The Other Two (2019–…): Season 3, Episode 5 - Cary & Brooke Go to an AIDS Play - full transcript

As Cary tries to take control of his relationship by making in-roads with Lucas's representation, Brooke is pulled back into her manager role when Chase falls for a "normal" girl.

Even though we're breaking up,

we want you to know

this is not your
fault, you hear me?

Yeah, it didn't
remotely occur to us

that this would be our fault.

Yeah, I just assumed it's yours?

No, no, no. It was
not Streeter's fault.

And we still love
each other very much.

We just realized we're
at different places

in our lives.

So now let's get back
to the nitty gritty.



You'll, of course, still
live with your mother.

We both live on our own.

But I will have custody
every other weekend.

So I will pick you
up Fridays at 4:00.

And I need you on that
curb right at 4:00,

because that is my time.

Again, we are 33
and 35 years old.

And, of course, you
each have a bedroom

at my new place.

I, uh, decorated them

specifically for you,

so you feel nice and comfortable

when you stay at,
um, "Daddy's house."

So what do you think?



Sounds a heck of a lot better
than this dump, am I right?

I'm
kidding, of course.

And if I ever hear you
badmouthing your mother,

I will put the kibosh on that
so fast your heads will spin.

Now, give me a hug, you two.

- God.
- We will get through this.

Until then,

just cry it out on
Daddy's shoulder.

- You crying, Cary?
- Yes, I'm crying.

- ♪ I-I-I'm a winner ♪

Eee! I've never been
to the opening night

of a Broadway play before.

It's so cool you're
dating one of the actors.

Lucas is doing such
prestigious stuff now.

Yeah, I thought it'd be
cool, but then I remembered

prestigious, when
you're gay, means...

Hello, good evening.

Thank you for coming to
"8 Gay Men with AIDS:

A Poem in Many Hours."

And exactly how
many hours is it?

- Why?
- Oh, no. Sorry.

Never mind. It's a
very important topic

and I... I'll be here
as long as they want.

- Thank you.
- Okay, but I don't understand

what the problem is with
Lucas being in this?

Well, this is just
the third role

where the two of us can't fuck.

Like, first he
was a teen virgin,

then he was closeted
at Christmas.

- Now he has full HIV?
- Okay, homophobic.

It's not the '80s.

Everyone knows you can have
sex with someone who has HIV.

Yeah, but it sort of
is the '80s to him.

- I promise you we can have sex.
- It's not safe.

The doctors still don't
know what this is.

Yes, they do. It's HIV.

It's fully treatable.
Plus, I'm on PrEP,

we have condoms,
and... and this part

is very important,
you don't have HIV.

Maybe I should
stay at Streeter's?

- Ugh.
- Or maybe we break up

- with Lucas?
- Meredith, hi.

Ugh, I hate that I had to come

- straight from work to this.
- Oh, yeah.

- How's the new job?
- Well, let's see, Cary,

I've spent the last 30
days kneeling in dirt.

Nothing I've planted
is remotely a tree.

And everyone I work
with is so nice,

I literally fantasize about
slitting their throats,

which I know is bad.
I'm the wrong one.

So overall, not
really workin' out?

No, Cary. It's a full he...

- Whoo.
- Heaven. My job is heaven.

Man, how sexy is Cook
Brook in her tree shirt?

My little Shady Lady.

Yes, that is what we women
at work call ourselves.

- Hi, guys.
- Hey, look over here, Chase!

- Hey, guys. Let's do it.
- Let's do it.

- Right over here.
- Oh, my God.

Chase is here with
Kiernan Shipka?

- That is so...
- Insane.

- Smart.
- Hey, guys. This is Kiernan.

- We're engaged.
- Hi.

Yeah. We're getting married.

Sorry, you're engaged?

Yes. Chase has been
18 for nine weeks now.

And it's high time
he settled down

and had three to five children

with a member of
the Hollywood elite.

Kiernan's part of that elite.

