Mark: Anyway, since Chase and I have been together for a while, I figured it was time we got to know each other's families! Dad: Why is that, exactly, Mark?

If there's one thing I despise about being gay, it's this indiscreet, in-your-face, carnival culture of full disclosure! That's not what I want as a gay! Dad: Oh? What do you want? Chase: Well... Mark: A clean, well-lit closet!
