David Rose: Um, speaking of your parents, I've been piecing together that I don't think I ever spoken to them outside of work. Is that weird?
Patrick Brewer: Okay. I'm sure you... I'm sure you have.
David Rose: Yeah... Like, they know about me, right?
Patrick Brewer: Of course they know about you, what do you mean? What are you-why?
David Rose: Like they know about "us", right?
Patrick Brewer: [Patrick's face drops, he turns around and sighs] Um... Okay listen, David. I've have been wanting to tell them about us. I really have, I just was waiting to do it in person, and then I didn't go home for the holidays, and then I was feeling so comfortable with you and your family.
David Rose: [upset] Yeah. Yeah, I-I don't know why I assumed, um... So all this time, your parents thought they were just... talking to your... your business partner? Okay.
Patrick Brewer: [emotional] David, I know my parents are good people, I just... Hmm... I can't shake this, this fear that... there is a small chance that this could change everything. That they might see me differently, or treat me differently. But I'm gonna deal with this as soon as I see them next, okay?
David Rose: [Kissing Patrick] Mmmm-mmmm! Okay, what you're dealing with is very personal. And something you should only do on your terms. Okay? That's why I brought this couple home one day in college, and just told my parents to deal with it.
Patrick Brewer: I'm a take-charge guy, David. I like to take charge of things in my life, you know that. You're upset. I would be, too.
David Rose: Yeah. Uh, it's not about that. You're gonna laugh yourself right out of the closet on this one. You know how you've always wanted a surprise party?
Patrick Brewer: David, I don't think this is how surprise parties work.
David Rose: Yeah, I know, it's just... part of that surprise was inviting... your parents... here.
Patrick Brewer: What?
David Rose: Yeah. I realize that was a big mistake. I should've talked to you.
[looking nervous]
David Rose: I could be just your business partner tonight. If that will help.
Patrick Brewer: No, David. I, I can't have you do that. I owe it to us to tell them. I want them to know.
[laughs]
Patrick Brewer: Yeah, maybe this whole thing is a blessing in disguise, huh? It's at the cafe?
David Rose: Yeah. The salmonella was a decoy.
[David kisses Patrick on the side of his head]
