Previously on The Fosters
Hey, I watched the live-stream earlier.
What the hell were you doing?
- JUDE: Playing the game.
- NOAH: Really?
I couldn't tell there with all the flirting with Declan.
I did have those feelings for you.
- What if I'm gay?
- You need to be honest with yourself, Tess, and with your husband.
Her father is completely unreliable.
He's got a new family of his own, and we have no help here.
We might have to talk about what friends do.
- What?
Friends don't hold hands?
- No.
You used to do that all the time when we were married, you'd forget to breathe.
It used to scare the bejesus out of me.
- Hold me.
- Okay.
Okay, come here.
I am granting a stay of deportation until Ms.
Sinfuego's DACA status is decided.
(RAPID CLICKING)
(VIDEO GAME NOISES)
Oh damn.
She was coming in hot.
Even hotter than usual.
Closing in.
You holding your position, Taylor?
Locking it down.
Hey, Jude, what's your favorite position?
TAYLOR: Like he'd know.
Jude's like olive oil - extra virgin.
- (CHUCKLES)
So, sometimes I kinda like to perch of the shielded skulls in the Elderworld Dungeon.
In the dungeon?
Mmm.
- That's freaky.
- I mean, it is the best place to pick off Krone Elves.
All right.
Guess that's it for today, guys.
We're Two Gay Guys and a Girl.
Hope you'll catch us next time.
But I doubt anyone will after how lame that was.
- (CELL PHONE BEEPING)
- (SIGHS)
Umm, my mom's here, so later.
(DOOR OPENS, CLOSES)
Dude, what the hell was that?
- Were you trying to put everyone to sleep?
- I'm sorry.
But I can't be all flirty like that anymore.
Noah got mad at me.
Why?
It it's just an act for the fans.
It's not real.
(SCOFFS)
Yeah, I know that.
Dude, we gotta give the fans what they want, 'cause if we do, then we get what we want
- like these.
- Whoa.
Where'd you get those?
A fan sent us both a pair.
I get free sh*t like this all the time, and now so will you if you keep playing along.
If you get all serious and boring, we're gonna lose viewers, and Eminent Power's gonna drop us.
So, talk to your boyfriend.
He needs to chill.
- What is this?
- What?
Oh, it's, um, uh, a mild sedative for anxiety.
Went to the gynecologist today for a checkup.
- And?
- And told her what's what's been going on, and since I don't have a history of anxiety or depression she thinks that I may be in perimenopause.
Yay for me.
(CHUCKLES)
Which, you know, hormones can be all fluctuating and there's lots of side effects, one of which is anxiety.
Okay, well, what about what about therapy?
Did you reschedule your appointment?
Uh, what's the point if it's physiological?
Therapy's not gonna help.
(DRYER DOOR CLOSES)
(DRYER CLICKS, BEEPS)
- What do you want?
- I need to talk to you.
I've nothing to say to you.
I want to apologize.
We were told that Ximena made threatening remarks at the protest, radical stuff you know, calling for v*olence, that kinda thing.
It wasn't until I saw the video of her speech at the hearing that I realized we'd been lied to.
- She never should've been targeted.
- What about her parents?
- 'Cause they were targeted too.
- I wasn't involved in detaining them.
Well, her family's basically been destroyed, so just keep telling yourself that.
Look, just so you know, I didn't get into this to chase innocent teenagers into churches.
You know, I thought I was making this country safer.
The things at ICE have changed, agents are being given carte Blanche to go after whoever they want however they want.
It's not right.
So, what are you gonna do about it?
- 'Cause frankly, an apology doesn't cut it.
- I know.
That's why I've got some information I wanna give you.
(THEME MUSIC PLAYING)
It's not where you come from It's where you belong Nothin' I would trade I wouldn't have it any other way You're surrounded By love and you're wanted So never feel alone You are home with me Right where you belong So, apparently ICE has a new mandate to go after undocumented kids who have just turned 18, so they can legally detain them.