- Right, Chase?
- Yeah. Yeah.

Kiernan, hi. I am a huge fan.

- You are such a great actor.
- Oh, thank you so much.

What do you do?

She plants trees for a living.

So cute. Do you
want a pic with me?

- Oh, uh, no.
- She'd love a pic.

- Get in there, baby.
- We should get a pic.

Let's do it. Oh, come on.
Get in here. It's no problem.

- Let's go.
- Oh, my God, you're gorgeous.

- Thank you, Kiernan.
- Babe.

- Thank you for this.
- Everyone, please head

- into the theater.
- Oh, so nice to meet you.

- Yeah.
- The play is about to begin.

Chase, Kiernan, this way.

We're in the box seats so
everyone can see you two.

Okay. Great. I just, um...

We'll see you in
there. Okay, honey?

Okay, Mom.

♪ Mmm ♪

♪ Hey, hey, hey ♪

♪ Pride can stand ♪

♪ A thousand trials ♪

- Hi.
- Hi.

Gummy worm?

My team says I'm
too hot for candy.

Oh, that's silly.
Here, have one.

♪ But watching stars ♪

♪ Without you, my soul ♪

Oh, no. I have to go.

When can I see you again?

Meet me at intermission.

Anon.

♪ Heeee ♪

January, 1981. Central Park.

It's a sunny day

but with an air that's crisp,

an air that portends.

Isn't Lucas so good?

You know, I'm his manager,
so I'm responsible

for every role he takes.

- W... uh... okay.
- Fucking Reagan.

Janice, get Reagan on the phone.

No, get the whole damn
administration on the phone.

I used
to be in the industry.

I'm like you, girl.

Oh, thank you.

Ugh. God.

Oh, shit.

So what is it, doctor?

The medical
community is baffled.

We just...

we still don't know
what it is yet.

Thank you.

We will now take a
brief intermission.

It's been a whole act

and they still
don't know it's HIV?

I mean, that's fine.

This is paced out
however it's paced out.

- Thank you.
- Say, "AIDS."

Hey there.
Just wanted to say hi.

I'm Lucas Lambert
Moy's boyfriend.

- Hey! Mike.
- Hey.

- You must be so proud.
- Yeah.

Lucas' first big
prestige gay role.

So proud. Uh, but
I was just curious

what other roles you
might be circling

- for ol' Lukey?
- Oh, man.

We're chasin' so many
prestige roles for him now.

First, there's obviously
the movie adaptation

- of this play.
- Oh, fuck no.

I mean, been there, done that.

Right? You know, I'd pass.

Then there's this other drama

we're really chasin'
about a conversion camp.

He'd play a counselor

who's actually closeted himself

and 'cause of his beliefs

never ever comes
out of the closet.

Then kills himself.

Oh, my God.

Is there anything coming up

that is prestigious and gay

but doesn't have, like,
nonstop trauma in it?

You know, like, the
character's just out and happy

and loves to fuck.

Hmm, there is one movie
about porn stars in the '70s.

It's Adam McKay,
so still prestige.

And there's a gay
porn star in it?

Yeah... they wanted Lucas

or another one of
my clients for it,

but I wasn't really chasin' it
'cause it's just two scenes.

And like you said, no traum.

He's just a happy, out porn star

who loves to take loads.

But, again, not really chasin'.

Oh, hey. Sandy!

- Baby!
- No. No, no, no.

Please chase that.

Call the producers.
Pl... I beg you.

- Shuli? Oh.
- What?

Shuli, I need to
tell you something

while Lance is in the bathroom.

I know you want
Chase to be dating

Kiernan Shipka, which
makes perfect sense.

But I saw him making
eyes at some normal girl

during the play.

No, no, no, no.

Chase is engaged
to Kiernan Shipka.

He loves Kiernan Shipka.

He wants to go to Sundance

and reveal on the red carpet

he's havin' a baby
with Kiernan Shipka.

Then why is she standing
all alone over there?

