Ethan quotes from Queer as Folk (US)

Ethan

Look, fans are gonna want to meet me. Women, guys, they're gonna want to talk, to flirt. They're gonna think I'm sexy.

Ethan

The Revel was passable but the Brahms was for shit.

Justin

I didn't notice.

Ethan

Well, you should have, it was all your fault.

Ethan

I thought you were the maintenance guy. There's no heat.

Justin

Sorry.

Ethan

It's okay. Maybe things will warm up now that you're here.

Ethan

She's right, your stuff is the best. So admit it, you're brilliant.

Justin

I'm brilliant.

Ethan

Do you like french films?

Justin

I've never been.

Ethan

Never been? Peasant!

Justin

It's hard enough loving one person.

Ethan

But if you're the one that the other two are in love with, you can break both their hearts.

Ethan

He must love you a lot.

Justin

In his way.

Ethan

But not in yours.

Ethan

Hey, excuse me, sir! You uhh... dropped 100 dollars in my case.

Brian

It says you're starving.

Ethan

Yeah, well, more like a little hungry.

Ethan

At least now I know why you're with him. God, he's beautiful. He must be great in bed.

Justin

Yeah, he is. It's when we're not in bed that's the problem!

Debbie

The new boyfriend. I'm Debbie; I've been keeping an eye on Sunshine ever since he left home.

Ethan

Sunshine?

Debbie

You got a problem with that?

Ethan

No. No problem.

Ethan

Now, why do you have to be so antisocial?

Justin

I'm not antisocial. I just can't stand people.

Brian

You're still working the streets like any other whore.

Ethan

I'm not a whore.

Brian

No you're right. They peddle their asses, you're selling your music. You're, forgive the expression, soul.

Ethan

What the fuck would you know about forgive the expression, soul?

Brian

You should do it.

Ethan

So you can get Justin back?

Brian

I don't want him. I just hate to see someone holding on to their integrity for no good reason.

Ethan

I'd expect you to say something like that. You probably would have played for the Nazi's too.

Brian

If it had kept me alive for one day more you're goddamn fucking right I would. All their asking is for you to play their game. If you're smart, you'll figure a way to play it to your advantage.

Ethan

I'd rather work the street, thank you.

Brian

It's your call. But there's nothing noble about being poor.

Justin

You're a liar!

Ethan

I didn't want to hurt you.

Justin

That is so laughably, so pathetically lame, I am not even gonna comment on it! Try something else.

Ethan

I was- I was covering my ass.

Justin

That's better. Go on.

Ethan

I was alone. You weren't there.

Justin

Now it's my fault.

Ethan

That's not what I mean. I missed you.

Justin

So, since you couldn't bare to be without me for one fucking night, you decide to pick up some drooling admirer?!

Ethan

Basically, yes.

Justin

So tell me, Mr. Gold, as a last minute replacement, how'd he do? Did he kneel at your feet and worship your huge talent? Did he marvel at your magnificent fingering, did the way you stroke your bow leave him breathless?

Ethan

It was one stupid mistake! Look how many times you forgave Brian!

Justin

I NEVER forgave Brian. I didn't have to. Because he never promised me anything. You did.

Ethan

I need you. I don't know what I'm going to do without you!

Justin

I'm sure you'll survive. After all, you still have your music. It's the only thing you ever really loved.
