DebbieDon't pick up any strangers!
Unless they're hot.
Margarita Lopez.
Excuse me?
Margarita Lopez. Was a transsexual. She was murdered five years ago. Her killers have never been found.
The Pittsburgh PD does it's best to solve every crime; however, there is always the occasional-
Jefferson Proctor.
Jefferson Proctor. Was a gay African-American. Shot to death half a block from Woody's. Crime unsolved.
Natasha Ginsberg.
Natasha Ginsberg. Age 61. A lesbian out walking her dog. Stabbed to death. Killers still at large.
Justin Taylor.
Justin Taylor. My beautiful gay son. Attacked at his prom, left for dead, police reported it as a simple assault, instead of a hate crime, which it was. His attacker got off with community service.
Ladies and gentleman, I want to thank these concerned citizens for reminding me of the violence that threatens and sometimes claims the lives of members of this community; however, the vast majority of violence crimes are solved and the criminals apprehended.
Debbie [holds up a poster of Jason Kemp]: What about him? Did you do your best for him?
I remember that boy. His murder was tragic, someone so young.
DebbieThen what was his name?
I may not recall his name but I do know-
Jason Kemp.
DebbieHis name was Jason Kemp. And the reason you don't remember it is because no one on your police force was ever able to find out what it was. But I did! The waitress who found his body in a dumpster behind the diner where I work. Jason Kemp AKA Dumpster Boy! Murder unsolved.
DebbieI brought tuna macaroni. It was your favorite as a kid.
No it wasn't.
DebbieDon't argue with me; you fucking loved it!
You were right.
That's my three favorite words after nine inches cut.
DebbieAbout what?
The cream.
DebbieWhat did it turn?
It matches that found in Jason Kemp's rectum.
DebbieFor your information I just poured it!
Cops in the streets, cops in the bars, cops in the clubs... it's fucking depressing.
Unless you're into cops.
[They kiss in front of two cops]
DebbieWhat are you two doing?
What does it look like we're doing... we're cop-ulating!
DebbieThis establishment reserves the right to refuse service to anyone. And that includes anyone who has not performed the single most important act expected of each and every American?
Anal sex?
DebbieIt's been three days! Three fucking days and not one fucking word! … except for this strange cryptic message 'Don't worry, Ma. I'm all right.'
Doesn't sound strange or cryptic to me.
DebbieIt's the first time since Michael's learned how to pick up a phone that we haven't talked three times a day.
Three?
I know... it explains so much.
DebbieAre you ready to find your inner fairy?
When I do I just hope he looks more like Tinkerbell than Captain Hook.
[Discussing the latest issue of Rage]
DebbieGratuitous man-sex is one thing, personally I don't mind it...
We know.
DebbieBut gratuitous violence, that's another story.
Actually, I don't consider it gratuitous. In fact, I'd argue that disturbing as these images may be, they are a legitimate expression of every gay man's outrage of being victimized and therefore can be justified as a passionate and uncompromising work of art.
There's only so much fucking your brains out one can do.
Debbie… you have a temperature, honey?
DebbieHow was your last trick?
Big dick... teeny brain.
DebbieThe best kind!
[Emmett and Debbie move in together]
Now she's living in sin.
DebbieOr right across the hall from it.
Vic was on his death bed four years ago. All this was gravy. We knew that.
DebbieWhat did you say?
Going this way... could have been a lot worse. If you ask me he was fucking lucky.
Debbie[slaps Brian] Nobody fucking asked you. And who the fuck are you to decide how long he should have lived?
The truth hurts.
DebbieGet this shithead out of my house.
DebbieI can't tell if these branches are tops or bottoms.
You gotta ask another tree about that one.