- Why?
- CALLIE: To fill quotas.
- MARIA: Gross.
- CALLIE: Anyway, they're planning a raid at a high school this week.
We don't know where or when, but he said he's gonna give us a heads-up when he knows more.
- What does he want us to do?
- Record it.
He wants us to expose everything that's going on.
Okay, so, what?
We're just gonna go and record kids getting detained?
Getting their lives ruined?
Look, we have to help them.
At the very least, we have to warn them.
(POP MUSIC PLAYS ON RADIO)
Good point.
Okay.
So, can we like, get in trouble if we tell them that ICE is coming?
I don't think so.
As long as you don't actually, like, obstruct justice.
Okay.
Good.
Ximena, you just got your stay.
You can't risk being a part of this.
But we can.
MARIANA: I wanna come too.
Okay, I'm late for a study group.
I'll talk to you guys later.
Low-key, Aaron's way cooler than I thought.
- (CHUCKLES)
- So, are you guys still just friends?
- Yeah.
- What are you waiting for?
Yeah.
You think you guys are gonna get back together?
I don't know.
So, your white blood cell count came back, and you're clear of infection, so you're ready to have your "T" cells put back in.
Now, as we discussed, the new cells also att*ck healthy cells, which may affect your immune system, so we're gonna keep a close eye on you after the procedure.
So, if this doesn't work, will her immune system be too compromised to try other treatments?
Or will she able to go back to chemo?
Mom, can we please give this a chance before talking worst-case scenarios?
- I am.
I'm just - MAN: Hey.
- Uh, hi, Dad.
- What are you doing here?
- (PAGER BEEPS, BUZZES)
- Excuse me.
I wanted to be here for Grace's procedure.
Well, a little heads-up would've been nice.
Yeah, I don't need your permission.
Hey.
So You ready for this?
As ready as I'll ever be.
(CHUCKLES)
Hi.
I'm I'm Brandon.
- Grace's boyfriend.
- Sorry.
Hi.
I didn't know you had a boyfriend.
- Hey.
- Hey.
Just wanted to return this to you, so thanks.
You wanna come in?
Everything okay?
Umm Tess asked me for a separation.
- I'm sorry, Dean.
I'm - I mean, I I I love her, and I can't imagine my life without her without Logan.
Why why would she do this?
Wha what'd she say?
Just that she's not happy and needs some time apart to figure out why.
Did she say anything to you?
- I, uh
- I'm sorry.
I don't mean to put you in the middle.
No, no, no, no.
Not at all.
I just I just want to say that I'm I'm I really hope that you guys can work this out.
I do.
I hoped that moving back to San Diego would make things better.
I guess not.
(INDISTINCT CHATTER)
Hey.
Nurse is in there with Grace.
Susan is somewhere.
- Probably plotting my demise.
- (CHUCKLES)
So, Grace tells me that that you play piano.
- I'm a musician, too.
- Oh yeah?
What do you play?
I'm a saxophonist.
I haven't played much lately, not since Grace was little, really.
We used to have our own band.
The Dew Drops.
And we we played many a gig - to sold-out crowds of stuffed animals.
- (LAUGHS)
Yeah, Grace and I are sort of in a band.
Oh yeah?
What are you guys called?
Grandon Canyon.
I told her we have to keep working on the name, but
(LAUGHS)
- Have you guys played anywhere?
- Uh, no, not really.
- Just a bagel shop.
- Ah.
- I'm sorry I missed it.
- Well, you have to come to the next one.
Yeah, I don't know.
I'm not so sure Grace would want me there.
You can go back in now.
I'm gonna you know, hit the restroom.
Why don't you
(FOLK MUSIC PLAYING)
Hey.
Everything okay?
Oh my gosh.
Thank God you're here.
It's been crazy intense.
Please do not leave me with him.
All right.
I promise I won't.
Am I getting warm?
So, the Dew Drops, huh?
Please tell me there's video footage of that somewhere.
