A
revelation — Michael has figured out that he's
an asshole. He's not going to give up custody, but he's going
to let J.R. spend more time with her mother, and he wants
to come up with an arrangement that's best for Jenny Rebecca.
Well then. Huh? Okay, good.
Emmett
shows up and announces the return of Ted. He insists that
they tell Ted he's fabulous, so Brian (who showed up just
before Emmett did) starts practicing. A random cute guy comes
in, and Brian says "Oh my god, he really does look fabulous."
Emmett says "That's not Ted" in the cutest way possible.
So
then Ted walks in, and they all gush and tell Ted he looks
younger, which is of course entirely untrue, but Ted buys
it. And then Ted goes off to hit on the cute guy who came
in just before him. And the rest of our guys talk amongst
themselves about how Ted doesn't look that different. The
best Ben can offer is "he looks rested." Emmett
is just glad that Ted feels better about himself, and I guess
that's true: sometimes it doesn't matter if the emperor has
no clothes.
Farewell
— Loretta visits Deb. Loretta is leaving, because
she just can't be around Deb if she hopes to move on. I've
defended Rosie throughout this little experiment, but I gotta
say it: this scene was not easy to endure. Subdued is one
thing, Ro, but emotionless and robotic is not a lot of fun.
Well,
except for the way she looked at Sharon. Again, who can blame
her?
Doing
what's best — Lindsay brings some things over,
now that J.R. will be staying with Mel. And we get a teeny
tiny breakthrough moment:
Lindsay:
"I hope you know I never intended for it to get
so ugly."
Melanie: "That's how divorces
go, especially when there are children. Why would we think
we'd be any different?"
Lindsay: "Because we loved each
other more?"
Mel
just sort of nods, wistfully. Lindsay gives Mel a check for
her half of the water heater.
Sigh.
Dammit. Fuck. That's an order!
Liberty
Avenue — Ben and Michael are walking along;
Michael is reminiscing about his salad days. Ben is wearing
a shirt that says "classic" or something, but the
way his jacket is hanging, it just says "ass."
They
see Hunter, hanging out and smoking pot with his old hustler
friends. They scold him, but he says he'd rather be with people
who accept him for who he is. Michael says, "In case
you've forgotten, so do we."
The
rift begins — Brian is home, and has cleared
his period of enforced celibacy. But Justin has work to do
and doesn't wanna play. Love him or leave him, Justin —
make your choice, but believe him: he loves you, he do and
yet he still just loves to screw.
Justin
is filling in the balloons in a Rage comic: J.T. is asking
Rage when he's going to stop fucking every E.T. that moves.
Rage says (what else could he say?) "never."
Pussy
crack corn! (Apologies to those of you who have never seen
nor heard Margaret Cho. You must remedy that.)
NEXT WEEK ON QUEER AS FOLK: Emmett
crosses the line on his show; Ted gets revenge; Brian competes
for the flavor of the week.
