Fridays on NetflixQueer Eye Quotes
Jonathan: This haircut just aint quitting being real handsome. Yes, you sexy beast! You feel like comfortable in it?
William: I feel comfortable. Yeah, I feel a little bit of confidence. So...
[Jonathan is speechless]
Jonathan: I just got chills in my triceps.
This place is incredible. And, I think everyone involved has grown and been touched this week. I know I have. This has been a life-changing week for me. And, you know, it’s just God’s AMAZING grace that we stand here in this beautiful facility today. Before he gave the vision, he already made provisions cause he knew you guys would wind up together, even before you were formed in your mother’s womb. He knew you. I’m just... I’m thankful.
Tammaye
Tammye: I said, “But I need to ask you for your forgiveness, because Mama has not loved you unconditionally.” And, you know, he looked at me and said, “Mama, I forgave you a long time ago.” And, I said, “No! I need to hear you say that.” I said, “Because, the Bible that I read tells me that if I have wronged someone or mistreated someone to ask their forgiveness first and then I’m free to go to the Father.” And then I told him at that point, “Your Mama has your back.”
[Cuts to confessional]
Antoni: She thought her faith told her to judge somebody who was gay, but she chose to see past that and she saw the individual. She saw the person who her son is and she changed her mind. She says that it was a religious experience, but she made that choice. Not all parents do that.
Picture it! You click on Netflix and you turn on that Bob Ross collection they have on there now. So peaceful. You’re taking a little gander; you see a little side street. You’re like, “Let me go down there.” You come upon a little horse farm. Some little birds living up there, and some little hay over there. That’s Tammye’s house. Gorgeous!
Jonathan
Jonathan: All the issues you had, the biggest one that you had was your lack of self-love and your self-care.
Bobby: But you’re an amazing father. You are an attentive, sweet kind husband. You really are, you’ve shown us that this week. You deserve all those things right back.
Bobby C: I know that this stuff is still there; that the stuff that makes life too much...is still there. But I’m not afraid of it. I didn’t know what to expect from you guys being here this week. I knew that people were going to invade our lives. One of the things that we prayed about, we said, “We want to use this opportunity to open up our lives to other people. We want you guys to come to our house and felt love and accepted.”
[Antoni wipes away tears]
Bobby C: Growing up the way we did, homosexuals were not accepted, and they still aren’t in a lot of church environments. But in the Camp family, they are. In our hearts, they are. And we want you guys to know that you were loved here. And you’ve taught me so much about loving somebody that’s come from a different background than me, that has a different world view than me, that has a different story. But you’re people and hopefully my kids have seen it...that we’re all people.
[Wiping away tears]
Jonathan: Cool, thanks for making me cry on camera. That’s pretty cool.
[They all laugh]
You know, I got to tell you, yesterday when we went to your house, and when they started planning your car, I was totally shut off. The perception right now, especially between Black people and cops, is...it’s tension. When Henry pulled us over, I immediately started freaking out. I really thought that, you know, this was gonna be that incident where I was gonna be dragged out of the car. My kid did not want to get his license because he was scared he was going to get pulled over and shot by a cop.
Karamo
Jonathan: I notice a little bit of dryness on your cheek.
Tom: That’s my Lupus.
Jonathan: Okay, let’s talk about that a little. One thing I know about Lupus is that it’s all about SPF. Like, we have to protect your skin from UVA and UVB rays because sun actually can cause inflammation and flare ups for people with Lupus.
Tom: Right...
[Cut to Jonathan’s confessional]
Jonathan: How you take care of yourself is how the world sees you, and he’s not taking care of himself.
Bobby: We are about to pull in. What’s our mission today with Tom?
Jonathan: We’re gonna dust off these Christmas ghosts’ pasts of these relationships, we’re gonna sort out his closet, we’re gonna get him cuter, we’re gonna get him looking good, we’re gonna get the house fixed up. We’re ready! We cannot wait. Am I right?
All: Yes!
