While homosexuals Stuart (Aidan Gillen) & Vince (Craig Kelly) are at the
funeral of their friend Phil (see episode
3), Nathan (Charlie Hunnam), Stuart's schoolboy one-night-stand who
wouldn't go away, seduces a classmate, but is rather disappointed when even
he later would dismiss him for being gay. Meanwhile even Nathan's mother
(Caroline O'Neill) has noticed there's something queer about her boy (in every
sense of the word) & tires to talk with him, upon which he walks out on
her, even though she has enlisted the help of Nathan's best friend Donna (Carla
Henry) to make it easier on him ... In the end, Nathan, knowing he can't go
back to Stuart, picks the mother (Denise Black) of Stuart's friend Vince (who's
cool with Vince being gay) to give him shelter ... but when Stuart finds Nathan
there, he all of a sudden feels strangely attracted to him again, only Vince
feels pretty much fed up witht he situation, realizing he is the butt of things
again ... Though having a tragic undertone (with the funeral &
all), an interesting to funny episode.