If Chase loves her, where is he?

I have to go soon.

My publicist will
be looking for me.

No, wait. One more.

Would you rather have one
big toe or one big tooth?

This is the hardest one yet.

- I know.
- Listen, Brooke,

stop makin' up
drama just to feel

like a part of things.

You're a Shady Lady now.

- Remember?
- No, seriously.

It was a plain girl. She
was eating gummy worms.

Hey, what you guys
talkin' about?

- Oh...
- Trees.

Nothin' but trees.

Kay. Think we gotta go in, B.

- Okay.
- Bye, Shules.

Bye, Brooke.

Hmm.

The air continues to portend.

And it is portending in ways

it has never portended before.

If I thought it was
portending yesterday,

- today it portends...
- Excuse me.

Oh, God, oh, God, oh, God,
oh, God, oh, God, oh, God.

Let's see.

Girl with gummy worms.

There's no way he's... oh.

Holy fucking shit.

Told ya.

Chase, what the hell is...

Oh, God, oh, God, oh, God,
oh, God, oh, God, oh, God.

- Shit, shit, shit.
- Hey.

- This is a disaster.
- I know.

- Chase can't date a normal girl.
- Exactly.

Let's split up,

see if we can find them

- before this goes too far?
- All right.

Oh, this is crazy.

- This is crazy.
- Hello?

Hey!

How's my favorite pro-douche?

Mike? Good to hear your voice.

Yeah. Yeah. This is my voice.

Um, just callin' about
this porn star role

for my client Lucas.

I know I wasn't chasin' it

'cause it didn't have
enough traum-traum in it...

You do always call it that.

Anyway, I changed my mind
and I am chasin' it now.

So what do you say we give
the role to Lukey boy?

Sorry, Mike, I'm
in an AIDS play.

I'm steppin' out to
the bathroom now.

No, no, no. No,
don't step out.

You're good where
you are.

Okay, listen, Mike, I
wish I had known sooner,

but we're circlin' someone else.

Mike? Mike?

Mike, what's up?
What, are you upset?

Are you seriously giving me
the silent treatment right now?

Or are... are you...
Are you threatening me?

Are you threatening me, Mike?

So if I don't give
Lucas this role,

you're gonna tell
people about the girl?

You're gonna tell people
about the girl and the boy

on that boat? This
is a new low, Mike.

Fine. He can have it.
He can fuckin' have it.

Love to Shelly.

Hooray?

- You're so cute.
- No, you're so cute.

Chase!

- Brooke.
- Oh, my God. Okay.

I'm so... I did not expect
to find you in a full bed.

But much love, little bro.

- What are you doin' here?
- I just, um...

I'm here because you
two cannot be together.

I'm sorry, Chase and
whatever your name is.

It's Pam. Pam Snot.

Pam Snot? Is this
a prank on Shuli?

Get dressed at once.

- Shuli.
- My God.

Just think what would happen

if Kiernan's team
got word of this.

I don't care about
Kiernan Shipka, okay?

- I care about Pam.
- Well, that's fuckin' insane.

But if it's true, the best thing

you can do for her is
never see her again.

Now back to your box.

And you, back to orchestra.

Excuse me.

I did it. I got
the role for Lucas.

Oh, my God. I just got cast

in an Adam McKay movie.

Me, Lukas Gage.

No.

He manages two Lucases? Fuck.

I did it. I saved the day.

You okay? Where'd you go?

Oh, uh, just a tree emergency.

But I'm back now.
Won't happen again.

We finally know what it is...

a great big mystery.

Thank you for coming to
"8 Gay Men with AIDS:

A Poem in Many Hours."

How is this about
the AIDS crisis

but there was never any AIDS?

Join us tomorrow for
"8 Gay Men with AIDS:

A Poem in Many
Hours, Part Two."

What? All: What?

Hello. Welcome back.

Welcome back to part two.

Feel like I've spent

more time here recently

- than I have at our house.
- At least tonight

we'll actually get to AIDS.

