Now that I've had a few hours of sleep-
Again, there is no reason at all for Justin to go to NY. I'd feel a lot better had one been given. For God's sake, all they had to do was drop a mention of a fellowship or something. But anyway, assuming that he had an actual reason to go I don't believe for a second that it would hurt the relationship between Brian and Justin. It's only a five hour drive. And, as has been pointed out, it's always been Brian's dream to move there. I firmly believe that he would move there within a year. "You go, do whatever work you can with no space and no money and no food and working your ass off to come up with 1/4 of the rent on a tiny stidio apartment in Brooklyn and I'll wrap up things here and be along soon."
Parts of 513 were great, parts were ludicrous. Pack up and move to Canada in a matter of weeks or months? Or however much time passed in CL time? No way. Took a friend of mine years and proof of a good income.
Most of the scenes between B/J were great. So emotional. The only one that didn't ring true was Brian thinking cuddling was going to make Justin happy. WTF? Brian himself gave the definitive 'Justin Loves Cock' speach. Brian standing up to Remson was great and I'm pretty sure Remson isn't taking his account elsewhere.
I wanted to knock Lindsay, Melanie and Michael into next week for the cruel way they treated Brian and the total lack of understanding his character. But that was pretty much the way they treated him the entire series so it was actually consistant. "You'll always be young and you'll always be beautiful"??? Get the fuck over your juvenile fantasy asshole. No he won't always be young and always be beautiful. Let him grow up! Tell him to get his ass in gear and go be with his partner, whom he loves. But that wouldn't make you happy would it? So fuck Brian's happiness. As long as he's up on his little pedestal for you to worship.
If they had just inserted a couple of more scenes, a few more lines of dialogue it could have been a good episode and a good ending. Instead it makes no sense at all. It was some really great scenes strung together to make a crappy epsiode. Totally what we should have expected given the limited talents of Cowlip.
