Dorian Blues Page #2

Synopsis: Coming-of-age. A small-town young man realizes why he's such a misfit - he's gay! Adolescence is proving a pain for the always-thinking Dorian. He's an outcast and the butt of classmates' fag jokes at high school. He's different and understands why when he reaches the conclusion that he's a "stereotypical gay." He soon announces this discovery to his homophobic, Nixon-loving dad. As Dad throws him out of the house, Dorian's off to NYU to encounter a new world of coffee houses, sophisticates and handsome men.

with a part-time social worker...

...with a few issues of his own.

You mind if I drink?

U h, no.

We're not, you know,

really supposed to drink.

Look if you're having

a bad day, I...

I am having a bad day,

because this morning...

...my girlfriend and

I of two years... Split.

Oh, I'm sorry.

You wanna know the truth?

I think after the

initial shock wears off...

I'm really gonna see this

as a blessing, really.

Because this woman was

on my case from day one.

I mean making demands

and nagging me and...

...you know what she wanted

me to do last week?

She wanted me to enroll

in one of these... Uh...

...what do you call it...

anger management courses.

How'd you feel about that?

Pissed me off.

Because it's not about anger,

it's about changing me.

You know, about

changing my clothes...

...and my friends and my... You

know, I have a motto, alright?

If you're not happy with me,

exactly the way I am...

...then you can leave.

- So she left.

- Yeah she left.

Anyway, what can we at the

Family Mental Health Clinic...

...do for you today?

I heard you can provide

low-rate therapists?

Maybe someone who specializes

in sexual orientation issues.

Sexual...

Someone who thinks

he might be gay.

Oooh.

Hmm... Here you go,

a Doctor Mitchener.

Therapy for... what you got.

- Is this the lowered rate?

- Yeah.

I guess I can't

afford therapy.

Totally overrated

anyway, believe me.

Look pal, whatever's

bugging you...

...just hash it out with

someone in your own life.

That usually works.

- Really?

- Yeah.

Well I suppose I could

try talking to my mother.

If you're mother's a good thing

in your life then that's great.

Mine wasn't in mine.

But then she died.

Things are looking up.

- Mom?

- Yes, sweetie?

I need to talk.

Then you sit right

there and talk.

Thank you.

- What are you doing?

- Seeing what we're out of.

I can do this and

listen to you.

Talk to me.

Mom.

Mom.

Mom, I'm afraid I'm different.

God made us all

different honey...

...to keep life interesting.

- You, he made moody.

- That's not all he made me.

Look Mom, I've gotta face it.

I'm not like the

other guys at school.

You never wanted

to be like them.

You called them Neanderthals.

True, I didn't want to be like

them but maybe I wished...

...too hard because now

I'm not like anyone.

I find myself envying

the Neanderthals.

Well, you know how

I feel about envy.

Envy's not the point.

Ok, just one second now

let me as you something.

- OK.

- Let me just ask this.

All right.

Last week I bought chocolate

chip cookies and nobody ate them.

Should I not get chocolate

chip ever again...

...and just stick with oatmeal?

Is that what you're