Or why does the screen on stage

say Germany, 1939?

I... I mean, if they feel

that we need more context
before we get to AIDS,

then, my God, of course.

- Thank you.
- I really appreciate it.

- You got it.
- Hey, um, Lukas Gage?

- Hello. Hey.
- Hey.

Um, so I have a
weird favor to ask.

- Oh.
- My boyfriend

is Lucas Lambert Moy.

Right, yeah, that...
Oof, that must be tough.

Yeah, between the last
couple roles and this play,

we still haven't
been able to fuck.

And even aside from
the sex, right?

So I was wondering
if there was any way

you might, uh, give
up that porn star role

so he could have it?
'Cause if he's playing

a horny, out, gay guy,
then we... we can fuck.

I think I understand.
And I would love to help.

I just... I think I'm,
like, perfect for that role.

Like, underneath these clothes,
my body is... is really good.

No. Yeah, I know.

- I, uh... I Google.
- Oh, thank you.

- Chase, Chase, over here.
- ChaseDreams!

- Hey.
- Wait, who's that?

- Hi.
- This is, uh... this is Pam.

Yo, yo.

- Chase!
- Say cheese, Chase.

What have you done?

Say hi to Pam.

Streeter, we have a code red.

He's here with Snot.

Whoa. What's goin'
on over there?

Uh, h... how would I know?

I was with you all last night

except for that tree emergency.

Let's go watch the play.

Should listen to Shuli

- what she's saying to you.
- Yes.

My God. I do...

Sorry. Sorry, B.

You know, I know AIDS is bad,

but I worked a double
today. I'm exhausted.

That's fine. You
deserve the rest.

Yeah.

I mean, come on, you
don't get to pick

- your girlfriends.
- Hey, guys.

Hey, kiddo.

- How you holdin' up?
- About what?

Me and your mom breaking up.

Oh, that has not
affected me in any way.

Okay, so I assume
that we're talking

- about how Chase can't date Pam?
- Yes.

But thanks to Chase,

they've already
been seen together.

Okay, I've been thinking,
and how about this?

She's a contest winner.

Yeah, there was, like, a contest

to come see a Broadway play

through, like, Dannon Yogurt
or some shit and she won.

Yes.

She's nothin' but a
silly contest girl.

A yogurt-eater.

Brooke, this is
an excellent idea.

Homosexuals are like a...

Like a sort of plague.

- They are a plague...
- I think you're being selfish.

- What?
- It's just you already got

to have your ass ate
in "White Lotus."

I feel like you should let

other people have sex on camera.

I mean, if anything,
you should have to do

- one of these now.
- Sorry. No dice, man.

Okay, how about this?

If you give up the role,

I'll eat your ass

or you can eat mine.

So now you want me to
give up a movie role

and eat your ass?

I mean, it's a good ass.

Okay, no, I'm not calling
Pam a contest winner.

- She's my girlfriend.
- Chase, be realistic.

You can't date a normal girl.

But I like that she's normal.

We're not just
talking how it looks.

Though it does look... cray.

We're talking if
you break up or...

Whoa, why are we
jumpin' to breaking up?

Oh, shit, it's
almost intermission

and Lance'll be up soon,
but I can try and sneak out

- during the next act?
- Yes. I would love that.

- Eee.
- In all of history.

Thank you.

We will now take a
brief intermission.

- How'd you sleep?
- Good. You?

Good.

Good.

Okay. Sorry, sorry, sorry.

- Is there anything on earth...
- Oh, my God.

I can do to make you
give up this role?

Sorry, man. No.

But it was nice meeting you.

I'm actually...
I'm gonna duck out.

This play is just
so long, right?

I'll tweet that you
left.

- What?
- I'll tweet

that I saw you, Lukas Gage,

walking out of the AIDS play.

- You wouldn't dare.
- Really?

I haven't fucked
in months, Lukas.

Who know what I'll do?

