12x10 - Secret's Out

[bunniefuu]

[theme music playing]

-[woman] Ow!
-[Arissa] This is the true story…

-[all] True story…
-[Frank] Of seven strangers…

[Trishelle] Picked to live in a casino…

[Alton] …work together
and have their lives taped…

-[Brynn] …to find out what happens…
-[Steven] …when people stop being polite…

[Irulan] …and start getting real.

[all] The Real World: Las Vegas!

-[Arissa] Baby, yeah!
-[all laughing]

[upbeat music playing]

[telephone ringing]

[telephone ringing]

-[Irulan] Hello?
-[Gabe] Hello?

[Irulan] You down there?

[Gabe] Yeah, I'm down
by the bar called Rousseau's.

Okay, I'm coming to get you.

[elevator dinging]

[upbeat music continues]

[Irulan] Gabe is an amazing,
amazing person.

He's, like, my best friend,
like, my other half.

-[laughs]
-Yo.

So this is where we live.

[Irulan] I really don't want to lose him.

And Alton and I, you know, had kissed.

[elevator dinging]

[upbeat music playing]

Just me and you, baby.

[Alton] Knowing that Irulan
may or may not tell Gabe

really makes me nervous.
It would just be better to know

that he's gonna know
or to know that he's not gonna know.

That's why I didn't want anything
to [bleep] happen because…

that's stupid.

I don't know why you consider yourself
so involved in it. Really.

Because it's like, I understand you
not wanting to hook up with her

because it'll cause drama
in the house later

if you hook up with another girl.
That I understand. I think that's--

-And even, like, with--
-But with Gabe? I mean,

you don't know that [bleep] guy.

-Well, I don't know him at all.
-[speaks indistinctly]

The thing is, like, that's her girlfrien--
That's her boyfriend.

Like, we hooked up, like,
the day before he came here, like--

[Frank] Yeah, that's her problem totally.
That has nothing to do with you.

If anything, you're being
the good guy about it,

because you were the one
pushing her off.

Like, a lot more would've happened
if it wasn't for you.

Like, if you had my feeble brain

-in your head…
-[chuckles]

…my God, you guys
would've had so much sex.

-[Alton chuckling]
-[chuckles]

One of my… One of Alton's golden rules
that, you know, he…

I don't mess with a girl
that has a boyfriend.

[upbeat music playing]

I think he's strong
for not hooking up with her,

because he was telling me
how sexy he thought she was.

-So I was like, "That's cool."
-He has a crush on her.

But now he's, like, being upset
about Gabe and everything like that.

I was like,
"Yo, if anything, that's her fault."

I was like, "That's her deal,
and she should be upset about that."

-He does have a little crush on her, too.
-Yeah.

"If anything, you were the good guy."

"Nothing would've happened
if she had the same mindset that you do."

"You-- If anything, you pushed her off."

Well, that,
and Gabe knows she's telling people

-that she has an open relationship.
-Yeah, exactly.

Well, they do. So I guess this is okay.

I don't like the idea
of an open relationship.

It's awful.

I know Irulan has an open relationship,
but I know her boyfriend

doesn't want it to be that open.

[upbeat music playing]

Nice to meet you. That's Frank.

-[Frank] And run with it.
-And the Black guy…

and the Black guy's…
that guy's Frank,

-and the white guy's Alton.
-Oh, right.

-How you doing, man?
-Long time.

Yeah, long time, no see. Yeah.

I'm a little bit nervous.

But at the same time,
I'm, you know, I'm fine

-with, like, talking to him.
-[clink]

-[Gabe] Y'all are working on your game?
-[Alton] I don't have to work on my game.

Like, I have no game. You want to play?

-[Gabe] Well, I have no game no game.
-No, well, good…

[Alton] The only reservation
that I have would be

just the fact
that it was gonna cause some conflict

between him and Irulan.

[smooches]

[telephone ringing]

[Alton's mom]
How's your roommate situation going?

How's it going living there
with strangers and everything?

Remember I told you
that there's a roommate

-that I kind of have a crush on?
-[Alton's mom] Yes.

You'll meet her. Her name is Irulan.
She's really beautiful.

-[Alton's mom] Is she really?
-And, yeah, just the other night,

-she came and molested me. [chuckles]
-[Alton's mom laughing]

My mom is my best friend.
She's, like, my alpha and omega.

Then tonight her boyfriend comes out
from New York, comes out.

And it's just like, "Why's she gonna
do that the night before?"

'Cause I didn't.
I kicked her out of my room.

My relationship with my mom
cannot get any better.

