to be doing this
Chris, please, not right now
- What do you mean "not right now"
- I mean not right now
- Oh, sorry
Just forget this ever happened
Chris!!
Jim
- In here
- What are doing in there ?
- Hiding from your crazy ex-boyfriend
- I told you I don't have
a crazy ex-boyfriend.
Everything is fine.
Now will you please
come out of there ?
- Seriously ?
Which ex was him ?
The good-looking one, the crazy one,
the rich one ?
- Very funny...
It was just an old friend who wanted to talk
- He could have stayed to talk
I would have been fine leaving
No, I'd rather just get back
where we were before
- What the fuck ?
- Aaahhh
- What...Chris!!!!
- Uhh...Uuhhh...
- Shit... look
- What's going on here ?
- Chris
- You can't be mad at me forever
even because tomorrow night we have to be
at your parents house
for your mum's birthday dinner
- Well, I don't know if Jillian mentioned,
but we went to the flower shop
the other day
and we picked out
the flowers for the wedding
- Go ahead tell them
They're so beautiful and they smell...
amazing amazing
The whole place is gonna smell like...
- Oh my gosh! Against the red tablecloth
it's gonna be beautiful
and it's gonna be the most amazing wedding.
Honey you're gonna love it, you will
[Music]
- Jim how do you like the meat ?
- It's a bit tough heh ?
- Sure he doesn't mind his meat a little bit tough
- It's fine honey
[Music]
- Chris...
What is going on ?
- I'll go and see what's gotten into
I don't know it's...
You know it's probably nothing...
- Yeah, yeah
- Anyway...
- When are you gonna tell mom ?
- When are you gonna tell Gillian ?
- What do you mean ?
- Rob told me about
your coming-out moment last year
- Great
- I know you're upset over this
and you have all the right to
but what I'm feeling
probably isn't too far
from what you're...
- Oh shit! Doesn't make up for the fact
that you've been lying in this family
for who knows how long...
- You're right. I am a liar
to you, your mother, my friends
and, worst of all, myself.
The truth is I can't even tell you
how long it's been since
I've felt this way
I guess because of the times
in which I was raised
it was a feeling I always suppressed
and that doesn't mean
I never loved your mother
- If you loved her
then you would tell her the truth
- I want to
but right now
I'm too afraid of hurting her.
- Holding now is it gonna make this any better ?
When she'll find out the truth on her own
she's gonna hate you even more
Trust me, I know
- You're right
I'll tell her when I feel the time is right
- You know what dad ? You are right
I feel the time it's right now
- Chris, wait
- Wait for what?
For you to keep holding out ?
Look, I'm not gonna live my life like you
being afraid of who I am and
who I wanto to be
Chris
listen
I'm so proud of you
for feeling what you're feeling
and being the person
that you want to be
I have had to live my life everyday
knowing that I'm living a lie
and that kills me inside
but with all that pain comes to joy
knowing that I have you and your mom in my life
I never want to lose you
so I made the choice
to live that lie
You have to understand
the repercussions of telling the truth
the way you want to.
Just
let me take care of it with your mother
I'll tell her when the time is ripe
I promise
I love you son
- I love you dad
- Chris
I'm sure you'll tell Gillian
when the time is right
- When the time is right
- Everything's okay ?
- Yeah, yeah yeah things are fine
There is only this I want to tell you
- I' m sorry.
- You go first
- No you go first.
Yours is probably more important
- Yeahh! Gillian why don't you go first ?
Chris I'm pregnant
- You ? What ?
- You're gonna be a father
- We're gonna be grand-parents
- So babe what did you want to tell me ?