Your move, Gage.

Fine.

I'll just stay and watch.

Gentlemen, please.

It has been settled.

We shall call this
land "America."

Wow. 1776.

We're more than 200 years
before AIDS even started.

And remember, you can
leave any time you want.

- I won't say a word.
- Nope.

I actually like
that we're in 1776,

and I'm so excited to see

how it all connects
back to AIDS.

Like, I wanna be
seen as an adult.

What do you mean?

Your bare armpit was
in "Rolling Stone."

Yes, millions of girls,
and let's be honest, boys,

- have seen you as an adult.
- By my team.

I wanna make my own decisions.

So you don't think we
make good decisions?

Shuli, my second
album was released

on the day of the insurrection.

- That's a good point.
- Yeah, that was a full whiff.

Our ancestors' ancestors.

Thank you for coming to
"8 Gay Men with AIDS:

A Poem in Many
Hours, Part Two."

Hey, your hair's
not in your pony.

Oh, uh... must've fallen out

while I was sleepin'
so damn hard

through this AIDS play.

Oh, yeah. Makes sense.

Good thing the play's
over now, right?

Join us tomorrow night
for "8 Gay Men with AIDS:

A Poem in Many Hours,
Part Two, Chapter Two."

Man, what?

Sorry, I gotta work
tomorrow night.

This is your job now.

Welcome back. Good evening.

Here we are. Night three.

Which is fine.
Whatever they need.

Of course. I didn't
say otherwise.

I didn't say you said otherwise.

Good morning, Lukey.

We're in caveman times
now. That's right.

This AIDS play

is at the literal dawn of time.

So you gotta ask yourself,

how does this connect to AIDS?

And more importantly, when?

I guess we'll just
have to wait and see.

Yes, we will.

So if Chase

is going to be with
her, we need to be ready

- to tell the press about her.
- Okay.

Well, Pam, why don't you
tell us more about you?

Like, who is Pam?

Um, my favorite color is purple.

- Okay, what if we kill her?
- Streeter, no.

Chase, what do you see in Pam?

She's kind. She's pretty.

She makes me laugh.
Like, ask them

what you asked me
when we first met.

Okay, would you rather

poop out your mouth

or eat with your butt?

Oh, my God.

I guess
eat with my butt.

That's beautiful, Tiny.

The world is at
once new and old.

- Knowable and yet...
- Wait, who is this woman now?

I don't even know
what time we're in.

That's because they've
stopped doing times, Lukas.

I think we might be
in no time at all.

- Oh, my God.
- No! Look... no.

Streeter, listen.

If you eat with your butt,

you can never go to restaurants.

- Yep.
- Final answer,

- poop out my mouth.
- But then you taste

- poop every day?
- No.

'Cause your tongue
is in your butt.

Ahh. Chase, this
is a disaster,

but I like the girl.
Makes me think.

- Thank you.
- Brooke, shouldn't you get

back inside before
Lance wakes up?

Yeah, yeah. But hang on.

Like, your tongue
is in your butt now,

right, Pam?

Oof, and now she's
starting the Kaddish?

I think we're in for a day four,

maybe even a five.

How do you like
the taste of that?

Okay, fine.

He can have the fuckin' part.

I just... I can't
take it anymore.

I know it's important.
I just... I've seen this

- so many times.
- Shh.

People are trying to sleep.

Fuck.

B?

What the...

Where is the tongue?

- Would it taste...
- The aftertaste

- would be ugh.
- Hey, B.

What's goin' on out here?

Oh, I, uh...

I... I was just thirsty.

Yeah, and I... I came
to get a drink of water

and I... I ran into Shuli.

Are you back in the industry?

No. No.

I do good now.
Remember? I love trees.

Don't lie. You can
tell the truth.

Okay, fine.

The truth is...

I'm having sex with Shuli.

Yeah, it's a Holland
Taylor/ Sarah Paulson thing.

Am I Holland Taylor?

Okay.

