EPISODE TWO RECAP / STRAIGHTJACKET
11 – Like Father, Like Son
Claude Balls makes a mysterious phone call in the cemetery, planning to get rid of all the gays on the Bouleavrd. He hears screaming coming from a grave and digs Monica out. Due to the Rice Fever serum she has no memory of her identity. Claude names her Voluptua and decides to have her dance at his new burlesque club, The Golden Pussy. He calls Alexis and tells her to go ahead with their plan. She holds a vial marked “pheromones”. Meanwhile, Father Paul’s eyes glow red, possessed by a demon planning to destroy the world. Freddy brings Jason to the Tea Bagger and introduces him to Alexis, reuniting mother and son. She is disappointed to learn that Jason, like all the men in her life, is gay. At the same time, Drake is still having sex with the other Jason (neither knowing that they are father and son). At Top of the Morning, Skylar and Jordan toast their new success by hanging Cha-Ching’s arm over the door. Skylar continues his anti-psychotic medication and Tony worries about Trevor’s desire for revenge. Trevor wanders the Boulevard in tears over Tony’s betrayal. He visits his old cellmate Klaus only to find he’s escaped. He then runs into old flame Dr. Logan de la Pena, who has moved to Toluca Lake having found work on the Boulevard. Alone, Trevor begins to binge drink and vows to avenge Cha-Ching’s death.
12 – Tea and Apathy
Father Paul tells the demon possessing him that “The Key” has been found as St. Michael’s prepares for the annual Church Fair. He thanks Alexis for working and joins her for a cup of tea at her booth. Alexis reads his tea leaves and foretells that he will raise the dead. Claude and Voluptua visit Alexis’s booth. Claude confirms his business deal with Alexis and introduces Voluptua. Alexis reads her tea leaves and foretells that Voluptua will die again. Jason visits Alexis’s booth and informs her that Freddy has left town on sabbatical for further religious studies. Alexis offers to fix his homosexuality, which he declines. Tony visits the booth next and learns that he has a nephew. Tony complains that his life has lost its zest since he fell in love with Trevor, gave up being a hitman, and became a bartender. Skylar and Jordan visit the booth and announce that they are getting married. They ask Alexis and Tony to stand at their wedding. Alexis takes the opportunity to pour pheromones in Skylar’s tea. Drake finds Alexis, furious that she tried to kill him. She diffuses the situation by informing him that their son is alive and offers to introduce him at dinner.
13 – There Goes the Groom
Everyone on the Boulevard attends Skylar and Jordan’s wedding. Tony observes Drake and Jason having sex in the church closet. Trevor arrives drunk, brandishing a gun. Tony attempts to apologize, but Trevor won’t listen. As the wedding begins, Trevor hides behind a statue. Voluptua feels she recognizes Skylar, but doesn’t know why. Alexis points out Jason to Tony, who is shocked to see it’s the boy he caught Drake having sex with. Fr. Paul becomes possessed when he sees Jason—the Key—sitting in a pew, as he starts the ceremony. Just before Skylar can say “I do”, he cries out in pain and transforms into a heterosexual (a la a werewolf) in front of everyone. Skylar calls Jordan some nasty names and leaves. Trevor drunkenly shoots at Jordan but Tony dives in front of the bullet.
14 – Honeymoon from Hell
At Top of the Morning, the now straight Skylar hits Jordan and leaves for good. At the hospital, Logan informs Alexis that Tony will survive. Despite getting shot, Tony still loves Trevor. Tony reveals he took the bullet to protect Jordan because they used to be lovers. Alexis says she’ll let Drake live now that their son is alive, that is, until Tony tells her he caught Drake having sex with Jason. Jordan visits Tony in the hospital and the two reminisce on old times. Jordan informs Tony of Skylar’s strange behavior. Tony suggests they investigate at The Golden Pussy. Claude welcomes Skylar to The Golden Pussy and gives him some free time with Voluptua as a gift. Claude separates them however, when Skylar attempts to remove Voluptua’s cat mask. Claude gives instructions to his new employees Matt and Ben. Klaus is seen carrying a Nazi box out of a shack in the woods of Argentina. Trevor continues to drink and is excited when Matt and Ben arrive at Bottoms Up. They’ve come to evict him under the direction of the piano bar’s new owner: Claude Balls.
15 – Sins of the Father
Drake arrives at the Tea Bagger for the family dinner. Alexis secretly puts pheromones in his tea and accuses him of knowingly having sex with their son. Drake claims to be having sex with someone else. Outside the Tea Bagger, a possessed Fr. Paul bludgeons Jason and drags him away. The Jason Drake is sleeping with arrives and everyone is confused. Jason chalks it all up to his army of clones, one of which must still be alive. Drake reacts to the pheromones and becomes straight, punches Jason, and leaves. Jordan and Tony go to The Golden Pussy to look for Skylar. Claude calls Alexis requesting more heterosexual “soldiers”. Trevor bursts in, demanding his nightclub back. Voluptua starts to regain more of her memory and Claude sends her to the basement. Tony and Skylar get into a brawl after Skylar attacks Jordan and Trevor. Fr. Paul, still possessed, ties Jason up in the basement of St. Michael’s.
