Synopsis by Josh Ralske

Pride Weekend is coming up. Emmett (Peter Paige) plans to join the parade with legendary drag queen Godiva, who is suffering from AIDS. When Godiva passes away on the eve of the parade, Emmett is understandably distraught, and he isn't sure how to best honor her memory. Deb (Sharon Gless), who calls it "The High Homo Holidays," is marching with her PFLAG group and is upset, as always, that Michael (Hal Sparks) won't march beside her. He's worried about being seen by somebody from his job, but Deb's guilt trip gets him to agree to march. Then he finds out that a group of people from work is going to the parade to check out "the freaks," and he changes his mind again. Lindsay (Thea Gill) is less than thrilled when Leda (Nancy Sakovich), Mel's (Michelle Clunie) old girlfriend from her wilder days, shows up for the parade, reminisces about old times, and gets Mel to drag out the motorcycle she's had stashed away in the garage. Ted (Scott Lowell) wants to experience a little sexual freedom, but he's surprised when a hot young stud (Lee Rumohr) picks him up at Woody's and fulfills his wish. When Justin (Randy Harrison) accompanies Emmett to the AIDS hospice where Godiva died, he runs into a familiar and very unwelcome face. Brian (Gale Harold) works on a gay-themed wine cooler campaign for a homophobic CEO (Rodger Barton).
