Screw Brandon to the Sticking Plate: QAF Recaplet 508 07/03/05

by StickyKeys Queer As Folk Episode 508 Aired 7-03-05

That's what I would have done at least, but Brian is a better man than I. Well, he's more of a man than I considering I'm a woman, but you get the idea. Brian "Easley" (blecch) won the boning bet and threw in a lot of really great one-liners in the process. Brandon, not quite as fugly as before I might add, accepted defeat defiatnly, but graciously. Brian has a lot of changes and revelations from friends that are finally speaking their minds and decides not to collect on his bet.

This episode ended up being about 15 shades brighter than I assumed and for that I am thankful, though I found myself making very odd decisions...

1. I too would have arrested Justin. I know, I know, but he took a political cause and used it to fight his personal vendetta which is not fair to the cause, nor advancing it in any way. It's has this "LOOK AT ME!" stench around it.

2. I sure wouldn't have helped that little punk move to the 19TH FLOOR of a gross apartment building with no elevators/kitchen/bathroom/standards. Didn't he make hella Hollywood money? What is this crap?

3. I would have given Justin the bed. I just wouldn't have helped him move it. And I would never visit. Not because it wouldn't be nice, but 19 flights? I would totally turn the lobby into a commons area.

Anyhow, as for the rest of the episode, Ben is still sad mopey dad. He finds a kid that said Hunter was moving somewhere warm (hmm, let's see? 17, No dad, no mom, used to be part of boy's group that he grew out of and now off to live on his own? He's so going to Santa Fe!) which leaves Ben cold until a heartwarming and obviously fake email saying Hunter's okay. Hopefully for Michael this means the "dry spell" is over.

Emmett thinks he has a stalker, but it ends up being Drew Boyd. Drew ran into some troubles and needs Emmetts support to help him Out.

Ted plays loyal side kick this week by acting as a sounding post for Brian, and as a revelation revealer for Emmett.

Deb yells a lot, but we get a good amount of Carl which has boded well for my immune system lately.

Justin's dad (who seriously looks like someone else, is that the same actor?) resurfaces in the War for Hate Prop 14, and has Justin arrested for being gay and outside. As I said I would have arrested him too, but only because I can't stand him. Sorry Petu! Heh heh Angie!


Mel looks more and more like a man everyday, and nearly hooks up with the tallest most weaveriffic woman in the world. Linds is sad because she really wanted her and Mel to be MeLinds again! I do too babe, don't give up just yet!


Overall it was a fun episode with only a few dry spots! I'm looking forward to recapping it, see you later this week!