I don't think you can be any closer.
I can tell my mom anything, you know?

I think it's awesome.

How's everything with, you know,
the Jon and everything…

-With the trial and everything? Any news?
-[Alton's mom] Well, well…

-I've been thinking about that a lot.
-[Alton's mom speaking indistinctly]

[gentle music playing]

Nine years ago, my little brother Jonathan
was riding his bike with my best friend,

and they were both abducted
and m*rder*d.

They just found the k*ller recently.

The initial proceedings of the trial
have already started.

[Alton] How do you feel about that, Mom?

[Alton's mom] I said I feel like
they should stick to the law.

The law say, "You m*rder*d two people.
They're children. It was a sexual crime."

"You get the death penalty
when you do these things."

-Yeah.
-I just feel that's what he should get.

[Alton] It's a death penalty case,
so they can be appealed up to three times,

and it can go from ten to 20 years.

I mean, this case could go on
for the rest of his life.

That would win him…
I just would want you to know

that I support you and always love you.

-[Alton's mom] I love you too.
-I miss you, Mama.

[Alton's mom] I can't wait to see you
this week.

-[Alton] I know.
-[Alton's mom] I'm probably coming out

-by myself, though.
-[Alton] Okay, that's…

-I'd rather you do that.
-[Alton's mom] Okay, great.

[upbeat music playing]

I can't wait till I see my mom.

-[Gabe] Soon enough, man. Tomorrow.
-Yeah, tomorrow.

It's too far away.
Like, I just want it now, like…

[Gabe] Yeah, y'all are gonna have
to be well behaved. I'm shaking fists.

-No, my mom knows.
-For real?

She knows everything
that's happened out here.

If she don't now, she will soon.

-[chuckles]
-[Alton chuckling] Yeah.

I don't think that he knows
I hooked up with the girl he loves.

Like, you know for a fact
that you can trust Irulan, right?

[Gabe] Yeah, yeah.
We have a very trustful relationship.

That's one of the reasons I'm able
to be like, "Yo, do your thing."

-Know what I mean? We got love, so…
-[Alton] Yeah, yeah. Yeah.

-…do what you need to do.
-I mean, she's a beautiful girl, but…

She's really awesome.
Like, she's an awesome girl.

Yeah, she's a good kid, man.
I love that girl.

She's gorgeous.
She's very beautiful, very intelligent,

all the good stuff.

If Irulan doesn't tell Gabe
that we hooked up,

if it was to be a problem,
it would be Irulan and Gabe's problem.

[upbeat music playing]

You haven't done anything
that's gonna make your grandmother

keel over and die, have you?

I'm a little apprehensive
about coming clean

about the whole Alton kiss thing.

And you ain't getting down
with no dudes?

I kissed somebody, but that was it.

-And it was very innocent.
-You sure?

Yeah.

I don't want to make Gabe
feel uncomfortable

or upset about anything.

I don't want there to be any surprises.

I don't want you to feel
like you're in the dark about anything.

I love you. I know
that we have this open relationship,

but, you know,
I respect you even out here.

I love Gabe, and he's so good to me,
and he understands

and everything, and I just…
I don't want to put him in a bad position.

I flirt, I won't admit that. But, like…

I love you very much
and I would not jeopardize what we have.

[upbeat music playing]

[Alton] When I first see my mom,
my mommy, I just feel good.

I just know we're gonna have a lot of fun.

-How are you?
-[Alton] That's Arissa.

-This is Irulan.
-Hello, we've heard so much about you.

-Thank you.
-So glad you landed safely.

-[Alton] Yeah.
-Oh, you poor thing, you need to eat.

-[all laugh]
-My mom calling you--

-No!
-[Alton] My mom got jokes.

Milena is just so radiant
and so young and so beautiful.

-Look at this. We have, like, a 420-foot--
-[Milena] What is this?

-[Alton] This is a drop.
-[Milena] Oh.

[Alton] The swimming pool
if it wasn't so dirty--

[Milena] Don't stand on there.

You know I'm not afraid of heights,
I climb rocks.

-[Milena] Oh, my God.
-[Alton chuckling]

And then you have our…
There goes… Your New York…

New York's right there.
See the Eiffel Tower over there?

[upbeat music playing]

I don't know if you can see,
but it's cold. Let's go inside.

One of the guys said
that you didn't look like a mom.

-I'm a mama.
-You look really beautiful.

Well, thank you.

That's why I look pretty,
'cause I'm a mom.

-[Trishelle] Very pretty.
-Six kids'll make you look like that.

