Dee Dee was very nice
to my clients.

In fact, she took my best one with her
when she quit.

Well, Sandusky is

having a real comeback
right now, huh?

My business is doing great.
I know that.

I mean, I've had to expand
this place

and make it a multi-service salon
with all the amenities.

Clients want craft, Dee Dee,
no bells and whistles.

No...

God forbid you ever listened
to anybody about anything.

You know what? They, uh

they've discontinued the Vivanté

because it's...
It's got too high VOCs.

But you know, I mean, there's plenty
of green and clean technologies

you know, that came up
after you lost your little shop.

(Scoffs)

But that's okay.
It's Rita's favourite.

Oh.

Well, maybe, you're gonna have
to tell Rita that in Heaven.

I mean, you don't even know this,
but Rita kicked the bucket this week.

My dear,
I'm on the way to Ransom.

No, you're not.

Sherman's doing her in house.

Shanrock came personally.
And he begged me.

He begged me to do her hair.

Really?

In death, Rita remembered
that she had taste.

Taste or dementia? You decide.

But anyway, you know,
whatever you gotta do

to feel good about yourself.

Guess what, I'm gonna give
this to you for 2.49.

That's a dead-stock discount.

Oh, you don't have the money?

Aw, I'm sorry.
I can't give it to you.

Because guess what, I'm still waiting
for my last three pay checks.

All right

silly!

So it's...
I'm gonna give it to you.

It's just, I mean, I...

But I don't know how much good
it's gonna do you because, you know

all the bald spots.

(Phone ringing)

(Breathes heavily)

(Dee Dee) I didn't steal Rita
from you, Mister Pat.

You dropped the ball
and I was there to catch it.

(Panting) Eunice?

Eunice!

(Birds chirping)

(Dog barking)

- (Scraping)
- (Male voice on radio)

(Clattering)

- Hm.
- (Clattering)

(Hangers clattering)

- You made me blonde.
- Excuse me?

I wasn't sure at first,

but then I saw the rings
and I knew.

I came to you when I was 19.
Remember?

- Yes.
- (Laughs)

I wouldn't think you would remember.
I only came in there once.

I'm sorry.

Are you kidding me?
You were wonderful.

I had a young one at the time

and I couldn't keep up
with the blonde maintenance.

Or the price, as I recall.
You weren't cheap.

- (Clicks tongue) No?
- (Laughing)

(Sighs)

(Pat) I'm surprised
you still remember me.

Who could forget
the Liberace of Sandusky?

- Was I that butch?
- (Laughs)

Can I help you find something?

How about everything?

(Inhales)
Oh! Give me one second.

(Footsteps receding)

Ta-da!

I've been saving it
for the right customer.

Try it on?

So, how's it fitting?

(Pat) Not sure I can still pull it off.

(Inhales) Show me.

Must have been before my time.

Yes. It was before
you were conceived.

- You see that stage?
- (Gabriel) Uh-huh.

My lover, David, built that.
He was, uh, very handy.

In more ways than one.

(Chuckles)

I sewed the curtains,

and Eunice
put the glitter in the paint.

Every queen in town
pitched in to open this dump.

But maybe you're too young
to know who Tim and Mike were.

They opened the bar.

There were so many people
I remember.

Miss Cheesecake, Dirty Ankle?

And there was
one very interesting customer.

Harry.

He was a truck driver
and he came every Saturday

to see me perform. "Mister Pat".

He was very nice.

Well, I heard that most
of the regulars stopped coming out.

But... But maybe your friends
will make it tonight, for old times' sake.

(Upbeat music plays faintly
in the background)

This place was family.

What's happened
with the crystal chandelier,

that hung above the dance floor?

It got old. They took it down.

(Pat) Huh.

Another of Rita's hand-me-downs.

If she would have known
what these crystals have seen.

Oh!

- What? Where?
- Tonight's the last night.

I don't understand.

Harvey sold out
to some young gay couple.

They're turning the whole building
into this straight gastro micro brew pub.

"Gastro" what?

They're installing giant tanks
to brew artisan craft beer.

(Inhales)

But where will we dance?

(Sighs)

- Here. Keep the change.
- (Gasps) Hey, big spender.

(High-pitched piercing tone)

(Disco music)

(Audience cheering)

(Pat) I'm back.

Why don't you see me?

I'm right here.

- Oh. Oh. Oh.
- (Audience cheers)

(High-pitched piercing tone
grows louder)

(Man) Pick it up, guys.
We're falling behind.

(Seagulls cawing)

Send that arrangement back.
Everything must be perfect.

- (Hum of traffic)
- Taxi!

- Where to?
- I don't know. Just drive!

(Breathes heavily)

(Dustin) Grandma chose all the photos
for her funeral display.

(Shanrock)
Rita wants to make things right.

(Dee Dee) God forbid you ever listen
to anybody about anything.

(Breathes heavily)

- (Dog barking)
- (Foreboding music)

(Panting)

(Wind howling)

(Gentle upbeat music)

(Seagulls cawing)

(Sighs)

(Seagulls cawing)

(Knocking)

Eunice?

Eunice.

(Eunice) Yeah?

Holy hell!

Pat, you're still alive?

- You're still sucking cock?
- Christ on the cross, queen.

A bitch can't even powder her nose
without getting the third degree.

Now, step back,
let me get a good look at you.

You look fantastic.

- Shit, I just saw your shoes.
- (Laughs)

- (Laughs)
- (Eunice) Oh baby, I missed you.

I missed you too.
Don't overdo it.

Oh, I always do.

Hm.

I heard the Fruit and Nut is closing.
You going?

I haven't set foot in years.

Why not?

Gay bars are so '90s.

The Velvet Slipper's gone
in Lora in

and that bar in Mansfield's
about to close too.