16 – Sarcophagus of Love
Claude reveals his plans to turn the gays of the Boulevard straight with Alexis’s home-brewed teas, buy up their clubs, and drill for the oil underneath. He worries that Skylar might know Voluptua’s true identity, so he locks her inside a prop Egyptian sarcophagus in the basement. At Top of the Morning, Tony, Trevor, and Jordan pass blame around for their current predicament. Claude arrives to evict Jordan and Tony, announcing that Skylar has signed over the deed to him in a fit of heterosexual rage. The gays watch as Matt and Ben bulldoze Top of the Morning. Trevor, Tony, and Jordan take up temporary residence at the seedy Motel 69. Jason and Alexis discover clues outside The Tea Bagger leading them to believe that Fr. Paul kidnapped the clone Jason. In the church basement, Fr. Paul wrestles with his demonic possession. Drake goes to the Golden Pussy and joins Skylar and a French stripper named Michele Durand for some very naked sexy time.
17 – Under Cover in The Golden Pussy
Tony, Trevor, and Jordan don fake beards and attempt to infiltrate the Golden Pussy. Upon arrival, they realize that many of the gays on the Boulevard have been turned straight. Claude deposits Cha-Ching’s arm—his souvenir from the destruction of Top of the Morning—in the basement and tells Voluptua to stop screaming. Inside the sarcophagus, Monica’s memory returns to her. Trevor tries striking up a conversation with Matt and Ben, who demand Trevor prove his heterosexuality by having sex with the stripper Giselle Artois. Tony takes one for the team and performs oral sex on her to save Trevor. Alexis pays a visit to Fr. Paul at St. Michael’s, demanding to know where he stashed her son. Jason stops her from harming Fr. Paul, who is confused at the sight of a second Jason. At the Golden Pussy, Jordan blows their cover when he sees Skylar with the strippers. Jordan pleads for Skylar to come home, but instead Skylar knocks him unconscious. Upon learning that Monica has regained her memory, Claude brings Dr. Logan de la Pena over to perform some elective surgery on her. Trevor disguises himself as a stripper and seduces the secret of the pheromone-laced tea out of Skylar.
18 – Jumping to Conclusions
At Motel 69, Tony and Jordan reconnect while licking the wounds from their spurned lovers. Trevor returns to tell Tony the secret but spies him having sex with Jordan instead. Claude and Logan switched Monica’s face with a one from a body in the morgue and gave her a minor lobotomy to keep her memory in check. They throw the body with Monica’s face on it off the roof to make it look like she committed suicide. Alexis seeks help from Drake, who wants nothing to do with her now that he’s straight and quits the police force. Alexis overhears Michele tell Giselle that she’s pregnant and doesn’t know who the father is—either Skylar or Drake. Believing that the baby Michele is carrying should be hers by rights, she offers Michele a “cure” for her morning sickness. Michele and Giselle decide to hide the pregnancy from Claude. In the basement at St. Michael’s, a possessed Fr. Paul demands to know who the other Jason is. The captured one claims to be a clone. Believing he has the wrong “Key”, Fr. Paul decides to use this Jason as bait. Still dressed as a woman, Trevor breaks into the Tea Bagger, where he finds the antidote to the heterosexual pheromones in suppository form. Fr. Freddy, recently returned to Toluca Lake, discovers Trevor and the break-in while looking for Jason.
19 – Slippery When Wet
Trevor flees before Alexis comes home, who lies to Freddy, saying Jason is at the Observatory. Michele and Giselle arrive at The Tea Bagger and Alexis prepares a special tea that promises to quickly get Michele through her morning sickness. Alexis is shocked to learn that Michele and Giselle are actually lesbian lovers. Fr. Paul telephones Alexis, informing her that he has Jason. Despite their sexual marathon, Tony and Jason realize they both still love Trevor and Skylar. Claude and Logan survey the destruction on the Boulevard. Logan tells Claude that the police believe Monica Biltmore to be dead. Trevor disguises himself as a sexy nurse and administers the gay pheromone-laced suppositories to the men at The Golden Pussy. After Skylar is cured, he and Trevor have sex. Skylar asks that Trevor never tell Jordan, who is already plotting his next blackmail scheme. Michele quickly starts to show signs of her pregnancy. On the Bouelvard, Tony and Jordan discover oil derricks where the nightclubs used to be. The gays run out of the Golden Pussy as Claude switches the derricks on. The oil turns out to be run-off lubricant form the past twenty years, collecting under the Boulevard. Claude fumes that Alexis lied to him about the oil as a lube-soaked orgy breaks out in the streets. A reunited Skylar and Jordan join the orgy. Tony is furious to learn that Alexis was the one turning the gays straight. Freddy can’t find Jason at the Observatory.
20 – Everybody Hates Alexis
Alexis and Jason arrive at St. Michael’s to save the other Jason. Fr. Paul warns her to leave before he is possessed again. In the basement, the tied up Jason warns Alexis that it’s a trap. Fr. Paul reveals that he has been possessed by the demon goddess Elohcin, also known as Sin. He grabs the free Jason at knifepoint and declares that his sacrifice with unleash Elohcin on Earth. Freddy arrives too late to warn Jason, who are now both claiming to be the clone to avoid death. Fr. Paul demands Alexis tell him which of the two the real Jason is. The rest of the Boulevard arrives to scream at Alexis, who declares she did everything because she’s tired of being a fag hag. Trevor informs Alexis that Drake is the only one who is still straight and missing. Alexis chooses the Jason that wasn’t kidnapped and stabs him over the altar. A portal to Hell opens in the statue of Elohcin’s vagina and sucks Alexis inside. Jason realizes that Alexis knowingly killed the clone to save them all. Fr. Paul reveals he is finally free of possession, just as Klaus and Elohcin (who is now in corporeal) walk the Boulevard.
