 He
 did
n
’
t
 want
 to
 
hide
.
 So
 I
 said
,
 “
Okay
,
 how
 are
 we
 
going
 to
 do
 that
?”
 And
 he
 said
,
 “
Why
 don
’
t
 we
 just
 write
 
a
 letter
?”
 This
 was
 after
 family
 and
 close
 friends
 
already
 
knew
.
 But
 just
 to
 let
 everyone
 else
 know
.
 So
 I
 suggest
ed
 that
 we
 write
 
a
 letter
 and
 put
 it
 on
 Facebook
 so
 
e
verybody
 
would
 know
.
 So
,
 that
 was
 kind
 of
 what
 we
 did
.
 But
 there
 were
 
already
 
rumor
s
 and
 things
 that
 were
 
being
 said
 about
 my
 son
.
 People
 were
 say
ing
,
 “
Are
 you
 gay
?”
 and
 there
 was
 
bully
ing
 
going
 on
 
because
 he
’
s
 not
 
a
 super
 masculin
e
 kid
.
 It
 
would
 be
 
really
 hard
 for
 him
 to
 fake
 
being
 straight
.
 So
 we
 thought
,
 you
 know
 what
,
 the
y
’
re
 
already
 
asking
,
 there
 are
 
already
 
rumor
s
 and
 
bully
ing
,
 
why
 don
’
t
 we
 address
 it
 and
 dem
y
s
tify
 the
 whole
 situation
 and
 say
,
 “
Yea
h
,
 he
’
s
 gay
,
 he
’
s
 
a
 fantastic
 kid
,
 he
’
s
 
wonderful
.”
 Let
’
s
 set
 the
 tone
 for
 how
 we
 
expected
 him
 to
 be
 
treated
,
 and
 then
 move
 on
 to
 the
 next
 conversation
.
 That
 was
 kind
 of
 our
 intention
.
 
Once
 
e
verybody
 
knew
,
 initial
ly
 
e
verybody
 was
 
really
 nice
 and
 say
ing
,
 “
We
 still
 love
 you
,”
 but
 as
 time
 
went
 one
 I
 think
 the
 “
We
 love
 you
”
 part
 was
 for
g
otten
 and
 the
 “
Oh
,
 my
 go
sh
,
 he
’
s
 gay
”
 
s
tuck
.
 Val
enza
:
 Your
 own
 family
,
 you
 said
,
 is
 
conservative
.
 Has
 your
 relationship
 with
 your
 
siblings
 and
 parents
 
changed
?
 
Montgomery
:
 A
 little
 bit
.
 It
’
s
 been
 
a
 
journey
,
 I
 think
,
 for
 all
 of
 
us
.
 I
 think
 the
 best
 way
 to
 
describe
 it
 is
 
when
 we
 found
 out
 that
 Jordan
 was
 gay
 it
 was
 like
 some
body
 
told
 
us
 that
 we
 had
 to
 learn
 
Mandarin
 Chinese
 
overnight
.
 It
 was
 the
 most
 
foreign
 thing
 ever
 and
 we
 had
 to
 learn
 it
 
overnight
 to
 help
 our
 son
.
 And
 other
 people
 can
 take
 
a
 year
 or
 
a
 
decade
 and
 it
 can
 take
 
longer
 for
 them
 to
 get
 it
,
 but
 
their
 love
 and
 devo
tion
 and
 support
 to
 Jordan
 has
n
’
t
 wave
red
 even
 
a
 little
 bit
.
 But
 for
 some
 it
’
s
 
taken
 
a
 little
 
longer
 but
 the
y
 love
 him
 100
 percent
.
 
They
Input:
 feel
s
 
secure
 in
 that
 environment
,
 that
 
would
 be
 helpful
 to
 you
 later
 on
 
when
 you
 have
 to
 make
 choice
s
 about
 
t
weak
ing
 your
 scene
.
 Need
s
 the
 global
 
truth
 that
 the
 world
 is
 full
 of
 
grace
,
 I
 think
 that
’
s
 solid
.
 I
 think
 that
’
s
 good
 and
 paradox
 is
 
a
 word
 that
 we
 can
 
often
 get
 
confused
 about
.
 A
 paradox
 is
 just
 an
 absurd
ity
.
 It
’
s
 
when
 you
 —
 what
’
s
 
a
 good
 example
 of
 
a
 paradox
?
 I
 don
’
t
 
really
 need
 to
 give
 one
.
 I
 think
 
e
verybody
 know
s
 what
’
s
 
a
 paradox
 is
.
 It
’
s
 
when
 you
’
re
 in
 
a
 situation
 that
 seem
s
 ridic
ulous
.
 It
’
s
 like
 
going
 to
 the
 department
 of
 motor
 
vehicles
 for
 nine
 hours
 just
 so
 the
y
 can
 take
 your
 picture
 and
 you
 
could
 have
 
taken
 it
 with
 your
 cell
phone
,
 that
’
s
 the
 paradox
.
 It
’
s
 absurd
.
 
Okay
,
 so
 the
 next
 thing
 on
 the
 
fool
s
cap
 is
 the
 controll
ing
 idea
 theme
.
 Now
 ob
viously
 this
 is
 the
 
ghost
 in
 the
 machine
 of
 your
 story
.
 This
 is
 the
 thing
 that
 you
 want
 if
 some
body
 said
 to
 you
,
 “
Well
 what
 is
 that
 book
?
 
Why
 did
 you
 write
 that
 book
 Tim
?
 What
 did
 it
 mean
 to
 you
?”
 this
 is
 the
 answer
 that
 you
 
would
 give
 them
 and
 what
 you
 have
 
written
 is
 “
True
 family
 is
 not
 blood
.
 It
 is
 
those
 that
 are
 there
 for
 you
 in
 your
 to
ughes
t
 times
 and
 you
 must
 be
 
willing
 to
 sacrific
e
 everything
 for
 them
”
 that
’
s
 
pretty
 solid
.
 That
’
s
 
a
 
really
 
interesting
 theme
 but
 
technical
ly
,
 the
 controll
ing
 idea
 is
 an
 expression
.
 It
’
s
 
a
 formula
ted
 
sentence
 so
 what
 you
 have
 to
 do
 is
 put
 in
 the
 value
 that
’
s
 at
 
stake
 in
 the
 story
 and
 
explain
 how
 it
 has
 
changed
.
 So
 in
 this
 case
 and
 in
 the
 
traditional
 controll
ing
 idea
,
 
generic
 controll
ing
 idea
 for
 the
 
thriller
 is
 that
 hero
 sacrific
ed
 
themselves
,
 tyr
an
ny
,
 
justice
 preva
ils
 
when
 
heroes
 sacrific
e
 
themselves
 for
 the
 good
 of
 everyone
