Ethan Mao

So what do you want to do?

I don't care, whatever

You're easy

Wanna come hang at my place?

Sure. I'll get to play with your dogs

I thought we were going

to your place

Are you okay?

Just relax. Let me do all the work

That was the first time I got f***ed

I never talked to him or

saw him on-line again

Taking it up the ass is

not as bad as you think

You get paid a lot more if you do

It's not as tiring as giving

a blow job or a hand job

This is my favorite position

lying on my stomach

Because I don't even have

to see his face

I was never exactly your happy

suburban kid...

but things took a strange turn...

when I started to explore

my sexuality on-line

That was just about a year ago

when I was still going to school

and working at

my dad's restaurant

Don't forget to lock the door

We're closed

Bag up all the money

Okay, just chill

What's going on?

Give me the cash, now!

Don't look at me, you Jap!

No!

My life started to spin out of control

not long after that night

What's wrong?

Is this yours? Is this yours or not?

Is this what you are?

If I hadn't promised your mom

before she died, I'd -

Then what?

If you're really this

then you're not my son

And you gotta live

somewhere else!

Mom died when Noel was eight

and I was twelve

The photo is all I have of her now

I remember how much she loved

wearing her diamond necklace

It was pretty much the only thing

dad ever bought her

Did you think about

what we talked about?

What?

About you not having a home...

and maybe I could adopt you

Living here will be a lot better

than where you're living now

How was your day?

Two tricks. Bought Chinese food

Yummy

New stuff?

I haven't tried one yet, but they're

supposed to be really good

I'm starving

Teach me how to use chopsticks?

No

When I was a little kid

I saw this kung fu movie on TV

And this guy... he could kill people

by throwing chopsticks at them

It was the coolest

You know it's unlucky

to open a fortune cookie

before you finished eating

What did you get?

"Your prayers will be answered"

I met Remigio a couple of days

after I started working on the strip

I learned all about hustling from

talking to a couple kids on-line

I got paid really well because

I was just the right type

Howdy. I'm Remigio

What? Am I supposed

to pay you a road tax?

Just seen you around...

thought I'd say hi

Are you a cop?

Vice squad. Just kidding

But if I were you

I wouldn't make it so obvious

Don't get dropped off on the street

Thanks for your advice, Remigio

Wanna smoke?

I don't smoke

Come hang with us

I'm tired, hungry and homeless

Will you excuse me?

I'll buy you dinner

Why?

Because I dig you

It's gonna cost you

What are you in the mood for?

How's the sushi?

Good

So you're just gonna sit here

and watch me eat

I'm not that hungry

I'm still a little high

On what?

On E, and a little bit of coke

Ever tried it?

No

I make good money on it

Wow. I guess I'm supposed

to be impressed by a drug dealer

You're a little b*tch, you know that?

Look, I know you're scared

But trying so hard to act tough

isn't going to get you anywhere

Just be yourself

and keep your eyes open

Look, I'm going to pay for this

and I'll leave you alone

Wait

Do you have a place to stay?

Wanna crash at my place?

I'm not going to f*** you

if that's what you're thinking

I know how you feel

I've been there

What's your name?

Ethan. Ethan Mao

Hey, Christina. How are you?

Yeah. I'll be down there

around eleven

OK. See you

Do you want me to come with you?

You really need

a good night's sleep

I feel like doing

a couple more lines

You need your rest

You haven't slept in over a day

Can I ask you a favor?

Tell me about it

I need to get some stuff

from my parents' house

Can you give me a ride?

Sure

I hate straight clubs

I'm so tired, but I can't sleep

I'll come with you

No, just stay here

I'll be back in no time

Is that really necessary?

I've been in some rough situations

Babe, I don't want you

to do anything tonight

From Miss Tina Trade herself

I'm serious

Mao's my mom's family name

Where're you from, Ethan?

Christ Minster. What about you?

Back east. I came down here

because I always wanted to be here

I also came to look for my mom

but it's been three years and

I still haven't found her

Were they divorced?

I was adopted. I never

knew my dad, and my mom...

Well... She gave me up

when I was really young

Last thing I heard was she came

down here to be an actress

Ethan?

I'm so rolling

I can tell

I hope you're not mad at me

I couldn't sleep, so I tried one

It's really good

Oh, Ethan

I miss my mom so much

You're gonna come with me, right?

To my dad's house, right?

I promised

Will be give me a massage?

Do you want to f*** me?

For the things you've done for me

like letting me stay here you know

it's okay if you want to f*** me

I don't care. Just get it over with

I don't want to f*** you, Ethan

I told you that from day one

Why are you so good to me?

Do you remember Rubin?

That big older white guy?

I never told you this

but I was his boyfriend

for almost two years

He deals higher stuff like coke

He set me up to do

what I'm doing now

So what are you trying to tell me?

I had no money, and I didn't know

anyone when I first came out here

I needed to be with him

you know what I mean?

He was completely in love with me