(LAUGHING)
My poor dad.
It was basically me just holding him hostage for hours as we played.
God, he was so sweet.
Yeah, he seems like a good a good guy.
Yup, he is.
So why don't you like have a relationship with him?
It's kinda complicated.
(CLEARS THROAT)
When I got sick the second time, my mom got really stressed out and controlling over everything.
I mean, you know how she can be.
(SIGHS)
I don't know.
I just think over time my dad just couldn't take it anymore.
You make me scream and shout So he left?
Mm-hmm.
If you know what I mean My mom was devastated.
And I felt like I I couldn't I felt like if I saw a lot of my dad, it might seem like I was taking his side.
- Or something and I
- (FOOTSTEPS)
Okay, look out - Did he leave?
- Uh, he went to the bathroom.
I'm surprised he ever came back at all.
Henry never could deal with any of this.
and now he wants to be a father.
Declan thinks if we don't keep up the flirting, then no one's gonna watch, and then Eminent Power will drop us.
Okay, then why don't you just talk to Noah, and tell him you're, like, in character or whatever.
You really think he's gonna buy that coming from me?
I mean, maybe if he heard it from someone else.
- You want me to talk to him?
- You guys are friends, - and he trusts you.
- Well, he should trust you.
I know, but he doesn't get gaming or how we're supposed to keep our fans happy.
And I don't want this to go away for any of us.
And I mean, I am kinda getting used to making all that money.
- (LAUGHS)
Okay.

Wow, 62 in Marin today.
I'll alert the media.
So, what exactly are we waiting for?
We're always waiting, Henry doctors, tests, treatment rooms.
Nothing moves fast in a hospital.
So, how's how's Jada?
- Oh, she just had her violin recital.
- (CELL PHONE RINGS)
She reminds me so much of you - at that age.
- You know that she really wanted to come see her big sister,
- but she has school.
- GRACE: Yeah, we text a lot.
Jada is Henry's daughter with his current wife.
GRACE: She was so excited about getting her ears pierced.
(CHUCKLES)
- Her mother wasn't.
- (BOTH LAUGH)
She was pretty angry when I brought Jada home from the mall.
She wanted them pierced so bad, I didn't know what to say.
"No" is always an option.
You can't always say "No" to everything, Susan.
No, I think you have to give your kids some say in their lives, or as soon as they're old enough, they'll move away from you.
(CELL PHONE RINGS)
I'm I'm sorry.
I have to call my mom.
(LINE RINGING)
- STEF (ON PHONE): Hey.
- Hey.
I'm at the hospital.
What's going on?
I, uh I need you to come pick me up, please.
- When?
- Right now.
I'm at the the market on 3rd.
I I don't think that I can drive.
- Why not?
What what's going on?
- (STAMMERS)
I can't!
- Please come pick me up.
- Okay.
Okay.
I'm on my way now.
(BREATHING SHAKILY)
- Thanks, B.
- Yeah.
(SNIFFLES)
I don't know what happened.
I've never felt like that before.
(CHUCKLES)
You don't remember that that time that Dad and I had to get you at the bank?
I was like five at the time.
It was right before you guys split up.
Dad told me that you weren't feeling well that day and that we needed to drive you home.
(INHALES DEEPLY)
I I'm sorry.
I I I I'm sure the last thing you need is another person to take care of.
Go go back to the hospital if you want.
I will be just fine.
Umm it's okay.
I'm here as long as you need me.
Thanks, bud.
(CHUCKLES)
(ROCK MUSIC PLAYING)
I've been looking for a place
- Can I see?
- No.
Why not?
It's not Yeah, it's embarrassing.
You're embarrassed?
I'm the one half-naked.
- Yeah, but you look hot.
- Pfft!
Well, I am more than just a pretty face, you know?
(LAUGHS)
Yeah, I am well aware of that.
Hmm.
No, I I don't want you to be offended, 'cause I made you look so weird.
Look, I will not be offended.
Come on, trust me.
