One thing you should never do to a cop down south is shave off his moustache. Tammye talking about her struggles with reconciling her religion and her son is the sort of message so many parents need to hear. The guys didn’t do much apart from give her a new haircut and a cute dress to wear to church, however they helped repair the relationship between her and her gay son. The doyenne of Gay, Georgia, Tammye is a woman who gives until her heart can’t give any more. But Skyler learning what it’s like to blend masculine and feminine energies to create a whole and unique person is a journey that is worth watching again and again. The Fab Five did a number on it and spiffed up his look, though it seems like the improvements didn’t take. There was no worse apartment than Skyler’s, the trans man whose house was festooned with more rainbow flags and LGBT paraphernalia than all the gift shops in Provincetown. The coda to the episode is that he ends up reuniting with the ex-wife who still had his heart. Not only did they expose him to gay people for the first time, they imbued him with the confidence in his appearance and himself that he had lost. The Fab Five made his space nice, gave him some new clothes and shaped his beard, but the real impact here was shaping his life.
There is nothing sadder than a lonely guy smoking out of the door of his basement room while drinking whiskey and Mountain Dew. But it’s these five guys showing him he can be masculine and openly gay that really makes this episode memorable. Not only did the crew give him a new haircut and wardrobe, they also changed his apartment from a schlubby, unusable mess into a cute crashpad. AJ is a (hunky) guy who hasn’t come out to his family despite the fact that he has a boyfriend. If this episode doesn’t make you cry then you should get one of those dry-eye medications.
