Freak Show Page #5

Yeah, you know, Billy,

I appreciate it,

I... I do

but, I'm not, I just,

I really... I really

better get going.

Bye.

Holy..

You're an expressionist.

Huh, I see.

Well, yeah, I'm not

a total caveman, Billy.

You know, when I saw this,

this was part

of an exhibit

at the Met in New York.

Yeah, it was on loan.

Daddy likes to spread the wealth

but not the hugs and kisses.

I told my dad that

I was gonna go see a Mets game.

And he bought it.

Oh, were these

the extra glitter?

- I love it.

- You like it?

Okay, so, I have

to tell you about school

because, literally

literally everybody

is talking about you.

And you are a hero.

You are a martyr to the cause.

They had an assembly

at school

about hate crimes.

And a sensitivity speaker

was brought in

and she talked about tolerance.

She showed a movie

and everythin'.

A movie? Yeah, well,

that'll show 'em.

No, all those guys

who beat you up,

they got expelled.

On the spot.

Just like that.

The school now has

a zero-tolerance policy

on all hate crimes.

And it's because of you,

really, it is.

Well, whatever I can do,

I will do.

Okay, so, Flip Kelly

beat the crap

out of Bernie

the day after you were attacked

because he was laughing

about how you'd gotten

your ass kicked.

And Lynnette Franz!

She broke up

with Bo-Bo Peterson.

But nobody knows why.

Okay, did you hear

about Sesame Blixton?

No, but tell me or I'll die.

Okay. She got a boob job.

Monster snoobs.

As a 17th birthday present

from her dad!

Right? I know!

Why! Ah!

Apparently, she got

the boob job to get

Flip's attention

because she wants

to ask him to homecoming.

So how's he doin', ma'am?

A little tired but..

- Well, look who's back.

- Hey, Billy.

Actually, I, uh, gotta go.

- Feel better, Billy.

- Okay.

Come on, uh, honey,

I'll show you out.

Hey!

What'd you say your name was?

What's her name again?

I have no idea.

She's my very best friend.

Whoa, whoa, whoa,

I thought I was. Hmm?

Who's been comin'

over here everyday

like he said he would?

- You have.

- Hmm.

But, you spend all your time

in the drawing room

or talking about fly fishing

with my father, so..

I know, I love it!

I can't believe

the dude hates football.

It's the only thing

we have in common.

Do you hate football?

What?

No.

Who could hate football?

Well, except you two.

I don't know,

I just don't love it

as much as everyone thinks I do.

You're leaving skid marks

on daddy's new runner.

He's gonna freak out

when he sees the mess

that you have made, young man.

What's that Goddamned noise?

Oh, ha-ha, Flip!

Here.

- Hey.

- Hey!

- Let me give you

a hand with that.

- Oh, thank you.

That "that" is your son.