-[Trishelle chuckles]
-[chuckles]

-Alton looks just like you.
-[Milena] He does.

Oh, my goodness. It's so ridiculous.
[chuckles]

[Milena chuckling]

I love Milena. She is the coolest lady
on Earth,

and I want to call her every single day
and take her as my mom. She's so nice.

-Okay.
-I want to give you a hug.

I'm just so happy there's an adult around,
like a mom.

-I'm just like… [sighs]
-[Steven] You know what?

You did a good job raising your son.

-[Trishelle] I told her that. [chuckles]
-[Steven] You should be proud.

-I am.
-He's a very good guy.

I'm very proud of my baby.

[Irulan] Milena has so much pride.

Her son, "That's my baby."
Like, she just… She was so cute.

I just wanted to eat her up.

See, Alton's lucky.
He has lots of, you know…

-[Milena] Lots and lots of family.
-…family. That's nice.

-[Frank] Yeah, I'm an only child.
-[Milena] Are you really?

Well, my parents couldn't handle
any more.

[all laughing]

-[Steven] Look at him.
-I came along like…

[high-pitched gibberish, chuckles]
…I was like,

"Just give me some chocolate.
Just a Snickers bar and I'll be okay."

And they're like, "Whoa, whoa, whoa!
One's enough for us."

-[all laughing]
-[Frank] She's prettier than you are.

[Trishelle] Y'all look like brother
and sister, not mom and son.

[Steven] I know,
I thought Alton hooked up.

It's because he's old.

Milena is just so cool
and she's so proud of her son,

so proud of her boy.

And that was the cutest thing
I've ever seen in my life.

["Maybelle" playing]

♪ Am I still the one ♪

♪ You wanted me to be? ♪

Just go make the coffee.

-Irulan, you hate me now?
-[Irulan] No.

[gentle music playing]

-[Gabe] You want some coffee, man?
-Yeah, yeah.

-You drink yours black?
-No.

-[Alton chuckles]
-I just hope it's still hot.

[Alton] I feel like I'm cool with Gabe,

and I don't think
that Irulan has told Gabe.

Yeah, we planned on going climbing
this weekend or something.

-[Gabe] Yeah, Red Rock.
-Yeah, yeah. You said Red Rock.

[gentle music playing]

[Irulan] We're hitting the open road!

I'm really excited to go to Red Rock

and really just spend
quality time together.

-Ow.
-[both laugh]

[smooches] You knocked me
in the head. Get back!

[chuckling]

Look in the book and tell me
what is close to Red Rock.

What's close to Red Rock.

If we have to get all the way here
and turn around,

I'm gonna be pissed, though.

I don't think that many men could be him.

He's amazing,
and we're just really well suited

because a lot of his strengths
are my weaknesses and vice versa.

It's on 15.

I asked you if we were going to 15.

I thought we were going to Red Rock area.
I think they're all in the same place.

All right, well, look in the book
and find a place to fling.

-You're really driving me crazy now.
-[chuckles]

[Irulan] I love a million things
about Gabe.

He just… He really understands me,
and he accepts me for who I am.

[Alton] Ma.

-Alton, Jonathan, Michael.
-[Milena] You're so cute.

[instrumental music playing]

[Alton] When my brother was abducted,
he was nine years old,

and I was about 14 years old.

-So, you said the district attorney--
-[Milena] Oh!

You said the district attorney opted for…

-Yeah.
-…to go for death penalty.

Yeah.

I have to sign those papers,
and it's just in case I'm a…

they need to call me up
on the witness stand.

What, do you want me to write "yes"?

Yeah, mark, "yes…" [sighs]
…that you want to be notified.

[Alton] In this situation,
I'm for the death penalty.

If he's sentenced to death,
I'm gonna go see it happen.

-Gosh, come on.
-[chuckles]

Just one more last mama love
before you go home.

-[chuckles]
-Could you?

-I love you, baby.
-I love you.

She's not only just a mom.
She's, like, a good mom.

She's a loving mom.
She's, like, an open, caring--

-[Milena] Love you.
-[Alton] Love you.

[Milena] Mm, mm.
You be good to your roommates,

and tell them all I said bye,
and tell them I said…

[upbeat music playing]

[Alton] Gabe's really cool.
You know, he's a cool person.

I'm gonna feel a little weird
because of what happened.

I want to forget it ever happened.

It really makes me feel, like,
uncomfortable.

Honestly, I don't even want
to be around her.

[Steven] You know why? You know why?
Because you've met her boyfriend,

and you like her boyfriend,
and now you're [bleep] Gabe.