(SIGHS)
Okay, I've never drawn anyone's portrait before.
Oh, so I'm your first?
(WHINES)
Come on.
Uh, this is it's terrible.
- I'm kidding.
(LAUGHS)
- Oh, I hate you!
- That is so messed up!
- Oh, come on.
I had to do it.
- Wow.
- (LAUGHS)
- (SIGHS)
- No, it's
- It's really, really good.
- I don't believe you.
You're a talented artist.
Stop selling yourself short.
So, you're saying it's not terrible?
What?
I mean, you didn't draw my scars.
- Yeah, I I didn't know - How I feel about 'em?
Well, I'm not ashamed of them or anything.
I mean I finally love my body.
(CHUCKLES)
Yeah, me too.
(CHUCKLES)
How do you feel about people seeing this?
Like, if I do put them in you know, I don't wanna out you.
Can I think about it?
- Yeah.
(LAUGHS)
- Thanks.
Jude, you were supposed to fold these, honey.
- (MUSIC PLAYS ON HEADPHONES)
- (SIGHS)
Hey.
- I can blow your mind - What?
- Where'd you get these?
- Uh, a fan.
STEF: You gave out our address?
- No, they sent them to Declan.
- So, Declan is giving out his address?
Mom, we're not stupid.
He uses this wish-list site that lets fans buy you stuff, but blocks 'em from seeing where it gets sent.
Okay, why are people buying you stuff in the first place?
Jude, we talked about boundaries when we first agreed to let you do this.
I don't think it's appropriate for kids to be spending their money buying you gifts.
It's not just kids.
It's adults too.
- That's even worse, Jude!
- And and companies.
People who want to advertise their products.
- All influencers do it.
- You are not an influencer!
You're not doing it!
And you need to tell everyone that watches your show to stop sending you things.
Those headphones are going back to whomever sent them to you.
- Seriously?
- STEF: Yes, seriously!
You cannot imagine what I see at work, young man, and half of it starts with online predators!
Jude, your safety and your privacy are non-negotiable.
And I want access to your chats and your messages, or whatever all that stuff.
And no giving out private information online.
- Okay, I got it.
Jeez.
- Hey.
Sorry.
- Can I please go now?
- Yes, you may.
Okay.
We need to start some dinner.
Uh, we we don't have anything.
I thought you went to the grocery store.
I I I did not have time.
Okay.
No worries.
We'll just order something.
(CELL PHONE BUZZING)
(CLICKS)
- Hello?
- ALLEN: Callie?
- Yeah.
- ALLEN: There's gonna be a raid this morning, Central High on Orange and Bedford.
The targets are three undocumented kids.
- Okay.
Um, what are their na
- (LINE CLICKS)
(PHONE CLICKS)
Mariana.
Mariana, get up.
We gotta go.
- Mariana, there's gonna be a raid.
- When?
Right now.
(INDISTINCT CHATTER)
- IDs?
- AARON: We don't go here.
- We need to talk to your principal, like now.
- Excuse me?
Immigration is planning a raid here any minute.
Please.
Come on.
It's an emergency.
- (RADIO BEEPS)
- I need Principal De Los Reyes to the front.
Is there a way that we can get on the PA and make an announcement?
- You gotta talk to the principal.
- AARON: We're losing time.
Okay, spread out.
We need to warn as many students as possible, okay?
If you know anyone that is undocumented, please tell them that it is not safe to be here.
- ICE is on their way.
- (LAUGHS)
This is not a joke, okay?
This is happening, for real.
Tell everyone you can.
Immigration is targeting your school!
ICE doesn't come to the schools.
- The buses.
- MARIANA: They're not on school property.
Go, go, go.
If you're not documented,
- you are not safe!
- CALLIE: If you're undocumented, they're going to target you!
Get inside!
MARIANA: If you're undocumented, you are not safe here.
- Get inside!
- (SIRENS BLARING)
sh*t.
Anyone undocumented needs to run.
