Listen, I'm so glad we got to hang out last weekend.
Loved the cabin, by the way, Benji.
Such a warm color palette.
Oh, and that fireplace nook was positively dreamy.
I watched Queer Eye, so I know what's good.
‐ Andrew, why are you being so weird?

Or is a straight ally?
Look, point is, I'm an ally.
All right, what happened with the team was messed up.
Yes, but whenever you're ready,
we want you back.

I mean, you started basketball because your dad loves it, right?
‐ Yeah. Maybe you're right.
Maybe I just played basketball because it seemed like something
a straight kid would like to do. ‐ Exactly.
Screw basketball. ‐ Yeah, screw basketball!
[Victor and Mia laugh] Sorry. I just wanted to fit in.
‐ Well, hi. [laughs] ‐ Hi.
Uh, are we still going to Benji's friends and family concert after school?
‐ Yes. Been working with the new band on some music,

I have to go to bed like, now.

I've seen every episode of Teen Mom
and that is not going down on my watch. Now, Felix,
honey, you know I am just very fond of you.
But get out of my house so I can lull myself into a low key coma
with the edibles my assistant gave me, okay?

CORYN: Yeah, such a basic high school sports person.
MYLO: Coryn! Victor plays basketball.
‐ Oh.
‐ I actually just quit,
so I'm not a "basic high school sports person" anymore.
‐ Yeah, Victor's in the early stages of jock recovery.
He just escaped the cult of cheap body spray and casual misogyny.

The sports. The church boy haircut.
He's your perfect straight boy fantasy.

ISABEL: Armando and I were intimate.
We're just separated. We're still married, so it's not a sin. [laughs]
Although I guess he would be the judge of that. [laughs]
[clears throat] We're having dinner
to talk about getting back together.
We have our problems, but, I, I,
I really want things to work out.
‐ What kind of problems?
He... He doesn't really know how to talk about his emotions.
‐ Yeah, it's like since I started coming here,
I feel way more in touch with my feelings.
You know? And‐‐ thanks.
And it just feels so good to not have everything bottled up inside.
I feel like I'm growing as a person,
which feels dumb to say, since I'm in my forties.
‐ Oh, no. It's not dumb.
Having a kid come out, it changes you.
I mean, last month, I went to drag queen bingo.
‐ How was that? ‐ It's... fun.
I barely recognize the woman I used to be.
All because my kid was brave enough to say "I'm gay."
FATHER LAWRENCE: He is? When did he share this with you?
‐ A couple months back.
Armando has been surprisingly accepting of all of this,
considering his machismo.
But I am struggling.
And I, I know...
I know that Victor didn't choose to be this way...
‐ You're a good mother.
That's very clear.
But I think you're, you're right
to express your disapproval,
if you want Victor to know God's love.
‐ Oh.
‐ You sound disappointed.
‐ That's what I was always taught.
I just thought maybe the church was a little more flexible nowadays.
‐ Do you think God is in the business of providing loopholes? [chuckles]
ARMANDO: I just thank God for giving me the courage
to come here, and...
to love my son for who he is.
‐ Oh... [laughs softly]
Meeting's starting. ‐ Right.
‐ [grunts] Oof.
‐ I thought you were done with basketball.
‐ Andrew, what are you doing? You following me now?
‐ Come on. Let's go.
All right.
You live for this.
‐ [sighs] Listen.
How many times do I have to tell you
I'm not gonna be part of a team that doesn't want me?
‐ And how many times do I have to tell you they will come around?
‐ Right.
Because I am "the least gay gay person alive."
‐ I'm guessing that was a stupid thing to say. ‐ No.
No, it was perfect.
Please, tell me what's the exact level of gay I should be.
What is a perfect level of gay that will keep everyone happy?
Because apparently, I'm too gay for the locker room,
but I'm not gay enough for Benji and his friends.
So, where do I belong?
‐ You belong on a basketball court.
‐ [sighs] Let's say I do come back.
What happens if one day I do want to be more "gay gay?"
And I change the way I dress,
or, or I dye my hair pink. Then what?
‐ Are those things that you really want?
‐ I think the pink hair thing could be kind of dope.
‐ Well, then, I think you should do it.
If anyone has a problem with it, they can answer to me.
‐ Andrew,
do you really think that you're an ally because you watch Queer Eye?
This whole time, you haven't said shit to the guys
that don't want me changing in the locker room with them.
Because at the end of the day,
you don't want to risk your reputation for the gay kid.
[Victor grunts]
‐ Benji and Victor are such a hot couple.
Not that you and Victor weren't a hot couple. [Mia chuckles]
You guys were a really hot couple.
But I should just stop talking. ‐ [laughs] It's okay.
I just want Victor to be happy.
I want all my friends to be happy.
You, uh, seem to make Andrew very happy.
‐ Oh, thanks.
[chuckles]
To be honest, I'm surprised we've lasted this long.
‐ Really? Why?
‐ We're just so opposite.
Earlier this summer when we hooked up,
I just thought it was gonna be, like, a hot fling.
And then suddenly I'm his girlfriend...
Can I ask you something?
‐ Sure. Yeah. What's up?
‐ When we were at the cabin,
I saw you and Andrew outside together.
And it just seemed like... I don't know.
There was something about the way you were looking at each other...
Is there something going on?
‐ We hooked up once.
A long time ago. But there's nothing between us now.
I swear.
‐ Hmm.
‐ Is that, "Hmm, that's so random."
Or, "Hmm, hold my earrings. I'm about to clock a bitch."
[both laughing] ‐ No, it's fine. Um, I'm just surprised.
Andrew never mentioned it.
‐ I'm, I'm sure he just didn't want to make you feel weird.
‐ I don't. I mean, feel weird.
I should feel a little weird, though, shouldn't I?
I mean, if I really cared about this relationship,
shouldn't I, like, feel something?
‐ I shouldn't have said anything.
‐ No. No, I'm really glad that you did.
This is... really helpful.

It broke something, and that is my fault.
And I am so sorry that I,
I pressured you so hard to get over it.
‐ No. But our problems started before that.
Yeah, I‐I think the real reason we separated was because
we were stuck in a pattern,
and the only way to get un‐stuck is if we both change.
That's why I keep asking you to come to PFLAG with me.
And every time you say no,
it just feels like you don't want to change. ‐ I do want to.
I went to see Father Lawrence yesterday,
to talk about everything.
‐ How'd it go?
‐ He said if... Victor chooses this path,
that he will never know God's love.
And I'm thinking, how can that be?
He is such a good son. He is such a good person...
Why is this happening to him?
‐ Is‐Isa, it's not happening to him, okay?
It's just who he is.
You know, this whole thing with Victor, it's...

anytime I wanted to take the easy way out,
there was always this annoying voice in the back of my head,
pushing me to do better. To be better.
You know whose voice that is?
