When Nate's father overhears a telephone conversation between his son and his son's boyfriend about plan to come out to him, Nate's father lets him know it's okay by leaving him this note which reads...
Nate,
I overheard your phone conversation with Mike last night about your plans to come out to me. The only thing I need you to plan is to bring home OJ and bread after class.
We are out, like you now.
I’ve known you were gay since you were six, I’ve loved you since you were born.
- Dad
PS Your mom and I think you and Mike make a cute couple.