I'm gonna go warn the other bus.
- MARIANA: Immigration is here!
- CALLIE: Go, get inside!
Let everyone know if you're undocumented, it's not safe!
- If you're undocumented, they're going to target you!
- MAN: Hey, stop!
- Hey!
- Cooperate or you're gonna make it worse.
I didn't do anything wrong!
AGENT: Lee Park, you are in violation of Section 1325 in Title 8 of the United States Code.
If any of you are undocumented, you need to leave now.
Why are you doing this?
Okay, what's he done?
Let me go!
I just want to go to school!
- Help me, please.
- Don't say anything, okay?
And don't sign anything until you talked to a lawyer!
Go, go.
Randy Dominguez, stop right there!
Hey, stop!
GIRL: Run, Randy!
Put your hands behind your back.
AARON: What?
What?
What did I do?
- GIRL: Someone help him!
- You're under arrest for obstruction of justice.
I didn't do anything.
Someone shoved me into you.
What are you doing?
You can't arrest him!
Stand back now, or you'll be detained too.
Call Michael Smith at the Juvenile Justice Center.
Tell him what happened.
Hurry!
CALLIE: This is a message for Michael Smith.
It's Callie again.
I just wanted to see if you have an update on Aaron Baker.
Please call me back.
(SIGHS)
(PHONE RINGS)
- Hello?
- AARON: Hey, it's me.
Oh my God.
Where are you?
I'm in a holding cell downtown.
- CALLIE: Are you okay?
- Yeah, um, but I gotta get outta here before I get processed.
(WHISPERS)
They're gonna strip-search me.
Have you heard from anyone at the JJC?
No.
They said it might be a while before anyone gets in to see me.
I won't be safe in Central Jail
(BREATHING SHAKILY)
if people find out.
You know, Grace's procedure won't be done for a while.
Don't you have school?
Yeah, but I got permission.
I wanna be here when she gets back.
Hi.
Hey, so I was just talking to Grace's doctor, and she says that if this initial treatment doesn't work, a second round of gene therapy would actually be a better option than chemo.
Why were you talking to Grace's doctor?
Uh, because I'm her father, - and I have every right to be involved.
- Don't get ahead of yourself.
Where were you the last time Grace's cancer relapsed?
- You didn't get involved then.
- Yeah, because you didn't want me there.
Because you were having an affair with the nurse.
When are you gonna quit rehashing the past?
- That is easy for you to say.
- You need to get a life, Susan.
Stop using your daughter as an excuse for why you haven't moved on.
NOAH: Hey.
Hey.
- So, I talked to Taylor.
- And?
Well, for one, I really wish you would've talked to me yourself.
I knew how pissed you were about the shippers.
I didn't think you'd listen.
It's not the shippers I was pissed about.
I know you're not exactly Declan's biggest fan, but you've seen the douche bags that rule the gaming world.
I mean, don't the gay gamers deserve some good role models?
How do you talk about a feeling when you don't know
- What are you doing?
- Remember when you first came to youth group?
We did that trust exercise?
The first time we held hands.
- (CHUCKLES)
- Yours were so
- sweaty.
- (BOTH LAUGH)
If all these gamers need somebody to look up to I think it should be you.
As long as the flirting is only on-screen, I'm cool with it.
I trust you.
You're the best.
- I know, right?
- (LAUGHS)
(SUSAN SIGHS)
Please don't tell Grace about Henry's affair.
I never told her.
I didn't want it to ruin her opinion of her father.
That's big of you.
You know my mom and dad are divorced, right?
- Yeah.
- Since I was, like, five.
I mean, for a long time I felt really stuck in the middle, you know?
It would've been awful if they made me choose sides.
Wait a minute.
I have never asked Grace to choose sides.
Okay, maybe not, but I I think she sees how hurt you were how hurt you are, honestly.
And I just don't think she wanted to do anything to add to that.
Did she tell you that?
She didn't have to.