- Our safe places.
- Mm-hm.

I mean,
who needs the Fruit and Nut

when they can
hold hands at Applebee's?

(Laughs)

Besides, that place
made me a goddamn drunk.

Do you remember what we performed
for the opening night?

Oh, and thank God I talked you out
of that Marlene Dietrich number.

But your Shirley Bassey routine
brought down the house!

And you did both,
the Peaches and Herb.

- At the same time.
- At the same time.

(Laughter)

Girl, you taught me everything
I never wanted to know. (Laughs)

- (Phone beeps)
- (Laughs)

- You got a call.
- Oops.

- (Sighs)
- (Phone beeps)

- One of your boys?
- Let me tell you something.

The trade on here
would make your head spin.

- Show me.
- (Phone beeps)

Ah! (Sighs)

I do better on here,
than I ever did in the bars.

Yet, here you are,
cruising the tearoom. (Laughs)

I like to cover my bases.
(Laughs)

What on earth?

What on earth are they doing?

These daddies with their

- babies.
- Mm-hm.

(Indistinct chatter)

I wouldn't even know
how to be gay anymore.

(Laughs) Tell that to your pantsuit.

(Man) Great job, buddy.

(Sighs)

(Baby crying)

(Pat) I'm happy for them.

(Eunice) And jealous as hell.

(Pat) Those kids will remember them
long after they have gone.

And who will remember us?

- You left a big mark.
- On who?

Those gay dads should drop
to their knees and kiss your rings.

Which one?

Especially the cubic zirconia
on your left ring finger.

'Cause, bitch, you know
that's the only one that's real.

(Laughs)

(Pat) You evil bitch.

I went to see David today.

Is he still dead?

My name was on the tombstone.

(Eunice) No shit.
You paid for the damn thing?

Today was the first time
I saw it.

Don't tell me, you are
still mad at that old whore.

Jesus, honey,
when are you gonna move on?

Why didn't you tell me
about my house?

I went there.
There was nothing there.

You don't tell someone
in a goddamn nursing home

their house has been demolished.
It's bad etiquette.

But you could have come
and said, "Hi."

At least you had a home.

And a David.

(Chuckles)

I had a house, and a David.

And both are gone.

But you're here.

(Eunice) You're not gone.

(Foreboding music)

(Knocking)

Eunice.

(Seagulls cawing)

- (Knocking)
- Eunice.

And you old bitch,
sitting next to me.

(Sobs)

(Indistinct chatter)

(Laughter)

(Gabriel) How did it go?

- I quit the bitch.
- (Chuckles)

Oh... Frozen fucking pizza
lit the toaster oven on fire.

But I extinguished the blaze, girl.
I am here, I am alive!

And did you select a song?

I barely survive
a DiGiorno inferno

and you trifle me
for a song selection?

(Scoffs)
Shame on you, Gabriel. Shame.

Is Velma all right?

One Coco Roco
and she will be just fine.

(Clattering)

(Indistinct chatter)

Look like you seen a ghost.

Gabriel sent on me
to check on you.

(Exhales)

(Sighs) I dropped this bitch
on a Crockpot.

It's the last night,
I have no idea what I'm doing.

- (Clattering)
- Take the edge off.

(Exhales) Gorgeous skin.

- Where are you from?
- Hancock Street.

- Nice.
- (Scoffs) You been there lately?

- Been performing long?
- 2 years.

I finally start to get good
and they close the damn bar.

What's your act?

Batten down the hatches, boys,

man your harpoons and make way
for Miss Velma Humpback!

- "There she blows!"
- Aw, yes, queen. (Chuckles)

Forget this little town,
Miss Velma.

You'd be big in Cleveland.

(Scoffs) Well, ain't you
just the sweetest thing?

(Lighter clicks)

- Oh, hell, no.
- Sit down. Close your eyes.

I'm a professional. No peeking.

Oh. Hey, Pat.

She's a real hot mess in there.

Total resting bitch face.

Resting dead bitch face.

(Exhales, sniffs)

She needs your touch.

(Gentle melancholic music)

Get Dee Dee back.

Don't you dare.

(Sighs)

Dee Dee would do a better job.

Bullshit.

I didn't know
that you looked that bad.

Well then, fix me, goddamn it.

When David died,
you didn't come to the funeral.

And now you want me
to rescue yours?

Pat, for Christ's sake,
I never even met David.

We talked about him,
every Friday at 4:00 for 33 years.

You know,
I don't do well at funerals.

Really?

I adore them.

You're not making this easy, Patrick.
I'm trying to make this right.

I know I was your servant,

but I thought I was your friend.

You knew every
goddamn secret I ever had.

And you never listened once
to mine.

It was another world
back then, Pat.

People evolve, they let go.

Maybe you should too.

Have a fun funeral.

I was embarrassed! Okay?

About how David died.

When I did let you know

how much it hurt.

(Sighs) that you weren't there.

Because I needed you there
at that moment.

(Sighs)

Where were you?

I left you. (Sighs)

And the whole town followed.

(Sighs)

(Rita) I'm sorry.

(Sobs) I'm sorry.

(Gentle melancholic music)

I forgive you.

I forgive you.

You're going to be beautiful.

I'll make you beautiful.

Yes.

(Music continues)

(Music fades)

(Organ music)

(Gasps)

Pat.

Thank you.

May I share something with you?

I was 15 when Grandma Rita
sat me down

and asked me if there was anything
I needed to tell her.

We were so conservative.

I was scared to death
to tell her the truth.

But finally.

I did.

"Don't worry," she said.

"My best friend's gay too."

We stayed up all night.

She told me all about
you and David.

(Seagulls cawing)

(Gentle contemplative music)

(Dustin) Even though
I never really knew you.

I want you to know
you changed my life.

Oh, baby, I missed you.
