Do you have anything in your pockets, sir?
Any metal or coins?
_
Oh. Uh, I got you, man.
Uh, do you...
have anything...
in your pockets?
_
Okay.
Great.
Sweet.
Do you have anything in your pockets, miss?

- Hi. - Hi. Afternoon.
How can I help you?
Um, we're deaf, so we would like to preboard.
That's not a problem.
Thank you.
Can I see your boarding passes?!
Sure. Here you go!
_
Here you go.
Oh, sorry.
Whiskey.
_
I'll have a mimosa.
Of course.
_
He's over here.
This is Gus, the bookstore manager,
and this is Morgan, your interpreter.
Nice to meet you both.
We're so excited to have you here.
I am a big fan.
I... I can't tell you how much your book means to me.
We need more gay characters
in the graphic novel world, so...
He's just so handsome in person.
But don't interpret that, please.
Just... He didn't hear that, right?
I mean, not hear, but... You know.
Uh, come inside.
I'll show you where it's gonna be.

We're so excited to have Michael Rosen here tonight.
Especially me.
Uh, anyway, shortly after graduating from college,
where he won several awards,
Michael captured the attention of his publisher...
_
in his debut graphic novel,
for which he won a Lambda Award.
Hopefully, we will find out what new adventures
Mr. Rosen has in store for Skip.
- Ladies and gentlemen, - _
I give you Michael Rosen.
_
You, sir.
I loved the love-hate relationship
between Skip and Kenworthy.
It really excited me to see that dynamic
between a hero and villain.
What was the inspiration for that?
I just got lucky.
It was what my editor wanted, and it worked.
Is Kenworthy gonna come back in the sequel?
Maybe. I don't like to talk about my work before it's finished.
It's still really early.
Oh, is Kenworthy based on your fiancé?
Oh, um, just one question each, folks.
Just one, please.
Hi.
I was wondering why your book doesn't have any deaf characters.
It just didn't work for this story.
But why not make Skip deaf?
That seems like that'd be perfect, an easy fix.
It would have been harder to sell.
Wow.
That's honest.
Okay.
If we could avoid the gotcha journalism questions
and respect our guest.
Respect.
Just... Okay.
Did you know that Charles Burns
has a new book coming out?
Yes.
Okay. Good.
There's an emergency in the back.
_
- _ - _
_
Oh, no.
Um, does he not like Charles Burns?
I'm so sorry Michael had to dash out.
He just wasn't feeling well.
No. No, no. We... We understand.
You're a great publicist, by the way.
I'm not actually his publicist.
I'm just his best friend.
Didn't you say you were in P.R.?
Yeah, but I don't have any clients of my own.
I don't feel like I'm ready.
No, no. I think you're ready.
Thank you, but I feel happy where I am.
Ah, good.
Oh, will you excuse me?
_
- _ - _
_
You're not from around here, are you?
_
I've had sex with a deaf guy before.
_
We don't have to talk.
_
Ladies and gentlemen,
please fasten your seat belts.
We'll be leaving the gate shortly.
_
Sir, can you please fasten your seat belt?
Oh, we're deaf.
Oh. I'm so sorry.
God bless.
_
Sir, can you please fasten your seat belt?
We'll be taking off momentarily.
That deaf man is extremely drunk.
_
Just follow me.
Sir, we're gonna need you to come with us.
_
Let's go.
Um, what's the problem?
Ma'am, stay out of this.
We won't have to restrain you
if you just come with us voluntarily.
Sir, can you please tell me what the problem is?
Tell your friend to stand up.
Can you say that again?
Ma'am, you can be removed, too.
_
No. No, I can't write anything down.
Are you serious?
_
- _ - Okay. Okay, let's go.
You can't hold a deaf person's hands like that.
Sir, please do not resist.
_
Come on.
He's just trying to communicate, you fucking audist!
You sit your ass down!
Seat belt.
Uh, seat belts.

I totally saw you signing up there.

Don't tell Kate, ok?
When she has a bad day, she calls you and not me.
_
This is Ben Genovese.
He was the winner of America's Next Top Model.

I'm thankful for kate.
Something you could have said you were thankful for is that...
your fiancée doesn't know that you don't have a job.
All that in there? That's not real.
That's not what I want.
Then what the hell do you want?
I Just want to be there...
for you.
