A Mother's Support in Self-Discovery
Simon Did you know?
Emily I knew you had a secret. I mean, when you were little, you were so carefree. But these last few years, more and more, it's almost like I could feel you holding your breath. I wanted to ask you about it, but I didn't want to pry. Maybe I made a mistake.
Simon No. No, mom, you didn't make a mistake.
Emily Being gay is your thing. There are parts of it you have to go through alone. I hate that. As soon as you came out, you said, "mom, I'm still me". I need you to hear this. You are still you, Simon. You are still the same son who I love to tease and who your father depends on for just about everything. And you're the same brother who always compliments her sister on her food, even when it sucks. But you get to exhale now, Simon. You get to be more you than you have been in a very long time. You deserve everything you want.
Unrequited Love and Misunderstood Intentions
Leah You are insanely stupid, Simon. I was never in love with Nick. I was in love with you!
Simon Look... we're us.
Leah Yeah, well, sorry. I've been trying to tell you. That night I slept over, I was trying to tell you. You wanna know the funniest part? It's that all these years, you being so picky with girls, I thought that maybe it was because you might like me, too. And then, you know, you told me I should go out with Nick and I realized you were just never gonna see me that way. I can deal with you being gay, Si. But you set me up to get my heart broken when you thought I was in love with Nick and that just makes you cruel.
Navigating Personal Struggles and New Beginnings
Simon I've been meaning to ask you about your parents. I just didn't want to say anything when we were actually in the restaurant. I wasn't sure if you wanted to talk about it.
Abby Yeah. No, I don't mention it a lot because it kind of messes with my image.
Simon What kind of image?
Abby The girl who's excited to start a new school senior year. The girl who's life didn't just end, like, three months ago, who's angry and sad all the time. Girl who still believes in love.
Nostalgia for Childhood Traditions vs. Adult Expectations
Simon Do you miss trick-or-treating?
Leah What, you mean instead of, like, going to loud parties, pretending to like the taste of beer and feeling too self-conscious to dance?

Facing the Consequences of Truth

Simon It's too late. No, there's people who've already seen it, so, it doesn't really matter. It's true. I'm gay.
Nora So what are you gonna do?
Simon I don't know.
Nora You could deny it.
Simon Why the hell would I deny it, Nora? I'm not ashamed of it!
Missed Signs of Understanding in Friendship
Jack How long have you known?
Simon Like, I really started to get it when I was around thirteen.
Jack Four years. Four years of eating dinner together, four years of going to the movies together, four years of walking Bieber together. I'm sorry. I shouldn't have missed it. All those stupid jokes...
Simon Well, I know you didn't mean em.
Jack It doesn't matter, I shouldn't have missed it. But in case the message got lost somewhere I just want you to know that I love you. And I'm really proud of you. I wouldn't change anything about you.

Simon You don't know what grindr is, do you?
Jack It's facebook for gay people.
Simon Not what it is.
Unexpected Connections Between Friends
Simon Hey, I'm sorry, Ethan. None of this ever happened when just you were out.
Ethan You know what they say, one gay's a snooze, two's a hilarious hate crime. You could've told me you were gay.
Simon I guess I didn't think we had very much in common.
Ethan (scoffs) You're telling me, Simon. It's not like your all-hoodie wardrobe rocks my world.
Simon I don't know. Maybe I was jealous. You've been out since you were sixteen. It always seemed so easy for you.
Ethan Easy? Are you kidding me? My mom still tells my grandparents about all the girls I'm dating when we go over to their house for dinner, every sunday. She says it's cause they're old and religious, and it's just easier that way. I don't know, maybe that's true. But you should hear her voice when she talks about the girls.

Gray Five.