Even though you're not doing
anything wrong because she--

-Yeah, but I did. But I'm [bleep] Gabe.
-No, I know, but Gabe says…

But she's putting it on you, though,
remember that. She put it on you.

When girls do stuff like that,
it's like straight out of a soap opera.

It's like this little evil thing
that somebody's doing.

I talked to Gabe,
and I just kind of take a deep breath

and tell him, you know,
that Alton and I have kissed.

Gabe taps me on the shoulder
and asks me to go over

and clear something up.

-Yo, I'm sorry, but you know that.
-No, no, just on the straight.

Gabe wanting to know the details
and asking

for the specific things that happened.

[Alton] That happened the day you came.
So it was actually…

[Gabe] The day before?

-[Alton] Oh, my God, yeah.
-[Gabe] For real?

Told me that he was fine with it
and everything,

but at the same time, you know,
I see him being a little bit angry.

[upbeat music playing]

[Alton] Irulan knows that there's gonna be
some certain consequences

and repercussions.

There's gonna be some things

that her and Gabe are gonna
have to talk about.

[upbeat music playing]

[Irulan] I already admitted to you
what happened.

I told you that he rejected me…

Gabe asks me the logistics

of the circumstances
behind me and Alton kissing.

I just didn't anticipate
that you were gonna come here

and have any of your own feelings.

Like, I didn't anticipate
that you were gonna come here

and make things harder for me.

I know that Gabe is confident
in our love and that he trusts me,

but I think that the whole Alton thing
kind of throws him for a loop

just because he's a roommate.
He's pretty good-looking.

That makes Gabe feel a little threatened.

Like, I love you, and I'm good to you,
and, like, we have an open relationship.

So, like, why are you calling me out
and, like,

discussing this with my roommate?
Like, I didn't have to tell you [bleep].

-[Gabe] Yes, you did.
-No, I didn't.

Our open relationship is on
a "don't ask, don't tell" kind of policy.

If Gabe wants to know something,
then I will answer his question.

Baby, I'm out here all by myself

in Sin City in a house where everybody
is hooking up every night.

-[Gabe] I know, and the thing is--
-And I had been without you for so long.

I'm feeling really, really frustrated

because I really need Gabe
to be supportive

and to give me love

and to not let his ego
get in the way of,

you know, what I need right now.

Come here.

I don't want to say I'm a spoiled brat,

but I'm kind of accustomed
to getting my way

and to having things done
the way that I want them done.

[upbeat music playing]

[Alton exhales]

[exhales]

[exhales]

[Alton] It's good for me
and very therapeutic for me to rock climb.

I feel I meditate through climbing.

Had the biggest crush on Irulan
since I first seen her.

This is the epitome of, like,

at least with looks and with body
and the mind,

it's exactly what I want.

I'm glad that we resolved
the whole Alton thing.

-I'm sorry if you were feeling awkward.
-Oh, no, I wasn't.

I thought I got the sense

that you guys had something
between y'all, so…

I mean, I think if anything,
Alton was just worried

about how you were gonna take it,

but the two of us
are very platonic and I don't know.

It may not make him feel
100% comfortable.

But at the same time,
I know that he accepts me

and he loves me more than, you know,
a kiss between Alton and myself.

[melancholic music playing]

-Okay, I love you.
-[Irulan sobs quietly]

[inhales]

I love you, baby.

I love you.

-Have a blast, okay?
-Okay.

-Speak to you soon.
-[Irulan] Okay.

Feels really good to see him off
having worked through everything,

and knowing that Gabe and I
are strong enough in our relationship

to really overcome anything
that we put our minds to.

[upbeat music playing]

There you are.

Hey.

You want to sit outside so I can…

[Alton] There were some things
that I was seeing in Irulan

that totally was, like, "I don't even want
to hang out with her." Now, I'm back.

Like, I really am. [laughs]
She's dope, yo.

She, like… She's really, really cool.

[indistinct chatter]

He wanted me
to give you his address and email.

-[Alton] Really?
-So if you ever come, he's like,

"I want to wild out with the real Alton,"
like…

[Irulan] Alton and I have
a sort of connection.

I don't know where it's gonna end up.

So, your boyfriend's gone.
He's a good guy. I like that.

[Frank] I don't think Irulan
is completely in love with Gabe.

I think they've been going out
for so long,

they're afraid to totally break it off.

Are you still trying to go
to this house party, or no?

-Yeah.
-You are?

[Frank] Irulan should make a decision.
If she really wants something from Alton,

she should try things with Alton
because that'd be terrific.

[both laugh]

[upbeat music concludes]
