Justin quotes from Queer as Folk (US)

Brian

Do you like Special K?

Justin

It's okay. I like Cheerios better.

Brian

I don't mean the kind you eat with bananas.

Brian

So what do you like to do?

Justin

Do? I don't know. Watch TV, play Tomb Raider.

Brian

[laughs] I mean in bed.

Justin

Oh. [smiles] This is fine.

Brian

Are you a top or a bottom?

Justin

[hesitates] ...Top. And bottom.

Brian

Oh, you're versatile then.

Justin

And ambidextrous, which was really confusing at first 'cause I can never figure out which hand to throw with.

Brian

[nods] Do you like to rim?

Justin

Sure. I love it.

Brian

Great. Go to it.

Brian

Well?

Justin

Um... What exactly do you mean?

Brian

How old are you really?

Justin

20...19...18...

Brian

What is this, a missile launch?

Justin

17.

Lindsay

We've been thinking of names. Mel wants to call him Abraham after her grandfather, but I like Gus.

Brian

What do you think?

Justin

You wouldn't survive a day in school named Abraham, but I guess Gus is okay.

Melanie

Thank you very much, and who the hell are you?

Brian

His name's... Juh...

Michael

Justin.

Brian

You were on the phone when he shot his load all over me.

Ugh...

Lindsay

Oh Brian!

Brian

He can't help it. He's only 17.

Melanie

So you and Lindsay each had an infant tonight.

Brian

Mine doesn't suck on my breasts... unless I want him to.

Brian

He's going with me.

Michael

Oh, no he's not.

Michael

None of the above. He's going home.

Justin

I'm going with him.

Brian

Good boy. You get an A+.

Brian

What the fuck are you doing here?

Justin

You said I could stay.

Brian

Right. Your parents. They think you're at a friend's. [Rises to sit on the bed, notices the mess in the loft] Jesus Christ! What the hell happened?

Brian

Don't tell me. I was doing handstands.

Justin

And juggling. You're not very good.

Brian

Shit! Why do I do these things?

Brian

I'll tell you why. It was that fucking pig Anita. She told me that was E. That wasn't E, that was some shit they cooked up in a bathtub in Tijuana.

Justin

That's why you should never take drugs that aren't prescribed by a physician or recommended by a reliable pharmacist.

Brian

[laughs] What are you, a public service announcement?

Justin

[talking about Lindsay] She must have really wanted a kid.

Brian

Most women do.

Justin

Even lesbians?

Brian

Lesbians are women. Sort of.

Justin

When can I see you again?

Brian

You can see me right now.

Justin

I mean later, tonight.

Brian

Who knows where I'll be later tonight.

Michael

We better go.

Justin

Please?

Brian

I'll see you in your dreams.

Daphne

Where have you been? Your mom called. I didn't know what to tell her. I said you were still asleep.

Justin

I just saw the face of God.

Daphne

Huh?

Justin

His name is Brian Kinney.

Justin

Guess what I was doing last night.

Daphne

Sleeping? Same as me.

Justin

Having sex. All night. With that guy I met, Brian Kinney. We did it 'til six in the morning... Well, aren't you shocked?

Daphne

Not really.

Justin

Oh.

Brian

I just left a complete stranger in my apartment to come and talk to you so don't run away from me. We need to get something straight.

Justin

You don't do boyfriends.

Brian

Mikey's been talking to you.

Justin

You'll fuck anyone! He's ugly. You don't even know him. And I-- I really thought--

Brian

Justin. I've had you. What happened last night, it was for fun. You wanted me, and I wanted you. That's all it was.

Justin

A fuck?

Brian

Well, what did you think it was? Look, I don't believe in love. I believe in fucking. It's honest, it's efficient. You get in and out with the maximum of pleasure and minimum of bullshit. Love is something that straight people tell themselves they're in, so they can get laid. And then they end up hurting each other, because it was all based on lies to begin with. If that's what you want, then go find yourself a pretty little girl... and get married.

Justin

That's not what I want. I want you.

Brian

You can't have me. I'm too ol-- You're too young for me. You're 17, I'm 28.

Justin

Twenty-nine.

Brian

All right, 29. All the more reason. Now go do your homework. [Walks away]

Justin

Well, then, I'll go to New York. I'll become a hustler and I'll sell my body to gross old homos!

Vic

I'll give you 20 bucks. [Debbie smacks Vic] Just saving the train fare.

Justin

I'm gonna throw up, I gotta vomit!

Debbie

Upstairs bathroom. The one for guests and drama queens.

Debbie

It's not a joke, you know. Gay teens have a very high suicide rate.

Michael

Unfortunately, not this one.

Brian

Look, I told you, I'm not your lover. I'm not your partner. I'm not even your friend. You're not anything to me.

Justin

I could be, if you gave me a chance.

Brian

Where did you learn to talk like that? Watching some teen drama?

Justin

I need you.

Brian

You think you do, because that's what we're taught to think: "We all need each other." Well, it's a crock of shit. You're the only one you need. You're the only one you've got.

Justin

What are you doing? She thinks you're a lesbian.

Daphne

Well, can't I be one of the cool people, too?

Craig

What about AIDS?

Justin

He wore a condom. I put it on him myself.