- Okay.
- No, wait. Come on.

No, wait. No, come on. I just...

- No. Don't worry about it.
- Lance, I...

- It's all good, B.
- No, I...

Look, I was having
sex with Shuli,

but it's... it's over.

- It's in the past.
- All good, B.

Lance!

Welcome. Welcome
back to day four.

You know,

my boyfriend's in this.

Yeah, he just got
cast in a movie too.

I'm not sure when it films,

'cause he's always in character,

but I'm gonna break
into his email tonight

to find out. Then we
can finally have sex.

Ticket, ma'am?

Maybe it's because
I've been here

for four days,

but that made no sense to me.

Yeah, no, it does make
sense.

Good afternoon. At
today's performance,

the role of Larry will
be played by Rob Moss

because Lucas Lambert
Moy is shooting a film.

Thank you so much and
enjoy the matinee.

Wait, what? It's today?

Oh, shit. It's only two scenes.

Sorry, do you know
where he's shooting?

Well, actually...

Okay, I'm not getting
ready for this AIDS play

until you talk to me.

Like, I don't know what you
want me to say, all right?

Me and Shuli were
sleeping together.

- And I'm... that's...
- Oh, God.

Just shut the fuck up.

- What?
- Enough with the lying.

Just fucking stop
it, okay? Please.

Okay?

Fine. Okay. I just...

I have been embarrassed
to let you know this,

but I don't like trees.

What?

I don't wanna do the tree thing.

Okay? I don't care about trees.

And it makes me feel like
there's something wrong with me

because all these
people that I work with

fuckin' love trees.

But it's just not...
in me or something?

Like... like, I
think I hate trees.

Okay, who gives a shit?

If you don't like trees,

then find something
else you do like.

But that's the problem, okay?

I already did.

Like, I liked being a manager.

But then the last few years,

everyone started trying to find

something more meaningful to do,

but I had just done that.

Being a manager was
meaningful to me.

Like, I liked it. I
was fuckin' good at it.

Then that's great?

No, it's not,
because I can't do it

without feeling
judged all the time.

By who? Who's judging you?

You! You're judging me.

Whoa. Whoa, what?

- Quiet all around.
- Quiet all around.

And we are rolling.

There they are.

I'm here, Lucas!

I'm coming to fuck you, baby.

And cut!

- No!
- That's a cut.

No, no, no. Please tell me

Lucas Lambert Moy
has not wrapped.

Holy shit. What
the fuck is this?

No, it's okay. I'm
totally normal.

My boyfriend is just
always in character

so I'm coming here to have
sex with him real quick

before he wraps this role

and goes back into
this other role

- where we can't.
- Actors make me so sad.

But you're in luck.
The director may need

to go one more time after lunch.

He's gonna watch
playback to decide.

Yeah. Yeah. Great.

Oh, my God.

Yeah, this... this is bad.

Yeah, you can't use this.

Let's just go again after lunch.

- Yes.
- He's happy.

So that's lunch
and a picture wrap

on Lucas Lambert Moy.

What? No!

No, no, no.

Sorry, buddy.

But I... I have to ask,

what exactly was the plan here?

To... have sex
with my boyfriend.

Yeah. But then what?

I mean, doesn't it
suck to never be able

to talk or connect
with him in any way?

I don't know. Could be wrong.

Oh, my God, are you
serious right now?

I'm judging you? That's
what you're tellin' me?

Yes, like, nonstop
while you're off doing

all your brain surgeries.

First of all,
that's not remotely

what nurses do,
and I've told you

a thousand times, I don't
judge what you do, B.

Jesus with this shit.

No, no.
Yes... yes, you do.

You do judge me.

Like, last month,
remember, at the bar,

when you and your
friends were all laughing

and you said that my job can be

"a little dumb sometimes."

- And I quote.
- What?

Okay, if I did say that,

I was probably just
agreeing with you.

Also, all jobs can
be dumb sometimes.

Well, you did. You did say it.

