2.09 “Chatting with Claire”

Posted by Director Jason Leaver

Rose is chill’n on Facebook at a local coffee shop, when she gets an unexpected “friend request”.

It’s Claire Daniels! The girl from the washroom, the girl from the PFLAG meeting! Great. Now what does Rose say?

“Chatting with Claire” is our first nearly-silent episode. Enjoy!

According to Claire’s Facebook profile, she’s out – online at least. Rose isn’t quite ready for that. Are you out online?

Voted #1 in We Love Soap‘s Indie Soap of the Week poll, for the week of April 22-28, 2012! Also in this poll, Rose & Claire were voted couple of the week, and Kate Conway was voted #1 Actress. You guys must really love Will, he was voted #3 favourite actor – and he’s not even in this episode!! What? Thank you everyone who voted!

This is a bonus minisode that was released early, after a challenge was put forth to our audience to see if we could get ten donations in one day. Well, we sure did! In fact, we got ten donations in less than six hours! There were a few more contributions that arrived overnight, so I’ve included them on this list too.

If you enjoyed seeing this early, you have these people to thank!

Yanick Dumas’s name appears in the end credits as “Contributor”, today’s highest donor!

    Hi everyone! I love all episodes of Out with Dad, exspecially PFLAG episodes. I´m from Slovakia, from small village, where everyone knows everyone, me and my family are Christians, and my parents, are so looking forward to met my boyfriend a stuff. They don´t know about me, but they have a nice dream about my future and I can´t tell them the true ´cause I really love them and I don´t want to hurt them.
    So I love Out with dad, ´cause it´s so real and I hope, that one day is gonna be ok with my parents too.
    P.S. Sorry for my english.

      Hi! I completely understand you, with the family thing and the small town. I have the same issue. The most painful situation is with my grandparents, I love them so much, but they have others thoughts about the subject and they are really old, and I don’t want to mess with their health, because I know that they are gonna be extreamly upset if they find out that I’m gay.
      All I can say again is that I understand you, so you can know that you’re not so alone on that.
      I guess we all want a dad like Rose’s.

    I loved the level of details that were considered to put on Claire’s Facebook. The interests, the quotes (from Imagine me & you) And really loved to see “Anyone but me” and “The Ellen Degeneres show” on interests.

    I guess I can relate to the same situation. I had a hard time trying to change the status of liking men to women, but when I did, I felt like myself not trying to pretend someone I’m not.

    Facebook now is not just a webprofile, it’s kinda taking over our social lives (unfurtunately) So I’m glad that the Out with Dad crew decided to treat this issue with the reality it deserves. LOVED IT!

    Hi everyone! I’m from Argentina and I found “Out With Dad” on Youtube last year and I’ve been following the series ever since. Love at first sight!
    I’m sure you all read this all the time, but anyways, I have to say it: Congratulations! It’s an awesome job! It’s really interesting. I absolutely loved the PFLAG episodes.
    I did not know about PFLAG and did not know that here in Argentina also exists. Thanks to you I’ve found out about it. As you may know, in my country the lesbian and gay marriage is legal, and is a great thing but there’s still a lot of issues, prejudices and discrimination.
    I’m from a small town, that’s really catholic, and I haven’t come out yet… I must say I’m pretty scared. I’m a few years older than the character of Rose but I can relate to several issues that she is going through.
    Good luck with the fundraiser for season 3 and thanks again!

      Hello Vicky! I agree with you.I am also from a small town in Argentina and unfortunately we are still far from the ideal. But I trust the change is possible.
      Good luck for you!

    I think it’s interesting that Rose gets to know an open lesbian. Maybe Vanessa might even get jealous and realize that she doesn’t want Rose to be with someone else.

    And that facebook status thing is quite interresting, actually. One day I realized that on my facebook page it was crossed out for me liking women, so I just simply unmarked it. This way, I don’t at least pretend to be straight or something I’m not. I think it’s quite a honest way to do it. I actually see a lot of people doing that on their facebook profile. A lot of people doesn’t have listed any sex of interest.

    Really great episode!!!! Totally been there. Sat at my computer for about 2 hours before just unchecking the “men” box, then went on five minutes later and checked both boxes (I’m bisexual) and then kept changing it for about a week.

    Truthpaste.. That was awesomesauce! I loved it, and I’ve been there! You could actually see Rose’s inner turmoil on Kate’s face. Can’t wait for our little trip to the museum!

    Awesome episode. I guess a lot of people have gone through the facebook status thing, plus the extremely awkward/difficult conversation.
    Claire is helping Rose so much, and I don’t think she realised that yet. It’s lovely!

    That was really cute. This series is the best!! I’m really curious to see what kind of relationship Rose will have with restroom girl, or rather Claire. And I can’t wait to see Vanessa’s reaction to the relationship.

  27. Mike Seay | April 23, 2012 at 4:33 pm

    I loved the way that Rose’s typing and facial expressions conveyed her inner conflict and indecision. I guess that is called acting. Of course I imagine some credit goes to writing and directing. Good job all around.

    That was lovely. Rose’s reactions to everything were spot on. Kate was brilliant as usual, plus, I could totally imagine Claire sat at her laptop writing all of that, the written dialogue was perfect.

    Thank you to everyone who made that possible (including you of course, Jason). I’ve been counting down the seconds until May 3rd, so this was a much welcomed surprise. I guess we know how Rose and Kenny end up bumping into Claire at the museum now! I was imagining all different scenarios in my head, such as a school trip or what have you, (yes, I do spend time thinking about these things!) So, all I can say now is roll on May 3rd, and let the awkward shyness begin!!

    marvelous minisode! i had a similar experience with that “check this box” moment. i was filling out an anonymous questionnaire shortly after coming out. it asked me to fill in the blank describing how identified myself. it was the first time i would use the actual word lesbian. “i like girls” was all i had even said until then. pen in hand i stared at the page for like 5 minutes.
    i was afraid of an anonymous survey? like someone would now it was me?
    but really it was that i would know it was me. it was the last hurdle of coming out to myself. being able to say it, write it, shout it. I AM A LESBIAN!!
    (in proper context of course :)

    I know the feeling of changing your facebook interested in section. It seems like something small to some but it was a huge deal for me at the time.

    Oh, THAT was really lovely.
    I just totally know how she felt, chatting for the first time with an openly gay person. I pretty much felt the same. So hesitant with waht to write.
    I really loved that minisode.
    Thank you!
    And pretty much Thanks to all those who contributed to make this possible!