- (BOTH LAUGH)
- (ROCK MUSIC PLAYS)
- Let me let me help you.
- No, stop.
If you guys could keep your eyes on the screen, and off each other, we'd be kicking way more ass.
Oh please.
I'm basically carrying noob and noobette over here.
Just check my power ranking.
I just hit that Charzander harder than Declan wants to hit this.
(LAUGHS)
Jude with the clapback.
Yeah, you wish.
I heard you're on vacation And boom!
All right.
I I guess that's it for today, guys.
Stream with us next time for more of this.
- I know you guys can't resist.
- (LAUGHS)
JUDE: That was awesome.
Dude, we just kicked, like, so much ass.
We're basically Eminent Power's GOAT, like, really.
"Greatest Of All Time"?
You are so cute when you're clueless.
All right, man.
- Well, I'll see you later?
- Yeah.
I did a bad, bad thing - I did a bad, bad thing
- (DOOR OPENS, CLOSES)
- What?
- Come on, Jude.
I convinced Noah that there was nothing going on between you two, and that's clearly not what's up.
Declan's into you.
Well, I'm not into him, so what does it matter?
Oh, hey, I forgot.
A fan sent these for you.
- For real?
- Yeah.
Everyone loves the show the way it is, so better not screw it up, right?
Betrayed your trust
- I did a bad, bad thing
- Bad, bad thing
(INDISTINCT CHATTER)
STEF: Aaron.
STEF: Hey.
So Callie talk to you?
Yeah, she's very worried about you.
I want you to know that I've spoken with your lawyers.
And they're doing everything they can.
(WHISPERS)
So then why am I still here?
Because you're being booked.
I will stay with you as long as they will let me, okay?
OFFICER: Come with me.
Listen, I cannot tell you what to do
(HANDCUFFS CLICK)
but I think that you should disclose.
- STEF: Okay?
- Okay.
Umm I'm transgender, and I feel like I'm at risk.
So, you're a girl?
Hey.
Shut your face before I come in there and shut it for you.
- (HANDCUFFS CLICK)
- I won't be safe in a men's prison.
So what are you saying?
You you want to go to a women's prison?
No.
I don't belong there either.
- Okay.
- (RADIO BEEPS)
Uh, we have a situation.
- (MONITOR BEEPING)
- (INDISTINCT CHATTER)
How you feeling?
Am I in heaven?
Because I'm pretty sure
- I'm looking at an angel.
- (LAUGHS)
- BRANDON: You're ridiculous.
- Very funny, Grace.
It was very funny.
Y'all need to lighten up.
(LAUGHS)
You know, my first choice was "I see dead people. "
(GRACE AND HENRY LAUGH)
Speaking of dead people, where's Mom?
She went home for a bit, so you could spend some time with your dad.
- I'll talk to you later, okay?
- Okay.
- Hi, Dad.
(CHUCKLES)
- Hi, Grace.
GRACE: Is that a sweater?
It's so pretty.
- HENRY: Nice color, right?
- GRACE: Yeah.
BOY: I'll get it!
- They booked my friend!
- You were only supposed to document what happened.
We weren't just gonna sit there and watch!
And Aaron was pushed into that agent, okay?
You saw it!
I know you did!
- He was not obstructing!
- What am I supposed to do?
Tell them what really happened!
They're already pretty sure that there was a leak about the raid.
If I suddenly start defending your friend, it's gonna set off alarms.
Someone needs to set off some alarms!
Okay?
I thought that's what we were doing!
And if not, then what was your big apology about?
What?
You feel bad for Ximena, but not bad enough to actually doing something about it.
- Is that it?
- Look, I'm doing what I can.
Look, giving a statement like that could cost me my job.
I've been doing this for 30 years.
I can't just start over.
I've got a family to provide for and a pension to think about.
And I'm not sacrificing all that.
I'm sorry.
Any news?
I just know they booked him.
I don't know where he is.
That's really good, Callie.
And I know you guys are taking it slow, or resetting, or whatever, but I don't care what you say.