And I just... I can't unhear

- the judgement in your voice.
- Oh, my God.

Give me a fucking break, dude!

You don't feel
judged by me, Brooke.

You don't. And you
know you don't.

You have judgement on yourself

and you're makin' this about me.

I have been nothing
but supportive of you.

You say you wanna be a manager?

I say, "Hell yeah.
That's great.

I love my girl as a manager."

But then you don't believe me.

So then you say
you wanna do trees.

I say, "Great.
Hell yeah, girl,

do those trees."

And then you're mad at me
for supporting the trees.

It's like... it's like I
can't fuckin' win with you.

'Cause you never should have
let me do the trees, Lance.

Like, you know me
better than anybody,

and yet you let me
quit a job that I love

to go plant fuckin' trees?

You should have
fuckin' stopped me.

You kept saying it's
what you wanted.

And it's not my fucking job

to make you be honest with me.

Okay, well, that is a
very interesting point

so... fuck you.

Listen, during the pandemic,

all I did was listen to my gut

and decide to do something
that made me happy.

That's all I did.

You're the one who's makin'
this constantly about you.

You don't care at
all about my job

except how it relates to
you, how it makes you feel.

And it's exhausting,
dude. Like, what about me?

I want a partner
too. I want somebody

to show up for
me, to support me.

Not just someone

who's always thinkin'
about their own bullshit.

And if you do have a problem,

you need to fucking
talk to me, B.

But instead you
spin and you spin

and you dye your hair,

and you sneak out on me.

Like, we're engaged, dude.

I'm your ride or die.

But maybe that's the problem.

You know I'm not goin' anywhere,

so it just gives
you this permission

to just treat me like shit,

to lie to me, to test me,

to always be in your head

instead of just listening to me

or be a good partner to me.

And I deserve that, B,

'cause I'm a good
fuckin' person.

Yes, that's been
made very clear.

Okay, cool.

- Very cool, B.
- What?

That's what you have
to say after all that?

I... well, I'm just saying,
we get it, you're good.

That's all I'm saying.

Okay, well, if we can't talk,

then I don't know
how we do this.

Well, maybe we don't do this.

Okay, yeah. Maybe we don't.

Go fuck
yourself, Lance.

Hey, um, I was curious
if we could talk,

like, out of character
for a second?

I just... the way this
is going now, with us,

isn't working.
People are right.

It's weird I don't actually know

the real you.

So, what, you're gonna leave me

- while I have HIV?
- Okay, no.

No, that's not what's
happening here.

I mean, if anything, I'm
thinking of leaving you

because you don't have HIV.

Also, I thought the doctors said

they "didn't know what it was"?

Stop it.

Lucas?

Was that you?

If you're going, go.

Okay, no. See, I
don't wanna go. Okay?

So what if we do this,

you get out of
character for one night

and we just talk and laugh

and maybe we order pizza.

Do you... do you like pizza?

And then you can just
pop back into character

and no one will be the wiser.

Okay, please? I... I
really want this to work.

So just give me a reason
to stay, I'll stay.

Okay.

I guess I'm gonna go.

You can just let
yourself out whenever.

Oh, flower delivery
for Mr. Lambert Moy?

- Yes.
- Okay, yeah.

Thank you.

"Congratulations on
your Tony nomination

"for Best Actor.

"Think of me for
your future projects.

Your fan, Debra Messing"?

You got nominated
for a full Tony?

Hi.

This is so dumb, but
can I stay here tonight?

Of course.

You always have a
place here at...

"Daddy's house."

The bedrooms are upstairs.

Thank you.

Oh, my God.

Oh, you chose Cary's room.

That's okay. You want
something to eat?

Capri Sun? String cheese?

PB&J?

You know, I... I
will take a PB&J,

if you don't mind.
No crusts, please.

Comin' right up.

It's just... it's over.

I can't believe
it's actually over.

I know.

I... I'm sad your mom and I
broke up, too, sweetheart.