You're in love with him.
- (PHONE RINGS)
- Where are you?
I didn't think that I had a history with this, with anxiety and depression, but my my son, Brandon, uh, reminded me that this had happened before when he was little.
Um, it was right around the time that I I left my husband.
I was very unhappy.
Struggling.
Trying to come to terms with my sexuality.
Are you unhappy now?
No.
Mm-mm.
Well, with panic att*cks, it's important to understand the difference between the cause and the trigger.
The cause is usually something deep, some trauma that's been festering for a while.
- (CLEARS THROAT)
- But the trigger is often something very specific.
Some thought or feeling that happens in the moment.
Is there anything that you can think of that happened at the grocery store?
They were out of dark chocolate.
That's (LAUGHS NERVOUSLY)
No.
Nope.
So, what were you thinking right before it happened?
Do you remember?
Uh Right before I went shopping, my next-door neighbor came by to tell me that he and his wife are separating.
- I guess I was thinking about that.
- What about it?
Well, I Kinda hoping that it wasn't my fault.
(LAUGHS NERVOUSLY)
And why would their separation be your fault?
Um Well, his, uh, his wife uh, was an old high school friend of mine.
And they just recently moved back to San Diego.
Uh, next door, as a matter of fact, and um she was, uh, she was my first love.
My first crush.
(STAMMERING)
Anyway, Tess, that's his wife told me that she was questioning her sexuality.
Um, and I said to her that she needs to really talk to her husband.
So, I I guess I uh, I don't know.
Your first love moved in next door.
That's something.
Do you think that that could be triggering you?
No.
(SIGHS)
How'd it go with your dad?
Oh, it was nice.
- Yeah?
- Yeah.
Yeah, he's super sweet.
I just I don't think he's ready to handle my medical situation.
Did you have anything to do with my mom going home?
Uh yeah.
I I I may have talked to her.
You really are an angel.
Thank you.
Hi.
Is this a good time?
Um, I'm kinda craving a root beer.
You wanna get me one?
- Uh, yeah, sure.
- Cool, thanks.
This is the paperwork you asked for.
- Thank you.
- Mm-hmm.
(PAPER RUSTLING)
(GASPS)
So, what happened?
- Did they drop the charges?
- I guess.
Uh, some agent came forward and corroborated my story.
I talked to Allen, but I didn't think he was gonna do anything.
Thank God he did.
I don't think I could have handled much more solitary.
They put you in solitary?
Yeah.
For my own protection.
I'm so sorry.
I remember how awful that is.
Um, it's okay.
I wasn't there long.
Most trans people aren't so lucky though.
I mean, putting someone in solitary because you don't know what to do with them, that's not a solution.
It's de-humanizing.
I hope it's okay that I told my mom.
I just I had to do something.
It's fine.
I'm glad she was there.
Um I was thinking.
Uh I think you should put my scars in the portrait.
Are you sure?
Yeah.
I think I need to, um tell people my story.
So you want to, like, come out?
Telling people you're trans is different than coming out as gay.
When you come out as gay, people see you as being more authentic.
Whereas when you tell people you're trans, people sometimes think that you've deceived them.
You pulled something over on 'em.
I guess I've never thought about it like that.
Mm.
I don't really want to deal with it.
(CHUCKLES)
But, uh if we don't put a human face on this, I don't think anything's gonna change.
Well, I'm here for whatever.
You know that, right?
Yeah.
Thank you.
Maybe I'm unraveling Maybe I'm unraveling slow Maybe I'm unraveling home Ooh, but it calms me Um
(SIGHS)
I went on a date with someone.
Okay.
And if this is us getting back together, then I will never see her again.
But we said we'd tell each other, and So, are we?
Is that what this is?
Um, I Yeah, I don't think I'm ready for us to get back together.
So, you just do whatever you need to do.
Um, it's late and I have homework, so I should go, but I'm really happy you're home.
I just wanted to see you.
